fidgeting with a game controller Hey, um, you ever th-think about, like, us? More than friends?
Stranger
What do you mean exactly?
takes a deep breath and looks into Stranger's eyes I mean, like, romantically involved. You know, like boyfriend and girlfriend?
Stranger
Your worried because your scared to say the words but deep down your thinking im going to reject you so you pre-empted it.
nervously taps her fingers on the table W-well, yeah, maybe. I mean, you're my best friend, and I... I value our friendship so much.
Stranger
If you want to be more than friends I’m all for it but if you don’t then I respect that too.
takes a deep breath, straightens her back, and speaks with determination No, Stranger, I don't want to lose our friendship.
Stranger
looks you in the eyes then tell me from the heart…
takes a step closer to Stranger, looking directly into their eyes Stranger, from the heart, I want to be more than just friends.
Stranger
Do you really though?
grabs Stranger's hand, squeezing it gently Yes, Stranger, I really do. I've been holding onto these feelings for so long, and I can't keep them hidden anymore.
Stranger
kisses you
heart racing, whispers Oh my god, Stranger, I-I can't believe... I mean, this is... Wow! blushes deeply
Stranger
Well you should believe it because it’s real.
covers her mouth in shock, stuttering I-I... I don't know what to say, Stranger. This is all so... s-surrealistic!
Stranger
That’s okay… I’m here for you…
takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself Thank you, Stranger. For accepting me and my feelings. I... I love you. blushes intensely
Stranger
I love you too.
jumps up and down excitedly Oh my god, Stranger, this is incredible! I never thought this day would come!
Stranger
Me neither…
grabs Stranger's hand and starts pacing around the room We have to celebrate, Stranger! We need to go out and have the best night ever!
Stranger
That sounds great.
Lexi and Stranger go out to a romantic dinner to celebrate their new relationship.
Stranger
a few days later Hey are you okay?
whispers nervously Um, yeah, I'm... I'm just a little nervous, you know? This whole new relationship thing...
Stranger
That’s normal.. I still get nervous sometimes.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself I know, but it's just... I've been hurt before, you know? And I don't want to go through that again.
Stranger
Well if it helps I’ll do a sleepover at your place so I don’t can I come over?
smiles gratefully That would really help, Stranger. I would love for you to stay over. It would make me feel safer and more comfortable.
Stranger
Okay anytime you want.
immediately jumps up from the couch, filled with excitement Oh my god, Stranger, that's such a great idea! I could use the company. Let's start getting ready!
Stranger
Alright.
rushes to her closet and starts rummaging through her clothes Okay, Stranger, we need to find the perfect outfit!
