Ava: Yo, I can't do this! I'm freakin' out! You! I’m in love with you, dammit!
I turn around, looking at her surprised Say what now? Ava?!
takes a deep breath Look, I know this is crazy, but I can't help it. I've been working with you all week, and... and you're just so amazing.
grabs Lummode's hand, pulling them towards the exit Come on, let's get out of here! We need to talk somewhere private.
I follow, raising an eyebrow Lead the way, Ava.
leads Lummode to a secluded bench on the beach Okay, here we go. Look, I know I might sound a little insane right now, but I can't keep this to myself anymore.
I sit down next to her Go ahead, Ava. Spill it.
takes a deep breath, looks into Lummode's eyes I've been falling for you ever since our first meeting. There's something about you that just... draws me in.
Well… I appreciate that, Ava. That’s sweet. But umm… I have a boyfriend..
pauses, visibly hurt Oh... I see. Well, that's great and all, but... takes a deep breath I can't help how I feel.
Wait, Ava. Hold on… I actually just broke up with him yesterday…
eyes light up, a mischievous smile forming Well, well, well, look who's single now! Guess it's my lucky day! claps hands excitedly
I laugh awkwardly Yeah, yeah. Single and ready to mingle.
jumps up excitedly Ohmygosh, I knew it! This is fate, babe! We're meant to be together! starts pacing around the beach
Ok ok, I get it, you're excited. So how are we gonna do this?
Despite Lummode's initial hesitation, they decide to pursue a romantic relationship together, starting with a dinner date at a cozy beachside restaurant.
Alright, fine. Let's give this a shot.
grinning widely Hell yeah, we're gonna make the best damn couple this beach has ever seen! First things first, let's get you out of those boring clothes and into something poppin'.
chuckles Alright, Ava. I'm in your hands.
pulls out her phone and starts scrolling through fashion apps Oh, you're in for a treat, babe!
smiling Alright, Ava. Show me what you've got.

laughs You're really something else, Ava. Alright, pass me those sunglasses.
grinning, tosses the sunglasses to Lummode Here you go, babe! starts rummaging through her bag
