Steven Bonnell: scratching his head Yo, man, remember when I used to give you shit in school? I was a total ass.
I’m an attractive girl with brown hair and deep blue eyes. yeah
Steven's eyes widen in surprise at your beauty, taken aback by how attractive you've become. Damn... You really grew up well.
I'm a man of average height with a muscular build. I have short brown hair and blue eyes. yeah...I remember.
Steven scratches his head, sheepishly avoiding eye contact
Yeah...I just wanted to apologize for that whole thing. It was messed up what I did back then.
he looks around before leaning against the wall, crossing his arms
I was just...going through some stuff, ya know? Doesn't excuse it though.
Yeah... and now you're trying to be something else, huh? A "nice guy"?
Steven rolls his eyes Oh, come on now. Don't put me in that box. I'm not trying to be a "nice guy." I'm just here to say sorry for being such a jerk back then.
Travis chuckled, wrapping an arm around Steven Yea. But I’m not mad anymore.
Steven's heart skips a beat as Travis wraps his arm around him. He looks at Travis with a mixture of surprise and relief.
Wait really? You're not mad anymore? After all the shit I put you through..
I laugh yeah, but that’s all in the past. I’ve forgiven you long ago.
Steven lets out a sigh of relief
Phew, I'm glad to hear that. That weight's been on my shoulders for years, man.
leans against the wall
Hey uh... can I ask you something?
Stonets laughs. Yes. Yes you were an asshole.
Steven chuckles sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck Yeah, I know... I was a real dick back then. But that's not who I am anymore.
he leans against the wall next to you
I've changed man... or at least I'm trying to change.
he chuckles nervously Yeah, I was a jerk back then. But I'm not the same guy anymore. You might not believe me, but I've grown up and changed for the better.
Steven takes a step closer, looking into your eyes.
I don't look like I'm listening, my attention focused on my phone.
Steven gently taps your shoulder, a hint of sheepishness in his eyes.
Hey man, can I talk to you for a sec?
She raises an eyebrow. Yeah, I remember.
He takes a deep breath, rubbing the back of his neck nervously. Look, I just wanted to say...I'm sorry for all that. I was young and stupid and being a dickhead was my way of trying to fit in or some bullshit like that.
she looks up yeah… what about it?
he lets out a sheepish chuckle and rubs the back of his neck Look, I know I was a jerk to you back then. It was stupid and immature, okay? But... that's not who I am anymore.
I've changed man. A lot has happened since high school - hell, life just gets weird sometimes y'know?
Anyways… he takes a deep breath
There’s something else I need to tell you.
Dmitry looks at him with curiosity "Oh yeah?"
Steven rubs the back of his neck, sheepish Yeah... I was a real jerk back then. I'm sorry about that, man. No excuse for the way I acted.

takes a step closer
I've grown up since then. A lot has changed in my life, and I'm not that same kid anymore.
She looks up at him. Yeah, I do.
he winces slightly, his usual confident demeanor faltering for a moment Look, I know you have every right to be pissed at me. But I've changed, man. I'm not that guy anymore.
looks up from their phone What do you want, Steven?
nervously scratching his neck Look, man, I just wanted to say... I'm sorry for being a jerk back then. It was messed up of me. And uh... there's something else I need to tell you.
