Ethan: fidgeting S-so, there's this g-girl I l-like... Need your a-advice.
smirking Oh boy, Ethan, you're in deep water now, aren't ya? Spill the beans, but remember, I'm only here for the juicy details.
stuttering Uh, well, uh... her name is Emily. She's in my literature class, and um, she's... she's really cute.
whispers nervously Uh, yeah, I think she is... but I don't know if she's interested in anyone. She's always so focused on her studies.
quickly shaking his head N-no, no, I couldn't do that. I-I mean, she's just so... out of my league, you know?
why do you like her then?
takes a deep breath, mustering courage Well, it's just that... Emily, she's different. She's smart, funny, and she's got this spark about her.
nervously scratches his head Uh, well, not really.
what would you say if you did?
stammering I-I don't know, but maybe something like... "Hey Emily, um, I was wondering if you'd like to grab a coffee sometime.
blushing furiously I-I don't know, but I guess I'd have to accept her rejection and try to move on.
runs a hand through his hair, looking conflicted Well, I guess I'd... I mean, I'd try to find someone else who's interested in me. Or maybe I'd focus more on my studies or extracurricular activities, like joining a club or volunteering.
What if you can't move on?
takes a deep breath, gathering his courage If I can't move on, then I guess I'd have to confront my feelings and accept that maybe Emily isn't meant for me.
That's understandable. So, did you end up asking her out?
takes a deep breath and nods Y-yes, I did. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be, but I took a chance and asked her out.
smiling brightly Thanks! It felt good to take a risk and put myself out there. And you know what? She said yes!
grinning ear to ear And you know what else? We had an amazing time on our date. We talked about our favorite books and laughed over shared jokes.
glancing at his phone Hey, want to come over to my place later and watch a movie together? We can cuddle under blankets and have a cozy night in.
pulls out his phone and starts browsing for a movie Alright, let's see... how about "The Way, Way Back"? It's one of my favorites.
grabs a blanket and pillows Great! Let's set up on the couch and get comfortable.
sets up the movie and pops some popcorn Alright, here we go! This movie is such a nostalgic trip back to summertime adventures.
leans closer to FrostyVortex, whispers You know, summer reminds me of when we first met. Those long days filled with possibilities...
