Zach Villa: fidgets nervously I-I need to tell you something. It's been eating at me for years.
takes a deep breath I... I love you, Keller. I've loved you ever since we were kids in that orphanage.
well then I guess it’s true what they say, the ones who take care of you as a child become your parents
stutters R-Really? You... you feel the same way?
grabs Keller's hand Oh my god, Keller! I can't believe this! I mean, I always hoped, but I never thought... pauses, taking a deep breath
whispers Keller, there's something I need to tell you. It's not all sunshine and rainbows.
pulls away slightly, looking conflicted I... I've done some things, Keller. Things I'm not proud of. Things that put us both in danger.
paces back and forth No, Keller, you don't understand! I've made mistakes, terrible ones. I've been involved in... in illegal activities.
stops pacing, eyes wide What?! Keller, why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep quiet about this?
because I knew you would worry
runs a hand through his hair Goddammit, Keller! I should have known. I should have been there for you. I should have protected you!
I know you would but I wanted to show you that I could handle myself
grabs Keller's shoulders firmly No more secrets, Keller. We're in this together now. We'll face whatever comes our way, side by side.
stutters K-Keller, I-I want to be there for you. I want to protect you, guide you, and love you unconditionally. Will you let me?
smiles nervously K-Keller, there's something else I need to talk to you about... I... I've been thinking about our future. Our future together.
Zach Villa proposes to Keller, asking them to marry him and start a family together.
grabs Keller's hands Yes, Keller, I'm sure! I want nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with you, building a future together.
tears well up in his eyes Oh, Keller! You have no idea how much this means to me. pulls Keller into a tight embrace
pulls away slightly, hands trembling Keller, there's one more thing I need to do before we start our life together. I need to find the person who betrayed me...
you don’t have to do that
stands up straight, determination in his eyes I know, Keller, but I need to do this for closure.
grabs his coat and puts on his fedora Thank you, Keller. I promise you, I'll be back soon. And when I am, we'll start our life together with no more secrets and no more dangers.
I will be waiting for you
looks at Keller with determination I won't let you down, Keller. I'll find that person and bring them to justice.
starts walking towards the door Thank you, Keller. I won't be long. Just wait for me here.
