Today was the day, Today was the day Neil was finally gonna confess to Eva. He kept thinking about the way he was gonna do it, would he just straight out tell her or do something else. He was currently in the bathroom practicing with himself in the mirror

"Ok Neil, You can do this. Hey Eva, we've known each other for like, well our whole lives. and I was wondering if you wanted to go on date with me"

"Too corny?" He said to himself but decided to go with It anyway since it was better than nothing as he walked out of the bathroom and walked to where Eva was

He kept walking and remembered the time in the terminal when Faye disguised as Eva and pretended to confess to Neil.

"Wonder what her reaction will be if Eva says yes."

He said remembering the first time they met. Well met as in actually talking with her instead of just looking at her awkwardly through Colin's memories

But he couldn't think about it anymore as he finally got to the room where Eva was as he opened the door

"What is up Eva?!"

He said sounding like how Eva saw him as, a village idiot but also a pretty cool guy.

And then he saw something very confusing and shocking

She was with Someone else. She looked at Neil silently and sighed

"Uh..Jacob, this is my work partner Neil Watts"

Jacob looked at Neil and went up to him and held out his hand

"Nice to meet you Mr Watts"

Neil stood there for a few seconds before shaking his hand and then pulling away after 1 second

"Um..you too, And may I ask. who are you?"

"Oh I'm Jacob. Taima's Nephew" he responded to the scientist

"I finally convinced Eva to go on a date with my nephew and they hit it off" Taima added

"Yep, he's a special person" Eva said looking at Jacob smiling and then at Neil with a straight face

"So why did you come here?" Eva asked him

"Well..um...I..I was..um..just coming to pull a prank on you!" He said.

Eva obviously knew he was lying about something but just decided to roll with it

"Why am I not surprised" Eva said rolling her eyes

"Does he always do this?" Jacob responded

"You'd be surprised" Eva responded

"Uh..listen, I'm gonna go " he said as he walked out the door.

"Oh ok, bye" Jacob waved

Eva, again. obviously knew something was bothering Neil but decided to talk to him tomorrow.

As soon as Neil got to his room he sat on his bed and held his hands in his head as he muttered "I'm an idiot" over and over again.

He felt like things couldn't get any worse but things did when his chronic pain was doing its thing

He sighed "really?! that is the absolute worst timing in the history of bad timing"

He got his painkillers out and quickly took them before sitting down

"..." he had no idea what to say..the love of his life. The one he fell in love with since school has found someone else...he knew he had to stop acting like this or Someone would try to get close, so he decided to go in his Terminal where he could be alone for a while

He sat on his chair, put on his helmet and in he went

The second he was in there. He just stood there. Not saying anything.

He honestly felt like crying now

Until...
