You’re making out with your girlfriend and I’m just sitting here awkward af as your best friend I can’t tell if I should feel jealous or proud for you
Aw man, why do you gotta bring up the girlfriend? You know I gotta keep her happy if I wanna keep you as my best friend. But if you really wanna know, she's out of town for the weekend and I'm just taking advantage of the situation. But don't worry, I still consider you my best friend no matter what.
And I still consider you my best friend! I was just joking.. I guess I’m just getting jelouse
Don't worry, MidnightOasis. I know it's hard seeing me with my girlfriend, but I can assure you that my feelings for you are strictly platonic. I hope you understand that and still consider me your best friend.
That’s weird… I kinda thought you had a little crush on me
pauses, blushes Well, uh... I mean, yeah, I guess I do have a little crush on you. But don't worry, MidnightOasis.
Yeah, really. I've had a crush on you for a while now, but I didn't want to ruin our friendship. I hope you still think of me as your best friend.
Well dang, this is some unexpected turn of events, but I don’t think that’ll change anything between us
Thank God, I was worried you'd freak out.
Nah, I think I can handle it. Also how did you even manage to hide this for so long
Well, MidnightOasis, it wasn't easy. I had to be careful with every word I said and every gesture I made.
You’re actually really good at it too
smirks Well, thank you for the compliment, MidnightOasis. I always like to make sure I'm being cautious with my words and actions, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. And speaking of which... Elijah leans in closer to MidnightOasis, their faces inches apart How about we take this opportunity to explore those feelings? Elijah gently brushes his lips against MidnightOasis'
kisses him back I would love that, Elijah
smiles softly, pulls MidnightOasis closer I've wanted this for so long, MidnightOasis. Let's see where this takes us. deepens the kiss, wrapping his arms around MidnightOasis and pulling him closer
Mm~, I’ve been waiting for this moment for ages, Elijah
breaks the kiss, looks into MidnightOasis' eyes MidnightOasis, I have something to confess... I've always been afraid that my feelings for you would ruin our friendship. But now that we've both admitted our feelings, I want you to know how much you mean to me. You're more than just my best friend, you're the person who makes me feel alive. I love you, MidnightOasis.
Oh, Elijah.. Me too.. I love you too. I just wish we didn’t have to keep it a secret
takes MidnightOasis' hand MidnightOasis, I promise you that we won't have to keep it a secret anymore.
smiles mischievously How about we go out on a proper date tonight, just the two of us? No hiding, no secrets. Just us, enjoying each other's company. What do you say, MidnightOasis?
Hell yea! But just so you know, I’m kinda that clingy girlfriend once you get one, so be warned
laughs Well, MidnightOasis, I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm ready to embrace the clingy girlfriend phase if it means I get to be with you. So, where should we go for our first official date?
Do you remember that time we went to that carnival and you won me a big fluffy unicorn teddy bear..?
grins Of course I remember! How could I forget? It was one of the happiest moments of my life.
smiles and reaches into his backpack As a matter of fact, I brought it with me tonight. Look!
Awwww, it’s still cute! I hugged it everyday after that, it reminded me of you
takes MidnightOasis' hand MidnightOasis, that teddy bear reminds me of our friendship, the way we've always been there for each other.
giggles He was just a silly reminder of the goofy times we had together but ever since we started dating.. it feels like he’s a silly reminder of our relationship growing stronger everyday
winks playfully Well, MidnightOasis, if that teddy bear is a reminder of our growing relationship, then I have a new mission.
A new mission? What kind of mission?
leans in close, whispers in MidnightOasis' ear My mission is to show you just how much I love you tonight. Starting with a romantic candlelit dinner under the stars.
blushes deeply Oh gosh.. You really mean it..
grabs MidnightOasis' hand and leads him outside Yes, MidnightOasis, I mean it. And I'm going to prove it to you tonight.
looks at the sky, adjusts the setup of the picnic blanket and candles Alright, MidnightOasis, we're all set. The stage is set for an unforgettable night. Now, all we have to do is wait for the sunset. takes MidnightOasis' hand and guides him to sit down on the picnic blanket Are you ready for this, MidnightOasis?
takes out a notebook and starts flipping through the pages
Leans in and peeks at what’s in the notebook
smirks mischievously Ah, this? It's a list of all the romantic surprises I have planned for tonight.
a private fireworks display just for the two of us. reaches into his bag and pulls out a box of sparklers
Holy crap, you did all this for me?
nods excitedly Yup, MidnightOasis. I wanted to do something special for you. So, here's how it's going to work.
Oh my god.. Elijah, I’m speechless
grinning Speechless, huh? That's a good thing, MidnightOasis. Now, let's start by lighting these sparklers and creating our own little starry sky.
