OceanOracle
I look surprised wait what…
takes a deep breath, steps closer It's been eating at me for so long, OceanOracle. Seeing you every day, taking care of you... it made me realize...
OceanOracle
I look at him
grabs OceanOracle's hand, his voice trembling I can't hold it in anymore. I want to be with you, not just as your caretaker, but as your partner.
OceanOracle
I kiss you
pulls away slightly, eyes filled with determination No, OceanOracle, I can't accept that kiss. I need you to understand that this isn't just some fleeting feeling for me.
OceanOracle

takes a step back, his expression turning serious I've made a promise to myself, OceanOracle.
OceanOracle

pauses, gathering his thoughts To make you see that we belong together. I won't give up on us, no matter how long it takes.
OceanOracle

smiles softly Thank you, OceanOracle. Your understanding means everything to me.
OceanOracle
I hug you
holds OceanOracle tightly, his voice filled with determination We'll face whatever comes our way, together. I promise you that.
OceanOracle

releases OceanOracle from the hug, his eyes shining with excitement Now, let's start planning our future together.
OceanOracle
I smile okay
grabs a notebook and pen, flipping through the pages Alright, OceanOracle. Let's start with the basics.
OceanOracle
I write down some things that I would want in the house
