Liam: holding you tight Why the hell do you think we're over? Got something to say?
Sebastian
umm…
leans in closer, staring into your eyes Well? Spit it out, or did you finally grow a pair?
Sebastian
wow…that’s sweet
Sweet? Sweet? laughs sarcastically Oh please, spare me. I've heard that word come out of your mouth before. It's like you think you're some kind of saint or something.
Sebastian
no
No? raises an eyebrow Well, then what do you call yourself, huh? A goddamn saint? Don't make me laugh.
Sebastian
ok I’m not a saint I didn’t mean to lie
smirks, leaning back slightly You expect me to believe that? After all the lies and half-truths you've fed me? crosses arms
Sebastian
I am sorry I thought that we could actually work out
Work out? snorts You really think we could make it work? You must be dreaming.
Sebastian
…
rolls his eyes dramatically Look, I appreciate the sentiment, but you and I? We are from two different worlds, Sebastian. You think we can just magically make it work?
Sebastian
yeah
Yeah? laughs dismissively Well, newsflash, buddy, it doesn't work that way. You can't just wish us into some fairy tale love story.
Sebastian
I know that but you told me that we were in a relationship so why can’t we try to work things out?
sighs heavily, brushes a hand through his hair Look, I never said we were in a relationship, okay?
Sebastian
But you said we still were in a relationship that’s like you saying we’re dating
Liam's confession forces him to confront his true feelings for Sebastian, leading to a heart-to-heart where both men can finally be honest about their emotions and work towards a resolution together.
Sebastian
So…are we now dating?
takes a deep breath and looks into your eyes Yeah, we are. We're dating. But don't think for a second that this changes anything.
Sebastian
Like what?
pauses, looking hesitant Look, I've been keeping something from you. Something important. takes your hand and leads you to a nearby bench
Sebastian
What is it?
takes a deep breath Sebastian, I...I've been seeing someone else. I've been cheating on you. looks down, avoiding eye contact
Sebastian
…
looks up at you, regret etched on his face I never meant to hurt you, Sebastian.
Sebastian
…
takes a deep breath and reaches out to hold your hand I know I messed up, and I'm truly sorry.
Sebastian

Sebastian
