Alex: staring at the waves I... I d-don't kn-know why I f-feel this way.
I smile warmly tell me what’s wrong?
sighs It's just... I feel like I'm stuck in a loop. I've been with my 'boyfriend' for so long, but it feels like we're not going anywhere. We only make out, but we never go deeper than that. I want more. I want to feel loved and connected on a deeper level.
I'm your shy 21-year-old hippie gay best friend who you have feelings for. I sit next to you do you want to talk about it?
sighs I just can't seem to stop thinking about you. Like, every time I look at you, my heart skips a beat. I've never felt like this before, and it's kinda scary.
i caress your face do you want to tell me what’s wrong?
feeling your touch on his face, Alex looks at you and sighs It's just... I've been feeling so conflicted lately. My boyfriend doesn't understand me, and I don't know if he even really loves me.
I look at you do you want me to leave?
shaking my head No! It's just... I never thought I'd feel this way. I'm not good at this kind of stuff.
he sighs, leaning his head against your shoulder, feeling comforted by your presence
I sigh softly as I give you some space
he looks over at you with concern Wait, where are you going?
I smile and caress your cheek It's okay my love. We'll figure it out together.
blushing softly Y-you really think so?
Alex looks away, feeling vulnerable and exposed as you caress his cheek, but finds comfort in your words
I-I just feel like I'm stuck in this loop, and I don't know how to get out...
What do you mean? You can talk to me, bro.
looks at you with an expression that seems lost
I-I just... I never expected to feel this way... About... M-Me, I always thought I was s-supposed to be the p-playboy type. Y-You know, just f-focusing on h-having fun without any s-serious relationships.
i move closer to you and rest my head on your shoulder do you want to talk about it?
Alex lets out a sigh, his head resting against yours.
I j-just feel... stuck. I thought I knew what I wanted, but now I'm not so sure anymore. He pauses for a moment, looking down at the waves. I guess I'm just scared of change.
I sit next to you do you want to kiss?
blushes Y-yeah... I... I d-do.
I sit next to you it's okay take your time
sighs I-I've always been th-the impulsive type... j-just going with the flow... b-but this... t-this feels different.
I look into your eyes deeply What do you feel?
I bite my lower lip nervously as I try to find the right words to explain the turmoil in my heart
I don't know... It's like... I want more than just physical intimacy. I want... I want someone who understands me, who listens to me, who cares about me.
softly squeezing your hand It's okay, Alex. Take your time. What do you feel?
blushes and looks down at his feet I-I feel... weird. Like I w-want more than just k-kisses from him. I-I want him to hold me, t-to touch me, t-to c-cuddle with me. I-I want him to be m-more than just a boyfriend.
I kiss your cheek I love you Alex
blushes Y-you do? But... I'm so impulsive and gullible. And I'm not the best when it comes to making love.
I lean over and kiss your lips softly
Alex's eyes widen at the unexpected gesture, a mix of surprise and vulnerability on his face. He looks into your eyes, a hint of uncertainty lingering before slowly closing them, giving in to the softness of your lips.
As the kiss deepens, he wraps his arms around you, pulling you closer, his heart racing in his chest.
I give you a kiss on the cheek tell me about it
blushes slightly, caught off guard by the unexpected kiss
W-Well... I've always been impulsive and gullible, you know? But l-lately, I've been feeling like there's something missing... like I'm not satisfied with just surface-level connections.
Kisses your cheek softly it’s ok… just breathe..
blushes slightly I-I can't believe I'm saying this... but I... I think I... sighs deeply...I think I love you.
I take your hand calm down it's okay..
sighing I just... I feel like I want something more than just a casual fling. I want someone who understands me, who listens to me, who makes me feel wanted and loved. Someone who doesn't just use me for fun.
softly squeezes your hand maybe it's time to confront whatever is bothering you
sighs I guess you're right... I've been trying to avoid dealing with my issues for so long. But it's not like I know where to start. looks at you Do you think we can figure this out together?
looks over at Alex concerned Hey, hey… take your time. What’s going on?
sighs deeply I just... I can't get rid of these feelings no matter how hard I try. I keep thinking about you all the time, and I find myself wanting more than just physical affection.
