THE READER IS A FEMALE!
IMAGINE INTRODUCING YOUR BEST FRIEND ANNA TO ROMANTIC COMEDY FILMS AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FILM, YOU ACCIDENTALLY REVEAL YOU LOVE HER.
Romantic comedies. That genre of movies people hate or love. And you happened to love them - so when your crush Anna had settled down in Storybrooke, you just had to plop down on your sofa with her and present her with all your movies. She didn't even know what's a movie and fiddled with the disc so that you knew you'd have to clean it thoroughly because of all those fingerprints.
And that explaining. Why there were little people inside your TV and why would you stuff them there - you spent a good hour explaining that they weren't inside your TV and that their actors are nowhere near you at that moment and that it's kind of a remnant you could watch over and over again.
"Movies are like plays, but they don't know we're watching them. Or they do, but not at that moment - ah, what matters is that you'll love them! I know you'll do." you smiled at Anna and she cocked her head to the side, but she couldn't help but smile at your enthusiasm.
"Well, I do love to laugh and Elsa always says I'm a little bit hopeless romantic-"
You giggled. "A little bit?"
"Well..." she pinched her fingers together and said, "maybe a bit more."
—
As Anna's eyes were glued to the TV screen as the couple in that film finally kissed for the first time, you smiled at your crush gently, admiring how glad she looked, how her eyes sparkled as she got excited.
"I knew it! I knew it!" she exclaimed and jumped up and down excitedly as the couple confessed to each other that they've been in love for this whole time.
And maybe you were tired, or maybe it was just a thought that flew across your head - but you said something that you had planned for so long, but had also thought you'd say it in a more romantic occasion. "This is why I love you."
Anna didn't even register your words at first. Her eyes were still glued on your TV screen, but then she finally figured it out, as she slowly turned her gaze at you. "You... you do?"
You swallowed. You hadn't meant to tell it to her this way - but you just couldn't help yourself. It came out as a blurt - and now Anna was looking at you with wide eyes. You slowly felt your heart rate increase, as you swallowed again - no going back now.
"Yes."
For a moment there, you thought Anna would storm out from your home - to get spooked about that her best friend was in love with her. But just as you lowered your gaze from her face, she grabbed your face and smashed her lips on your own.
You didn't even know what she was doing at first - it came by surprise, like you even weren't sure if Anna was into girls. But there she was, kissing you as the movie rolled in the background. And when she pulled away, she had tears in her eyes but a big smile on her face, and your own smile slowly crept into your face as you fully realized what had just happened.
"I... I love you too."
