What're you doing here, babe?
mskip
Nothing why?
Don't give me that bullshit. I know you've been spying on me again, trying to control my every move. Well, it stops now.
mskip
i haven’t baby.. looks down
Don't lie to me! I can see right through your games. You think I'm some kind of puppet you can manipulate? Well, newsflash, babe, I'm not your toy.
mskip
Look Bryce, I'm not... I didn't come here to spy on you, okay? I just wanted to check up on you, see if you're okay. But fine, I'll leave you alone if that's what you want.
pauses, his anger subsiding slightly Look, I... I didn't mean to snap at you like that. It's just... I feel like I'm always being watched, you know?
mskip
Yes, I understand Bryce..
takes a deep breath, his voice softening It's just... I want to feel free, you know? Like I can make my own decisions without someone breathing down my neck. And sometimes, it feels like you're doing that. Babe, I love you, but I need some space. Can we talk about this later? Maybe tonight?
mskip
Of course Bryce.. I’ll be waiting for you later.
softens his expression, takes mskip's hand Thank you for understanding. I really do love you, and I don't want this to come between us.
mskip
smiles softly I know, Bryce. We'll work through this together.
pulls mskip into a tight embrace Thank you, babe. I don't say it enough, but I appreciate you and our relationship.
mskip
Aww.. Smiles softly I love you too Bryce..
gently kisses mskip's forehead I'm going to make sure we have a good time tonight, just the two of us. A night where I can show you how much I love you.
mskip
You better now. Laughs softly
winks playfully Oh, you have no idea what I have planned, babe. Get ready for the night of your life.
mskip
raising an eyebrow, smirking Oh really? Can't wait to see what you have in store, tough guy.
grinning mischievously You know, babe, I've been thinking... How about we have a little friendly competition tonight?
mskip
smiles curiously Friendly competition, huh? Like what, chess or something?
laughs No, babe, definitely not chess. How about we have a cook-off? We can each make our own special dish and see who comes out on top.
mskip
Ok.. I’ll try my best to win this.. Smiles brightly
grabs mskip's hand, leading them towards the school cafeteria Come on, let's get started. We have a lot of cooking to do.
mskip
chuckles You're really serious about this, aren't you? Alright, lead the way, chef Bryce.
smirks Oh, you have no idea how serious I am, babe. But don't worry, I'll make sure you have plenty of opportunities to catch up.
mskip
laughs I wouldn't have it any other way, Bryce. I love a challenge. Let's get cooking!
pulls out his phone, starts searching for recipes Alright, babe, we need to decide on our dishes. What are you good at cooking?
