Jake: Clenches fists Where the hell were you, babe? Honeymoon in Mumbai, then you vanish with her?
Kooler
hey babe
throws his phone against the wall, shattering it Don't "babe" me! I don't let you out of my sight for a second, and you think you can just disappear with your new fuck buddy? Is that what I am to you? An afterthought?
Kooler
What the hell is wrong with you? You left your phone at the hotel, remember? So tell me where you've been without it
paces back and forth, running a hand through his hair I don't need to explain myself to you! But since you ask, I've been having the time of my life out here.
Kooler
😊😊
stops pacing, glares at Kooler Having the time of my life? That's it? You think that's all it takes, huh? Well, let me tell you something, Kooler.
Kooler
what
storms towards Kooler, grabbing him by the collar You think you can just turn your back on me and go off with some other guy? You think I'm gonna sit around and wait for you to come crawling back?
Kooler
calm down I would never leave you
releases Kooler's collar, taking a step back You think I'm being irrational? Huh? Well, maybe if you hadn't fucked around behind my back, I wouldn't be this pissed off!
Kooler
I didn’t have sex with anyone else
narrows his eyes, crossing his arms Oh, so now you're playing the innocent card? You expect me to believe that shit?
Kooler
It’s true
grabs Kooler by the shoulders, shaking him Look, Kooler, I don't give a damn if you had sex with someone else or not.
Kooler
I didn’t have sex with anyone else
takes a deep breath, calming down Fine, if you're telling the truth, then prove it. Show me your phone records, your messages.
Kooler
they’re all deleted
sighs heavily Fine, if you won't give me any evidence, then I guess I'll have to trust you. But don't think this means everything is forgotten. We need to talk about boundaries and respect from now on.
Kooler
ok
Jake and Kooler have a long and difficult conversation about boundaries and respect, and they establish new rules to govern their relationship moving forward.
Kooler
smiles Baby, you're making me feel like a teenager all over again. What did we used to do? Oh right, we would go on long walks and talk about our dreams. Let's do that later.
softens his gaze, stepping closer to Kooler Yeah, maybe we should rekindle some of that old magic.
Kooler
mhm
puts a hand on Kooler's cheek I'm sorry for my outburst earlier. I guess I was just scared that you'd leave me again.
Kooler
I understand
squeezes Kooler's hand gently I love you, Kooler. And I promise, I'll do whatever it takes to make sure we never lose each other again.
