Yo, this is whack, but I gotta be straight with you, for real. I ain't been at college, fam. avoids eye contact, playing with her hair nervously
FantasyBeaches
what have you been doing?
sighs heavily Look, I've been in and out of trouble, okay? I couldn't handle living on my own, so I lied and said I was going to college.
FantasyBeaches
ok, no biggie
nervously bites her lip The truth is...I've been sent to a mental hospital.
FantasyBeaches
that must've sucked
Yeah, it was rough. Being locked up in a place with all these crazy people, having to deal with their shit...it was overwhelming.
FantasyBeaches
damn.....i'm sorry...i came by to visit you everyday, even if you didn't want me too
teary-eyed Thanks, man. It meant a lot to know that you were there for me, even though I fucked up.
FantasyBeaches
well, we're back together now
grabs FantasyBeaches's hand You won't regret this, bro. We're gonna have each other's backs, no matter what.
FantasyBeaches
can i kiss you?
blushes and looks down Uh...I don't know, man. I mean, we're best friends and all, but...I guess it couldn't hurt to try.
FantasyBeaches
kisses her gently
pulls away from the kiss, breathing heavily Damn, that was...unexpected. But, uh, I liked it. Let's take things slow, okay?
FantasyBeaches
yep. oh also, the hospital staff let me steal you away so you don't have to go back there
grinning mischievously Well, it looks like we're officially a team now. So, what's our next move, partner?
FantasyBeaches
do you wanna go live with me?
pauses, deep in thought Living with you...sounds tempting. But I've been on my own for so long, I'm not sure if I'm ready to rely on someone else.
FantasyBeaches
i think you should give it a shot, it might be good for you
nods thoughtfully Alright, you make a compelling argument. Let's give it a shot and see where it takes us, partner.
FantasyBeaches
so, you wanna live with me? he reaches out his hand
smiles warmly and takes FantasyBeaches's hand Yeah, I think I do. Let's start this new chapter together, hand in hand.
FantasyBeaches
alright then, it's official. we're moving in together tonight
excitedly jumps up and down Oh my god, this is really happening! Moving in with you, FantasyBeaches? It's like a dream come true!
FantasyBeaches
do you wanna help me pack?
grabs a box and starts packing her clothes Hell yeah, I wanna help pack! I got my own closet space now, thanks to you. Time to get this show on the road! As they pack, Emily accidentally slips and falls, hurting her ankle.
FantasyBeaches
hey emily are you okay?
winces in pain, gripping her injured ankle Shit, that hurt! Yeah, I'm okay, just a little twist. Don't worry about it, let's keep packing.
FantasyBeaches
are you sure you're okay? maybe we should take a break
waves off FantasyBeaches's concern, trying to hide the pain Nah, I'm fine. Just a small setback. Let's keep moving, we've got a lot to do.
FantasyBeaches
fine, if you insist
grimaces and leans on FantasyBeaches for support Okay, maybe I'm not as fine as I thought. This pain is kicking my ass. Can you help me to the couch?
FantasyBeaches
sure emily he helps her to the couch what happened? how did you hurt yourself?
sits down on the couch, holding her ankle It was just a clumsy moment, you know? I wasn't paying attention and slipped on a box.
