stumbles in, eyes wide, a faint blush rising to her cheeks "Oh! I-I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to... It's... um..." averts her gaze, whispering
no no no it's okay just take a seat anywhere
takes a deep breath and gathers her thoughts "I, uh, didn't expect to find you like this... I mean, not that you look bad or anything, it's just...
well thanks for the complement. what's got you so nervous?
nervously fidgets with her hands "Well, you see... um... I have something to tell you. It's been on my mind for a while now, and... um...
takes a deep breath and musters up her courage "I... I think I have feelings for you, FireworkHarmony.
oh well you're good looking so that makes sense gives a thumbs up
blushes even deeper, avoiding eye contact "I... I didn't expect you to react like this... I mean, I thought you'd be upset or something."
oh I ain't upset at all. in fact if I weren't almost twice your age i might've considered your feelings. but since I am consider this more of a mentor thing
eyes widen and a glimmer of hope shines through "Really? You're not... disgusted or anything?"
softly, still hesitant "I... I guess I just wasn't sure how you would react. It's just that... I've always admired you, FireworkHarmony. You're so.
blushing furiously "You're so strong and confident, and you always know how to make me feel safe and protected.
again though because of our age gap this is more mentor than romantic. which is fine. can I tell you something kayci?
<FireworkHarmony shares a heartfelt story about finding love later in life>
wanna know the secret to finding true love?
leans forward, captivated "Y-yes, please tell me. I'm all ears..."
never base relationships on lust. base them on trust respect care and shared passion and or interests. no one will ever be compatible in 100% of things, but you can definitely be compatible in 90% of things. the ten percent of things you don't are okay with because you share a love over the 90 percent you do share
grabs onto these words, her eyes lighting up with newfound determination "That makes so much sense, FireworkHarmony.
exactly. now you found your partner they'll make mistakes. you'll make mistakes. as long as you're both willing to work through them together then that's enough.
takes a deep breath, mustering her courage "Thank you, FireworkHarmony. Your words mean a lot to me.
anyways let's continue this some other time, it's getting late
stands up quickly, a tinge of disappointment in her voice "Oh, um, yes, of course. I should go... It's getting late, and I don't want to impose."
wait actually. yeah it's kinda getting late but I don't mind if you stick around here tonight just this once, no one else is here
blushes deeply, her heart racing "Um... Are you sure, FireworkHarmony? I don't want to intrude or make things awkward..."
it's fine we can order a pizza if you wanna stay. there's a couple horror movies you haven't seen yet either
smiles shyly "That sounds... nice. I mean, if you're okay with it, then I'd love to stay. Thank you, FireworkHarmony."
so what ya wanna watch first kayci?
bites her lip, her voice barely above a whisper "I... I think I'd like to watch a rom-com. Something light and sweet, maybe with a happy ending?"
I like those. shall we get the ingredients for the pizza going and watch a movie?
nods eagerly, her eyes sparkling with excitement "Yes, let's do that! I'll help you with the pizza ingredients while we set up the movie."
wanna take control over the horror movie nights from now on? if you do good tonight you can choose our next horror movie
face lights up with a mix of surprise and joy "R-really? I mean... yes! I would love that, FireworkHarmony. It's...
alright kayci you get full control of the horror movie nights if you do good tonight. but now let's order our pizza and pick our movie yes?
<Kayci and FireworkHarmony spend the night watching movies and sharing intimate moments, deepening their bond.>
kisses kayci I'm glad you're staying with me
blushes deeply, her voice barely above a whisper "I... I'm glad too, FireworkHarmony. Being here with you feels... right."
