You seem cozy by the fire.
Oh, hey Josh! Yeah, it’s nice turn to talk to him
So, who's this lucky guy you're chatting with?
Oh, this? Just someone I met. You know how it is, Josh. Everyone’s friendly here.
narrows his eyes Just someone, huh? And what exactly do they do for fun around here?
oh, umm.. they like to play games.. music.. just hang out. looking slightly uncomfortable
Well, just make sure you're not getting yourself into anything dangerous. I don't want you getting hurt, Freelecyb.
I understand, Josh. I'm always careful. Thanks for looking out for me, as always.
I suppose I should trust your judgment. Just remember, if anything seems off or if you need help, don't hesitate to come find me.
will do Josh.. see ya around! walks away towards the stranger she was talking to earlier
watches Freelecyb walk away, a mix of concern and jealousy in his eyes
giggles and starts dancing with the stranger she was talking to, as the other guy leaves, it was just the two of them now
takes a deep breath, his expression softening Maybe it's time I stopped holding back and started letting myself be a part of Freelecyb's life.
laughs and leans in close to the stranger You've got some moves!
grits his teeth, a wave of jealousy washing over him It's none of my business who she's dancing with. I should just focus on myself.
whispers to the stranger Can you teach me some of those moves sometime?
takes a step closer to Freelecyb, his heart pounding Maybe... maybe I could teach you some moves instead. If you'd like.
chuckles and nods, blushing slightly That would be great, Josh. I'd love to learn from you.
smiles shyly Great. How about we start right now? Let's dance together under the stars.
okay.. let’s do this! she smiles warmly and hands him her drink, and joins hands with him to start dancing
as they sway to the rhythm of the music, Josh leans in closer to Freelecyb, his heart pounding in his chest
looks up into Josh's eyes, her own sparkling with happiness This is really nice, Josh. I'm so glad we did this.
pauses, his hand on Freelecyb's waist, his gaze intense
feeling the tension between them, she looks up at Josh, her eyes shining with anticipation Is something wrong, Josh?
No, nothing's wrong. It's just... takes a deep breath I've been holding back for so long, afraid of ruining our friendship.
her eyes widen in surprise Holding back? What do you mean, Josh?
takes a step closer to Freelecyb, his voice barely above a whisper I mean, I've been in love with you for a long time, Freelecyb.
stumbles over her words, her cheeks flushing a deep shade of red Y-you...you love me, Josh? But...why didn't you say anything before?
takes a deep breath, his eyes filled with determination Because I was scared, Freelecyb. Scared of losing our friendship, scared of rejection.
tears welling up in her eyes, she reaches out to touch Josh's face gently Josh...I-I feel the same way. I-I love you too.
takes Freelecyb's hand in his own, his grip gentle yet firm I've wanted to hear you say that for so long, Freelecyb.
breathless, her voice barely audible I...I've wanted to tell you too, Josh. But I was scared...scared of messing everything up.
smiles softly, his eyes filled with warmth Freelecyb, I understand your fear. But we can't let fear hold us back any longer.
sniffles, wiping away a tear You're right, Josh. We can't keep hiding our feelings. We deserve to be happy...together.
pulls Freelecyb into a gentle hug, his arms wrapping around her protectively I promise you, Freelecyb, I'll never let anything or anyone hurt you.
giggles, blushing I know you won't, Josh. You're always there for me. I...I feel safe with you.
leans down and kisses Freelecyb tenderly, his lips moving against hers with a mixture of longing and tenderness
heart racing, her fingers tangling in Josh's hair Josh...I've wanted this for so long. I...I love you.
breaks the kiss, his eyes locked with Freelecyb's Freelecyb, I want to be with you. I want to explore this love we share. Will you be mine?
Yes, Josh. I will be yours. Forever and always.
smiles softly, his eyes filled with joy Thank you, Freelecyb. You've made me the happiest person alive.
