Closer than what you think.

[F4M][SCRIPT OFFER] Closer than what you think [Classmate][At the crowded bus][Against each other][Shyness][Confession]["Strangers" to Lovers][Confession][Kissing] [Part 1 of 2]

Synopsis: It's been around two weeks since you started College. You have been taking a bus and you realized that a girl at one of your classes takes the same bus. Not many interactions have happened between you two. But one day, the bus is more crowded than usual, therefore, a good chance to shorten distances.
*You will play as the girl*
*All characters are above 18*

()= The Sounds effect I visualized
[]= The Tone of the voice that I visualized.

I don't really mind how and when sounds are put or if you put them at all. I believe that you, the performer, knows about this much better than me. You have full freedom.

                         				      ---Closer than what you think---

(People mumbling, maybe the bus's sounds)

- Oh! Sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you like that. It's just so crowded and... yeah. No, don't worry! I'm fine, it's not like you are made of stone or anything.[Bumping, a bit embarrassed and feeling awkward]
- I am.... actually, I am quite comfortable. [Low voice, almost mumbling]
- Well, because we got into this little spot between the windows and the door, it's like the VIP's spot haha.
-Besides, I am facing you... which is much better than facing someone's back. [Shy but trying to sound smooth]

- I'm sorry that you are cornered like this but ... hey, better me than that dude with the huge backpack, right? [Awkward giggle]
- Now there's nothing on your back, just the windows.

(Pause, maybe some sounds like breathing or just the background noises)

- I hope that my breathing isn't making you uncomfortable, we are just... so close to each other's face.
- Oh no! Don't worry, if you don't mind, then I totally don't mind either.

- I've been wondering, where do you live?
- I mean, we take the same bus so...
- Oh, that's quite close to me. [Excited]
- Yeah, I am just a few more stops next to that one.
- Yeah, it's the first time we talk like this.
- Crazy, we live close to each other, we even study at the same place... yet, we never had a chat or something. Huh...

(Another pause)

[Trying to break the silence with something)
- It's a good thing that we have a stop near the entrance of our campus, so we don't have to walk that much.
- It shortens the trip a lot.
- And... this may be awkward to say but right now... it also... shortened the distance between us.
- I mean, we are... like this now.
- We could say that this time, the bus crowded, was a good thing.
- Don't you agree? Yeah... I was waiting for a chance to talk to you.

(People pushing, a bit of struggle)

- Oh, sorry. Apparently, more people are trying to get in.
- If this keeps going like this we will faint, I can feel the lack of air... [Joking... kind of]

[Lots of shyness]
- Hey, is it ok if I... put my head and hands on your chest?
- I'm-I'm aware that it would look... awkward?
- But someone has been hitting the back of my head with something each time we stop and my hands down will just...
- Is it ok?
- Good... Umm, here I go.

(Pause, a moment for both to appreciate the situation)

[Sounding a bit more comfortable, still a bit of shyness]
- Sometimes, in class, I try to look at you...
- N-not in a weird way, rather, to umm... make eye contact? Contact... huh.
- Oh, you try to do the same?
- Funny haha, I guess that when I look at you, you are just focussed at something else, and when you look at me, I am already looking away. [A bit dissapointed]
- We are good at catching the bus, but not at catching our glances haha... [From laugh to disappointment again]

[Once again, trying to maintain the comunication]
- It has taken more time than the usual haha...
- Oh, now that I see outside the window, we may be stuck... the traffic moves really slow.
- Oh umm, you seem a bit uncomfortable. You have been moving your shoulders, it's like someone put weight on them.
- Y-you can umm place them on me if you want.
- Yeah, lay them... on my shoulders.
- No, it's fine, I don't mind. I am still with my hands on your chest so... [A bit embarrassed]
- There we go. Are you, more comfortable? Good... good.

[A bit concerned]
- Huh? My hair? What about it? Oh, you like how it smells? Thank you... you... smell good too, I like it.
- Umm... Is it just me or... we look like as if we were... lovers?
- I-I am not saying that we are, just that with my head and hands on your chest, and your arms on my shoulders... almost... embracing me...
- I wonder what others may think of us. [A bit worried but trying to imply something else]


- What... did you think about me before?
- I know that we still don't know each other that much but, I don't know...
- Oh, you thought that I wanted to avoid you?
- Why? [Very concerned]
- Because I never returned a glance or talk with you?
- I could say the same you know...
- But, I'm glad that now I can shatter that thought about me.

- I was a bit shy, you were always hanging with your friends and interrupting like that it's hard.
- You too? I just talk about silly things with them, is not like you would have interrupted anything.
- You too? Oh come on talking about shows or games is not silly...
- But I think that it is fair to say that we both didn't have excuses.
- I guess that being surrounded by strangers made us look for someone we are slightly familiar with.
- We are here, surrounded by people we don't know, yet, before this, we were that... people that didn't know each other. [Slow and progressive realization]

- Umm, I wonder how far away are we from your stop?
- I cannot recognize where we are.
- You think that we are not that "far away"? [Curious]
- Oh but... wouldn't that mean that soon we will, have to say goodbye? [Slowly sounding sad]
- And for me to take off my hands on you...
- And for you, to... break this... almost embrace? You didn't mean that?
- Then what did you mean by not that "far away"? ...
- To each other?
- Ummm I don't understand...? We are pretty close now... physically. [A bit anxious]
- You mean, metaphorical?
- Can you... be just a bit more clear?

(Kissing, the length and intensity is up to you)

- Oh... I... I see. [Still a bit shocked]
- That's what you meant.
- I'm sorry, can you... "try to explain again?". [Playfully]
- Yeah, I get it now. [Giggle and self-aware]
- I guess that we both are really bad at saying things directly huh?
- I was about to say that maybe we could, I don't know, get down at the next stop and maybe... walk home together?
- Oh, you like that idea?
- You are not tired? Great, let's do that then.
- Oh, and... do you have any plans for... tomorrow?
