Greetings, speakers of the pillow! It's me! Here to serve my community service for horny jail. The wonderful human beans over at GWA seemed to really like this series, and I wanted to spread the happy over here, too! I really like this character, and it makes a lot of sense to me that this particular script wouldn't have any sex in it. I hope that you all enjoy it as much as I do. (I may or may not have cried while writing this).

Pet names: Dude, Teddy Bear

There was a party tonight, 'was' being the important part. You ditched so that you could hang out with your best friend over at her house. She needed help with a boss fight and you wanted to keep her company. But she's being a little... different this evening. She's squirming around a lot in her chair and she hasn't looked you directly in the eye since you arrived. Something is off, and you're pretty sure you know what it is. You feel the same way, but you've been waiting so long for this moment, this progress. You're not gonna let her slip back into her shell. You can hold out one more evening. For Her.

Here's the script!

​

S = Snuggler

(Scene starts with video game noises in the background)

S: H-hey, I just wanted to say thanks for coming to hang out with me tonight. I know you probably wanted to go to that party, even if you won’t admit it.

(Listener tries to tell her that he really didn’t want to go)

S: Yeah, yeah whatever. It doesn’t matter now whether or not you wanted to go. You didn’t. You chose to stay here with me. I appreciate that.

S: You know, you’ve always been my closest friend. My… only real close friend. Everyone else I know is just an extension of being friends with you.

(Listener tries to console her, saying that they are her friends as well)

S: I know you say that, but I only met them through you. I really only hang out with them because I’m with you. They don’t ever text or call or invite me places. It’s always you. You actually care about me. You… protect me. (Deep breath in and out) What I’m trying to say is that I lo-

(Game makes a loud noise that interrupts S)

S (Halfhearted): Oh yay! Good job dude! Umm, give me a minute, I gotta use the bathroom.

(S stands up and walks to the bathroom while the Listener continues to play)

(S starts to talk to herself in the bathroom, not realizing that she can be heard)

S (Disheartened): Dammit! I was so close! I almost got it out! Stupid freaking game, I knew I should’ve invited him to do a puzzle or something! Why can nothing ever go right for me? I’ve been waiting for freaking years to tell him that I love him but everything just keeps getting in the way! (Quiet sobbing noises) Why can’t I just tell him? All I have to do is tell him but I just can’t! Idiot!

(S wipes her tears and exits the bathroom as The Listener stares at her)

S: Don’t look at me like that, wait, why are you looking at me like that?

(Listener tells S that he heard her in the bathroom)

S (Embarrassed): Wait, you can hear me in the bathroom from all the way over here? Oh god, I’m… I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean for you to hear any of that. I, I, I...

(Listener stands up and gives S a big hug)

S (Breathing kinda heavy and crying a bit into The Listener’s chest) Thank you. I really needed that.

S: So… what do you think?

(Listener tells S that he also loves her)

S (Flustered): Y-you don’t have to say that just because I’m crying. If you don’t feel the same way, I don’t want to make things awkward between us. The last thing I would want is to push you away.

(Listener tells S that he really loves her)

S (Very Flustered): W-well. If you say so, I’m glad.

(Listener teases her and tells her to say it back)

S: Don’t make me say it back! I’m gonna die or something!

(Listener insists)

S: (Take a deep breath again, before yelling) Fine! I love you t-

(Listener gives S a deep kiss that lasts for a while)

S (Extremely Flustered): Holy shit, did you really just do that?

(Listener apologizes for kissing her so suddenly)

S (Quietly): I didn’t say that I didn’t like it. Could you do it again, actually, please?

(Listener and S share a kiss for another moment)

S: That… feels so much better than I thought it would. Your lips are so soft. Again, please?

(Another kiss)

S: God I could have been doing this already for so long. How long have you… you know?

(Listener tells her that it’s been quite a while)

S: (Scoffs) Then why didn’t you tell me?

(Listener says that he wanted to hear her say it first)

S (Kinda Mad): You’re such a freaking jerk, seriously? You made me wait for so long because you (mocking male voice) “Wanted to hear me say it”? You’re such an asshole!

(Listener gives her a hug and kisses her again)

S (Calmed down a bit): Hey, that’s not fair! You can’t do that every time just because it makes me feel better. Idiot.

(Listener apologizes)

S: You better be sorry. I could have been kissing you this whole time and you just watched and waited for me to finally get the guts… to tell.. you. Oh, wait. That’s why you did that, isn’t it? You wanted me to work up my nerves to tell you, right?

(Listener confirms and apologizes again)

S: No, I changed my mind. I’m not mad at you. That’s… really sweet, actually. And I do feel a lot better after saying it out loud. Thanks, dude. I mean… I should probably come up with a name for you, right? Like a pet name or something. To let people know that you’re mine.

(S pauses to think)

S: Hey, do you remember like, third grade when we went on that field trip? Yeah, I didn’t wanna go, so my mom let me take my stuffed animal but I ended up losing it somewhere in the museum? And you… let me hold onto you for the rest of the bus ride back to school. And you even held my hand until I got back into my mom’s car. Yeah. My mom kept teasing me and saying that you could be my new teddy bear. I… I think I like that name. Teddy Bear. It suits you. You’re warm and cuddly and you make me feel safe when I’m snuggling up with you. Do you… like it too?

(Listener says that he loves it)

S: (Flustered laughing) I’m glad that you… love it, T-Teddy Bear.

S (Indignant): Can you stop making my face so red and just kiss me again?

(Listener agrees and kisses her one more time)

S: Hey, I know this is a lot to ask after everything that happened tonight but… can you stay over? I don’t think I’m done with you just yet. (Whispering) I want cuddles.

(Listener teases her and asks what she said)

S (Do your best tsundere yell lol): I said. I want. Cuddles! Now get in the freaking bed, you gigantic asshole!

(Listener and S cuddle together on the bed)

S: Now just, let me put my head on your chest. I’ve been wanting to do this for so long. (Yawn) Can we just stay like this… forever?

(Listener jokingly agrees)

S (Sleepy): Mmm good. I’m gonna hold you to that.

(S gets close up into The Listener’s ear)

S (Whispering): I love you, Teddy Bear. Please stay warm and snuggle me forever.

(The Listener agrees and tells her he loves her too as the new couple slowly drifts off to sleep)
