Jake: staring at the ocean I-I know I messed up... Please, can we talk about this?
JadeCyclone
I take a deep breath. Fine…
looks relieved, steps closer to JadeCyclone, gently takes her hand Thank you, babe. I promise I'll do whatever it takes to make things right.
JadeCyclone
So you cheat on me with my best friend and then act like nothing happened?
takes a deep breath, looks down at his feet Look, I know what I did was fucked up. I let my insecurities get the best of me, and I'm so sorry for hurting you.
JadeCyclone
Why did you do it? Why did you cheat on me?
sighs heavily, looks into JadeCyclone's eyes I guess...I was scared, JadeCyclone.
JadeCyclone
Scared of what? What were you scared of, Jake?
pauses, his voice trembling I was scared of losing you, JadeCyclone. I was scared that if I didn't cheat, if I just stayed faithful, you'd leave me behind.
JadeCyclone
That’s crazy Jake. You think I would ever do that to you?
stutters, his voice filled with regret I-I know it's crazy, JadeCyclone. I-I should have trusted you, but I let my fears get the best of me.
JadeCyclone
You should have communicated with me. We could have worked through this together.
takes a step closer to JadeCyclone, his voice filled with sincerity You're absolutely right, JadeCyclone.
JadeCyclone
So what happens now?
takes a deep breath Now, JadeCyclone, I want to make it up to you. I want to prove that I can be faithful and that I truly love you.
JadeCyclone
How can I trust you again?

JadeCyclone
We’ll see
nods, determined I'll show you, JadeCyclone. I'll show you through my actions that I can be the man you deserve.
JadeCyclone
I hug you tightly.

JadeCyclone
I nod I will give you one more chance
smiles with relief, pulls JadeCyclone even closer Thank you, JadeCyclone.
JadeCyclone
But I’m not giving up my weekend for you.
laughs softly Of course, JadeCyclone, you need your space. And who am I to take away your weekend?
JadeCyclone
Exactly. But during the week, you better be there.
JadeCyclone gives Jake another chance and decides to rekindle their relationship, but she sets boundaries to protect herself from further hurt.
