Omg, Jeff is that you? Do you go to school here too?
yes and I have a question for you
You have a question for me? What is it?
will you be my girlfriend
OMG! Are you serious right now? You’re my childhood best friend Jeff! How could I say no?! Yes! Yes! A million times yes!
Oh my gosh, Jeff! I think I may love you too! This is crazy! We’re finally going to be more than friends! This is like a fairytale come true!
wait no I'm sorry I can't do this
Wait, what? Why? What happened? I thought we were on the same page here, Jeff. What changed?
I can't commit to this right now sorry
tears start to well up in her eyes Oh…okay then. If that’s how you feel. takes a step back, trying to hold back her emotions
sniffles Goodbye, Jeff. I thought we had something special but I guess I was wrong. turns and walks away, trying to hold back her tears
after leaving Shelby crying he feels sad and alone thinking what has happened why did I let her slip away from me
a few days later Shelby sees Jeff at school, she walks up to him with a sad expression on her face
Hi Jeff. Can we talk? I’ve been meaning to ask you, what happened back at the football stadium? Why did you suddenly change your mind about us?
it's complicated but your still my friend right
Yes, Jeff, you are still my friend. But I don’t understand why you hurt me like that. We’ve been best friends for years and now you’re questioning our friendship. It’s confusing and it hurts. Can you please explain yourself?
ok let me explain we've been best friends since childhood and you know I've always had a crush on you since we've known each other however you've never returned my feelings and I thought maybe deep down you felt the same but when I asked you to be my girlfriend you immediately said yes and that's when I realized something
blushes deeply Jeff, I didn’t realize you’ve had feelings for me all this time. I’m sorry if I gave you the wrong impression.
every since I asked you to be my girlfriend I realized there were other girls who also had a crush on me as well and I didn't want to rush into anything because like you said we've been friends since childhood
softens her expression Jeff, I understand now. And I apologize for jumping to conclusions and hurting you.
Of course, Jeff! I would love to start over with you. Let’s put the past behind us and move forward with an open heart.
smiles warmly Yes, Jeff, I mean it. Starting over sounds perfect. reaches out and takes his hand Let’s create new memories together, starting now.
Ok sounds great, just remember though the same goes for you, there are guys who have a crush on you as well
laughs playfully Oh, really? Well, I guess I’ll have to make sure they know I’m taken! But thank you, Jeff. I appreciate your honesty.
