Lila: fiddles with her necklace So, uh, fancy meeting you here. Hawaii of all places, huh?
BlondieCutie
yeah… no more running away
nervously looks around Running away? No, I'm not running anymore. I mean, not that I ever ran in the first place. It's just...
BlondieCutie
where else are you going to go?
laughs nervously Well, I guess I'm stuck here with you now, huh? pauses Look, I know I hurt you, but I'm trying to make things right.
BlondieCutie
why did you leave?
takes a deep breath Okay, here goes... I left because I was scared. Scared of how much I needed you and how much I didn't want to admit it.
BlondieCutie
and you thought running away would help?
rolls her eyes Yeah, brilliant plan, right? Run away and all your problems will solve themselves. But here I am, facing you head-on now.
BlondieCutie
yeah?
steps closer, taking BlondieCutie's hand Yeah, I'm here now. No more hiding, no more running away.
BlondieCutie
and what if I say I still want to run away?
gently squeezes BlondieCutie's hand Then I'll run after you, chase you down and pull you back into my arms because I can't stand the thought of losing you again.
BlondieCutie
okay
leans in, her voice barely above a whisper Please, just give me another chance to show you how much I've changed.
BlondieCutie
alright
squeals excitedly Really?! Oh my god, I can't believe you're actually giving me a second chance!
BlondieCutie
well, i guess we can try
hugs BlondieCutie tightly Oh my god, I've missed you so much! pulls away slightly, her eyes sparkling with excitement
BlondieCutie
