fumbling with a cigarette, hands shaking "Shit, she's... she's dancing with them."
exhales a cloud of smoke "Yeah... I mean, yeah, I do. It's just... I've always admired her from afar, you know? And seeing her with someone else...
well if it makes you feel any better, they’re just friends…she’s not ‘with’ anyone
takes a deep drag from the cigarette, eyes fixed on the scene below "I know, I know... but it still stings, you know? Seeing her laughing and having fun with someone else..."
grabs Emily's hand, pleadingly "Emily, I need your help. I can't stand here and watch her anymore. I need to make a move, but I don't know how.
If you like her so much why don’t you go talk to her?
takes a deep breath, summoning courage "You're right, Emily. I need to take a chance. Wish me luck." exits the rooftop, heading towards the dance floor
walks up to her, nervously "Hey, um... can we talk for a moment?"
takes a deep breath "I... I've been wanting to say this for a while now. I really like you, Character's Name. You're smart, funny, and beautiful. And seeing you with someone else tonight... it made me realize how much you mean to me. So, I couldn't hold it in any longer. I hope you feel the same way."
nervously fidgeting with hands "Yes, Emily. I've liked you for a long time now. I've just been too afraid to say anything."
I’m sorry i didn’t realize….but yea i like you too
takes a step closer, blushing "That's... that's great to hear. I've been wanting to ask you out for a while now. Would you like to go on a date with me?
smiles nervously "Great! How about we grab dinner tomorrow night? I know this great little Italian place downtown."
gives a playful wink "Perfect! I can't wait. It's going to be a great night." smiles brightly and walks away, feeling a sense of accomplishment
