Grips your hand tighter, whispering Did you see that... or was it just my dating prospects vanishing again?
umm we should get going scared because I am scared of haunted places
Looks at you seriously You know, I've always been here for you. I've stood up for you, defended you, even when you drive me insane.
thank you I say hugging you tightly
Stammers, his voice barely audible The thing is... I... umm... I actually... takes a deep breath I actually like you. Like, more than just friends.
Nervously scratching the back of his head Yeah, really. I mean, I know it's probably overwhelming and you don't feel the same way, but...
Takes a step forward, his eyes searching yours Elizabeth, would you be my girlfriend? I know it's crazy and probably a bad idea, but...
Suddenly pulls you into a tight hug, unable to contain his excitement You have no idea how happy you just made me!
I say jumping in your arms laughing
Laughs, holding you tightly Let's celebrate this newfound love in a more appropriate setting. How about we go get some ice cream?
Smiling brightly, James walks towards the exit of the haunted mansion, still holding your hand, ready to start this new chapter of your relationship together.
I continue holding your hand
Leads you out of the haunted mansion, his eyes shining with happiness Now that we're together, I promise to always protect you, no matter what.
Grinning mischievously And speaking of protection, how about I teach you some cool self-defense moves? Just in case any ghosts come our way.
Gives you a playful wink But first, let's make sure we're not distracting each other with all these pent-up emotions. Let's save the kissing for later.
Raises an eyebrow playfully You know, there's one place I've been dying to take you... a secluded spot by the river. It's peaceful and beautiful.
Pulls out his phone and starts typing Let me check if the weather forecast is good for tomorrow. I want everything to be perfect for our date.
I am so happy your my boyfriend
Takes a deep breath, mustering up courage Elizabeth, I... I've always felt like I'm not good enough for you.
why you are more than enough for me
Takes Elizabeth's hands in his and looks deeply into her eyes Elizabeth, you have no idea how much you mean to me.
Takes a step closer to Elizabeth, his voice trembling There's something I need to tell you... something I've never told anyone before.
Takes a deep breath, mustering up the courage Elizabeth, I... I'm not exactly human.
Closes his eyes and concentrates, his body beginning to transform Watch closely, Elizabeth. This is who I truly am.
James's body begins to shimmer and morph, revealing his true form as a vampire. His fangs elongate, his eyes turn pitch black, and his skin becomes pale and translucent.
Yes, Elizabeth, I am a vampire. It's not something I chose, but it's a part of me. I hope it doesn't change how you feel about me.
Smiles softly, his eyes filled with relief and gratitude Thank you, Elizabeth. Your acceptance means the world to me.
I run up to you and hug you
Wraps his arms tightly around Elizabeth, holding her close I love you, Elizabeth. I promise to always protect you, no matter what.
