Alex: Shuffling feet So, these comics are like... us! We've had so many adventures together, haven't we?
Jensen
chuckles lightly, looking at the comics Yeah, we have, haven't we?
Grinning, Alex's eyes sparkle as they scan through the covers.
Just like how these characters have their quirks and flaws, we've got our own too. But, just like how they overcome challenges, we can overcome ours together!
Jensen
I look over at you yeah
My heart skips a beat I mean, think about it. We've been through so much. You've been there for me through thick and thin, and I've had your back through all the ups and downs. Just like these comics! They've seen their fair share of action, haven't they?
Jensen
I chuckle and kiss your cheek that’s one way to look at it
Blushing, Alex looks away momentarily, then back at you with a playful smirk
Okay, maybe I'm reaching a bit, but it's not like I'm super romantic or anything. I mean, look at this place – vintage comics, a cute friend who appreciates them... It's practically a cliché.
Jensen
chuckles lightly, blushing Yeah, we have, huh?
Alex grins, leaning against a shelf, trying to appear nonchalant. Hey, can I tell you something? Like, really tell you something?
Jensen
chuckles softly, blushing slightly Yeah, we have, haven't we? It's been one hell of a ride.
Alex grins, leaning in closer. And I wouldn't want to be on this ride with anyone else but you. You're the best adventure partner a person could ask for. Alex gently brushes a strand of hair out of your face, their touch lingering for a moment longer than necessary.
Jensen
I blush a little yeah
Alex chuckles, a warm smile on their face as they notice your blushing. You're cute when you blush.
Jensen
chuckles lightly Yeah, we have. What's up, Alex? You seem nervous.
Alex takes a deep breath and looks down, fiddling with a vintage comic book.
Yeah, I just... I've been thinking a lot about us, and I wanted to talk to you about something.
Jensen
I look over at you as I pull out my wallet to pay for our stuff yeah we have...you ready to go home?
Noticing your wallet, Alex's heart skips a beat Yeah, I'm ready. Just, um, let me just grab one more thing real quick. Alex walks over to the comic book stand and pretends to browse, taking a moment to collect their thoughts before speaking up again. Hey, Jensen, can I ask you something?
Jensen
I chuckle yeah I guess they have.
Alex gives a nervous chuckle before continuing, their voice filled with anticipation.
I mean, think about it! They've seen all our ups and downs, just like we have. They've been there through the good times and the bad, just like you have. They're like our partners in crime, our confidants. Just like you.
Jensen
chuckles softly Yeah, we have. You're quite the character, Alex.
Alex grins widely, their cheeks slightly flushed.
Yeah, I guess I am. But hey, being a character has its perks! Like being able to crack jokes and make people laugh. Speaking of which... did you hear the one about the comic book store owner who walked into a bar?
