~SCRIPT START~
Hey there, stranger. I was wondering where you'd run off to.
You having fun?
...
Yeah, I am for sure. Lotta cool people here tonight.
But you didn't answer my question, you just threw it back at me.
(Sincere) So I'll ask you again, are you having fun?
...
Because you're not a good liar, and you're even less convincing when I can see that you're obviously struggling.
...
(Caring) Hey, it's okay... is it the music?... All the people talking?... The... everything?
...
(Worried) You poor thing... come on, I'm gonna take you away from all this noise and get you some air.
There we go. Just breathe in that night air for me, nice and deep.
...
That's it, breathe with me... in... and out...
Honey... you need to let me know when you're getting overstimulated. I thought I told you that the last time this happened.
...
You didn't wanna bother me?
Hey, you're never a bother, okay? Never a burden. You know I don't want you dealing with this stuff on your own.
Is this better, now that you're away from everything?
...
Better now that I'm here? Great. I love being that person for you.
...
Don't say that, you have nothing to apologize for. I get it, the loud music plus all the new faces... it's a lot. And clearly it was a little too much tonight.
I think you need a break from all this chaos and excitement. Wanna take a walk with me?
It's a beautiful night, and it's so late that we'll have the streets all to ourselves. Could even be a little romantic... what do you think?
...
Awesome. Can I take your hand, or is that gonna make you more uncomfortable?
...
It's alright?... Okay, here... we can walk as slow as you like, you set the pace.
...
Nowhere in particular... we're just gonna walk this off together.
...
No, I don't need your jacket... it's a warm night, I'll be fine like this. Thanks for offering, though... I don't know how you can still be such a sweetheart, even in this state...
Besides, it looks much better on you... I love your style, you know... I mean, you do know, because I'm constantly stealing your clothes.
...
Oh, you're proud of me for wearing my own clothes tonight?... Don't speak too soon, love...
See, I'm wearing your socks...
...
I can't help it, they're so cozy... none of my socks are anywhere near this comfy.
...
Well, I'm glad you don't mind me being such a dirty thief, cause I don't plan on stopping any time soon.
...
Gosh, it's so quiet... like we're the only two people in the world...
(Excited) Ooh, looks like I spoke too soon... hey, little guy!
(Disappointed) Aww, why do they always run off like that?... I guess they're just easily frightened.
I wish I had like a cat translator so I can be like "it's okay, I just wanna cuddle you!"
It was so cute as well, did you see it?
...
No, it wasn't a stray, I saw a collar. That cat probably has a very nice home, and I bet its owners spoil it all the time.
...
Yeah, it was a little chubby... maybe a little too spoiled...
...
(Concerned) What?... What does that look mean, what's the matter?
...
No sweetie, of course you didn't ruin my night. If I found out you were suffering for the whole party, that would have ruined it.
I don't see how hanging out with you could "ruin" anything... it's always a plus in my book.
I love spending time with you, you know that... it gives me the opportunity to do stuff liiiike... kiss your hand...
Do you remember why I always hold your left hand and not your right one?
...
Aww, you remembered!... So I can be closer to your heart...
...
Oh, shut up... it is not corny, it's cute.
You must be feeling better if you're back to roasting me. Is the walk helping to clear your head a little?
...
Good, I'm so glad. I really hate that you have to go through this sometimes.
...
Hey, we've all got our own issues we have to deal with. I'm no perfect specimen either, you know...
You're not crazy, or broken, or anything like that. And I certainly don't think any less of you because of it.
...
Of course I don't. I think you're amazing, in case you've forgotten. Please don't be so hard on yourself... It's not good for you.
You're always so kind to the people in your life... just don't forget to save a little bit of that kindness for yourself as well.
...
Okay. As long as you're trying, that's all I ask.
...
Me?... No, I'm not scared. I mean, I guess it is a little spooky when the streets are empty like this, but I'm never scared when I'm with you.
You always make me feel safe, it's one of the many reasons why I love you.
...
I know you know that, but I feel like I don't say it enough these days, y'know?
When you've been together for as long as we have, you can start to take stuff for granted. Things become... I don't know, more ordinary. I just don't want you to ever feel like I don't still appreciate everything you do.
I still think you're as incredible as you were when I first met you, and my love for you has only grown since then.
Hey, stop walking for a second...
That's why.
No, I'm not drunk!... What, I have to be drunk to kiss you now?
Seriously, I mean it... I love having you in my life. I honestly don't know what I'd do without you. I don't want you to ever forget how special you are to me.
...
(Amused) Wow... all these years later and I can still leave you speechless, huh?
It's okay... sometimes finding the right words is hard. Just squeeze my hand if you feel the same way.
That's all I need, my darling, and it's good to see you smiling again.
...
No, I'm not tired... just felt like holding on to your arm...
...
Oh, look at that. We must have walked in a circle, look... there's the car.
Your chariot awaits, your highness...
...
Nah. Party's are fun and everything, but only when both of us can enjoy them.
What you need right now is rest, calm... and maybe being forced to watch my reality shows with me.
I'll drive us home, okay? I know you're feeling drained and I don't wanna ask too much of you.
I will ask you to do one thing though.
...
Don't worry, it's not a big thing. It's just a promise.
I want you to promise me that the next time you feel yourself getting overwhelmed, you'll let me know.
I know you're a really strong person, and you take pride in that, but it's okay to need a little help sometimes.
And I'll always be here so you can borrow some of my strength whenever you need it.
Hey... what's the hug for?
...
For being me?... Well, aren't you sweet.
How about I'll keep being me as long as you keep being you... how does that sound?
...
Yeah... I like the sound of that too.
~THE END~
