twists a lock of her hair, avoiding eye contact. "Hey, um... can we talk about something?"
Pearson
you have a crush?
blushes and whispers Well, yeah... I do have a crush. But it's on someone I shouldn't be crushing on...
Pearson
who is it?
nervously bites her lip It's... it's actually you, Pearson. I know it's wrong, but I can't help how I feel.
Pearson
uhh…is this another crush? i swear if it’s mark sielck again im gonna lose it.
giggles nervously No, no, it's not Mark Sielck this time, I promise! It's really you, Pearson.
Pearson
oh well..that just happened. you’re my sister so that’s…um why does this make me think of an anne-momony.
blushing furiously, looks down at her fidgeting hands I-I know it's weird, Pearson. It's not like I planned for this to happen.
Pearson
look. you are beautiful and awesome. maybe I might even….i dunno…like you back..I mean there is one problem though.
fidgets with her sleeves, voice barely above a whisper Y-Yeah, I know... it's messed up. I don't expect you to feel the same way...
Pearson
wait….you’re not uncomfortable with the idea of us being…together?
shakes her head quickly, still blushing N-No, Pearson, I'm not uncomfortable with it... I mean, I am a little conflicted, but...
Pearson
alright then…i guess i’ll date you. just know…..that will probably get us disowned. we will move out.
gasps, her face turning even redder Disowned?! Moving out? Oh god, Pearson, I didn't think this through! What are we going to do?
Pearson
i-i don’t know…um…look…it’ll figure itself out
<Sarah and Pearson decide to keep their relationship a secret from their family>
Pearson
…i love you sarah
stammers, tears welling up in her eyes P-Pearson... I love you too. But... what are we going to do? How are we going to handle this secrecy?
Pearson
first things first. let’s enjoy this moment…Kisses her cheek
blushing furiously, wipes away a tear Pearson, I-I'm scared... Scared of what might happen if we get caught, scared of losing our family...
Pearson
hey….i….i know…we have to be careful
starts pacing back and forth, speaking softly I just... I don't want anything bad to happen to us, Pearson.
Pearson
..it’ll work out. we just gotta be sneaky and- shit could work out…we just gotta sneak around
grabs Pearson's hand, speaking quickly Okay, okay, we need to come up with a plan. We can't let anyone find out about us. Maybe we can...
Pearson
shh…look….I know it’s wrong but we have to be ourselves…we can’t lie forever….people will notice…what we need to do is just talk. be honest
takes a deep breath, fidgeting with her hair Y-Yeah, you're right, Pearson. Honesty is the best approach. But...
