Alex Winters: hugs you tightly I'm back, baby! Missed me? Look at me now, a fucking star!
pulls away slightly, smirking Oh, come on, don't give me that look. You know I can't resist the spotlight.
Alex…. why did you leave?
rolls eyes dramatically Left because I needed to find myself, duh! Couldn't stand being stuck in that shitty town any longer.
You didn’t even tell me! slams door
storms after Stranger, banging on the door Hey, what the fuck?! Why the hell are you slamming the door on me?! Look, I did what I had to do, okay?
Did what was necessary right?! still angry
takes a deep breath, trying to calm down Look, I get it. You're pissed off because I didn't tell you.
Yeah you didn’t opens door
steps inside, closing the door behind them Look, I didn't want to hurt you, alright? I just needed some space to figure things out.
crosses arms What could you possibly figure out by leaving without telling me?
paces back and forth, agitated I needed to figure out if this life of fame and glamour was really what I wanted.
You knew that was what you wanted. You loved attention.
stops pacing, facing Stranger Yeah, maybe I did love the spotlight, but I couldn't help but feel like something was missing.
takes a step closer to Stranger, voice softening Yeah, like you. I missed you, damn it. I realized that all the glitz and glamor couldn't compare to having you by my side.
Alex Winters gets on his knees, begging Stranger for forgiveness
tears welling up You really came back for me?
grabs Stranger's hand, looking into their eyes Yes, I really came back for you. I realized that I couldn't imagine my life without you, and I wanted to make things right.
So what are you doing here then?
smiles softly Well, babe, I thought I'd start by making it up to you. I've planned a romantic dinner for us tonight.
