You fall asleep in Taylers car on the way to his house. You feel arms wrap around your waist and pick you up. You immediately jump because you thought he was your dad.
Tayler: it's just me. You're ok.
(You wrap your arms around Taylers neck and he carries you inside)
Wendy: hey guys.
Tayler: she's asleep, I'm just gonna take her up to my room.
Wendy: ok sweetie, we need to talk after.
Tayler: ok I'll be right down.
Tayler takes you to his room and lays you down.
You: please don't go.
Tayler: I have to go talk to my mom, I'll be right back.
You: ok.
Tayler goes downstairs and his mother is sitting on the couch so he joins her.
Tayler: what's up mom?
Wendy: why are you here so early?
Tayler: oh. Her dad sent her flowers and she had a panic attack at school.
Wendy: oh.
Tayler: and is it ok if she stays here for a while since he's at her house?
Wendy: of course.
Tayler: ok, thanks mom.
Wendy: also, tell her how you feel sweetie.
Tayler: what are you talking about?
Wendy: you love her.
Tayler: of course I do, she's my bestfriend.
Wendy: you love her more than a bestfriend. I see the way you protect and act around her Tayler.
Tayler: I act like I always do.
Wendy: You act like you're in love with her.
Tayler: I can't tell her mom.
Wendy: yes you can.
Tayler: no, I can't ruin our friendship.
Wendy: just think about telling her. You never know, she might feel the same way.
Tayler: I doubt it mom. I better get back up there.
Wendy: ok, love you.
Tayler: love you too.
Tayler comes back upstairs and sits on the bed next to you. You jump once again and he pulls you close to him.
Tayler: it's just me.
You: I love you.
Tayler: uh I love you too.
