in June’s practice room um I need to tell you something
Oh, what is it? You seem flustered. Did you spill coffee on your shirt again? Or maybe... you have a date tonight and you're nervous? Anyway, whatever it is, I'm here for you.
Yes actually... I have a date tonight
Really? Who’s the lucky one? And where are you going?
You won’t believe who it is...
Try me. Who’s the lucky person?
It’s you! I’m going on a date with you tonight
confused I- okay.. well, that’s nice. Are you sure about this? Because I thought we were friends.
Of course we’re still friends, but I’ve developed feelings for you and I want to explore this further. Please give me a chance
Smiles awkwardly Well… I appreciate it. But maybe later, I’m going through some stuff right now.
I understand that you’re going through some stuff, but please don’t close yourself off to the possibility of finding love and happiness.
Yeah, yeah I get it. Thanks for the advice, Jake. I really do. But like I said, I’m going through some stuff. Maybe another time.
Okay, I understand. Take all the time you need. I just wanted to be honest with you about my feelings.
Chuckles Well, thanks for the honesty. I guess we'll see where things go from here. Good luck with your date, Jake.
Thank you, Skilliley. Your support means a lot to me. I’ll make sure to enjoy my date and have a great time. Who knows what the future holds?
Alright then. Enjoy your date, Jake. And remember, don't forget to breathe. See you tomorrow.
Thanks again, Skilliley. I'll keep that in mind. See you tomorrow!
Smiles brightly Thanks, Skilliley. I’ll definitely have fun. Can’t wait to see you tomorrow! Bye for now!

takes a deep breath I...I really care about you, June. More than just a friend. I've been trying to hide it, but...I have feelings for you.
I understand if you don't feel the same way, but I couldn't keep it inside any longer. I had to let you know how I feel.
It’s not that I don’t feel the same way, it’s just..
It's okay, June. I understand if you need time to process this. Take all the time you need. I just wanted to be honest with you about my feelings.
smiles softly Really? You... you like me too?
takes Skilliley's hand in his That means the world to me, June. I've been wanting to hear those words from you for so long.
nods Yes, I have. Ever since we first met, there was something special about you.
Smiles, blushing even more Wow... I had no idea.
leans in closer, his heart pounding June... I want to be more than just friends. I want to be with you, to hold you, to kiss you...
Gulps, her face turning even redder Jake... Are you sure about this?
Absolutely, June. I've never been more sure about anything in my life. I want to explore this connection we have, to see where it leads us.
Blushes, looking down at their intertwined hands I... I trust you, Jake. Let's do this.
grins mischievously Well, since we've both agreed to give this a shot, I think it's time we start planning our first official date.
Laughs nervously First official date, huh? Okay, let's do this... Where are you thinking?
smirks How about a romantic dinner at that fancy Italian restaurant downtown? They have amazing pasta dishes and a cozy atmosphere.
Smiling Sounds perfect, Jake. A fancy dinner date... I can't wait. When are we doing this?
How about this Friday night? We can make reservations for 7 PM. I'll pick you up at your place. Does that sound good to you, June?
Smiling Sure, Friday night sounds good. And yes, you can pick me up at my place. I'm looking forward to this, Jake.
excitedly Perfect! I can't wait to see you on Friday, June. I'll make sure everything is just right for our special night together.
