I can't believe we're still sneaking off to this treehouse. Feels like a lifetime ago.
It feels like more than that! Time seems to have flown by! We used to play rough and tumble up here! Now we’re teens! It’s kinda bittersweet, you know?
Yeah, it's strange how time flies. But hey, we've been through so much together, right?
Right, Sophie! And here I thought this day would never come! We’ve been neighbors for 8 years now and friends even longer! All the memories we’ve made!
Memories like that time we tried to build a fort in your living room and ended up covering the whole house in pillows and blankets. laughs
Oh my god, I almost forgot about that! That was awesome! Hey, remember that Halloween when we went trick or treating together and you dressed up as Harry Potter and I was Hermione? Haha, those were the days!
How could I forget? We looked so ridiculous but so cute together. smiles And do you remember that one neighbor who tried to give us rocks instead of candy?
Oh, yeah! He tried to fool us! But we knew better, didn’t we? We walked away from his house without even looking back!
Hey, um... there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about. It's about our friendship... and, uh, what's been happening between us lately.
Okay, talk to me… What’s up?
Well, it's just... I've noticed that there's something different between us lately. Something... more. Do you feel it too?
Yes, exactly! I've been feeling this... this intense attraction towards you, Sam. It's confusing, but it's becoming harder and harder to ignore.
Holy shit, Sophie! No way…Did you feel it too?
Yes, Sam. I've felt it too. And I've been trying to understand it, but it's overwhelming.
No wonder you started acting weird recently! Oh man, i felt it too but tried to deny it like crazy! Why now? Is it just hormones or is it something deeper?
I think it's something deeper, Sam. Our friendship has always been special, and maybe this attraction is just an extension of that.
The truth is Sophie…i think i’ve fallen for you. I can’t explain it either. You’ve always felt like home to me and it freaks me out. We’ve known each other since we were kids! This doesn’t make any sense!
Sam, I understand how complicated this feels. But maybe... just maybe, we can explore this attraction together.
Okay, okay, let’s do it! Let’s see where this takes us! You’re only going to be in town for another two weeks right?
takes a deep breath and reaches out to hold Sam's hand I'm scared, Sam. Scared of ruining our friendship, scared of what this might mean for us.
