As I stared back at Twilight as she pretended to cry, I felt a pain in my heart. I don’t know why though because I knew she was only pretending, but it hurt me to see her like this.
“You can come with me, Twilight,” I said, veering from the script.
“Um, what?” Twilight asked in confusion, breaking character.
“I said you can come with me, Twilight,” I reiterated. “You can come with me, and we can be together forever.”
“That’s…not the line, Jake,” Twilight informed me.
“I know it isn’t, Twilight,” I admitted, finding it harder to keep my composure. “But I don’t like seeing you so sad, even if it’s just acting. I want you to be happy, Twilight, and the thought of making you so upset hurts me.”
“J-Jake,” Twilight softly muttered.
“I love you, Twilight,” I confessed as a tear flowed down my cheek. “I love you more than anything in the world. And I want to be with you from now until the end of time.”
“Oh Jake,” Twilight tearfully said as she pulled me into a hug. “I love you too.”
I didn’t say anything as I returned Twilight’s hug, my tears now ones of joy. Twilight and I continued to hug for a few minutes before I decided to break it.
“Sorry I ruined our re-enactment,” I apologized to Twilight.
“You didn’t ruin it, Jake.” Twilight assured me as she wiped a tear away. “I think this was a much better ending than the one in the script.”
I just smiled at Twilight as I regained my composure.
“So what now?” I asked.
“How about we continue this in my room?” Twilight suggested.
“I’d like that,” I said as I picked Twilight up and started carrying her, much to her delight.
“I love you, Jake,” she whispered into my ear.
“I love you too, Twi,” I whispered back.
