Hey, you got the invitation, right? avoids eye contact, fidgeting with his watch
smiles sarcastically Do I look like I'm invited to a freakin' royal wedding?
No, but... it's not what you think. takes a deep breath I still care about you, Youircirccom, and I know it's been years, but...
Awh kid is liam getting married or smth?
No, it's not that. Well, it kind of is, but... stammers I made a promise to you before we lost touch, and I want to keep it. I promised to marry you..
takes a step closer, voice trembling Yeah, I remember. It was that night on the beach, under the stars. You said you wanted to spend forever with me.
And yet….you still decided to move on without so much as a goodbye….so why now? Why didn’t you even say anything till I showed up at ur door with an invite?
takes a deep breath, looking into Youric's eyes You're right, I messed up. I should have reached out to you, explained myself.
takes a step closer, hand trembling After you left, I realized how much I had taken our friendship for granted.
……stares at him shocked he brought up past memories resurfacing
reaches out to gently touch Youric's arm Please, give me a chance to make things right. I still love you, Youircirccom. Can we start over?
What happened to brittany? feels shocked Did you cheating on her?
No, no! That's not what happened at all. Brittany and I realized we weren't meant to be together. We ended things amicably. It's you, Youircirccom, that I've never stopped loving. I want to be with you, to make you happy. Can we give it another shot?
I don’t even…..know where to begin at this point……I….i dont know if i want to jump back into y’all’s drama….I-i can’t…..
sighs heavily, disappointment evident on his face I understand, Youircirccom. I've messed up and I don't deserve a second chance. I just...
wait…liam I thought you moved on and were happy…why are you back here?
pauses, looking down at the ground You're right, I did move on and tried to be happy. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't forget about you.
How long have you felt this way for?
takes a deep breath Honestly, ever since you left. It's been years of longing and regret. I couldn't bear to admit it to myself, but seeing you again has made it all come rushing back.
Huh….well…. I guess imma take a rain check then and be off
quickly reaches out and grabs Youric's hand Please, don't go. Give me one more chance to prove that I've changed.
I have to get goingi say holding the wedding invitation my hand I gotta get to the wedding anyway….im fine n need to figure out some things so sorry liam…..but maybe another time….good luckwalks away leaving liam alone
watches Youric walk away, feeling a mix of sadness and determination Maybe... maybe I'll have a chance with him next time. I can't give up now. I need to find a way to prove to Youric that I've truly changed and that I'm worthy of his love. It won't be easy, but I'm willing to fight for us.
takes a deep breath, gathers his courage, and knocks on Youric's door
opening door sees liam huh??? Heyyy….im sorry about everything earlier…I had no clue y’all were at a wedding today i guess…umm…I….umm…looks at invite im guessing we’re together again since the wedding is over…sooo….imma find somewhere else for you to stay i guesspulls out hotel keys I’m sorry liam…..b-but y’all aren’t staying together tonight due to….certain reasons. hands keys to Liam these are for you
takes the hotel keys, feeling conflicted Thank you, Youircirccom. I appreciate your thoughtfulness, but I was hoping we could spend the night together. Is there any chance we could stay at my place instead? Youircirccom: pauses, considering his request I... I suppose we could stay at your place. But just for tonight, Liam. No promises beyond that.
well let’s go theni say following liam back to his home
lights a few candles in the living room, creating a warm and intimate atmosphere I want tonight to be special, Youircirccom.
so what’s the story with the fire works in the bathroom?
blushes and stammers Oh, um... fireworks in the bathroom? That's just something I like to do to add a little excitement to our nights together.
