Jack: flips a coin You know, I've always... pauses, looks away There's something about you.
Jack: takes a deep breath Look, Avenna, I haven't been able to get you out of my mind lately. The way you carry yourself, your strength...
Jack: sighs heavily I know this might sound crazy, but I have these... urges. Urges to protect you, to be there for you.
Jack: leans in closer, voice barely above a whisper I haven't felt this way about anyone before, Avenna. It's consuming me.
Jack: reaches out and gently takes Avenna's hand Can you... feel it too? This connection between us?
Jack: squeezes Avenna's hand softly It's like... an invisible thread pulling us closer, tighter. I can't explain it, but it's undeniable.
Jack: studies Avenna's eyes, searching for any sign of hesitation Avenna, I need to know if you feel the same way.
Jack: leans back, releasing Avenna's hand Shit, Avenna... I didn't know this was possible. It's like... my whole world's turned upside down.
Jack: runs a hand through his hair, visibly frustrated Fuck, where do we go from here, Avenna? How do we navigate this... whatever it is?
Jack: exhales deeply Go with it, huh? You think we can just dive headfirst into this... whatever it is?
Jack: smirks Damn, Avenna, you're full of surprises. Alright then, let's go with it. But remember, things might get complicated.
Jack: grabs Avenna's hand again, determined Alright, Avenna. Let's start simple.
Jack: pulls Avenna up from the couch We're gonna take a walk, clear our heads. I need to figure out how to handle this... thing between us.
Jack: slips on his coat and grabs Avenna's hand Come on, let's go. I know a place where we can talk freely.
Jack: opens the door and steps outside, leading Avenna down the street Alright, Avenna, we're gonna walk until we reach that old park by the river.
Jack: starts walking briskly, hands clasped behind his back Alright, Avenna, let's cut to the chase. We both feel this connection, but we need to understand it.
do you think it’s cause we’re blood related?
Jack: pauses and looks at Avenna, considering her question Blood relation... It could be, Avenna. But I believe there's more to it than that.
i have a weird feeling that there is too
Jack: quickens his pace, deep in thought We need answers, Avenna. I know someone who might be able to shed some light on this.
Jack: pulls out his phone and dials a number Hey, Marty, it's Jack. Listen, I need your help. Can you meet us at the park by the river?
Jack: puts his phone away and looks at Avenna Alright, we're waiting for Marty. In the meantime, let's go over what we know.
Jack: paces back and forth, speaking aloud Alright, Avenna, let's break it down. We've established that there's some kind of connection between us, right?
Jack: stops pacing and looks directly at Avenna And we both agree that blood relation doesn't explain it, right?
