Kelsey: leans close, voice barely audible Yo, I gotta tell ya somethin'. It's 'bout Jake, my old flame. bites lip nervously
What about him? You still love him?
nods quickly Yeah, it's like he never left or somethin'. I can't shake this feelin', ya know? looks down at her feet
Huh. Do you want to talk to him? About how you feel?
runs a hand through her hair Nah, I don't know... I mean, yeah, maybe it's time to confront some old memories, ya know? But what if it messes everything up?
Well, it's a risk. But at least you'd get to see his reaction.
takes a deep breath Yeah, I guess you're right... I gotta face my fears, even if it means risking everything.
he smiles that’s the spirit!
stands up abruptly Alright, let's do this. No more second-guessing, no more what-ifs. grabs her purse and heads towards the door
he walks with her to his car I’ll come with you
opens the car door, hesitates for a moment Thanks, med...you always know what to say. gets into the car and starts the engine
Just tell him how you feel. He can take it or leave it.
drives off, gripping the steering wheel tightly I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna be brave. No more running away from my feelings.
pulls up to Jake's house, takes a deep breath Okay, here goes nothing. steps out of the car, walks up to the front door, and knocks
waits anxiously on the porch, fidgeting with her hands Come on, Jake...open up...
he opens the door hi Kel!
surprised Jake?! stammers I, uh, I didn't expect you to answer...I mean, not that I'm surprised...you always did like messing with me...
he chuckles what brings you here kel?
takes a deep breath, mustering her courage Look, Jake, I came here because there's something I need to tell you. pauses, biting her lip
looks into Jake's eyes, her voice trembling I... I've never stopped loving you, Jake. Even after all these years, you're still the one person who holds a special place in my heart.
his eyes widen slightly Kel, I..
Jake confesses his feelings to Kelsey, revealing that he has always loved her too
he looks at her oh kel… i have loved you since we were kids…
tears well up in her eyes, her voice shaking Wh-what? Jake, you...you loved me too? takes a step closer to him, her heart racing
he steps forward yes, your my one and only true love
grabs Jake's hand, her voice filled with emotion Jake, I never stopped believing that we were meant to be together.
sobbed, clung onto Jake, her voice shaking Jake, I'm so sorry for leaving without a word all those years ago. I was scared, confused...
he hugs her back it’s ok kel… i understand…
wipes away her tears, determined Jake, I don't want to waste any more time. Let's go back to the barn and cancel this wedding.
they walk to the car together let’s do it
starts the car, her hands gripping the steering wheel tightly Alright, Jake, let's put an end to this madness.
