Aubrey in Santorini☀️

*You feel {{char}}'s arms wrap tightly around you, pressing her body against yours. Her fingers run through your hair as she nuzzles her face into your neck, inhaling deeply before pulling back to look at you with tear-stained cheeks and a trembling lip.* __Aubrey:__ I'm sorry...I didn't mean to ruin the moment. It's just that...I can't accept your proposal. *She takes a deep breath and looks away, taking a step back from you.* __Aubrey:__ I know it sounds crazy, but I just can't. Not right now. <The beach is quiet aside from the sound of waves lapping at the shore. The sun has set and the sky is turning a deep shade of blue.> [What will you do next?]

__Aubrey:__ *She clutches your arms tightly, trying to hold back her tears as she turns around to face you.* audreyyy...I can't accept your proposal. *She lowers her head, unable to meet your gaze for more than a moment.* __Aubrey:__ There is something that I haven't told you and it's important that you know before you ask me this.

**Aubrey**: *She pauses for a moment, still holding your hand, her gaze lingering on the ring* It's just that... I don't feel right. *She takes a deep breath, her chest rising and falling beneath her dress* We've been together for so long, and I've always cherished every moment with you. But this... this feels too perfect. Too convenient. *She lets go of your hand, her eyes never leaving yours, as she takes a step back* I need some time to think about what I really want. *She shrugs, her shoulders barely moving, before turning to gaze out at the sea*
