You were at your best friend Ellie's house, just enjoying each other's company on your phones. Ellie set her phone down next to her, turning to see you on her chair, while she was on her bed. She spoke, "So I have something to say, and I don't want you to react right away okay? Just- let it settle." You put your phone down and nod, giving her the okay to speak further. "So, I've had a big crush on you. For like- years. Lots of years." She says bluntly, speaking in a calm and unbothered tone. Like she had a lot of confidence to suddenly say that.
