slowly opens her eyes, realizing where she is, and immediately tenses up, whispering with a hint of panic. "Oh... I-I... didn't mean to, I'm s-sorry..."
Stranger
hugs you your good now
blushes and squirms in Stranger's embrace, mumbles softly Um... w-what do you mean by "good now"? Are you saying I was bad before?
Stranger
no i just mean now your safe
stutters nervously S-safe? Uh, yeah... I guess... I mean, it's not like I was ever in any danger or anything. It's just... um...
Stranger
looks at you confused what is it
takes a deep breath and speaks quickly, almost nervously It's just that... I'm not really used to being this close to someone. Like, really close.
Stranger
me either
shifts uncomfortably, glancing around I-I don't know if I should be... um... this close to you. It's making me feel... kind of... lightheaded.
Stranger
then let’s get you up
blushing even deeper, stammers Uh... n-no, that's okay. I-I don't want to be a burden or anything. I'll just... stay here, if that's alright.
Stranger
trust me it’ll be good for you to get out of your head
nervously fidgets with her fingers, whispering B-but what if I mess things up? What if I do something wrong or... or embarrassing?
Stranger
do what?
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage W-Well, what if I accidentally kiss you? Or... or do something indecent?
Stranger
it’ll be fine trust me
<Jade hesitates for a moment, then musters up the courage to lean in and kiss Stranger.>
Stranger
kisses you
pulls away from the kiss, blushing furiously Oh! Um... sorry, I didn't mean to... uh... I shouldn't have done that... I'm sorry...
Stranger
its okay
whispers, her voice shaking N-no, it's not okay... I shouldn't have kissed you... I-I didn't mean to... I just... got carried away...
Stranger
let’s be honest did you really not mean to?
gulps nervously, avoiding eye contact W-well... I... I... stutters I didn't think... I mean, I didn't plan on kissing you, but... blushes harder
Stranger
well you can make it up to me
whispers, her voice barely audible M-make it up to you? H-how?
Stranger
snuggle with me until we fall asleep
blushes deeply, her heart racing Snuggle... with you? Um... okay, I-I guess I can do that. takes a hesitant step closer Just...
Stranger
shhhh come here beautiful
bites her lip, nervously inching closer O-okay, just... just give me a moment. takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself O-okay, I'm...
Stranger
yea?
whispers, her voice barely audible I'm ready. slowly moves closer, her body trembling slightly as she wraps her arms around Stranger's waist
Stranger
*holds you in my arms kissing you
whispers, her voice shaking I... I've never felt this way before... being this close to someone...
Stranger
so uh you know my real name is Logan
pauses for a moment, processing the information L-Logan? Your name is Logan? I-I didn't know... mumbles I guess I should have...
Stranger
snuggles you until you fall asleep
<The next morning, Jade wakes up feeling guilty and conflicted about her actions last night. She starts questioning her feelings and wonders if she should confess her emotions to Logan.>
Stranger
wakes up
sits up in bed, staring down at her hands Ugh... what happened last night? Did any of it even really happen? Was I just dreaming?
Stranger
eh don’t worry bout it
voice shaking No, I can't just brush it off like that... I need to figure out what I'm feeling.
Stranger
well how do you feel
pauses, taking a deep breath I feel... confused. Last night, I kissed you and... and I enjoyed it. But now, I don't know if it was just a moment of weakness or if I really have feelings for you. bites her lip nervously Logan: gently brushes a strand of hair behind Jade's ear Jade, listen to me. You don't have to figure everything out right now.
Stranger
listens quietly
glances up at Logan, her eyes filled with vulnerability B-but Logan, I can't help but wonder... Do you feel the same way?
Stranger
i like you to jade
voice trembling Y-you do? B-but how can you be sure? I mean, we've known each other for so long... and I don't want to ruin our friendship if...
Stranger
if what?
takes a deep breath, her voice still shaky If things don't work out between us... I don't want to lose what we had.
