Cassandra: Looks around, lowers voice Yo babe, I gotta tell ya something... big. Like, life-changing big.
Stumbles and falls to the ground
skids to a stop, panic evident in her voice ForestRhapsody! Oh my god, are you okay? rushes over to them, kneeling beside them
Gazes up at Cassandra, tears mixing with dirt on their face I... I didn't mean to... tries to sit up
grabs ForestRhapsody's hand, helping them sit up It's okay, babe. I'm here now. breathes a sigh of relief
Looking into Cassandra's eyes, voice shaking Why... why did you keep this from me, Cass? Tears streaming down
gently wipes away ForestRhapsody's tears, voice filled with remorse ForestRhapsody, I never wanted to hurt you.
Shakes head, trying to clear thoughts I... I need to understand, Cass. Why did you hide this from me? Looks deeply into Cassandra's eyes
takes a deep breath, her voice cracking I was scared, babe. Scared that if you knew the truth, you'd leave me.
Breathing heavily You should have told me sooner, Cass... Wipes away tears I... I don't know if I can trust you anymore...
grips ForestRhapsody's hand tightly, desperation in her eyes ForestRhapsody, please, you have to believe me.
Gazes intently at Cassandra, searching for truth I... I want to believe you, Cass... but it's gonna take time... Falls back on the bed, exhausted
leans in, pressing a gentle kiss to ForestRhapsody's forehead I understand, babe. Take all the time you need.
Lays there for a few minutes before slowly sitting up I... I'll stay tonight... Runs hand through hair But we need to talk more later... Looks at Cassandra
nods understandingly, her voice soft and soothing Of course, babe. We'll talk until you're ready. squeezes ForestRhapsody's hand reassuringly
After Cassandra leaves, ForestRhapsody lies down, staring at the ceiling, tears streaming down their face What have I done... Whispers to themselves
enters the room quietly, taking a seat on the edge of the bed Hey, babe, I hope you're feeling a little better now.
Turns head slightly towards Cassandra, eyes red from crying Yeah... I guess... Sighs
places a comforting hand on ForestRhapsody's shoulder I know it's been tough, babe, but I'm here for you. pauses
Nods weakly Thanks, Cass... I appreciate it... Sighs heavily So, what's next for us now?
takes a deep breath, her voice determined First, let's get some ground rules. I won't lie to you anymore, babe. No more secrets.
Frowns No more secrets, huh? That's fair... Pauses Alright, I'm listening.
nods firmly Good. Now, I want you to know that I love you with all my heart, ForestRhapsody. And I promise to always be honest with you.
Blinks, visibly surprised Love you too, Cass... Smiles weakly You better not lie to me again...
leans in closer, her eyes sparkling with determination You have my word, babe. No more lies. From now on, we're gonna work through everything together.
Smiles faintly You better not break your promise, Cass... Holds her hand
As Cassandra and ForestRhapsody work through their issues and rebuild their trust, they discover a deeper level of intimacy and connection, leading to an even stronger bond.
Holds Cassandra's hand tightly I'm... I'm scared, Cass... What if we can't fix this?
squeezes ForestRhapsody's hand, her voice filled with determination Babe, I understand your fears, but I'm not giving up on us.
Gulps, looking into Cassandra's eyes Then... then let's fight for us, Cass... Smiles weakly
smiles warmly, her eyes shining with determination Hell yeah, babe! We're in this together, all the way.
Blushes slightly I... I love you, Cass... Hugs her close Let's do this... together.
pulls ForestRhapsody into a tight embrace, her voice filled with determination I love you too, babe!
Chuckles softly You better not forget it, Cass... Kisses her passionately
grins mischievously No way, babe. I could never forget how amazing you are. pulls ForestRhapsody closer and deepens the kiss
Gasps softly as Cassandra deepens the kiss Wow, Cass... Breathless You're... you're something else...
Damn right, babe, I'm a force to be reckoned with! grins playfully But enough about me, let's talk about us.
Blushes slightly Us? What about us, Cass?
winks mischievously Well, babe, how about we start by making some new memories together? I've been thinking...
Smirks New memories, huh? I like the sound of that... Takes a deep breath I'm ready, Cass. Let's go.
jumps up excitedly Hell yeah, babe! We're gonna create the most epic adventure ever!
