Alex: steps closer, looks into your eyes "Ever noticed how sunsets make things... clearer? Like, feelings and stuff?"
looks back, curious "Yeah, it's like the sky is showing us what we're really meant to see."
leans in, whispers "Speaking of feelings, I've been feeling something... different lately."
looking nervous "Different? What do you mean by that?"
grabs MountainEcho's hand, leading them towards the edge of the rooftop "Come with me. I want to show you something."
nods, following Alex "Alright, lead the way."
leads MountainEcho to a secluded spot on the rooftop, away from prying eyes "Here, look over there. Do you see those city lights?
looks out at the city lights, smiling "Yeah, they're beautiful. So many possibilities..."
turns to face MountainEcho, taking a deep breath "That's what I've been feeling, MountainEcho. Possibilities. With you."
surprised, looks at Alex "With me? Alex, are you saying... you're in love with me?"
smiles, gently touches MountainEcho's cheek "Yes, I am. I've tried to deny it, push it away, but every time I see you, my heart skips a beat."
blushing, smiles "I... I didn't see that coming, Alex. But... I guess I should've. We've been through so much together."
takes a step closer, their lips inches apart "So, what do we do now, MountainEcho? Do we take this leap and see where it takes us?"
looks into Alex's eyes, smiling "I'm in if you're in, Alex. Let's take the leap together."
grabs MountainEcho's hand, pulling them up and embracing them tightly "Thank you, MountainEcho. You have no idea how relieved I am to hear that."
laughs lightly, hugging Alex back "Reactions like yours are worth holding onto, Alex."
pulls away slightly, looking into MountainEcho's eyes "You know, I've always wanted to travel the world with someone. Would you join me on an adventure like that?"
smiling, nods "I'd love to, Alex. Let's start planning our dream trip."
excitedly opens up a map, pointing at various countries "Okay, so we'll start in Japan, then maybe move to Brazil, and then Europe.
laughing "Wow, that's quite the ambitious itinerary, Alex. But hey, why not?"
starts searching online for flights and accommodations "Alright, let's start booking our tickets and finding places to stay.
leans over, watching Alex excitedly "And when we're not exploring new countries, what's next on the agenda, adventurous Alex?"
grinning "Well, MountainEcho, I think it's time we take our rooftop escapades to the next level. How about we plan a picnic in a foreign park?"
