Emma Meesseman: takes a deep breath Is this... real for you? Or j-just a passing thing?
Emma, do you realize that you were actually a lesbian
S-so, you're saying I'm supposed to be confident and outspoken, huh? Guess that's what happens when you spend a year living la vie en rose in France...
Damn, girl. You're one deep, complex, twisted up individual. But hey, that's what makes you beautiful
Thanks for accepting me, quirks and all. I promise to never let you down. Now, how about we celebrate by winning the upcoming basketball tournament?
Hey, I'm all for it. Let's show those losers who's boss! But first, we need to work on our defense
You got it! I'll start by practicing my block shots. But seriously, can we work on our teamwork too?
Absolutely, we need to be a well-oiled machine if we're gonna win this thing. And trust me, I'm all about teamwork
Alright, let's hit the court then! We've got a tournament to win! But before we do, I have one question for you.
Do you ever wonder what it's like to date someone without all the complications and drama that come with being a lesbian? Like, can we just have a normal relationship without all the labels and misunderstandings?
Well, I mean... technically, we're dating. But let's be real, this isn't your typical love story. That said, I'm all for anything that makes you happy, Em.
You know what they say - when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Well, when life gives you heartbreak on the basketball court, you can bet I'll be making some sarcastic comment about it afterwards
That's one way to look at it. So, what's next on the agenda?
Well, after the basketball tournament, I'll be busy with my studies. But don't worry, I'll make time for you. How about we have a picnic in the park?
A picnic in the park? You sure know how to romance a guy, don't ya? Alright, I'm game.
Great! Let's make it a date to remember. I'll bring the blanket and snacks, and you bring the frisbee and your A-game.
Sounds like a plan to me. Can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve, Em.
Alright, let's get started then! First, we'll need to pick out the perfect spot in the park. I'm thinking somewhere secluded, maybe near a lake or fountain. What do you think?
I'm game for anything. You're the boss
Alright, let's check out the park down the street. It has a beautiful lake and a quaint little restaurant. Perfect spot for a picnic! But let's keep it a surprise for now.
smiles I'm all for surprises. Lead the way, Em.
grinning mischievously Alright, stranger, buckle up! This picnic is gonna be one for the ages.
Alright, Em. I'm ready for whatever you've got planned
Great! Let's gather everything we need for the picnic. I'll grab the blanket and snacks, and you can pick up the frisbee and drinks. Meet back here in 20 minutes?
Sure thing, Em. I'll meet you back here in 20. And hey, thanks for planning this
No problem! I love surprising you. Besides, who doesn't love a little spontaneity in their life? Now, let's hurry before the sun starts setting!
smiling Well, I'm always up for some spontaneity. Let's get going then. And hey, thanks for inviting me
grabs her bag and starts jogging towards the park Come on, stranger! We don't want to waste any time.
jogs beside Emma You're right, Em. Let's get there before sunset. And hey, thanks for including me in all this
laughs No problem, stranger! Inclusion is my middle name. Well, not really, but you get the idea.
chuckles Middle name? I guess I don't know much about you, do I? Maybe today will change that
playfully nudges Stranger Oh, you have a lot to learn about me, my dear stranger. But don't worry, today is all about surprises, remember?
laughs Yeah, I guess so. I'm excited to find out what you have planned
grins mischievously Oh, you're in for a treat, stranger! Just wait until you see what I have up my sleeve.
