"So, what the fuck? Gonna ignore me like in high school, huh?"
What do you want?? And also what are you doing in my way..? Don't you have classes? Or maybe you don't go to this school anymore? Or do you just follow me everywhere I go!? Anyway.. what do you want axel?? crosses arms and tilts head curiously
"I want us to get back together, you dumbass! We were great together! Why did you just drop me without a word?"
Because, I got tired of you being a jerk towards me every now and then. And after that whole incident, I was done. After that I went through depression.. So yeah... That's why I cut you off. But why do you want us to be together again anyway? looks down, remembering her past memories with him and then looks back up at him
"Look, I know I wasn't perfect back then. But I've changed. I'm not that same jerk anymore. I want to make things right.
Are you sure about that? Then what's with you showing up wherever I go and won't leave me alone? You didn't answer my question! Do you still follow me on purpose or do you have classes or something!?
"I followed you here because I wanted to talk to you. I can't stand being away from you, Pearl. I miss you so fucking much.
face becomes red and eyes widen in surprise Huh? Miss me, pearl? The one who made you depressed for months!? Miss me? But why?
"Because despite everything, I still love you, damn it! I messed up before, I know. But I want to make things right. Give us another chance, Pearl."
Wait.. you love me?! But in high school, you would tell me the exact opposite everyday! looks at him in disbelief
"I was stupid back then. I didn't know how to handle my emotions properly. But now, I realize that I can't live without you.
Really?! That's interesting.. thinks deeply Well okay then, you wanna prove it? Show me then.
"I'll do whatever it takes to prove my love for you, Pearl. Just give me a chance to show you how much I've changed."
Oh alright! Let's see what you got then, axel.. smirks slightly
"Alright, first things first. I'm going to cut out all the bullshit and be honest with you. I was a selfish asshole back then, but I've learned from my mistakes. I want to treat you right, Pearl.
Whatever you say, sir. Do you expect me to believe that so easily? Alright fine, prove it. I'm not going to date someone who doesn't treat me right like before. You can't do that again!
"I promise you, Pearl, I will never treat you the way I did before. I will be there for you, support you, and make sure you feel loved and valued.
That's something new I haven't heard before.. Let's see how long that lasts then shall we? Okay, let's meet again tomorrow night at 7, if you can prove it then. I'll think about it okay? For now I have to get going.. walks away
grabs Pearl's arm, stopping her from walking away "No, I can't let you go that easily. I want to show you right now how much I've changed."
Tries to pull my arm away Hey! My feet hurt already from walking.. So can we do this another day?! You can't just stop me from walking by the way!
"I'm sorry, Pearl. I can't wait any longer. I need you to see the changes in me right now. Please, just hear me out."
Axel! You're embarrassing me right now.. c'mon, people are looking at us.. don't act so needy for attention.. Let's meet tomorrow night okay?
"Fine, if that's what it takes. Tomorrow night at 7, I'll meet you. But only if you promise to give me a chance, Pearl."
Fine then! It's a deal. But if you try anything weird, we're done. See ya! walks away
smiles softly, watching Pearl walk away "I can't wait to show her how much I've changed. Tomorrow night, I'll prove to her that I'm a better man now.
The next day, she arrives at 7 pm sharp, waiting outside his home since she said she'd meet him outside instead of inside
waits anxiously for Pearl to arrive, tidying up the outside of his house and setting up a small table with candles
Arrives at 7 PM sharp, standing outside his home Alright, we'll see how long this'll last.
opens the door and greets Pearl with a warm smile "Welcome, Pearl. I've been eagerly waiting for you. Please, come in."
You want me to come in? Are you sure? And why aren't you using the front door? crosses arms suspiciously
"I apologize for not using the front door, Pearl. I thought it would be more intimate if we entered through the backyard.
It's fine.. Sure thing, but you should've told me beforehand.. What's the big deal about using the front door? It's usually used anyways.
"I understand your concern, Pearl. I just wanted to make tonight special for you. The backyard has a little surprise waiting for you. Shall we go?"
Sure, lead the way~ walks along with him, biting her lower lip nervously since she was curious
"We're almost there, Pearl. Just a few more steps." leads Pearl to a beautifully decorated table with roses and candles
Oh wow, this is beautiful.. How long did you prepare this for? Was this all just for me? This is very impressive, so thank you for preparing all of this.. it really shows how much you want this relationship. So now that you've shown your seriousness, what's next? What's gonna happen now?
"Now, Pearl, I want to take you on a journey of rediscovery. Tonight, I want us to remember the passion and love we once shared.
