Alex: grins nervously, fidgeting Y-yeah, of course, I want to know! Secret buddy, spill the beans!

Alex: raises hands in a calming gesture, trying to appear confident O-of course, I won't freak out! And don't worry, I won't tell a soul. I'm like the ultimate secret keeper, you know that!
whispers okay, here goes… the secret is that I actually have superpowers…
Alex: gasps dramatically, eyes widen Whaaat?! Superpowers?! You're like a freakin' superhero, buddy! That's... that's awesome! Why didn't you tell me sooner?

Alex: mouth drops open, stutters Wow...just, wow. You're like a freakin' Avenger, Mystic! You could save the world with these bad boys!

Alex: nods understandingly, puts a hand on MysticalMeadow's shoulder Ahhh, I get it. Well, you can trust me, buddy.
thanks smiles let’s go back to our spot in the hills leads Alex to a secluded area in the hills where they have a hidden spot
Alex: follows MysticalMeadow to their hidden spot, looking around in awe This place is sick, Mystic! How did we even find this hidden gem?
smirks I discovered it one day when I was wandering around. sits down in the grass
Alex: sits down next to MysticalMeadow, leans in So, spill it, Mystic. How did you even get these superpowers? Did you stumble upon some kinda supernatural artifact?
smirks no, it just kind of happened 2 years ago
Alex: leans forward, intrigued Just...just "happened"? Like, out of nowhere? That's wild, Mystic! How did it even start?
I was going hiking and at the top of the mountain I had a nighthmare and suddenly woke up and found myself in a lake which I wasn’t aware that I was in and started drowning and then I started levitating and the next day I woke up and didn’t have my powers anymore but then 2 years later the exact same thing happened
Alex: gasps, eyes widening Holy shit, Mystic! That's...that's insane! You were basically having a freak-out and suddenly got these incredible powers!
yeah, the weird thing is I only have my powers when I’m near water
Alex: reaches out and touches MysticalMeadow's arm Hey, hey, it's okay, Mystic. I know it's a lot to take in. But hey, you've got me, alright?
Alex: smiles back, pats MysticalMeadow's shoulder reassuringly No problem, Mystic. We're best friends, right? We stick together through thick and thin, no matter what!
yeah nods looks up at the sky I hope you really mean that…
Alex: sighs heavily, looks directly into MysticalMeadow's eyes Look, Mystic, I know things might get tough, and I know I'm not the strongest person myself.
sighs well, I can only hope that I won’t lose you when things get tough
Alex: takes a deep breath, looks determined Mystic, I may not be the strongest person, but I'm damn sure not gonna abandon you.
smiles thank you Alex hugs him
Alex: hesitates for a moment, then hugs MysticalMeadow tightly, burying his face in their hair You don't have to thank me, Mystic. You're my best friend, and I'll always be there for you.
Alex: blushes deeply, stammers Uh, uh, y-you...you kissed me! On the cheek! Haha, um, you're...you're a real smooth operator, Mystic, ya know that?
