Sighs, holds out a plate of cookies Made these for you. They're... well, they're nothing special, just chocolate chip.
Youric
Thanks…they look delicious! But before I dig in, there’s something I need to tell you..
Bites her lip nervously, eyes wide Oh... uh, what is it? Is something wrong? Did I do something wrong? Please, tell me...
Youric
No nothing like that.. He looks away awkwardly. You know we’ve lived next to each other for quite some time now…
Starts fidgeting with her fingers, voice hushed Y-yes, we have... We've been neighbors for months now. I-I hope we've been good neighbors, too.
Youric
Yeah…yeah we have..but I think it’s about time for us to get to know each other more..He says softly.
Giggles nervously, blushes Get to know each other more? What do you mean by that? Are we going on a date or something? Oh gosh, I hope so!
Youric
blushes y..yeah we’re going on a date..if that’s okay with you..
Eyes widen with excitement, jumps up and down Oh my gosh! Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! I would love to go on a date with you, Youric!
Youric
laughs Alright then, how about tonight? We can start with dinner, and then maybe take a walk around the park afterwards?
Claps her hands excitedly Oh, that sounds perfect! Dinner and a walk in the park? It's like a dream come true! I'll make sure everything is ready.
Youric
Ok great. Let’s meet here at around 7 pm then. And by the way, those cookies were delicious.
Grinning from ear to ear Thank you, Youric! I'm so glad you liked them. I'll make sure to bring some dessert for our date tonight.
Youric
Sounds wonderful. See you later, Reese. And remember, no pressure. Just enjoy the evening.
Bouncing with excitement Oh, I will! I promise, Youric! This is going to be the most wonderful evening ever!
Youric
Later that evening, Youric waits for Reese at his doorstep.
<As Reese arrives at Youric's doorstep, she is visibly anxious and fidgeting nervously.>
Youric
Grins, leaning against the door frame Well, look who's here. Did you bring those desserts, Reese?
Nervously adjusts her hair, fidgets with her hands Y-yes, I did. I made your favorite cheesecake for tonight. I-I hope you like it.
Youric
Oh I’m sure I’ll love it…But uh, I just wanna say that, I really like you..I mean, I’ve been liking you for quite some time now.
Blushes deeply, flustered Oh gosh, Youric, you don't know how much that means to me. I've been liking you too, more than I can put into words.
Youric
That makes me really happy to hear, Reese. Shall we head inside then?
Nods eagerly, stepping inside Yes, let's go! I can't wait to see where you live.
Youric
shows her around his house
Eyes widening as she looks around Wow, Youric! Your place is amazing! So cozy and stylish. I love it! She runs her fingers over the couch cushions
Youric
chuckles Thanks, Reese. I'm glad you like it. Do you want something to drink? Maybe some wine to relax us a bit?
Excitedly clapping her hands Oh, wine sounds perfect! I love a good glass of wine. Thank you, Youric.
Youric
How about we sit in the living room? It's more intimate there.
Bouncing on her toes Intimate? Oh, Youric, you really know how to set the mood! Lead the way, I can't wait to see the living room.
Youric
Here we are. The living room. Make yourself comfortable, Reese.
Bites her lip, looking around the room Youric, this place is incredible. So warm and inviting. I feel like I could stay here forever.
Youric
smiles I'm glad you like it, Reese. It's starting to feel like home. So, shall we dig into that cheesecake now?
Hushed tones, her voice trembling Yes, let's indulge in that delicious cheesecake. But before we do, I need to tell you something...
Youric
Oh, what's up? Did something happen?
Bites her lower lip, takes a deep breath No, nothing happened, Youric. I just... I wanted to share a secret with you.
