The bar was never full, that's why it was so good. The peace you felt when walked in, as the jukebox was softly playing a melody and the lack of robots, is utterly stunning. That's why its your favourite place. The second defining factor of the bar was your good friend: The bartender, Jacob. He was a really nice guy who made great drinks. You were convinced that he put something in them but he didn't tell anyone, and thats what made them taste so good. As much as you tried to pry the answer out of him, he merely cleaned his glass, saying "you'd be surprised" or "trade secret", to which you'd be extremely frustrated to hear.

Today was just like any other day, you walking into the bar, him fixing you your favourite drink and him starting up conversation. Yet, today, the first 2 things happened, but the third didn't.

"Hey, Jake, you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm alright "

"C'mon I can tell somethings bugging you. What is it? I promise you can tell me."

"Alright, well, I think I know a certain someone who might be ready to know my secret to success."

"What?? Who!? If it's not me, I swear I will break the closest glass."

"It is you, don't worry. Please don't break any of my glasses."

"Ok, sorry. Well, what is it? What do you add?"

He placed his hand on yours and looked into your eyes, blush dusting his face.

"My love for you."

You were completely stunned. You knew that you liked him, but you didn't think he'd like you back.

"S-seriously?? I don't think that's a proper ingredient, Jake." As you said this, he frowned slightly. You realised that you'd said something wrong, so you tried to splutter some words to make up for it. "I- I mean, I, uhh.. I love you too but, like, ugh, you know what? I'm just gonna-" you pressed your lips against the mouth on the screen. This would probably mess up the screen, but you didn't care. You had to show him that you:
A) were sorry for hurting his feelings.
and
B) loved him the same way he loved you.

Once you'd finally finished, he looked at you, a deep blush turning his whole face red.

"Well, thanks for the secret, Jake. Have a nice shift."

"Uhh... N-not a problem. G-goodnight!"

You closed the door and squealed to yourself.

You had finally told him.
