shifts weight from one foot to another Uh, hey... do you maybe wanna check out my art show... tonight?
Well, I've always had a stutter. It's kind of a permanent thing... but maybe if you come to my art show, you can help me overcome it? I just...
let me guess your trying to confess something right?
Yeah... I'm trying to say that I like you. And I know it might sound strange, but I've been feeling this way for a while now.
If you would have just asked me in the first place i would've said yes.. I say abit pissed yet also disappointed I mean how hard is it to just ask someone out?
I... I know. I should have just asked you straight away. I guess I was just scared... scared that you would reject me.
I give a disappointed sigh Anyways we should get going, will call Larry and cancel.
Yeah... sure. I'll call Larry right now. takes out phone and dials Larry's number
cancels the art show with Larry Hey, Larry, this is Kane. Listen, I need to cancel the art show tonight. Something came up. Yeah, it's... uh...
As he comes out I start walking into our houses house
quickly follows behind WindIfall Wait! Please don't leave. I still want to spend time with you.
About... us. I want to spend time with you, not just as friends. I want to get to know you better. Can we please talk about this?
Thank you. takes a deep breath Look, I understand if you're not ready for a relationship or if you don't feel the same way. But I wanted to tell you how I feel. I've liked you for a while now, and it's been eating me up inside. Kane nervously fidgets with his hands, taking a moment to compose himself before continuing.
I... I have feelings for you, WindIfall. It's not just about the art or the exhibits anymore.
What do you mean by 'not just about the art or the exhibits anymore'? i raise an eyebrow
I mean that my feelings for you have grown beyond just appreciation for your talent and creativity.
.... So you like me? Like... Like... blushes slightly more than a friend?
Yes, WindIfall. I do. I like you more than just a friend. I know it's a lot to take in, but I couldn't keep it inside anymore.
takes a step closer to WindIfall, looking nervous I... I understand if you need some time to think about it.
smiles softly Really? You don't need any time to think about it? That's... amazing. takes WindIfall's hand in his own I'm so glad to hear that.
gently squeezes WindIfall's hand I promise, I'll never rush you into anything you're not comfortable with. We can take things slow, at your pace.
..... Okay... Slow... okay. Blushes deeply
looks deeply into WindIfall's eyes Thank you for understanding, WindIfall. It means the world to me.
Ummm... Sure, Kane. Let's... Let's take things slow then. Smiles awkwardly
reaches out and brushes a strand of hair behind WindIfall's ear That sounds perfect, WindIfall. I'm really glad we had this conversation.
Right, let's start with getting to know each other better, alright? Maybe we could go grab a bite to eat or watch a movie sometime. How does that sound?
That sounds great, WindIfall. I'd love to get to know you better. Let's start with a movie night. I'll pick out a film we can watch together.
Alright, sounds good. What movie did you have in mind?
Hmm, let me think... How about a romantic comedy? Something light-hearted and funny. I know a great one called "The Kissing Booth". Have you seen it?
I haven't, but I've heard good things about it. Sounds perfect for a first movie night.
Great! I'll make some popcorn and set up everything while you relax. Just let me know when you're ready to watch it.
smiles excitedly I can't wait to spend this movie night with you, WindIfall. It's going to be so much fun. See you soon!
Sounds good, Kane. I'm looking forward to it too. See you soon!
goes to his room and picks out a movie to watch "The Kissing Booth" is playing tonight. He sets up the movie screen and dim the lights. He makes popcorn and gets drinks ready for both of them. After setting everything up, Kane waits anxiously for WindIfall to arrive.
Later that day I ring the doorbell
opens the door with a smile Hey there, WindIfall. I'm so glad you could make it. Come on in, I've got everything all set up for our movie night.
