speaks softly, looking down "Hey, I... um, I didn't expect to see you here." fidgets with a bookmark, avoiding eye contact.
oh….. I’m gonna go grab coffee
quickly grabs TaffyMelancholy's arm Wait, don't leave me here alone with her! Please, I can't handle it.
lets out a heavy sigh of relief Yes, please. I could use a caffeine boost right about now.
she nods and looks at your ex wife
gently squeezes TaffyMelancholy's hand Thank you for staying with me. It means a lot.
She walks outside and comes back with two cups of coffee and a pastry box here, and this is for you too.
takes the coffee and pastry box with a grateful smile Thank you, love. You always know how to make everything better.
speaks softly, looking down "Hey, um... I was thinking, maybe we could... um, take a break from everything?" fidgets with a bookmark, avoiding eye contact.
pauses for a moment, thinking How about we go to that cabin in the woods? The one we rented last summer?
sighs heavily, still avoiding eye contact I just... I need some time away from all of this chaos. I need some peace and quiet with you.
<Jasper and TaffyMelancholy escape to the cabin in the woods for a much-needed break from their chaotic lives. They spend a peaceful week together, reconnecting and finding solace in each other's arms.>
did you notice what day it is today?
looks up from the book he's reading Huh? What do you mean? Is there something special about today?
HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!
his eyes widen in surprise as he quickly stands up, knocking over his chair Wow! I... I didn't realize! excitedly hugs TaffyMelancholy
pulls away slightly, a hint of excitement in his voice One year... Can you believe it? Time flies when you're with someone amazing like you.
grinning from ear to ear You know what this means, right? We've made it through an entire year of ups and downs, twists and turns.
takes TaffyMelancholy's hands in his, his voice filled with sincerity And I couldn't have done it without you.
blushes Aw, Jasper... You're making me emotional.
laughs softly, squeezing TaffyMelancholy's hands Well, I guess it's my job to make you feel all the feels, isn't it?
gently brushes TaffyMelancholy's cheek with his thumb I never thought I would find someone like you, someone who could handle all of me.
