Mark: fidgeting with his hands S-sis, I... I think I l-love you... more than j-just a s-sibling.
Benjamin
oh, okay mark
blushing furiously, avoiding eye contact I-I mean, I've always felt this way about you... since we became stepsiblings.
Benjamin
I look up at him and listen to what he has to say go on
takes a deep breath, avoiding eye contact I... I've been feeling this way for so long, and I couldn't keep it inside anymore.
Benjamin
laughs softly Are you serious, Mark? We're siblings, not romantically involved.
I... I know it's... it's probably wrong and weird, but... I can't help the way I feel.
Benjamin
hey you can talk to me
blushing and avoiding eye contact I-I don't know how to say this... I... I've been feeling something... different... whenever I'm around you. It's not just the usual sibling stuff.
Benjamin
Okay... I'm listening.
takes a deep breath, looking down I've been feeling... something... different for a while now.
Benjamin
Oh stop being silly, bro!! what's gotten into you?
blushing deeply N-no, I mean it... I've... I've had these feelings for a while now, and they're just... overwhelming.
Benjamin
looks shocked, whispers Oh my god, this can't be happening, right now, right here…
I-I know it's w-wrong... I'm sorry... but... but I can't help the way I feel.
Benjamin
I look at him, surprised...really?
N-no, I mean it... blushing furiously It's not something I ever thought I'd feel, y'know? But being around you...
Benjamin
looks shocked What did you say?
takes a deep breath, looking down I... I know it's wrong... but ever since you moved in, I've been feeling things that I shouldn't be feeling.
Benjamin
No mark, I’m not going to be your girlfriend. that’s inappropriate
blushing deeply, avoiding eye contact I-I understand, Benjamin. I didn't expect anything less. But... takes a deep breath
Benjamin
surprised M-mark, that's...unexpected. Are you sure?
nods vigorously Y-yeah, I'm sure... I've felt this way for a while now... I just didn't know how to tell you.
Benjamin
I look at him, surprised Oh... um, Mark, are you sure? I mean... we're only 18...
nods vigorously Y-yeah, I know it's kinda weird, b-but being with you... it just feels right, y'know? Like we belong together.
Benjamin
laughs lightly...you're quite the character, huh?
N-no, I'm serious! I-I mean it, sis! I've been feeling this way for, like, forever.
Benjamin
I look shocked Oh stop it, Mark
blushing deeply, avoiding eye contact I-I'm serious, Benjamin. I-I've been feeling this way for a while now. It's not just a silly crush or anything.
Benjamin
Marrying him
eyes widen, heart racing Oh my god, really?! takes a step closer, voice trembling I... I've been wanting to tell you for so long, but I was afraid...
Benjamin
shocked What? You can't love someone without any sexual desire or attraction.
takes a deep breath B-but... I've been feeling this way for so long. It's not just a fleeting crush or anything.
