ALT (haven't spoken in over a week) Dialogue & Narration: "I jolted in my chair hearing a strong knock at my bedroom door. I threw my phone on the bed and paused my music as I went to open it. No surprise, just Penny again. “Pissy pants, you got company”, I furrowed my brow and pushed her aside before walking toward the door. And there she was. 𝘍𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺." Dirk, confused: "Daly.. What... What is this?" Dallas: "Stuff you lent me. I was around... figured I'd just drop it all off." Dirk: "You know you didn't need to do that. Please, can we ta—" Dallas, cuts off: "Clearly I picked a bad time." Dirk, frustrated: "What? Stop being like this." BG text: "you wasted no time."

ALT Dialogue & Narration: "She dropped the box inside the apartment and turned on her heels, I followed, letting the door shut behind me." Dirk, pleading: "Wait! Don't leave! Just give me one second? Dals?" "She kept walking towards her car faster than I could catch up. Finally I pulled ahead stopping her in her tracks." Dallas, looks away: "Get out of my way, Dirk." "Before I knew it, somehow this had turned left, arguing in the parking lot of my apartment complex. Neighbors witnessing from their balconies and cars. I looked around, becoming aware of my surroundings and pulled back." Dirk: "I don’t wanna’ fight with you Dallas. I'm serious. I was being stupid the other night." Dallas: "You blew me off like it was nothing. God, you make me feel like an idiot!" Dirk: "You're not an idiot, Dallas, believe me."

ALT Dialogue & Narration: Dirk, sincere: "I fucked up. I'm sorry I hurt you. I didn't mean it like that at all, Dals. I just needed a minute to think about what you were asking me..." Dallas, shaky: "You humiliated me." Dirk: "I realized that and I regret treating you that way. I hated not being able to just call you and bug you into hanging out with me, Daly. Don't give up on me yet, please? Let me actually make it up to you, Mm?" "I leaned in, slowly pressing my lips against hers. Honestly, it was rare for us to kiss, but not hearing from her, it made me miss her more than I expected myself to. It made me realize that maybe being so comfortable was more than just that."

ALT Dialogue & Narrration: Dirk: "You asked me to prove it, just give me another chance to." Dallas, soft: "I'm not... stopping you, b-but you can't just say this. You have to mean it. Dirk: "I do, I mean it. Come here. I know you probably don't trust me right now, but really, believe me when I say that I missed you and I want to make it up to you." "I didn’t understand what it was that kept me so guarded, but I had to try. I liked having her around, I liked doing stupid shit with her, I liked making her feel good. I just had to learn to like doing these things more consistently, rather than whenever it was convenient for me." Dallas: "I'm still mad a you." Dirk: "I expected that. But come on. That was pretty good, right?" Dallas: "No, but it's a start." BG text: "smooch, smooch"
