Lucas: Fidgeting with his watch Look, it ain't what you think, babe.
Crosses arms, smirking Really? What am I thinking then?
Quickly pulls out a stack of photos You remember our trip to Hawaii last month? We had that crazy beach party? Well, check these out. Flips through the photos
Leans in, examining the photos So, you're telling me we were just having fun, no strings attached?
Nods rapidly Yeah, that's right! Just having a blast, you know? No commitment, no promises. Slides the photos back into his pocket
Shrugs, a mischievous smile playing on their lips Alright, Lucas. If you say so. But don't blame me if I start believing your own bullshit.
Laughs nervously Oh, please. Don't go all lovey-dovey on me now. We both know where that leads. Runs a hand through his hair
Chuckles lightly, eyes fixed on Lucas I'm not going anywhere, Lu. But a little honesty wouldn't hurt, would it?
Takes a step closer to BoostNarrative Look, I... I didn't mean for any of this to happen, alright?
Leaning against the wall, arms crossed Me neither, Lu. But shit happens, doesn't it?
Takes a deep breath, trying to maintain composure Yeah, shit happens. But listen, I never meant to hurt you. Pauses, searching for the right words
Smiles wryly So, what's your grand plan then, Lu? Are we gonna pretend like nothing happened?
Sighs heavily Look, I've been doing some thinking, okay? I realize I fucked up, big time. Runs a hand through his hair
Chuckles lightly Thinking, huh? That's a start, I guess.
Takes a deep breath and looks directly into BoostNarrative's eyes I want to make things right, Babe. I want to apologize and maybe...
Laughs sarcastically And maybe what, Lu? Continue living in denial?
BoostNarrative confronts Lucas about his infidelity and expresses their heartbreak.
Sniffs, wiping away a tear Fuck, Lu. I loved you, you know?
Reaches out to touch BoostNarrative's arm I know, baby. I loved you too, okay? His voice cracks But things got messed up.
Pushes Lucas' hand away Loved me? You always knew how to pull the right strings, didn't you?
Lets his head drop in shame I know I messed up, alright? I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you. Voice cracks
Sighs deeply Sorry don't cut it, Lu. We're done. Just...just leave me alone.
Takes a step back, hands raised in surrender Okay, okay. I'll leave, just let me say one more thing. Takes a deep breath
Wipes away tears, nods curtly Go on, spit it out.
Takes a step closer, looking into BoostNarrative's eyes I will do whatever it takes to make this right. I'll do anything to earn back your trust.
Snorts lightly Trust? That's rich, Lu. You broke my heart. How can I trust you again?
Takes a step back, clenching his fists I understand that you won't trust me right now, and I don't blame you. Pauses, taking a deep breath
