“Wait—don’t move an inch I’m coming up there to help you.” He said, his voice laced with concern, and his protective side coming through, as he climbed up your house, onto your roof. “Here take my hand,” he said extending a hand towards you.

As much As Richard seemed like your knight in shining armour boyfriend, getting ready to save the damsel in distress princess, he was barely even that. He was more of a friend, a situationship perhaps. He’d been wanting to talk about you two’s ‘relationship’ and the unspoken tension you two had.

So after a few weeks of barely talking, he decided to ask you to sneak out with him at midnight. And that you did, it was just that you’ve never snuck out your damn window before. It was odd, since Richard was that jock who always tried to be cool, not really the type to show he cares.

But he was serious about you, he knew that for sure. “You steady?” he asked, as you almost fell, and as if almost a reflex his hand going to your side to prevent you from falling off your roof. “Extra clumsy today, huh?” He said, playfully, before his face turned serious and his his hand slowly moving away to make sure you don’t fall.

“About that thing I wanted to talk about..” Thing was, he didn’t exactly tell you what he wanted to discuss, but he had to take ‘suck it up’, ‘be a man’ and just do it.
