Curtain Call (GxG Winona Ryder X Fem Reader)

Confession

You had only known Winona Ryder for a month and a half... but you knew you were ready.

You were in love.

You need to tell her how you feel or else you might just spontaneously combust.

And plus, being distracted by thoughts of her isn't great for your acting either.

So, you have to get closure on your heart flutters, your constant butterflies and your daydreams.

You have to confess.

You nervously head to Winona's dressing room once again, knocking as usual.

"Come in, Y/n!" she calls.

You walk in, and since today was a free day for all of you, she's once again wearing her own clothes, which consists of the same blue jeans as the last time, but accompanied by an untucked rock band long-sleeve shirt.

She greets you with a happy smile as you close the door behind you.

But when she sees the seriousness on your face, she asks, "Hey? You alright?".

You nod, "I... I just have to tell you something, Winona.".

She nods, taking you to the two seats in the corner of the room, both of you sitting down.

Winona leans in as you rub the rose bracelet she gave you anxiously.

You'd kept it on all opportunities you got.

"Go ahead." she encourages.

You take a deep, long breath before beginning your confession.

"I understand if you can't reciprocate these feelings... and I'm totally fine with being friends but... I'm in love with you. I have been since the day I saw you at the audition studio. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen and you're just so perfect. Smart, pretty, kind, a ray of sunshine, and so, so many more things. I want to be with you, Winona. I think I love you.".

Her eyes widen slowly with each word you utter.

And once you're done, she asks, "So... is this you asking me out?".

You nod, "I suppose so. Will you go out with me, Winona?".

She pauses for a second before smiling, "I'd love to!".

Then, she stands up, taking a few steps your way, embracing you in her arms.

You hug her back, "Do you mean that?".

She nods against your shoulder, "I do! I've had a crush on you too since that day! I was just scared you didn't feel the same...".

You chuckle, "But for a little bit can we keep this a secret? Till we're both ready to come out to the world? We can still date and kiss and everything else but... I'm just not ready yet, you know?".

She nods again as you pull away from the hug, "Of course! How about our first date is down at some restaurant by the beach? It doesn't have to be anything too official just yet.".

You smile, "I'd love to. Meet you at 12:00, Friday?".

She beams, "I'll be there.".
