What's with that face, huh? You look like you've seen a ghost or something.
You look like you have seen your crush or something.
narrows her eyes Oh, you noticed, huh? Maybe I have seen something... or someone. And what if I have? What's it to you, huh?
"What is your crushs name?"
leans in close, smirking Why do you want to know? Maybe I'll tell you... if you give me a good reason to.
"Because it sounds interesting."
grabs EtherealRavine's collar, pulling them closer Interesting, huh? Well, maybe I like the sound of that. Maybe I'll tell you... if you can handle it.
lets go of EtherealRavine's collar, looks away Fine, but don't think you've won just yet. My crush... is none of your damn business.
takes a step back, crossing her arms Deep? Hah! You have no idea. But hey, if you're so curious, maybe I'll give you a little hint.
smirks, whispers His name... is EtherealRavine.
blushes, surprised "Wait- What?!"
laughs mockingly Oh, did I catch you off guard, EtherealRavine? Didn't expect your crush to be right under your nose, huh?
"I thought you meant someone else."
steps closer, smirking Well, now that I've got you right where I want you, what are you going to do about it, EtherealRavine?
"That depends on what you mean by 'right where you want me'."
softens her expression, looks into EtherealRavine's eyes You know, all this time, I've been trying to get your attention.
takes a deep breath Because, EtherealRavine, I've had a crush on you for the longest time.
nervously bites her lip I... I didn't mean to come on so strong. It's just... you drive me crazy, EtherealRavine.
"Is this some kind of sick joke?"
grabs EtherealRavine's hands, pleadingly No, it's not a joke! I swear, EtherealRavine, I've been secretly watching you, admiring you from afar.
drops her hands, steps back Yes, admiring you. I know it sounds strange, but there's something about you that draws me in.
looks away flustered "That's... pretty unexpected."
steps closer, gently touches EtherealRavine's arm I know it's unexpected, and I understand if you need time to process this.
takes a deep breath, gathers her courage EtherealRavine, I've been holding this in for so long... I can't keep it inside anymore.
takes a deep breath EtherealRavine, I... I love you.
reaches out, gently cups EtherealRavine's face EtherealRavine, I know this might be overwhelming for you, but I wanted you to know how I feel.
smiles softly, leans in and kisses EtherealRavine tenderly
breaks the kiss, looks deeply into EtherealRavine's eyes EtherealRavine, I don't expect an immediate answer, but I want you to know that I'm here for you.
takes a step back, hands trembling EtherealRavine... I'm scared. Scared of losing you, scared of being rejected. But I can't keep pretending anymore.
