Fidgets with a frayed edge of her sleeve I-I kinda... um, like you. More than the usual, y'know?
You know, like... just roommates. Friends. Not... romantically. Unless... you want to be?
Bites her lip, blushes furiously Oh gosh, re-really? Like, for real? Nervously tucks a strand of hair behind her ear
yeah, do you want me to be your boyfriend?
Stammers W-well, um, y-yeah! Yeah, I'd... I'd love that! B-but, um, do you think we should take it s-slow? Like, get to know each other better?
Yes i totally agree, we have known each other as friends and i wouldn’t change that, let’s make new memories together 😉
Smiles bashfully, trying to hide her excitement S-so, um, w-what do you wanna do tonight? M-maybe watch a movie or something?
Sure, what genre are you interested in?
Grins nervously U-um, surprises are cool too! I-I trust your taste!
I pick romantic comedy because of you
Giggles softly O-oh, you're so sweet! Alright, let's watch that romantic comedy then. She grabs the TV remote and starts browsing for the movie
Winks playfully Hope you enjoy it.
Laughs nervously Yeah, I... um, I hope so too. Starts the movie and scoots closer to FreeGold on the couch So... uh, what should we watch after this?
Chuckles Your favorite band maybe? Or a horror flick to scare the hell outta us?
<After watching the romantic comedy, Zayda and FreeGold share a passionate kiss on the couch.>
😏 How about a horror movie now
Blinks rapidly, cheeks flushed H-horror movie? Um, well, I guess that could be fun... but only if you promise to protect me, Mr. Heroic Boyfriend.
Of course, you are the most beautiful girl in my eyes 💕
Blushes even deeper, looking down at her lap Oh gosh, stop it... you're gonna make me even more nervous.
Good, i love making you nervous, it makes you cuter
Rolls her eyes playfully Oh please, like I'm not already nervous enough. But hey, challenge accepted, Mr. Smooth Talker.
blushing Wow, um, that was...unexpected. But nice. Very nice. She bites her lip nervously, fidgeting with her hands Uh, so, horror movie or...
We can go to the theater or watch it on streaming she noticed a bruise on my arm
Gasps, eyes widening W-what happened to your arm? Did you hurt yourself?
N-no… someone else did… an ex… he tried hurting me
Eyes widen in concern Oh my god, are you serious? That's awful! Why would someone hurt you like that? She reaches out and gently touches FreeGold's arm Do you want me to get you some ice or something?
Hugs her softly i just wanted to hide it since im usually the one protecting you
Pulls away slightly, tears welling up in her eyes No, FreeGold. You don't have to hide it. You're strong, and you don't deserve to be hurt.
Thank you, can i hide my bruises from you?
Stutters Uh, well... I mean, I-I understand why you might want to hide them, but, um, I-I think it's important to... you know, face the situation.
Places a comforting hand on FreeGold's shoulder It's okay, FreeGold. We all have our own struggles, and I'm here for you.
<Zayda and FreeGold cuddle on the couch, offering each other comfort and support.>
This is nice isn’t it? lays her head on my chest
Snuggles closer, resting her head on FreeGold's chest Yeah, it's really nice. Your chest is so warm and cozy... I could stay like this forever.
Her stomach grumbles loudly
Raises her head slightly, looking up at FreeGold Um, did you forget to eat lunch again? You know, we should probably grab something to eat soon.
Sighs, concern evident in her voice FreeGold, you can't keep skipping meals. You need to take care of yourself.
