Etho's mask was only half on. His hair was a mess and his clothes were slightly torn. Joel had never wanted to kiss him more. He was running. "Joel- wait- Please!" "Etho...?" Joel couldn't tell if this was some sort of horrible joke. "What are you doing here...?" "I- I regret everything- I'm- I'm sorry- I wasn't thinking properly- I- I love you, Joel." "Y- You do?" "I love you so- so much." Pearl stood there awkwardly. This was cute and all but well... She was very much third wheeling. "I'm sorry for breaking up with you- I love you-" "I love you too." And then he kissed Etho. Yep... Awkward. "I object because I love him." Etho told the crowd. "I love JOEL!" Joel went slightly pink and looked at the ground but he was smiling. Etho squeezed his hand. "Joel is this true?" Zed looked at him with curiosity. Joel nodded. "I- It is... I love him, dad." "You could've told us!" "You never listen-" "That's not true-" "You never listen." "If we're talking about love." Lizzie stood up, standing next to Joel. "I'm in love with Cleo." "Is everyone just confessing their feelings...?" Pearl rolled her eyes. Everyone was so lovey-dovey- ewwww- "So you don't like me?" Gem grinned. Pearl bit her lip. Oh- There really was no way out of this. "Maybe-" "Maybe's good enough for me." Gem took her hand. "Is it enough for you, Pearl...?" "Yeah." She smiled. Maybe was enough for her...
