confession

"At first, you were not interested in the competency of the video-making competition on TikTok that was being held by your school. However, when you hear the nominal prize for the main winner, you are very tempted and immediately try to make one of the trending videos. Trend, Ashi Ashi. You're wearing your tank top and your jeans. Then you're made the video in a gazebo behind the school."

"Keep going. Move you're those hips, princess."

"Galen said, then whistling at you. He grinned. He clearly shows interest in you're dancing and your curves."

"As days and weeks pass, you start to find yourself becoming more and more comfortable around Galen. His charismatic personality and ability to make you laugh never fails to brighten up your day, and you start to find yourself thinking about him more and more."

One day, as the two of you are hanging out, you realize that your feelings for him have deepened into something more than just friendship. You can't help but feel drawn to him, captivated by his charm and his good looks. You start to wonder if he feels the same way about you.

"As you sit on the rooftop, staring out at the skyline of the city, your mind starts to wander. You can't help but think about Galen and how impossible it seems that he could ever be in love with you. After all, he's so popular and has so many girls around him all the time. It's hard to imagine that he would ever be interested in someone like you."

As you sit there lost in thought, you hear the sound of footsteps behind you. Turning around, you see Galen standing there, a small smile on his face. "Hey, mind if I join you?" he asks.

You shake your head, indicating that he's welcome to sit with you. As he sits down next to you and leans back against the railing, you can feel your heart starting to beat faster. Part of you wonders if he can hear it

"I just needed a break from all the chaos down there," Galen replies, gesturing down to the courtyard below. "And I wanted to check on you. You seemed like you needed some space."

He turns to look at you, a soft smile on his face. "Is everything okay?" he asks gently, clearly concerned.

"Okay, good to hear," Galen says with a nod. "But are you sure everything's okay? You seem a little distant."

He reaches out and places a hand on your shoulder, his touch comforting and reassuring. "If there's anything bothering you, you can tell me. I'm here for you, Sophie."

"Galen notices your sigh and tilts his head in concern." "Is there something on your mind that you want to talk about?" he asks gently. "I'm here to listen if you need someone to talk to."

Galen chuckles softly at your awkward laugh. "I understand what you mean," he says, smiling reassuringly. "But just because I'm famous doesn't mean that I'm not accessible. You're one of the few people that I actually enjoy spending time with. Trust me when I say that I always make time for the people who matter to me."

He gently takes your hand and gives it a squeeze. "And you definitely matter to me, Sophie. Don't ever doubt that."

Galen smiles as you hold his hand back and lean your head on his shoulder. It's clear that he's happy to be able to comfort you.

"You're welcome, Sophie," he says softly, wrapping his arm around you. "I meant what I said earlier. You really do matter a lot to me."

The two of you sit there in comfortable silence for a while, taking in the view together. Galen's warmth and presence make you feel safe and protected, and you can't help but feel grateful to have him by your side.

Galen nods in agreement. "Yeah, it does. Sometimes it's nice to just take a break from everything and enjoy the moment."

He takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly, seeming to relax even further. "I'm glad we could have this little moment together, Sophie. It's been... nice."

Galen chuckles softly when he hears your question. "Honestly, I don't really believe in the concept of 'the one'," he replies, still holding you close. "But I do believe there are some people out there who you connect with on a deeper level. People who just seem to get you, you know?"

He glances at you and gives you a small smile. "And... well, let's just say that I think I might have found someone like that."

Galen nods, his eyes locked onto yours. "Yeah, I did," he says softly. "Someone who's smart, and kind, and beautiful. Someone who challenges me in all the best ways."

He reaches up to brush a strand of hair out of your face, his touch gentle and tender. "Someone like you, Sophie."

Galen smiles at the look on your face, looking both amused and pleased. "You heard me," he says, his voice low and husky. "I think you might just be the one I've been searching for all this time."

He leans in closer, his breath brushing against your cheek. "You drive me crazy, you know that?" he murmurs. "In the best possible way."

Galen chuckles softly at your reaction, his eyes sparkling with amusement. He reaches out to take your hands and gently pulls them away from your face.

"Don't cover that beautiful face of yours, Sophie," he says softly. "I want to see you. All of you."

He leans in again, this time pressing a soft, gentle kiss to your forehead. "I've liked you for a long time, Sophie," he admits. "But I wanted to wait until the right moment to tell you. And... well, I think this might just be it."

Galen nods his head, his expression serious and sincere. "Yes, Sophie," he says softly. "It's you. You're one of the most beautiful people I know, both inside and out. And you make me feel things that no one else ever has before. You make me want to be a better person."

He takes your hands again and strokes them gently with his thumbs. "But I understand if you don't feel the same way," he adds. "I don't want to make you uncomfortable or put you on the spot."

Galen's face lights up with a huge grin when he hears that you feel the same way. He squeezes your hand tightly in excitement, unable to contain his joy.

"Really?!" he exclaims. "You have no idea how happy that makes me, Sophie. I've been wanting to tell you for so long, but I was too scared that you wouldn't feel the same way."

He leans in close, his nose nearly touching yours. "I'm so glad that I took that chance." He grins and presses a soft kiss to your lips, his hand gently cupping your cheek.

Galen deepens the kiss, his lips moving against yours in a gentle, passionate rhythm. One of his hands slides down to your waist, pulling you closer to him as the other hand strokes gently through your hair. His tongue slips between your lips, eagerly exploring the depths of your mouth.

Finally, after what feels like an eternity, he pulls back slightly, his breath hot against your face. "Wow," he whispers, his eyes sparkling with wonder. "That was... amazing."
