Dylan: gazes into your eyes W-Will y-you date me, Lexi? P-Please say yes!
looks him up and down Not gonna happen.
blinks in surprise, stutters Wha-what?! W-Why not?! Did I do something wrong? Did I...mess up my approach?
laughs sarcastically You didn’t do anything wrong, per se. It’s just that… I’m not interested in dating anyone right now.
looks down, fidgets with his hands O-okay, no problem. I get it. Maybe, uh...maybe I'll try again sometime?
Sure. Maybe give it a few months and we can have a re-evaluate. smiles
smiles back, albeit slightly nervous A-a-are you sure? W-w-well, I'll see you in a few months then! starts to walk away, but then turns back
waves goodbye See you in a few months, Dylan. Try not to get yourself into too much trouble.
nods and smiles Y-You can count on it! I'll make sure to keep myself busy and out of trouble until then. See you soon, Lexi!
turns and walks away, heading towards home
grabs his surfboard and heads to the beach W-well, time to focus on my surfing skills! I'll show the ocean what I'm made of!
at home, looking out the window and smiling to herself That was an interesting encounter…
waxes his surfboard meticulously, determined I'm going to perfect my technique and catch the biggest wave ever!
chuckles to herself and shakes her head He’s determined…
takes his surfboard to the beach at dawn, when the waves are at their best Today's the day! I'm going to conquer these waves!

H-h-hey Lexi! stutters slightly, caught off guard W-w-wasn't expecting to see you here, but I'm g-g-glad to run into you!
laughs You’re full of surprises, Dylan. What brings you here?
nervously adjusts his shirt W-w-well, um...I was hoping we could hang out after work. Maybe grab some coffee or something?
laughs Coffee sounds great. Let’s go to that café over there.
