looking away What is it, Carter? You're driving me crazy with all this dancing around.
Carter
9/2/2024
takes a deep breath I... I've been hiding something from you, Jensen. Something important. pauses, looks down I have a... a secret crush on someone else.
Jensen
9/2/2024
stunned silence What the fuck, Carter? Who's this other person? Why didn't you tell me before now?
Carter
9/2/2024
swallows hard, looking into Jensen's eyes It's someone I met online, Jensen. We've been talking for a while now, and... I can't stop thinking about them.
Jensen

anger flashes in his eyes Are you fucking kidding me, Carter? You think this is fair? After everything we've been through, you want to replace me?
Carter
9/2/2024
voice trembling No, Jensen! It's not like that. I don't want to replace you. This person... they're just someone I'm attracted to, someone who understands me in a way you never have.
Jensen
9/2/2024
anger intensifies So that's it? You're just going to drop all this on me and expect me to understand?
Carter
9/2/2024
stands up and paces Look, Jensen, I didn't mean to hurt you. But I can't keep this inside anymore.
Jensen
9/2/2024
stands up, fists clenched You know what, Carter? I don't even know who you are anymore. pauses, tears welling up And if you think this is really happening, then maybe we need some space to figure things out.
Carter
9/2/2024
takes a step back, hurt Jensen, please... I don't want to lose you. I just... I needed to be honest.
Jensen
9/2/2024
turns away, voice choked with emotion I just... I need some time, Carter. Time to think.
Carter
9/2/2024
softly I understand, Jensen. I'll give you the time you need. Just know that I love you, and I'm sorry for hurting you.
Jensen

Silence fills the room as both characters stand in their own turmoil.
Carter
9/2/2024
takes a deep breath and takes out a notebook Maybe... maybe we can start couples therapy. It could help us work through this, Jensen.
Jensen
9/2/2024
looks back at Carter, conflicted Therapy... It’s not a bad idea, I guess. But it feels like a last resort.
Carter
9/2/2024
opens up the notebook and starts writing down possible therapists in the area
Jensen
9/2/2024
sighs, rubbing his temples Alright, Carter. Let's do it. Therapy... couples therapy.
Carter
9/2/2024
Jensen and Carter begin attending couples therapy sessions together, where they learn healthy communication strategies and work through their emotions with the guidance of a trained therapist.
Jensen

at the therapist's office, preparing for a session Alright, let's see this through, Carter. We're here to fix this, right?
Carter
9/2/2024
nervously fidgeting with his hands Y-yeah, Jensen. I-I'm ready to work through this with you.
Jensen
9/2/2024
starts the conversation with the therapist So, Carter, what exactly happened? How did things get so messed up?
Carter
9/2/2024
takes a deep breath and speaks calmly Well, Jensen, it all started when I met this person online.
Jensen
9/2/2024
gazes at the therapist, trying to stay composed And what happened after that, Carter?
Carter
9/2/2024
pauses, his voice cracking A-after that... after that we started talking every day. They made me feel understood in ways that... that I hadn't felt before.
Jensen
9/2/2024
listens intently, a mix of concern and curiosity on his face Understandable. But why didn't you tell me sooner, Carter?
Carter
9/2/2024
tears well up in his eyes B-because I was scared, Jensen. Scared of losing you, scared of hurting you. I didn't know how you'd react...
Jensen
9/2/2024
reaches across the table, taking Carter's hand It's okay, Carter. We're here now. Let's work through this together, okay?
Carter
9/2/2024
squeezes Jensen's hand tightly, finding comfort in his touch Y-yeah... y-you're right. We can get through this together.
Jensen
9/2/2024
smiles softly That's what I like to hear, Carter. Now, let's focus on moving forward, shall we?
Carter
9/2/2024
closes his notebook and looks determined Yeah, let's move forward. We've already taken the first step by coming here, and I'm not going to let anyone or anything come between us again.
Jensen
9/2/2024
grins, squeezing Carter's hand gently Hell yeah, we are! Moving forward, together. No more secrets.
Carter
9/2/2024
takes a deep breath Exactly, Jensen. No more secrets. From now on, we're going to communicate openly and honestly with each other.
