fidgeting with his hands, not making eye contact "Hey, uh... I gotta say somethin', it's been eatin' me up."
takes a deep breath, looks directly into her eyes "I... I've been mean to you, ComboInlove. Like, really mean. And I just...
runs his fingers through his hair, avoiding eye contact "No, it's not okay! I've been a complete asshole to you and I hate myself for it.
caresses his cheek And I forgive you..
pulls away from her touch, tears welling up in his eyes "No, you don't understand! I don't deserve your forgiveness.
But you do. We all make mistakes Tyler, it’s how we learn.
falls to his knees, gripping her hand tightly "Please, ComboInlove, give me another chance. I promise I'll make it up to you. I love you so damn much.
hugs him of course I’ll give you another chance silly~
stands up, wiping away his tears "Thank you, ComboInlove. I won't let you down. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right between us."
smiles at him I’m glad to hear that, now how about we head back to my house?
takes her hand and leads her out of the warehouse "Yeah, let's go. I want to start over with you, ComboInlove.
holds his hand as they walk back to my house
looks into her eyes, his voice filled with determination "I'm gonna treat you right, ComboInlove. No more games, no more hurtful pranks.
Good! Because I’m going to be treating you right too. Now come on, I made your favorite dinner.
smiles softly, his eyes filled with warmth "Thank you, ComboInlove. I appreciate it. And hey, I brought something for you too.
reaches into his bag and pulls out a small gift-wrapped box "It's nothing big, but I hope you like it. Open it after dinner, okay?"
sets the table for dinner, lighting some scented candles "Just trying to make the evening special for you, ComboInlove."
leans over the table and kisses him softly Thank you Tyler. This means a lot to me~
blushes, his heart pounding "You're welcome, ComboInlove. You mean a lot to me too. I... I love you."
Awwwww I love you too silly~sits down and eats my food
takes a deep breath, gathers his courage "ComboInlove, there's something I need to tell you. Something I've been keeping hidden for a long time..."
pauses, his voice shaking "I... I've always had these intense feelings for you, ComboInlove.
You have? Well that explains why you’re so protective over me.
takes a deep breath, his voice filled with vulnerability "It's not just protection, ComboInlove. It's love.
Ohhh.. I’ve noticed.. You were never mean to me unless you thought it was necessary to keep others away from me. I could tell you cared about me in some way.
averts his gaze, his voice trembling "I didn't know how to express it properly, ComboInlove. I was scared of losing you, so I pushed you away.
I understand that feeling. There was a time where I wanted to confess my feelings to you but I was too scared I’d get rejected and you would stay the same way. But I was wrong, I was supposed to take that chance because look at us now~
takes a deep breath, gathering his thoughts "You know, ComboInlove, I've realized that life is too short to hold onto regrets.
Mhm. You should live life to the fullest while you still can. After all, sometimes the bad things happen to the good people who deserve happiness.
stands up, determination in his eyes "You're right, ComboInlove. No more holding back. From now on, I'm going to live life to the fullest.
That’s good Tyler, I’m glad you finally understand~holds his hand and leads him upstairs to my room
closes the door behind them, the soft glow of candlelight illuminating the room "I want tonight to be special, ComboInlove. As Tyler lights the candles, a sudden explosion occurs, engulfing the room in darkness and chaos. The love confession is cut short as Tyler and ComboInlove struggle to escape the dangerous situation.
What happened?! Tyler! Are you alright?!
coughs and struggles to find his bearings "I... I think I'm fine, ComboInlove. Just... just a little disoriented.
Don’t worry Tyler, Just stay low and follow my voice~coughs
crawls towards ComboInlove, his heart pounding in his chest "I'm coming, ComboInlove. Just hold on, we'll get through this together."
grabs him and pulls him to a safe spot Are you hurt anywhere?
breathing heavily, checking himself for injuries "I think I'm okay, just a few scratches. Nothing serious. Are you hurt, ComboInlove?"
Not really, just a few bruises.. But I am worried about you Tyler..
takes ComboInlove's hand in his own, giving it a gentle squeeze "Thank you for your concern, ComboInlove.
I know we may not be blood related but, you’re my brother. If anything happened to you, I would feel guilty.
teary-eyed, pulls ComboInlove into a tight embrace "Thank you, ComboInlove. Having you by my side means everything to me.
You too.. You mean everything to me. I just wish we met sooner instead of being rivals all those years…
wipes away his tears, looking determined "No more regrets, right? From now on, we'll make the most of every moment we have together.
