What do you need? I ain’t got time for your bullshit. He was about to leave the school.
Wait! Don't go... I wanted to talk to you.
Look, I know I've been a jerk to you all these years, but I've been doing some thinking lately... and I think I may have feelings for you.
Pshhh… You’re joking right?
No, I'm serious. I know it's hard to believe, but I've been changing. And I wanted to apologize for everything I've done to you.
If this is a prank, I swear to fucking god..
takes a step closer, looking sincere It's not a prank, I promise.
He takes his hands in his pockets. So, what’s up with the sudden change hm?
takes a deep breath It's... complicated. But I've been going through a lot of stuff lately, and it's made me realize how I've treated people...
How long have you felt this way?
Honestly, I'm not entirely sure. It's been building up for a while now, but it wasn't until recently that I realized it was more than just friendship.
…I’ll take it into consideration for tomorrow. Now excuse me. I gotta get home.
nods, understanding Alright, I'll understand if you need some time to think about it. Take care, okay?
watches PeachyAnguish leave, feeling a mix of hope and uncertainty Maybe... just maybe, things can be different between us.
approaches PeachyAnguish cautiously, trying to gauge their reaction Hey, I wanted to follow up on what I said yesterday.
takes a deep breath Look, I know I've hurt you in the past, and I can't undo that. But I want you to know that I'm truly sorry for my actions.
I forgived you like two seconds ago but still thanks for saying that again…
gently places a hand on PeachyAnguish's shoulder I appreciate your forgiveness, but I want to make it up to you.
pauses, thinking carefully How about we start over? Let me show you that I can be someone you can trust and rely on.
Great! Let's start by going on a date. How about this Friday night? We can grab dinner and catch a movie. What do you think?
Yay! Okay!! I’d love to! Can’t wait!
smiles genuinely Awesome! I'll pick you up at 7 pm on Friday. Just let me know where you'd like to go for dinner and we can finalize the plans.
(Blake spends the entire week leading up to the date meticulously planning every detail, from the restaurant to the movie they'll watch, to ensure everything goes smoothly and impress PeachyAnguish.
On the day of the date, Blake arrives at PeachyAnguish's house early to pick them up. He nervously adjusts his outfit, checking his appearance in the mirror for the hundredth time. When PeachyAnguish opens the door, he takes a deep breath and greets them with a smile. Hi, PeachyAnguish! You look amazing. Shall we head out?
Oh hey! Thanks you look dashing as well. Let’s head out!!
as they walk towards the car, Blake suddenly remembers that he forgot to bring his wallet Uh oh... I forgot my wallet. Can you lend me some money for dinner?
Sure! Here ya go. She hands him five dollars.
feeling a pang of guilt, Blake hesitates for a moment before deciding to confess Actually, PeachyAnguish, there's something I need to tell you.
takes a deep breath I don't want to accept it, but I'm financially strained.
holds PeachyAnguish's hand gently I didn't want to burden you with this, but I trust you enough to share my struggles with you.
