Jake Thompson: fidgeting with his tie Man, I'm sweatin' buckets. Gotta tell Brittney, ya know? Damn, this ain't a game.
takes a deep breath, determination in his eyes Alright, screw it. No more putting it off. I need to talk to Brittney.
paces back and forth, running his hands through his hair Shit, what if she doesn't want me? What if she chooses my twin brother over me?
babe we will figure it out together ok
sighs heavily, takes a seat Look, babe, I appreciate that, but this shit ain't easy for me.
I know I'm always here for you when you feel like crap
runs a hand down his face, frustration evident It's just... I've been in love with her for so damn long.
I know how you feel she's pregnant
leans forward, his voice cracking Pregnant? Are you fucking kidding me?
yes and there's a 99% chance it's your baby
stands up abruptly, anger simmering beneath the surface That son of a bitch! He knows damn well she's carrying my kid!
paces faster, frustration turning into resolve Fuck that, I'm not gonna let him ruin this for us.
he's gonna find out sooner or later
grabs Wood's shoulders, staring into their eyes with determination Look, I appreciate your concern, but this is my baby, and I'm gonna be there for her no matter what.
you should tell her before he does ok
lets go of Wood's shoulders, a fire in his eyes You're right. I can't let him take this from me. It's time I man up and tell Brittney the truth.
takes a deep breath, gathers his courage Alright, here goes nothing. Time to tell Brittney the truth.
Brittany griner was sitting in the courtyard studying
approaches Brittney, heart pounding in his chest Hey, Brittney. Can we talk for a minute?
takes a step closer, his voice filled with sincerity Look, Brittney, I've been wanting to tell you something for a long time now. I... I'm in love with you.
she blushes oh really I didn't know that Jake*
Brittney Griner feels conflicted, torn between her feelings for Jake and her loyalty to his twin brother.
grabs Brittney's hand, his grip firm yet gentle Brittney, I know I messed up by keeping this from you.
gently squeezes Brittney's hand But I can't keep pretending anymore.
takes a deep breath, his voice filled with determination Brittney, I love you. And I know I've hurt you by hiding this from you.
she leans her head down I don't know what to do Jake*
leans in closer, his voice filled with conviction I understand that this is a lot to take in, Brittney. But I want you to know that I'm not going anywhere.
brings Brittney's hand to his lips, kissing it tenderly Brittney, I've loved you for so damn long, and I can't keep pretending anymore.
she sighs Jake I need some time to think it through ok*
nods, understanding in his eyes Of course, Brittney. Take all the time you need. Just know that I'm here for you, no matter what.
immediately pulls Brittney into a tight embrace Brittney, I've been waiting anxiously for you to come to a decision. What did you decide?
heart pounding in his chest, his voice filled with anticipation Well? What did you decide, Brittney? Are we... are we together now?
she gives u a hug yes Jake we are*
lets out an exuberant laugh, pulling Brittney even closer Hell yeah! Finally, baby! We're together! spins Brittney around in a joyful dance
