⎯                 did he understand? truly? it wasn't like wesley to be so pessimistic, but this time, it felt different. their was an air around their conversation that didn't sit right with his bones; minuscule creatures that latched onto his skin, sneaking their way beneath flesh to grasp their claws into every fiber of his being. he wishes joshua's words were enough to take away his anxieties, but even with their softness, they barely break the surface. joshua offers him a moment of reassurance, dark eyes gazing into his blue ones, and for a selfish moment, wesley finds himself basking in his attention. "I'm being an idiot," wesley admits, shoulders falling as he does. "you've never not kept your word before, and I don't know why I'm being so.." the brunette trails, pausing. he soaks in their future and how this will benefit them. wesley wished he had an ounce of courage joshua had, the ability to be so sure of something without fearing the uncertainty. trembling fingers reach him amid his thought, and wesley leans into their familiar, comforting touch. joshua wasn't invincible, and neither was wesley⎯or fear. he had to let him do this, he couldn't hold joshua back; that was the real issue. wesley's own fear was detrimental. "I do trust you," wesley offers his own reassurance this time, "and I know we'll be fine⎯you always have everything under control, don't you?" he cracks a smile, a small one that turns in the corner of his mouth.

[julybloom]

joshua could feel the weight of wesley's uncertainty hanging heavily in the air, his own heart aching at the sight of his partner struggling with his fears. he wanted nothing more than to ease wesley's worries, to wrap him in a blanket of reassurance and protectiveness. "you're not being an idiot, wesley," joshua murmured softly, his voice filled with warmth and understanding. "it's natural to have doubts, especially when we're facing something as uncertain as this." he reached out, gently brushing his fingers against wesley's trembling hand, offering a comforting squeeze. he could sense the turmoil within his partner, the battle between his fears and his trust in joshua. "you don't have to be as sure as i am," joshua said gently, his dark eyes meeting wesley's with unwavering sincerity. "i'll carry that weight for both of us. and together, we'll navigate through whatever challenges come our way." he couldn't help but smile at wesley's attempt to lighten the mood, his heart swelling with love for the man beside him. "yes, i always try to keep things under control," he replied with a soft chuckle. "but even if things don't go exactly as planned, i promise you, we'll find a way through it together. you and me, every step of the way."

going outside and feeling the night air made her sober up slightly as she waited for benson to pick her up. she could feel her heart beating out of her chest in anticipation and she didn't know if her stomach was turning from drinking so much or now she had to put those words into action. maybe this was the push she needed to put her feelings out there, even though she might not remember it fully tomorrow. her smile widened when she saw him pull up and reach out to wrap her arm around his. "more than ready, thank you for picking me up... you wouldn't have had to if you just hung around." she teased with a little shake of her head. "thank you for picking me up. you could have been doing... what were you doing by the way?" she said as she leaned into his side while they headed over this car. even being this close made her heart beat faster, and she just hoped that he wouldn't be able to feel it. as she climbed into the passenger's seat of his car, she got comfortable before leaning against the middle console and giving him another smile. "i think we still have some business to settle." she said with a chuckle. judging by his tone on the phone and the fact that he was here picking her up, she had a feeling that he was alright with her proposition.

[julybloom]

benson couldn't help but feel a rush of relief wash over him as he saw her waiting outside, her smile lighting up the darkness of the night. he returned her grin as she wrapped her arm around his, the warmth of her touch sending a pleasant shiver down his spine. "of course, i wouldn't leave you hanging," he replied, his voice soft with affection. "and i was just finishing up some work stuff, nothing too exciting." he chuckled as she leaned into his side, the proximity making his heart race with anticipation. he tried to keep his composure as they headed towards his car, but he couldn't deny the flutter of excitement in his chest at the thought of spending more time with her. as she settled into the passenger's seat, he couldn't help but feel a surge of happiness at her words. he knew they had some unresolved issues to address, but he was more than willing to work through them together. "absolutely," he agreed, his smile widening as he started the car and pulled out onto the road. "i'm glad we're finally getting the chance to talk about everything. and who knows, maybe we'll be able to settle more than just business tonight."

amber mastered the perfect way to manipulate a person, she goes in with sweet smiles before going for the kill.. which end results leads to her getting exactly what she wanted. “i’m taking a guess that your girlfriend isn’t that special someone to thaw that heart of yours? considering that you would do something like this.” brow quirks, chuckling lightly as she shook her head. “how tragic, well if it comes down to it i’d just have to inform her somehow.” wouldn’t enjoy being the one to bring bad news, but if max didn’t do as told she was going to follow through. kind of evil of her, yes, but she didn’t care. noticing how he’s suddenly interested causes her to quirk a brow, gleam in her eyes sparkling. “i just need you to assist me in getting someone out of my life..” she trails off, inching closer towards the male. eyes darts upwards to look at him, “i don’t care how you do it, but i just need him gone.. and what’s in it for you? your girlfriend not finding out that you fucked someone else.”

[julybloom]

max felt a cold shiver run down his spine as he listened to amber's manipulative words. he knew she was dangerous, but he never imagined she would stoop so low as to threaten his relationship. his jaw clenched as he tried to keep his composure, his mind racing with thoughts of how to handle the situation. he couldn't let amber manipulate him into doing something he knew was wrong, but he also couldn't risk losing his girlfriend. "i don't know what you're talking about, amber," he replied, his voice steady despite the turmoil raging inside him. "my girlfriend means everything to me, and i would never do anything to hurt her." he tried to keep his tone firm, hoping to convey that he wouldn't be swayed by her manipulative tactics. but deep down, he couldn't shake the feeling of dread that lingered in the pit of his stomach. "i can't help you with whatever you're planning," he continued, his gaze unwavering as he met her eyes. "and if you try to threaten me or my relationship again, i'll have no choice but to report you." he knew it was a risky move, but he refused to let amber manipulate him any further. he just hoped that his resolve would be enough to protect himself and his relationship from her harmful intentions.

[angelsdvsts]

and maybe this is why their relationship worked so well.. they actually communicate with one another — figure out the bud of the issue and squish it before it gets into a bigger issue. her insecurities always pushing her to fight with him when it was just a need of reassurance. “definitely not, sometimes i don’t think i deserve any of it.” a pang of sadness in her tone, yet his words and actions bring a certain type of comfort to her. making her realize that everything will be okay in the end and she really had nothing to worry about. arms moves to wrap herself around him, needing the comfort only he could provide. “you make me so happy, sorry i get all jealous and keep questioning you.. i don’t want to, but it just happens..” she trails off mumbling against him. a smile tugs at the corner of her lips, happiness back in her eyes. “yeah? it’ll be so much fun! it’s on thursday night.”

[julybloom]

lucas felt a surge of warmth and affection wash over him as he listened to her words. he couldn't help but admire how they always managed to talk things out and resolve their issues, even when insecurities threatened to drive a wedge between them. "you deserve all the love and happiness in the world, shayla," he murmured softly, his arms instinctively wrapping around her as he held her close. "and you definitely deserve everything i give you and more." he pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head, his heart swelling with love for her. he knew how much her insecurities plagued her, but he also knew that he would do everything in his power to reassure her and make her feel loved. "it's okay, sweetheart," he whispered, his voice filled with tenderness. "i understand why you get jealous, but you have nothing to worry about. i'm yours, completely and utterly." he felt her relax against him, her smile returning and her eyes lighting up with happiness once more. it was moments like these that made him realize just how lucky he was to have her in his life. "i'm so glad i make you happy," he replied, his own smile mirroring hers. "and i can't wait for thursday night. it's going to be amazing, just like every moment i get to spend with you."

Andrew watched her carefully, heart still pounding as he tried to figure out what her next move was. Was Sadie's heart truly set on breaking up? He wondered how someone could give up so easily, but maybe he was in the wrong for even trying to keep them together, for begging. He tried to remain hopeful that she'd listen to him, that she'd see it all as he did but when Sadie looked at him, he felt his heart break once more. "You think this is better, then?" Drew swallowed hard, a hand reaching up to scratch at his eyebrow as he refused to look at her, eyes fixed on his shoes. "You'd really rather throw it all away than try 'cause you're afraid... that what? Someone's gonna be unfaithful? That it's gonna be too much?" It hurt so much worse than any hockey related injury he'd ever had—it was worse than breaking his nose, getting hit in the face with a puck, and while this one hadn't happened to him personally, he also figured it was worse than having your face stepped on by someone wearing skates. His eyes welled up with tears and Drew tried to shake them away, the hand on his face finally running through his hair. "I just... I thought we were worth all... the shit, I guess. I love you, Sadie." He just wanted her to know. It didn't even matter if she loved him, he knew he couldn't let her go without knowing.

[julybloom]

Sadie felt a heavy weight settle in her chest as she listened to andrew's heartfelt words. She could see the pain etched in his features, could feel the raw emotion emanating from him, and it tore at her heart in ways she couldn't fully articulate. Her own heart ached with the weight of their impending breakup, but she knew deep down that it was the right decision. She couldn't continue to ignore the doubts and uncertainties that had been gnawing at her for far too long. "Drew," she murmured softly, her voice barely above a whisper as she reached out to gently touch his arm. "I… I know this hurts, and I'm sorry. I never wanted to hurt you." She struggled to find the right words, to explain the turmoil that had been consuming her for weeks now. "It's not about being afraid of someone being unfaithful or it being too much," she continued, her voice trembling with emotion. "It's about… About us, drew. I don't think we're meant to be together." Tears welled up in her own eyes as she met his gaze, her heart breaking at the pain she saw reflected in his eyes. "I know you thought we were worth it, and maybe we were for a while," she admitted, her voice choked with emotion. "But sometimes… Sometimes love isn't enough." She took a shaky breath, her hand trembling as she reached up to wipe away her tears. "I… I love you too, drew," she whispered, her voice filled with love and regret. "But I think it's time for both of us to move on, to find happiness apart from each other." As much as it pained her to say the words, she knew deep down that it was the right decision for both of them. And as she watched him struggle to hold back his tears, she knew that she had to let him go, even if it broke her heart in the process.

[angelsdvsts]

was this their moment? to squash whatever it is between the pair and discover if they could actually be friendly towards one another? tension was thick as ever, eyes scanning all over her features trying to get a read on the female, wondering what she was thinking about. lips tilts upwards, chuckles falling swiftly afterwards. "joking, i know at times i was horrible. i didn't mean it," he states -- a push at new found friendship? jake listens to her words before nodding his head swiftly, "i mean, i could definitely do that. so, what is it about me that makes you want to punch me? is it my irresistible face?" couldn't help, but tease trying to make it all light-hearted, yet be his annoying self as well.

[julybloom]

sasha felt a mix of emotions swirling within her as she stood face to face with jake, the tension palpable between them. she couldn't help but wonder if this was their chance to finally put aside their differences and move forward as friends. as he spoke, a small smile tugged at the corners of her lips, his attempt at humor easing some of the tension between them. "yeah, you were pretty unbearable at times," she replied, her tone light yet tinged with a hint of sincerity. "but hey, we all have our moments, right?" she watched him closely, her eyes searching his face for any sign of insincerity. despite their rocky history, she couldn't deny that there was something about jake that intrigued her, something that kept drawing her back to him. his teasing remark brought a laugh to her lips, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes playfully. "oh please, don't flatter yourself," she retorted, her tone teasing yet affectionate. "it's definitely not your irresistible face that makes me want to punch you." she took a step closer to him, her gaze softening as she met his eyes. "but maybe, just maybe, there's more to you than meets the eye," she added, a small smile playing at her lips. "and maybe we can figure out how to be friends without wanting to throttle each other."

[angelsdvsts]

as feelings were expressed, he couldn't help, but feel his heart breaking in the process. unable to convey that he didn't want to lose the other, but it was like all the odds were against them. the more they tried the more broken they become. maybe it was time to finally let go. "so.. what does this mean for us? are we done for good?" crack of his voice falls, eyes staring at the ground unable to look up knowing that tears might form. not knowing how things got so complicated, how one little action could change the course of relationship. was it selfish of caspian to want him to continue to fight for him despite him pushing aaron away? listening to his words, a deep sigh falls from his lips. "it's going to take a lot more than words for me to actually believe you. i'm not forgiving you so easily, i hope you know that."

[julybloom]

aaron felt a heavy weight settle in his chest as caspian's words hung in the air, each one like a dagger piercing his heart. he had never wanted things to come to this, never imagined that their relationship would reach such a breaking point. but here they were, standing on the precipice of uncertainty, unsure of where they would go from here. "i don't know, caspian," he replied, his voice barely above a whisper, his heart aching with the pain of their impending separation. "i don't know if we're done for good or if there's still a chance for us." he struggled to meet caspian's gaze, knowing that the hurt and disappointment in his eyes would only serve to deepen the chasm between them. "i want to believe that we can work through this," he continued, his voice trembling with emotion. "but i understand if you need time to heal, if you need space to figure things out." he took a deep breath, steeling himself for what he was about to say next. "and i know that it's going to take more than words to earn back your trust," he admitted, his voice filled with regret. "but i'm willing to do whatever it takes to make things right, to show you that i'm serious about us." he reached out to gently touch caspian's arm, his touch tentative yet filled with a desperate longing to make things right. "please, caspian," he pleaded, his voice cracking with emotion. "give me a chance to prove myself to you. i promise that i won't let you down again."

[angelsdvsts]

it was difficult for her, seeing him with someone else -- he was clearly happier. it was selfish of her to want him all to herself, especially since the two of them didn't work out to begin with. promising each other that friendship would always remain intact, but she isn't so sure about that anymore. regardless, if she wanted him in her life she had to learn to live with the fact even if it kills her inside. "you don't have to be sorry," she shakes her head. a pang of sadness in her tone, eyes lifting as tears forms, yet there was a light smile on her face. "i'm really happy that you found someone who could make you feel the way that you do." and she was glad that he finally found it, even if it hurts knowing that it's not her. "i'm sorry, this isn't fair of me." light chuckles falls from lips, glancing away from gaze as she blows out a breath. using the sleeve of her sweater to wipe her tears before they fell.

[julybloom]

tanner felt a pang of guilt and sadness wash over him as he watched mariposa struggle to maintain her composure. he knew that seeing him with someone else must be difficult for her, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of remorse for causing her pain. "it's not your fault, mariposa," he murmured, his voice filled with regret. "i never wanted to hurt you, and i'm sorry if my happiness with someone else is causing you pain." he reached out to gently touch her arm, his touch tentative yet filled with a sense of empathy. "i'm grateful for our friendship, mariposa," he continued, his voice tinged with sadness. "and i hope that we can still be there for each other, even if things have changed between us." he met her gaze, his heart heavy with the weight of their shared history. "i want you to be happy too, mariposa," he added, his voice soft yet filled with sincerity. "and if there's anything i can do to support you, please don't hesitate to ask." he watched as she wiped away her tears, his heart aching with the knowledge that he was the cause of her pain. "you deserve to find happiness too, mariposa," he murmured, his voice filled with genuine concern. "and i'll always be here for you, no matter what."

there wasn’t a day that goes by where she isn’t constantly showing her love for him in anyway that she could, whether it was sending him good morning text messages, waking up in the morning and showing up at his door steps with breakfast, even staying up late at night talking on the phone when something was bothering her. comment left her cheeks feeling warm, smile tugging at the corner of her lips. “you’ve always been such an important person in my life — i don’t know how you couldn’t see it.. from the moment we met it was like you stole the stars and place them in my eyes… and for then on i’ve been completely hooked.” and she didn’t know when it happened or how it happened, but along the way of tangled friendship she completely fallen. his thumb lightly tracing her cheek causes her to easily melt into his warmth, eyes shutting for a split second, enjoying the pure bliss. “and you’re mine… the one person i want to go to just ramble and talk about my day because i know you’ll listen.. thank you for making me feel seen and loved.” the shared kiss reflected everything she needed to know, how he felt and how she felt. heart thumps against ribcage, unsure if it’s from the intensity of kiss or his words. nose brushes against his, breath mingling together, “i hope you know that i’m here for you in every sense that you need.. lean on me, let me take all your worries away.” lips still lingering against his, not wanting to pull away from the little bubble they created. “can i spend the night?”

[julybloom]

carson felt a warmth spread through him as he listened to her heartfelt words, his heart swelling with love for her. he had always known that she cared for him deeply, but to hear her express it so openly and earnestly touched him in a way he couldn't quite put into words. "you're everything to me, you know that?" he murmured, his voice soft yet filled with emotion. "from the moment i met you, i knew you were someone special. someone who would change my life in ways i never imagined." he reached out to gently cup her cheek, his touch tender and filled with a love that ran deeper than words could express. "you're the stars in my sky, the light in my darkness," he whispered, his heart overflowing with love for her. "and i'm so grateful to have you in my life, more than you'll ever know." he leaned in to press a tender kiss to her lips, his heart racing with the intensity of their connection. as they kissed, he felt a sense of peace wash over him, knowing that he had found his home in her arms. "you don't ever have to ask, my love," he murmured against her lips, his voice filled with love and devotion. "you're always welcome to spend the night with me, to share your dreams and fears with me. i'll always be here for you, no matter what." he pulled her close, holding her tight against him as they shared a moment of pure bliss. in that moment, he knew that they were meant to be together, bound by a love that would withstand any challenge they faced. and he couldn't wait to spend the rest of his life showing her just how much she meant to him.

serena never wanted to give up on him, her love for him was far too great. the blonde’s aware of how he doesn’t really open up, building up those walls so high — those very barriers that she tries to break down each time he pulls away. it was heart wrenching seeing him go through something and not knowing how exactly to make things better. “i understand that it’s hard, i know trusting people don’t come so easily.. but i swear all i want in life is to gain that trust from you.. for you to see that not everyone in this world is going to betray that trust of yours.” could he see that she’s desperately trying to hold onto things? as he reaches out, finger slides into his interlocking them as she gives his hand a soft squeeze. “and you know that i’ll give you all the time you need.. i just don’t want you to go through anything alone or feel like you can’t tell me.” she states, eyes meeting his. “it’s us against the world.. your problems are mine and we’ll navigate through them together.”

[julybloom]

matteo felt a surge of emotion welling up inside him as he listened to serena's heartfelt words. he knew he had a tendency to keep his emotions bottled up, to push people away when things got tough, but her unwavering love and support touched him in a way he couldn't quite put into words. "i…i know, serena," he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper as he met her gaze, his heart overflowing with gratitude. "i know i haven't been the easiest person to be with, and i'm sorry for that. it's just…it's hard for me to open up, to let people in." he reached out to gently cup her cheek, his touch tender yet filled with a sense of vulnerability he rarely showed. "but you…you make it easier," he admitted, his voice tinged with emotion. "you make me want to tear down those walls, to let you in completely." he took a deep breath, steeling himself for what he was about to say next. "i want to trust you, serena," he continued, his voice filled with sincerity. "more than anything. and i know that you'll always be there for me, no matter what." he squeezed her hand back, his heart swelling with love for her. "i don't know what i did to deserve someone like you," he whispered, his eyes shining with unshed tears. "but i'm grateful for you every single day. and i promise to do my best to let you in, to share my fears and insecurities with you." he leaned in to press a soft kiss to her forehead, his heart overflowing with love and gratitude. "it's us against the world, serena," he murmured, his voice filled with determination. "and i wouldn't have it any other way."

it was a lot to take in, zander knows that… but still having her in his life was better than not having her in it at all, right? the two of them had been through so much together, did he really believe that the two of them could dictate what went wrong and fix it? he wants to think that the two of them can, that they’re stronger than any uprising issue. “i swear that if we both go for it that things would be different this time,” voice pleads in desperation, eyes searching the others. “of course it’s not going to be easy. i don’t expect it to… but i’m willing to put in the efforts.. see if there’s still something between us.. if not it’s great that we’re friends again, i mean i really can’t imagine a life without you.”

[julybloom]

paige listened to zander's words, her heart heavy with conflicting emotions. she had spent countless hours agonizing over their past, wondering if they could ever move past the hurt and resentment that had built up between them. and now, here he was, standing before her, pleading for another chance. part of her wanted to believe him, to believe that they could overcome their past and forge a new future together. but another part of her couldn't shake the fear that history would only repeat itself, that they would end up right back where they started. "i want to believe you, zander," she admitted, her voice soft yet tinged with uncertainty. "i want to believe that things could be different this time, that we could finally put the past behind us and move forward together." she met his gaze, searching for any sign of sincerity in his eyes. "but…but it's hard," she continued, her voice trembling slightly. "we've been down this road before, and it didn't end well. i'm scared of getting hurt again, of opening myself up to you only to have everything come crashing down." she took a deep breath, steeling herself for what she was about to say next. "but…but i'm willing to try," she murmured, her voice filled with determination. "i'm willing to give us another chance, to see if there's still something between us. because…because i can't imagine my life without you either, zander." she reached out to gently squeeze his hand, her heart aching with the weight of their shared history. "let's take it one step at a time, okay? and maybe…maybe we can finally find the happiness we've been searching for."

this was new territory for them, he wasn’t exactly sure how to navigate it — but it was nice to see her smile instead of scowling at him. she was just so pretty and he often catches himself staring at her — studying her the best that he could. “guess wishing on all those shooting stars that one day we’ll be friends works,” he playfully teases her, a hint of amusement glows in his eyes. this new found relationship between the two excites him — curious to see where it could lead. his gaze remains upon the female, falling back to what he did best — studying her, except this time he’s up close instead of far away. tongue darts outs, dampening lips slightly as he rises a brow. “really? you would’ve fooled me..” he trails off, wondering if all the time she picks fight it was just to gather his attention.

[julybloom]

hanna couldn't help but feel a warmth spread through her as she caught the playful glint in his eyes. it was a welcome change from the tension that often hung between them, and she found herself relaxing in his presence. she chuckled softly at his teasing words, the sound light and genuine. "well, it seems like all those shooting stars finally paid off," she replied, a playful smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "who would've thought we'd end up here?" as he continued to study her, she couldn't help but feel a flutter of anticipation in her chest. there was something about the way he looked at her, as if he were trying to unravel the mysteries of her soul, that both intrigued and unsettled her. his comment about her behavior caught her off guard, and she felt a blush creep into her cheeks. "i…i guess i have been a bit…fiery," she admitted, her gaze dropping slightly as she shifted uncomfortably under his scrutiny. "but it wasn't just to get your attention, you know. i just…i have a lot of feelings, and sometimes they come out in…unexpected ways." she looked up at him, her eyes searching his for any sign of understanding. "i'm glad we're giving this friendship thing a shot, though," she added, a genuine smile brightening her features. "who knows where it'll lead?"

josh felt a pang of guilt and sorrow as he looked into jada's eyes, seeing the pain and bitterness reflected there. he had hoped that reaching out to her would bring some semblance of closure, but now he realized the extent of the hurt he had caused. "i'm sorry, jada," he whispered, his voice heavy with remorse. "i know i hurt you, and i can't even begin to imagine what you're going through. but please, just hear me out." he took a step closer to her, his heart aching at the sight of her bruised and battered soul. "i don't claim to know what's best for you," he admitted, his voice tinged with sadness. "but i know that i can't just stand by and watch you suffer, knowing that i had a hand in it." he reached out to gently touch her arm, his touch tentative yet filled with a desperate longing to make things right. "i'm not here to disrupt your life, jada. i'm just…i'm here because i can't bear the thought of not trying to make things right between us." he watched as she struggled to find the right words, her defenses crumbling before his eyes. he could see the conflict raging within her, the battle between her heart and her head. "i understand if you don't feel anything for me anymore," he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper. "but please, just give me a chance to show you that i've changed. that i'm not the same person who hurt you before." he held her gaze, pouring every ounce of sincerity and love he felt for her into his words.

she’s  fighting  against  herself  ,  wants  to  let  him  back  in  ,  yet  she  fears  they’d  just  go  down  the  same  path  again  .  how  was  she  meant  to  trust  him  when  this  kept  happening  ?  “  how  many  times  have  you  fucking  said  that  though  ?  this  is  what  i’m  saying  ,  you  always  know  ,  but  you  keep  doing  it  .  ”  marisol  tears  her  gaze  away  from  his  ,  digits  nervously  fiddling  with  the  hem  of  her  top  .  a  part  of  her  still  has  hope  however  ,  yet  she  knows  she  has  to  be  careful  ,  shield  herself  from  getting  hurt  again  .  his  words  are  what  makes  her  give  in  however  ,  wants  to  believe  him  .  “  fuck  ,  fine  .  ”    she  sighs  ,  breaking  the  silence  that  had  taken  over  for  just  a  moment  ,  her  teeth  sinking  into  her  lesser  brim  .  “  but  i  need  to  see  that  you  mean  this  .  i'm  tired  ,  i  just  need  you  to  man  up  and  show  me  you  actually  give  a  fuck  about  us  ,  about  me  .  ”

kieran felt a knot tighten in his chest as marisol's words cut through him like a knife. he knew he had messed up, had let her down time and time again, and he couldn't blame her for being hesitant to trust him again. "i know, marisol," he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. "i've said it before, and i'll say it again: i messed up. i hurt you, and i hate myself for it." he watched as she nervously fiddled with the hem of her top, a pang of guilt washing over him as he realized the toll his actions had taken on her. he wanted nothing more than to make things right, to prove to her that he was capable of change. "i understand if you're tired, marisol," he continued, his voice soft yet filled with determination. "but please, give me a chance to show you that i mean this. that i'm willing to do whatever it takes to make things right between us." he took a step closer to her, reaching out to gently brush a strand of hair away from her face. "i care about you, marisol. more than i can put into words. and i'll do whatever it takes to earn back your trust, to show you that i give a fuck about us, about you." he held her gaze, hoping she could see the sincerity in his eyes, the genuine remorse he felt for his past mistakes. "please, give me a chance to make things right," he pleaded, his heart laid bare before her. "i promise i won't let you down again."

bubbly  laughter  suddenly  fades  ,  mia’s  expression  suddenly  clouded  with  confusion  ,  manicured  brows  knitting  together  as  she  tried  to  grasp  what  was  going  on  .  “  alright  ,  is  there  something  wrong  ?  ”  she  took  a  tentative  step  closer  to  him  ,  arms  crossing  over  her  chest  then  .  the  notion  that  love  could  somehow  fall  short  was  something  she  didn’t  understand  ,  had  always  been  a  firm  believer  that  it  held  the  key  for  everything  .  hues  scanned  his  features  ,  watches  him  silently  ,  almost  attempting  to  uncover  the  answer  to  the  million  questions  she  suddenly  had  .  “  help  me  understand  ,  ”  she  implored  ,  confusion  giving  way  to  a  desperate  need  to  know  what  went  through  his  mind  ,  “  because  to  me  ,  love  has  always  been  enough  .  .  .  has  always  been  everything  .  ”

taylor felt a pang of guilt as he watched mia's expression shift from laughter to confusion. he hadn't meant to dampen the mood, but he couldn't shake the weight of his own doubts and insecurities. "it's not that simple, mia," he began, his voice tinged with uncertainty as he struggled to articulate his thoughts. "i…i wish it were, believe me. but sometimes…sometimes love just isn't enough." he met her gaze, his heart heavy with the weight of his words. "i know it sounds cliché, but…but life is complicated. there are so many factors at play, so many things that can pull us apart." he took a step closer to her, reaching out to gently cup her cheek, his touch tender yet tinged with sadness. "i'm not saying love isn't important, because it is. it's just…it's not always enough to overcome everything else." he paused, searching her eyes for any sign of understanding, any glimmer of empathy. "i'm sorry if i've upset you," he murmured, his voice filled with regret. "i just…i needed you to know that sometimes even the strongest love can't fix everything." he hoped she would understand, hoped she would see the turmoil he was grappling with inside. but more than anything, he hoped she would forgive him for shattering the illusion of love's invincibility.

he  recognized  that  she  was  struggling  ,  that  something  was  tormenting  her  in  that  moment  ,  and  dario  couldn’t  help  but  to  wish  he  could  reassure  her  it’d  be  alright  .  “  listen  ,  you  can  trust  me  .  ”  and  he  means  it  too  ,  whatever  it  was  he’d  be  there  to  listen  to  help  her  make  it  better  .  he  reaches  out  ,  takes  her  hand  in  his  ,  giving  it  a  small  ,  yet  reassuring  squeeze  .  wants  her  to  realice  he’s  here  ,  wouldn’t  leave  her  side  no  matter  what  .  “  nothing  is  going  to  get  between  you  and  i  ,  i  promise  you  that  .  so  you  can  tell  me  whatever  it  is  .  i’m  not  going  to  judge  you  ,  it’s  not  going  to  do  anything  to  us  .  if  anything  it’ll  just  .  .  .  bring  us  closer  .  ”  he  paused  then  ,  giving  his  words  a  moment  to  sink  in  ,  hopes  she’ll  see  he  means  it  .  “  this  isn’t  going  to  change  the  way  i  feel  about  you  .  i  get  it’s  hard  ,  but  i’m  telling  you  ,  this  won’t  tear  us  apart  .  ”

sasha felt a wave of gratitude wash over her as dario reached out to her, his words of reassurance like a lifeline in the storm of her emotions. she knew she was struggling, grappling with thoughts and fears she couldn't quite put into words, but to have him there beside her, offering his unwavering support, meant more to her than she could express. "thank you," she whispered, her voice barely above a breath as she met his gaze, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears. "i…i appreciate you being here for me, dario. it's just…it's hard to put into words what's going on inside my head." she squeezed his hand back, drawing strength from the warmth of his touch, the sincerity in his eyes. "i want to believe you, i really do," she continued, her voice trembling with emotion. "but it's not just about trusting you, it's about trusting myself too. trusting that i can open up to you without pushing you away." she took a deep breath, steeling herself for what she was about to say next. "there are things…things i've never told anyone before," she admitted, her voice barely a whisper. "things i'm scared to confront, scared to admit even to myself. but…but maybe with you by my side, i can find the courage to face them." she looked into his eyes, searching for any sign of doubt or hesitation, but all she found was a steadfast resolve that filled her with a sense of hope she hadn't felt in a long time. "thank you for being patient with me, dario," she murmured, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "i promise i'll try to let you in, to trust you with all the messy parts of me. because…because i believe you when you say nothing will tear us apart."
