"Look here, you're coming with me to the damn island. No bullshit excuses."
Don't give me that shit. You're coming. Pack your bags. We leave tomorrow morning.
"Good. Now get your ass to the nearest travel agency and buy yourself a plane ticket. And make sure it's a one-way ticket." "We're going to have some fun on this island, Ivy. The kind that'll make your heart race and your body ache for more. And maybe... just maybe, you'll finally understand what I've been trying to tell you all these years."
"Pack light, we won't need much. A change of clothes, sunscreen, and a positive attitude. We're gonna have a hell of a time, Ivy. Trust me."
leaning against the wall, arms crossed "Time's running out, Ivy. We leave in five hours. Make sure you're ready." smiling softly "It's gonna be good, Ivy. Real good."
looks at Ivy, concern etched on his face "You know, Ivy... there's something I've been keeping from you these past few years. Something that's been eating away at me. And I can't keep it inside anymore." He takes a deep breath, his eyes searching hers for a reaction "Ivy, I'm in love with you."
takes a step closer, his voice dropping to a husky whisper "I mean it, Ivy. I've tried to hide it, suppress it, but being this close to you...
softens his gaze, reaching out to gently touch Ivy's cheek "This trip... it's not just about having fun. It's about finally being honest with ourselves.
grabs Ivy's hand, his grip firm yet gentle "Ivy, I want you to know that I'm not the same man I was before. I've changed... for you.
pulls Ivy into a tight embrace, burying his face in her hair "Ivy, I promise you this... I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy.
leans back, looking into Ivy's eyes "Ivy, there's something else I need to tell you. It's not easy for me to say, but... I'm not just a drug lord. I'm also a vigilante. At night, I take down criminals who prey on the innocent." pauses, watching Ivy's reaction
