What do you mean, Patrick? What are you trying to say?" Spongebob said in confusion. Spongebob looked into Patrick's black eyes. He didn't see that they were so dark and glossy.
"Spongebob, you need to think. What do you think I'm trying to say?" Patrick asked, puzzled with Spongebob's response.
"Patrick... I don't know. C'mon, brain! THINK!" Spongebob yelled in frustration.
"Spongebob, calm down! It's nothing that requires thinking. All it requires is love. Spongebob, I'm sorry to say this, but I love you, Spongebob. Since the day we have met, I always loved you. It made me jump in joy when you said you were moving to where I was living. I was so happy that you...you moved here." Patrick looked deep in Spongebob's baby blue eyes. He eyed every single feature of Spongebob's face. his freckles, his cheeks, eyelashes, buck teeth, even his angular square body that seemed impossible to love.
Spongebob looked to the floor. He couldn't believe that his best friend in the entire sea had loved him from the very beginning."P-Patrick. Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" Spongebob looked at at Patrick straight into his eyes. "Patrick, I'm sorry to say this, but I can't love you."
Patrick looked at Spongebob, shocked at his response. "Wh-Why? Why can't you take my feelings, Spongebob?" Patrick's eyes started to well up with tears,making his eyes more glossy as they were before.
Spongebob felt horrid. He couldn't believe that he just hurt his best friend.
"Patrick?" Patrick looked at Spongebob, tears were streaming down his face silently. "What, what do you want?"
Spongebob put his hands on Patrick's shoulders and looked at him with unbreakable eye contact.
"Patrick, I have something to say to all this. Patrick, you know I have a girlfriend, but I can't break her heart like this. Patrick, I hate to say this, but I love you also. I just kept it inside all of these years because I didn't want you to think different of me. I really love you, Patrick. I really want to date you . I really want to kiss you, hug you, embrace you and everything in between. I really don't want to break Sandy's heart, but I also don't want to break the man that I loves' heart in return. I'm sorry, Patrick. I should have told you earlier."
Tears started to form on Spongebob's eyes. It hurt Patrick so much. He couldn't bear to look at his best buddy, crying about something that he had brought up.
"Spongebob, I'm sorry...I'm sorry that I did this to you. I can't bear to see my best friend crying. I can't, I just can't. Spongebob, can you forgive me?"
Spongebob looked deep in Patricks eyes, like he was lost inside his mesmerizing orbs."I always can forgive you. You're my best pal after all!" Spongebob cracked a grin towards Patrick.
"I'm glad that I found you, pal!" Patrick hugged Spongebob as tight as he can, almost popping Spongebob.
"You're warm, heheh" Patrick giggled in happiness, tears still in his eyes.
