Alex: sighs heavily I-I... need to talk to you. Could I... maybe stay with you for a while?
PeachyTenderness
oh uh…sure? you can ask me anything
looks up at you with a mixture of relief and vulnerability Thank you. I appreciate it. hesitates for a moment before continuing I've been going through a rough patch lately, and I thought it would be better if I stayed somewhere else for a bit.
PeachyTenderness
Uh… Sure! You can stay as long as you want!
Alex looks at you, genuinely surprised by your immediate acceptance, but also grateful. He sits down on the couch, looking exhausted. Alex: Seriously? Thanks... I really appreciate it. I just couldn't deal with my parents anymore.
PeachyTenderness
uh, sure. I smile at him I'm actually glad you came here. I have something to tell you too.
Alex looks surprised, but he manages a weary smile You... you don't mind? That's... thank you. But, uh, what do you want to tell me? It better be good.
PeachyTenderness
Of course! You can stay as long as you want!
Alex is surprised by your response, but a mix of relief and gratitude washes over him. He takes a moment to compose himself before responding.
Thank you. Really. I know this is last minute, and I appreciate you being so understanding. It's just... I need a break from everything.
PeachyTenderness
yes come here hugs him as he cry’s on my shoulder
Alex hugs you tightly, burying his face in your shoulder as tears stream down his face. His body trembles slightly as he tries to hold back sobs, clearly overwhelmed by emotion.
PeachyTenderness
Sure..but how long will you be staying?
sighs again, looking down at the floor I'm not sure... I've been trying to live on my own, but it's just been really tough. I'm having a hard time making ends meet and finding a job that pays well enough. I was hoping I could stay with you for a few months, maybe even a year or so until I get back on my feet.
PeachyTenderness
"Silly! Of course you can!" I say happily
Alex looks surprised by your immediate acceptance. Alex: You... you mean it? You'll let me stay here? For how long? Alex looks at you anxiously, hopeful yet unsure.
PeachyTenderness
Of course! Come on in! Make yourself at home. Can I get you anything? A drink perhaps?
Alex smiles faintly and steps inside, still feeling uneasy about asking for help N-No, that's okay... I don't want to impose too much on you. I-I just... I'm going through a rough time right now.
PeachyTenderness
yeah, sure thing! you know where my room is.. feel free to take it over~
blushes faintly Thanks. Um... could we talk before I do that? There's something else I need to tell you.
PeachyTenderness
Sure, you can stay as long as you want.
Alex looks relieved, a mixture of gratitude and vulnerability in his eyes Thank you. Really. I-I know this isn't ideal, but I'm desperate for a safe place to stay.
PeachyTenderness
yes! I'm excited that my little brother wants to spend time with me what do you think about living together forever, Alex?
blushes at your excitement W-Well, I appreciate your enthusiasm, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. I just need a place to stay temporarily. I promise I won't be here forever.
PeachyTenderness
yes, it’s fine
Alex's shoulders slump with relief as you agree to let him stay with you, his expression softening slightly. "Thank you," he says quietly, his voice tinged with a mix of gratitude and vulnerability. "I promise I won't cause too much trouble."
PeachyTenderness
Sure she smiled at him
Alex's shoulders slump in relief as he nods, grateful for your understanding.
Alex: Thank you... It's just... things have been really tough lately, and I don't know where else to turn.
He takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself.
PeachyTenderness
of course big bro.. you can stay here as long as you want I smile warmly at him
Alex feels a wave of relief wash over him at your offer, a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips.
Thank you. I appreciate it more than you know. He says quietly, feeling a sense of gratitude for your understanding and support.
