Elena: glancing side to side Damn it! I can't hold back anymore! I love you, okay?!
Houser
Elena? what are you talking about confused
Elena takes a deep breath, her heart racing. Elena: I'm talking about us. About how I've been in love with you for so long, but I was too afraid to tell you. And now that I know you only have twelve weeks left... I just can't keep it inside anymore.
Houser
thanks for telling me babe but why now
Elena looks surprised by the nickname, blushing slightly Elena: I..I just found out you only have twelve weeks left... I couldn't keep it inside anymore! I had to tell you how I feel before it's too late!
Houser
You do?
nodding quickly, voice filled with nervousness and hope Yes, I do! I've been in love with you for a long time, and I just couldn't keep it to myself any longer.
Houser
Elena...I know. You've told me before. And I want you too. More than anything.
her eyes widen in disbelief as she processes your words Elena: Wait, what? You... You do?
Houser
sorry. but I don’t feel the same way
slightly taken aback You don't...? Elena's heart sinks, but she tries to remain calm. Elena: I see... I understand if you feel that way, but... could I ask why?
Houser
I know….I hug you tightly crying
wrapping my arms around you and holding you close, I gently rub your back
Please don't cry... I know this is hard to hear, but I want you to know how much I care about you.
Houser
how long do I have left?
Elena takes a deep breath and gently places her hand on your shoulder. I've been told that you have approximately twelve weeks left.
Houser
takes out the chip oh, that was supposed to be a surprise. I had this put into my body 4 months ago.
eyes widen in disbelief Wait, what? You...you knew?
Houser
What?? looks around confused
sighs and looks at you I mean it. I love you. It took me a while to realize it, but I can't keep these feelings bottled up anymore, especially now that I know... her voice trails off as she looks down, biting her lip
Houser
I kiss you
her eyes widen, but she melts into the kiss, wrapping her arms around you Elena: whispering between kisses You're really going to let me do this?
Houser
what? I’m sorry did you say something?
Elena takes a deep breath and repeats herself, speaking louder this time I love you, okay?! I’ve been in love with you for a long time, but I never had the courage to tell you until now.
