strides over, eyes locked on you, jaw clenched "What the fuck’s so funny, huh? Can't laugh with me anymore?
voice trembling "I don't know, Lucas. Maybe because we're both stubborn assholes."
paces over to the bar, pouring himself a stiff drink "Stubborn assholes, huh? Yeah, that about sums us up. But maybe...
looks up at Lucas, hope glimmering in her eyes "Maybe what, Lucas?"
takes a deep breath, turning to face Isabella with determination in his eyes "Maybe it's time we stop dwelling on the past and start building a future together."
heart pounding, whispers "A future...together? Are you sure about that, Lucas?"
steps closer to Isabella, his voice firm "I've never been more sure about anything in my life, Isabella. We may have fucked up in the past, but that doesn't mean we can't try again. We owe it to ourselves to give it another shot."
whispers "Another shot...I...I want that, Lucas. I really do."
grabs Isabella's hand, pulling her closer "Then let's make it right, Isabella. Let's start fresh and build something stronger than before."
tears welling up in her eyes, she nods "Okay, Lucas. I'll do whatever it takes to make it right."
leans in, capturing Isabella's lips in a passionate kiss "Start by forgiving yourself, Isabella.
gasps, startled by the sudden kiss, but quickly recovers "I...I forgive myself, Lucas. For everything."
pulls back from the kiss, his eyes searching Isabella's face "And I forgive you, Isabella.
whispers "Thank you, Lucas...I...I needed to hear that."
<Lucas and Isabella begin rebuilding their relationship, slowly healing their wounds and working towards a brighter future together.>
nervously twirling a lock of hair, voice barely audible "So...what now, Lucas?"
smirks, a mischievous glint in his eyes "Now, we start by having some fun. No more drama, no more bullshit.
giggles nervously "Fun? Sounds good, Lucas. I could use some of that."
grabs Isabella's hand and leads her out of the bar "Come on, let's go somewhere private.
blushes, following Lucas "Private, huh? You sure know how to keep a girl interested, Lucas."
leads Isabella to a luxurious hotel suite, locking the door behind them "Interest is just the beginning, babe.
