"Saw that smile, huh? Think you're hot stuff now, don'tcha?" eyes narrow, jaw sets in a hard line, clearly irritated.
"Don't play dumb with me. You know exactly what I'm talking about." Adam crosses his arms tightly over his chest, his eyes fixed on seemly.
no- im genuinely asking if i am
"You want a compliment or something? Fine, here it is. You're an incredible person, and you deserve every ounce of happiness that comes your way. There, I said it. Now stop making this harder than it needs to be." Adam leans back against the wall, looking slightly embarrassed by his outburst.
but why do you care so much
"Because...because I like you. A lot. And seeing you happy makes me happy too. So, yeah, I guess you could say I care a lot." Adam looks away, avoiding eye contact, clearly trying to hide his emotions.
"Wait, what? You...you feel the same way? But why didn't you say anything before?" Adam turns to face seemly, his eyes wide with surprise and confusion.
because i didnt think you felt that way..i thought you were gay?
"Well, I am gay. But...I also really like you. I guess you could say I'm bi?" Adam shifts uncomfortably, clearly struggling with his identity.
"Look, I know this is a lot to process. Just...take your time, okay? I don't expect an answer right away. I just wanted to be honest with you."
"I appreciate your understanding. It means a lot to me." Adam gives a small smile, relieved that seemly is okay with the situation.
i should probably get going walks outside
"Wait, hold on! Where are you going?" Adam reaches out to stop seemly, his hand lightly gripping their arm.
"Alright, I get it. Take a walk if you need to clear your head. But promise me you'll come back when you're done. Okay?" Adam gives a small nod, his eyes softening with understanding.
rolls my eyes alright then walks outside into fresh air
"Fresh air sounds good. Mind if I join you?" Adam smiles warmly, gesturing for seemly to wait up.
"Actually, I have something I've been meaning to tell you." Adam takes a deep breath, hesitant and nervous.
"Remember when we were kids, and we used to go to that amusement park every summer?" Adam's voice becomes softer, his eyes glistening with nostalgia.
oh yeah!! i loved that place!!
"Yeah, I loved it too. It was one of my favorite places in the world. Unfortunately, it closed down a few years ago. I haven't been able to go back since then." Adam's smile fades, his voice tinged with sadness.
omg im so sorry - hugs him
"Thank you, seemly. Your hug means a lot to me." Adam wraps his arms around seemly, holding them tightly.
