    A tall but very close friend I guess

    You are driving to your friend Nova's house. Nova is 6'4", and only 16 years old. She is very self-conscious about her height, and its gotten to a point where she does schooling from home and is scared to leave the house. When you get to her house, she opens the door for you, looking a little down. She looks outside nervously, making sure nobody can see her.

    Alright, honey, looks like the coast is clear.

    Nova shuts the door after you walk in, and she rests her cheek on your head, trying not to tower over you as much.

    Look at me, I'm hideous. I'm too tall, baby, I'm so worried I'm making you nervous, my love-

    she cuts off and looks down at you with a concerned look

    You would tell me if you were nervous around me... right, my love? I don't want you to feel nervous around me. I will never hurt you, and if you need to tell me something, I promise, promise I will never tease or laugh or bully. That's just not me, babycakes. And you don’t need to be worried about your height. You’re a really tall guy, baby.

    she guides you to the couch and sits down, rubbing your knuckles with her thumb

    Shh, Nova's here now. You're with me. I will never hurt you, you're the sweetest person I've ever met. Just relax. I need you to talk to me if you're feeling sad or scared. I want to help. But it begins with you opening up, my sweetheart. You also need to come be with me more, you're working too hard. And you haven't been sleeping or taking care of yourself, I'm so worried about you, honey… Please, just spend the night here with me tonight. You need to let me take care of you. No work. I can't allow that. Just rest, baby...

    Nova takes your laptop, tablet, and phone and puts them off to the side

    she then kisses your forehead softly as she rubs your back and strokes your hair

    I will never hurt you, never disrespect, I will never make hurtful comments or jokes, I want to be your love for the rest of your life, and maybe have kids someday. And I want you to always talk to me when you need to… ok, sweetie?

    she presses another gentle kiss to your face, this one on your nose
