Alexander: whispering Y-you knnnow, I don't w-want a lovelesss marriage!!!
smiling shyly Alex: Oh, um, yeah. Yeah, I know. You're right. I just... I don't want it to be loveless, ya know?
takes a deep breath Alex: You know, when I was younger, I used to believe in fairy tale endings. I thought I'd find someone who loves me for who I am, flaws and all.

why did you want marry my cousin?
shifts uncomfortably Well, uh...you see, your cousin and I have been close for a while now, and...I guess I just got caught up in the moment, ya know?
how far have you got with your cousin?
blushes deeply Oh, um...we haven't gotten very far, really. Just a few dates, mostly casual stuff.
smiles softly Haha, well, I wouldn't say I'm a super romantic, but I do like surprising your cousin with little gestures every now and then.
grinning mischievously Hey, speaking of gestures, I have an idea! Let's play a little game. I'll plan the most romantic surprise date for your cousin, and you can secretly help me make it happen. How does that sound?
excitedly Great! So here's the plan. First, I'll invite your cousin to a candlelit dinner at that fancy restaurant downtown.
my cousin is not big fan of candlelight
pauses, thinking Oh, okay. Plan B, then! How about I take your cousin to the amusement park at sunset?
