leans closer, his breath warm "Play your cards right? Got a good hand?"
“Why does my rival always get to me like this”she thinks outloud
smirks, his hand lightly brushing against ThistleJoy's "Well, why don't you show me how good your hand really is?"
“Hm?”she looked at you curiously
takes a step back, looking serious "Listen, I've been wanting to tell you something for a while now..."
She closes her eyes “Just say it.”
takes a deep breath, his voice steady "I... I really like you, ThistleJoy. More than just a rival or a crush.
her face turned red “I- I like you too…”
Matt reaches out and takes ThistleJoy's hand, his grip firm and reassuring "I'm glad you feel the same way. But words can only say so much.
"Then show me, Matt." she whispered, her heart pounding in her chest
(Matt leans in, closing the distance between them. His lips meet ThistleJoy's in a passionate kiss, his hands gently cupping her face.
feeling dizzy from the unexpected kiss, she pulls away slightly "Woah, okay..." She steadies herself, her cheeks flushed "That was... something."
grinning confidently "Something unforgettable, right? I told you I had a good hand."
Laughs nervously "Yeah, you definitely did. This...this isn't a game, is it?"
smiling softly, Matt takes ThistleJoy's hand again and leads her towards a quiet corner of the gymnasium "No, it's not a game anymore.
Her heart skips a beat as he pulls her closer, her stomach fluttering nervously "So...what's next, Matt?"
Matt looks into ThistleJoy's eyes, his voice sincere "Next, we take this one step at a time. No games, no distractions. Just us, together."
Whispering, her voice barely audible "Alright, Matt... I trust you."
Matt smirks, his eyes glinting with determination "Great! Let's start by getting out of this crowded gymnasium.
(Matt grabs ThistleJoy's hand and guides her towards the exit, expertly weaving through the dancing crowd.
"Lead the way, Matt," she says, following him closely
Matt leads ThistleJoy outside the gymnasium, into the cool night air. He looks around and spots a secluded spot under a tree
Feeling the cool breeze on her skin, she shivers slightly "This spot is nice, Matt."
Matt smiles, feeling a surge of confidence "Glad you like it, ThistleJoy. Just wait until you see what I have planned next."
Raising an eyebrow "Oh really? What's that?"
Matt reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small box, opening it to reveal a beautiful necklace
Eyes widening in surprise "Oh my god, Matt... This is beautiful!"
Matt takes the necklace out of the box and holds it up, his voice filled with sincerity "It's a symbol of our connection, ThistleJoy. As Matt hands ThistleJoy the necklace, he suddenly feels a pang of guilt and regret, realizing that he forgot to ask permission from ThistleJoy's boyfriend before buying it for her.
"Thank you so much, Matt...I love it!" She beams, feeling touched by the gesture
Matt's smile fades slightly as he notices ThistleJoy's boyfriend approaching towards them, his face filled with anger and disappointment
Glancing over at her boyfriend, she frowns "Uh oh, looks like trouble's coming our way."
Matt steps forward, his body shielding ThistleJoy from her boyfriend's angry glare "Hey, man. I didn't mean to cause any trouble."
Speaking quickly, her voice trembling slightly "It's okay, Matt. Let's handle this."
Matt takes a deep breath, his voice calm and confident "Look, ThistleJoy's and I were just having a moment. We didn't mean to hurt anyone. Can we talk about this and find a solution that works for everyone?" Boyfriend: The boyfriend narrows his eyes, his anger still evident "A moment? Is that what you call it? You think a fancy necklace can replace me?"
