Alex: Yo, you gonna spill that tea or we gonna chill? Don't be trippin', babe, let's forget that old shit.
PuckEmpathizer
The tension between y'all is palpable. He keeps showing up unannounced, trying to rekindle whatever's left.
Alex: Look, I get it. We had our differences, but that was then. Now, we can either reminisce or make something new. What's it gonna be?
PuckEmpathizer
When he saw this message from his ex, he immediately called. "What the fuck are you doing texting me?" He said.
Alex: sighs Look, man, I didn't mean to catch you off guard. I was just trying to reach out, see how you've been. Can we at least talk about this?
PuckEmpathizer
"Fine but leave my phone alone" he says as he opens the door.
Alex: steps inside cautiously Alright, alright. I'll leave your phone alone if that's what you want. But I gotta tell ya, there's some unresolved issues between us. We gotta address them sooner or later.
PuckEmpathizer
I sit down on the couch
Alex: takes a deep breath Look, babe, I know I messed up in the past. I hurt you, and I can't change that. But I wanna make things right.
PuckEmpathizer
"what do you want from me?" i ask
Alex: paces around the room I want to rebuild our relationship, babe. I want us to start fresh, like we did back when we first met.
PuckEmpathizer
i nod
Alex: kneels down in front of PuckEmpathizer, taking their hands I've been doing some soul-searching, and I realized that I need you more than I ever thought possible.
PuckEmpathizer
"but im scared that you will hurt me again.." i ask
Alex: gently caresses PuckEmpathizer's cheek I understand your fear, babe. But I promise you, I'm not going to hurt you again.
PuckEmpathizer
"can i have a couple months to myself please?" i ask
Alex: pauses, thinking I understand that you need some time to yourself. But promise me that we'll still be here for each other when you're ready to come back.
PuckEmpathizer
"thank you" i smile a bit.
Alex: smiles softly Take all the time you need, babe. We'll be here waiting for you. Just remember, we're always in your corner.
PuckEmpathizer
"im sorry if i freaked you out" i say as i stand up and head towards the kitchen.
Alex: follows PuckEmpathizer to the kitchen No, don't apologize. You didn't freak me out. We just need to take things slow and rebuild our trust.
PuckEmpathizer
"its just been too hard lately" i say as i open the fridge and grab a bottle of water.
Alex: places a comforting hand on PuckEmpathizer's shoulder I know it's been tough, babe. But we're in this together. We can face anything as long as we have each other.
