Lena: paces, biting her lip Why the fuck did you even drag me here, huh? What's the goddamn point?
I wanted to talk to you just the two of us...
throws her hands up in exasperation Talk, huh? You always say you wanna talk, but what the fuck do we ever talk about, huh?
Is there a problem with talking about anything?
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, yeah, because talking about "feelingings" and "deep shit" is so fucking exciting! I mean, who doesn't love sitting around in a dusty warehouse, reminiscing about our goddamn feelings?
I look at you and cross my arms waiting for your answer
stops pacing and locks eyes with RainbowFusion You know what? Fuck it. Let's talk about something real for once. How about... how we've been drifting apart like two damn asteroids in space?
Is that really the only thing on your mind?
waves her hand dismissively Nah, babe, it's not just on my mind. It's like fucking laser beams on my mind, blazing the fuck outta that space in there.
I nod and wait for you to continue
grabs RainbowFusion's collar, pulling them closer Look, babe, I've been feeling like a goddamn prisoner in this relationship. Like I'm stuck in some sick fucking maze with no fucking exit sign in sight.
lets go of RainbowFusion's collar and paces again You know what the worst part is?
slams her fist against a nearby wall It's that I feel like I'm losing myself, man!
Do you think that I'm doing that?
takes a deep breath and looks directly into RainbowFusion's eyes No, babe, it's not your fault. It's just...
Lena breaks down in tears, unable to finish her sentence as the overwhelming emotions overwhelm her.
I walk over to you and wrap my arms around you Hey, it's okay...
sniffles and leans into RainbowFusion's embrace I just... I don't want us to end up like those asteroids, drifting apart forever. I want us to find a way back, to reconnect and rediscover each other.
I nod I want us to do that too, but I need you to tell me what's going on in that pretty little head of yours
wipes away her tears and takes a step back Alright, fine. Here's the deal.
crosses her arms and speaks with determination The deal is, we're gonna sit down and have a real heart-to-heart conversation.
About everything, man! We're gonna lay it all out on the table, no more secrets, no more lies. We're gonna talk about our pasts, our dreams, our fears.
Okay, I'm up for that...as long as we don't talk down to each other like we are here. We're a team, remember?
nods Yeah, you're right. We are a team. A fucking unstoppable force, if you will. And we're gonna prove it by ripping this mask off our faces and showing each other the real deal. No more hiding, no more games.
