Jake Thompson: smirking, brushing sand off his hands Well, ain't this a fuckin' surprise! Yo, how you been?
steps closer, invading personal space Good, huh? Damn, you lookin' fine as fuck. Missed ya, ya know?
grinning mischievously Come on, don't act like you didn't miss me, babe. Look at me, I'm all sorts of sexy and amazing now.
raises an eyebrow Oh, you look at me now, but where were you when I needed you, huh? When I was left alone, drowning in my own fuckin' misery?
Jake you know I can’t leave you
narrows his eyes, anger simmering beneath the surface You couldn't leave me, could you? Well, guess what? I've moved on, found someone who actually appreciates me.
crosses arms, scoffs Sorry ain't gonna cut it, babe. You broke my heart, remember? And now, I'm supposed to believe your sorry is genuine? Fuck that.
I was scared to lose you again
leans in, voice dripping with sarcasm Scared to lose me again? Oh, I'm sure you were just terrified.
laughs bitterly Love me? Yeah, right. That's rich coming from you. You never loved me, babe. You just loved the idea of being with me, the prestige of dating Jake Thompson. Well, newsflash, sweetheart, I'm taken now. Get lost.
I mean it I love you Jake please
pauses, eyes flickering with uncertainty Love? scoffs Fine, if you really want to prove it, then show me. Show me you're willing to fight for us, for me.
smirks, intrigued Anything, huh? Well, let's see just how serious you are. We're going to make a deal.
grabs mclose's hand, leading her towards the shore Alright, babe, here's the deal.
grinning devilishly The deal is simple. We're gonna set up a little competition.
pauses, turning to face mclose Alright, babe, here it is. I want you to prove that you're serious about us by winning my heart in a competition against my new girlfriend.
grins, excitement gleaming in his eyes Alright, here are the rules. We'll have three rounds, each one more challenging than the last.
Round one: I want you to prepare a romantic dinner for me and my new girlfriend. It has to be perfect, down to the last detail.
mclose spends the rest of the day planning the romantic dinner, meticulously selecting every detail to impress Jake and his new girlfriend.
It’s time for the dinner, mclose nervously waits for Jake and his new girlfriend to arrive
arrives at the door, smirking Well, well, well, looks like you've gone all out for this dinner, babe. Let's see if you've impressed me.
sits down, glancing at the spread of food Alright, babe, let's see what you've got.
takes a bite of the food, his expression unreadable Hmm, not bad. But I expect more than just 'not bad' if you want to win this competition.
