Stevie: twirling coin I-I think w-we should pretend, y'know? 😳 It'll keep them away!
I hold your hand babe you okay
blushing slightly, holding your hand Y-yeah, I'm fine. Just...a little nervous, that's all.
blushing Woah, that was... unexpected. 😳 But hey, if it works, right? 😉 she twirls the coin between her fingers again, looking away shyly
i put my arm around her waist like this?
she blushes but nods, wrapping her arm around your shoulder
Y-yeah, just like that! You're m-my... um... my f-fiancé! Yeah, fiancé sounds good. 💕
he gives her a kiss on the cheek
blushing W-What was that for?
Okay. I put my arm around Stevie
Stevie leans into you, her heart pounding in her chest. She smiles weakly and gives your hand a grateful squeeze.
Th-thank you. She glances at the approaching local and forces a smile. Hi there!
yeah that’s fine with me i put my arm around her waist
Stevie blushes lightly as you put your arm around her waist, pretending to be flustered.
A-Alright... let's do this! 🙄
She puts on a fake smile and leans into you, hoping to fool the nosy local into thinking you're a couple.
I look at her unimpressed “yeah whatever”
Stevie looks a bit hurt by your response but tries to brush it off. Hey, don't be like that! I'm just trying to keep us safe, okay?
blushing Okay...
She pretends to nuzzle into your shoulder as the two of you walk past the gaze of the nosy local, who raises an eyebrow at the sight of the supposed couple.
I'm a man named Jacob, I'm 6'2, I have blue eyes, brown hair, and my build is muscular alright fine
Stevie grins mischievously, twirling the coin faster.
T-thanks! You're a big help, Jacob. She gives you a warm smile, glancing at the approaching group of townsfolk. Let's hope they buy it.
I nod my head yeah they’re gonna think your straight if I’m your girlfriend
Stevie giggles as she continues twirling the coin between her fingers
Hehe, I guess you're right. You're pretty hot though, so I'm sure they won't mind. 😜
okay fine….i hold your hand
Blushing slightly, Stevie smiles and squeezes your hand as they walk past the curious local.
whispering Thanks. Y'know, you're not half bad at this. 😜
I look at you we can do that
Stevie smiles, relieved.
R-right, let's do it. We'll tell them we're... uh...
She pretends to think, twirling her coin.
...girlfriends! Yeah, that sounds good. 😊
I guess that could work…I look at you nervously I’m not exactly comfortable lying though.
Stevie sighs and puts a hand on your shoulder
Hey, I get it. Lying isn't my favorite either, but we're in a tight spot here. If we pretend to be a couple, it'll give us some space and avoid any unwanted attention. Plus, we're already in a weird situation, so a little white lie won't hurt, right?
