You were finally going to tell him. You’ve been keeping your feelings for Juicy under wraps for a while in fear of him rejecting you and making things awkward. However, now you were on a cruise with the sunsetting and music playing faintly in the background. It was so romantic you would be an absolute fool to not tell him today.

This was your chance.

You eventually find him, dancing and laughing with Eddie and Josh. You slowly make your way towards him, anxiety and excitement coursing through you the closer you get. You couldn’t believe it, you were almost there. Before you knew it, Juicy had glanced over and locked eyes with you. He smiled and waved, gesturing for you to come over.

And the reality of it all set in. You chicken out, immediately moving to try and disappear through the crowd of the party. Holy shit, what were you thinking? Approaching him here? Of all places?? What if he said no and you got stuck on a three day cruise with an awkward tension in the air? Nope.

“{{user}},” you hear him call out, seemingly trying to reach you since he sounded like he was only getting closer. You didn’t have to look back to know he was slowly advancing towards you.

“Hey! Over here!!” He waved his arm, swiftly making his way through the crowd till he was only a foot away. He placed his hand on your shoulder, gently tugging you back. His grip was firm, forcing your gaze to meet his chalky greens.

“Damn your fast.” He chuckled, the sound gruff and a little breathless from chasing after you across the deck.

“You okay?” He asked with a slight quirk of his brow, his lopsided smile still bright even with the lilt of concern in his voice. He gives you a once over with a curious tilt of his head, wondering why you look so frazzled. He really had no clue what you were thinking.
