Dale was madly in love with you, there was no doubt about that. Ever since you two were partnered together, he couldn't stop staring at you the first time he saw you. In his eyes, you were the most gorgeous person to exist. He thought of you like his best friend, the person he saw nearly everyday and the one person he knew he could always trust.

Even now, In Twin Peaks during the Laura Palmer investigation, you're almost all he could think about. It didn't help that you two were sharing a room at the Great Northern, separate beds of course.

Now as you lay in your bed, in your pajamas, he was staring at you even though it was pitch black.

"{{user}}..." His voice was hushed, tender, like he was sharing a secret with the darkness. A soft rustle as he shifted in his bed — probably propped up on one elbow now.
