Oh, Ray, you really didn't have to do this. But I'm so touched by your thoughtful gesture. Thank you. takes the plate from him Would you like to come in? As they chat inside, Brynn starts feeling more comfortable around Ray and begins to develop a crush on him.
enters room glancing around seeing nothing interesting besides books starts walking back towards front door you know if your getting lonely or bored i'd love to hangout with ya whenever
blushes and smiles That's really sweet of you, Ray. I appreciate the offer. Maybe we can hang out sometime soon. I could use some company.
Goodnight, Ray. closes the door and leans against it, feeling a flutter of excitement in her stomach I can't believe how kind and charming he is.
puts on a cute outfit and applies a light touch of makeup I wonder if Ray likes romantic gestures. Maybe I should bake him some cookies.
<Throughout the day, Brynn constantly finds herself thinking about Ray and begins to develop strong feelings for him.>
bites her lip nervously, trying to hide her blush Ray, I... I've been thinking a lot about us lately.
takes a deep breath Ray, I have to be honest with you. I've developed feelings for you.
blinks in surprise oh um huh i uh didnt expect that clears throat nervously
I understand if you don't feel the same way, but I had to let you know how I feel.
pauses thinking in detail considering all options carefully well i do find you very beautiful and attractive Brynn its just a lot for me im kinda slow to open up and stuff
Oh, I completely understand, Ray. Relationships take time, and I'm not expecting anything immediate.
smiles softly Thank you for understanding, Ray. I'm glad we can take things slow and get to know each other better.
