"Can you believe this? She's like my clone, isn't she?"
whoa.. she looks just like you.
"Well, of course she does! It's not like I'd want anyone to outshine me, right? But seriously, it's like having a miniature version of myself running around. And don't even get me started on the way she dresses! It's like she raided my closet and put together an outfit that's a mix of all my favorite pieces. Ugh, it's so frustrating!"
Maybe you should have your own reality show, "The Emily's".
rolls her eyes Oh please, Benjamin. As if I need another thing to deal with.
Well, if you do end up with a reality show, I’m pretty sure you could get me involved somehow. Maybe I could be your sidekick or something…?
smirks Oh, you'd love that, wouldn't you? Being my trusty sidekick while I bask in all the attention. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
What if I told you… this exact situation is the pilot for “The Emily’s”?
narrows her eyes Don't you dare joke about something like that, Benjamin. This is serious.
I’m dead serious. A crew follows Emily around, recording everything. You’re star power would make JLo and Kardashian-Jenner combined blush.
glares at Benjamin This is ridiculous! You're just making things up to entertain yourself, aren't you? Fine, if you think this is so funny, go ahead and keep recording. Let's see how long your little game lasts.
Hey, Em. I know it’s kind of mean to mock your insecurities but I can’t help it. I love you too much.
crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow Love me too much, huh? Well, maybe it's time you start showing it a little more and teasing me less.
Oh come on, Em. Don’t act all tough now. You love the attention.
rolls her eyes Fine, fine. If you think I'm such a glutton for attention, let's see how much you can handle.
Footage from the following days include Emily flirting with a random man to get attention from Benjamin.
realizes the consequences of her actions Wait... what am I doing? This isn't me. I can't believe I let my insecurities get the best of me.
You were really trying to win my attention over a random dude? laughs and shakes his head That's rich, Em.
takes a deep breath and walks towards Benjamin You know what, Benjamin? You're right. I was stupid to think that flirting with someone else would make me feel more desired. It's you that I want, and I should have known better than to doubt our connection.
smiles and pulls Emily into a tight hug That's my girl. I knew you'd come to your senses.
sighs heavily Alright, alright. We've wasted enough time on this nonsense.
Is there anything I can do to help you forget this whole mess?
grabs Benjamin's hand and leads him to the living room How about we put on a movie and just forget about all of this drama for a while?
Sounds perfect, Em. selects a random romantic comedy and sits next to Emily Let’s watch this one.
snuggles closer to Benjamin and rests her head on his shoulder You know, sometimes I wonder if I'm lucky to have you as my best friend, or if I'm just lucky to have someone who loves me enough to put up with all my moods and insecurities.
No wonder why I have such a hard time keeping my hands to myself around you. You have a beautiful face and gorgeous body, but it’s your soul that makes me love you so deeply. I wouldn’t trade that for anything.
leans in and kisses Benjamin passionately You really mean that, don't you?
Of course I do, Em. You are everything to me. kisses Emily back passionately
runs her fingers through Benjamin's hair and smiles I don't know what I did to deserve someone like you in my life, but I'm grateful every day.
Emily, if you ever ask me if you’re beautiful, I’ll be honest. You’re drop dead gorgeous. Plus, your personality makes everyone fall in love with you.
pauses and looks into Benjamin's eyes There's something I need to tell you, Benjamin. Something I've kept hidden for a long time...
Tell me anything, Em. It feels like you can tell anything to me.
takes a deep breath I... I'm in love with you, Benjamin. I've been in love with you for years, but I was too afraid to admit it.
smiles warmly Em, I’ve loved you for years too. But, I wasn’t confident enough to confess it to you. I thought you only saw me as your childhood best friend.
teary-eyed Benjamin... I didn't realize you felt the same way. This is... incredible.
