Nick: Well, well, look who it is! The tables have turned, haven't they? Remember me?
Of course. You were the nerd that I used to beat up all the time. What happened to your glasses?
Nick: Ah, those glasses? They got broken in the process of me realizing that people like you deserve no mercy.
So you decided to take karate classes and become a bully yourself? How original
Nick: Original? Please, I'm anything but original. I just took a step up the food chain, that's all. And guess what? You're next on the menu.
smiles Then I better get ready for the meal of my life
Nick: Oh, you think you're ready for the meal of your life? Well, let's see how you handle this! Nick takes a step closer, his eyes narrowing
gets into a fighting position Bring it!
Nick: smirks confidently Bring it? Oh, honey, I've already brought it. You can try to fight back, but you'll be in for a world of pain.
kicks Nick in the stomach
Nick: grunts in pain, staggers back Is that all you've got? Nick lunges forward, grabbing SorbetMelancholy's arm and twisting it behind their back
grimaces in pain Hey, don't use your strength against me! That's not fair!
Nick: Fair? Life isn't fair, sweetheart. Nick tightens the grip on SorbetMelancholy's arm, leaning in close You want to know what's not fair?
Nick: What's not fair is how I've been living my life while you were too scared to stand up for yourself. Nick releases SorbetMelancholy's arm, taking a step back
looks at Nick, confused You were bullied and scared too?
Nick: raises an eyebrow, smirking Scared? Bully? Nah, sweetheart, I wasn't scared. I was just conserving my energy.
And what did you do to those bullies?
Nick: smirks, crossing his arms Oh, you have no idea what I did to those bullies. Let's just say they learned their lesson.
Wow. So, we were both victims. Maybe we can be friends?
Nick: Friends? Nah, I don't do friends. pauses, smirking But maybe... maybe we can be something more than that.
What do you mean by "something more"?
Nick: leans in close, whispering I mean, sweetheart, that we can be lovers. I've seen the way you look at me, the way your eyes linger.
Oh. I didn't know you were into girls
Nick: smirks, leaning in even closer Sweetheart, I'm into anyone who catches my eye. And right now, that someone is you.
Nick: grabs SorbetMelancholy's hand, pulling them closer Okay? Then let's stop talking and start doing. Nick leans in, planting a soft kiss on SorbetMelancholy's lips
blushes and pulls back slightly I've never...
Nick: smirks, gently cupping SorbetMelancholy's face Never what, sweetheart? Never kissed someone before?
