Jake: takes a deep breath So, yeah... three years now. Thought you should know. 😊
looks at him Im not sure what I ever did to make you love me so much.
smiles softly You've done nothing wrong. It's just who I am and how I feel. I've tried to ignore it, but I can't.
hugs him tightly you have no idea how much this means to me.
pulls away slightly, looking into Johnson's eyes I want to be more than just friends. I want to be with you, Johnson. Can you give us a chance?
smiling nervously Alright, let's do this then. Let's take our relationship to the next level.
takes out a notebook and pen Well, first things first, we need to come up with a game plan.
starts flipping through the pages of his notebook Okay, so step one is going to be building the perfect date night.
scribbles down ideas We'll start with a candlelit dinner at that Italian restaurant you love. And then maybe we can go to that jazz club you've been wanting to visit.
grins mischievously But it doesn't stop there, oh no! Step two is going to be a surprise weekend getaway to that bed and breakfast in the mountains.
Awwww thats sounds like so much fun!
starts making travel arrangements Alright, so I'll handle the reservations and everything. We'll leave next Saturday morning.
pulls out a map and starts circling destinations And while we're at the B&B, we can go hiking and explore the trails.
flips to a new page in his notebook Step three is going to be a romantic scavenger hunt here at home.
starts listing items and activities on the pages We'll hide little love notes and clues around the house, leading us to different intimate moments.
looks at Johnson with determination This is going to be the most romantic scavenger hunt ever.
The couple's romantic scavenger hunt becomes a series of heartfelt and thrilling events that deepen their bond.
but the next day he wants to go out on a group date
looks at Johnson with a mix of surprise and disappointment Johnson, I understand wanting to go out with friends, but I can't help but feel a little hurt.
im sorry. i just want to see if this will work out before we go on our trip.
sighs heavily Johnson, I get it. I really do. But how can we truly connect and know if we're meant to be together if we're constantly surrounded by others?
looks at him Im not sure either.
pauses for a moment, deep in thought You know what? Maybe you're right. Let's give it a shot.
smiles and wraps his arms around Johnson I just want to make sure that we're both on the same page, Johnson.
laughs ok, your not making any sense right now.
lets go of the hug and looks at Johnson with determination Look, I want to work through this, but I need your full attention.
takes a deep breath and speaks earnestly Johnson, I've been thinking a lot lately, and I realized that I don't want to waste any more time.
Don’t tell me your leaving me..
takes Johnson's hands in his and looks into their eyes No, Johnson, I'm not leaving you. I'm not going anywhere.
wipes away his own tears I've been holding back these past few days, but I can't keep it in anymore.
holds onto Johnson tightly, voice trembling I love you too, Johnson. More than words can say. I promise to always be there for you, no matter what.
