[And then messaged Lexa instead of going in person... Oh. No.
Max takes the tome and reads through it. His face stays utterly blank the whole time, while internally he is cringing hard. That... could have gone better. His heart really goes out to Lexa. After all the tragedy she went through, she's still willing to take a chance on love. Max thinks she has the right idea about this place. Max also thinks the woman has god-like patience.]
Okay... so, the good news is: she is still willing to give it a try with you if you are. But, here's the thing... you need to be sure the next time you talk to her that you're not going to back out again.
This is all or nothing, Ren. You need to be ready to acknowledge her to anyone that asks. You need to be proud to call her yours. And you really need to tell her you're sorry for treating her love like a dirty secret. I think that's where you hurt her most.
If she's really special to you, then act like it all the time, not just the times when it's convenient for you. Okay? Show her she's worth more to you than a reputation that isn't even necessary to keep here. That's what she's asking for.
