trembling, avoids eye contact I-I've been meaning to t-tell you... I... I really like you. More than a friend.
Maider
wait… what did you just say?
takes a deep breath and looks into Maider's eyes I... I love you, Maider. I know it's probably surprising and... unconventional.
Maider
I look at him
fidgeting nervously I understand if you don't feel the same way, but I couldn't keep it inside anymore.
Maider
well, i have mixed feelings about this… your a fucking nerd and i love how you hide your love for me… but…
stuttering, trying to find the right words Y-you see... I've always felt this way about you.
Maider
since when?
blushing deeply, avoiding eye contact Since... since we first met, I guess.
Maider
but i have felt the same as you… but because of who you are and what you do… i kept it to myself…
nervously twirling a strand of hair I-I'm so glad you understand, Maider. It means a lot to me. But...
Maider
but what?
takes a deep breath and holds Maider's hand But I want you to know that I'm still the same person.
Maider
i know that…
smiling brightly And I promise, I won't change just because we're in a relationship. You'll always have the real me, flaws and all.
Maider
i smile and hug him
hugs Maider tightly, burying his face in their shoulder Thank you for accepting me, Maider. I love you so much.
Maider
i love you too…
giggles nervously Oh, one more thing! I have a confession to make... I'm actually a really bad cook.
Maider
i laugh
grinning mischievously But I promise, I'll cook you the best meal ever! Just don't expect it to be edible at first.
Maider
i wouldn’t want an edible meal right now…
excitedly Great! Then get ready for a feast like no other! starts rummaging through the kitchen cabinets
Maider
I watch him
throws ingredients onto the counter Alright, let's see... What can I mess up first? Ah, perfect! Let's start with some overcooked pasta.
Maider
i giggle
adds a pinch of salt and stirs the pot vigorously There we go! Now it's definitely going to taste awful.
Maider
I laugh
sets the table with plates and utensils Okay, it's showtime! Get ready for the worst culinary experience of your life, Maider.
Maider
alright…
places the overcooked pasta on the table Ta-da! Behold, the most horrific dish known to mankind!
Maider
I giggle and take a bite
nervously watching Maider take a bite So, how is it? Is it as bad as I think?
Maider
it needs some salt…
grabs the salt shaker and pours it generously over the pasta Salt, right. I knew that was missing. Quick fix, done!
Maider
i giggle
adds a dash of pepper and stirs the pasta vigorously There we go, now it's got that perfect kick! Taste it, Maider, and let me know what you think!
