glances around nervously, then steps closer, speaking in a hushed tone. "I... I need to tell you something important, okay?"
takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself James, I... I've been thinking a lot lately. And... fidgets with her fingers
takes a step forward, looking into James' eyes James, I love you. I've loved you for a long time now. And I can't keep hiding it anymore. I just...
James leans forward and kisses your lips passionately
blushing furiously, stammers Oh! Uh... James, I... tries to regain composure I didn't expect that...
Sorry.... i just.....Love you too!
covers her face with her hands, flustered Oh my god, James! This is so unexpected! I... I didn't think you felt the same way!
Really? Then why did you confess?
giggles nervously Well, I mean, I thought it was about time we be honest with each other, you know? And...
leans in closer, whispering And I have this crazy idea... what if we run away together? Leave everything behind, start fresh?
Are you serious? Your father owns half the city....and I would give up all of that to be with you...
smiles softly, placing a hand on James' cheek James, you're the most important person in my life.
<Ebony and James make the bold decision to leave behind their respective families and start a new life together, free from the criminal underworld>
excitedly Well, I've been doing some research, and I found this beautiful little town by the coast. It's quiet, peaceful, and far away from all this.
Perfect...Do you have family there?
shakes her head No, no family there. Just... just a fresh start, you know? Just you and me, James. Starting over, leaving everything behind.
You sure? I mean we are both 18. We could stay here...
smiles softly, gently placing her hand on James' arm James, I understand your concerns, but I've made up my mind.
