So the conference wow there’s a lot here first off Janine trying to make Gregory feel better from the jump is adorable. It showcases how much she cares about him and wants him to get over this breakup.

I loved how they were able to let loose and get a little drunk. I love that she accepts that he’s a weirdo and she means that in a good way. They’re both weirdos and how she said that people should be be with people who like them as they are. My heart melted when she complimented him and he said “don’t sleep on Janine either” they’re two weirdos who don’t really fit in with other people sometimes but fit in with each other.

Honestly this whole episode just proves that they love each other exactly as they are goofy, corny weirdos who love to teach.

Now we get to the best part of the episode when they go to the flower classroom. It’s not just romantic because there’s flowers everywhere it’s romantic because it’s very Janine and it fits Gregory too. It’s part of what she loves about being a teacher the growth of watching her students (not to mention how her personal growth is blooming). Gregory gets it too he’s been falling back in love with gardening when he got to Abbott and he’s really grown into his own and not as much under his father’s control (but he has that growth to do too. These light confessions and heart eyes just showcase so much about them I love it!

A bit tipsy or not they were both deeply into each other at this point and the flowers, confession and everything just circulated. Gregory couldn’t take it anymore her general self entrapped him so he kissed her and she did not back away at all. I loved the silence as she just let him kiss her. The slow drop of the flower and her pulling his lanyard?! She wants all of him and she’s wanted it for a while. The kiss was so soft and passionate I loved it!!! It’s about time! I definitely believe that if they didn’t hear someone coming in they might have kept kissing and possibly confessed their feelings but I’m kinda glad they didn’t so they could keep the slow burn going. It’s still a slow burn even though they kissed because they’re not together. The inevitable happened and they said it was a nothing and due to the alcohol we all know better they both felt it and they will kiss again. When will they kiss again? I say they get together season 4 or 5 to let it stretch out despite how long it will be.

I think my fav thing about this kiss was the layers to it not just the flowers and the teaching but the fact that they knell down and they’re level for once was perfect! What’s next for them? In my opinion a whole lot of pining, personal growth, shared moments and shared looks. We’re in for a ride and I can’t wait I feel like I should say more but I can’t think of anything else so tell me what you think! We won you guys!

What just happened? Janine thought, her face buried into her pillow of the hotel room. She had just left the flower classroom with Gregory once they heard someone coming. Janine didn’t get much of a chance to explain herself before she ran off. She sat up on her bed and took a few deep breaths. She kissed Gregory she really did and she was still processing. He kissed you first though, she thought trying to rationalise it but the warm feeling in her chest took over the rational part. The feeling of his lips on hers? His lips were warm and soft she couldn’t not let him kiss her because she wanted it to. She wanted it so bad that she pulled him in. She didn’t want to overthink for once but as always she wanted to go after what she wanted and it was him.

Spending time with him at the conference really made her remember what type of guy he is, a fun, dorky weirdo. The type of dork who has been by her side since they met. Relationships were a complicated thing, a thing she was still trying to understand. Tariq was her first boyfriend for years but it took time to realise that he was not reliable in any way despite being a good guy. Mo on the other hand was also a good guy but she felt differently with him than with Gregory. Why is this so frustrating? She thought with a sigh as she rubbed her temples. It had come as a shock when she found out that Gregory liked her, it brought up more questions. Those questions though might have been scary because it dealt with dating but she didn’t hate the idea.

Dating Gregory, and being in a relationship was a fantasy. If she was being honest since Jacob told her she couldn’t get him off her mind. The idea of having a fun, funny, kind and resourceful man in her life was a refreshing feeling. He challenged her to view things differently than just her optimistic outlook. She was comfortable around him because she felt understood. It could be more though, but was that what she wanted? Janine squeezed her eyes hoping to forget but all she could think about was the kiss. The kiss and how she wanted to do it again, see him during the day and at night. To be dorks together at any event, share their deep thoughts and a life. The kiss sealed it, she wanted to be with Gregory it wasn’t a mistake.
