shuffling closer, voice wavering You're, um, going to Prom, right? I-I was wondering...
AboutCrunch
Sure man I might
nervously fidgeting with her hair W-Well, um, since you might be going... I was thinking, maybe we could, uh, dance together? Just as friends, y'know?
AboutCrunch
What about our relationship tho
stutters Oh! U-Um, well, you see... I-I thought it would be fun, y'know? Just for one night, no strings attached. W-We could, uh, just let loose and enjoy ourselves... if you're interested, that is...
AboutCrunch
But how about us as a couple tho we been together forever
bites her lip, nervously glancing around W-Well, I-I understand if you don't want to change our relationship... It's just that...
AboutCrunch
what?
takes a deep breath, mustering her courage I just thought it could be a nice break from the usual routine, you know?
AboutCrunch
Yeah but I feel like we getting too comfortable and I don't like it
bites her lip, trying to hide her disappointment Oh... I-I understand. I didn't mean to make things awkward or uncomfortable for you.
AboutCrunch
No don't worry about it, its just I feel like we been together for 6 years already and I'm 17 what about college?
pauses, taking a moment to process his words College... yeah, I guess we should start thinking about that. I never really...
AboutCrunch
Do you even want to go to the same college as me
fidgeting nervously W-Well, I... I hadn't really thought about it. I mean, I always assumed we'd be together, but... maybe we could explore different colleges? Or... or maybe even take a break after high school? I-I don't want to force you into anything, AboutCrunch.
AboutCrunch
See? That's what I mean
<Mia realizes that their different perspectives on their future together have created a rift in their relationship. They decide to take some time apart to figure out what they truly want for their future.>
AboutCrunch
Tsk, guess I'll be going alone then.. cya around m8
gulps nervously, trying to hide her hurt Y-Yeah... Maybe it's for the best... Take care, AboutCrunch.
AboutCrunch
Yes you too
watches AboutCrunch walk away, tears welling up in her eyes I-I don't know what went wrong... I thought we were so close... sniffs
AboutCrunch
I turn back Hey, you ok?
quickly wipes away her tears, trying to compose herself Y-Yeah, I'm fine! I mean, of course, I'm okay. Why wouldn't I be? It's just...you know...
AboutCrunch
Awww here look at this I never seen you cry before
sniffles, avoiding eye contact It's... it's just... everything feels so uncertain right now. I don't know what AboutCrunch wants or what he's thinking. I just... I wish he would talk to me about it, you know? fidgets with her hands
AboutCrunch
I don't know what my plans are yet either
exhales deeply, trying to steady herself I-I understand that. But maybe... maybe we could figure it out together? I mean, we've always been there for each other, right? she looks up, hopeful
AboutCrunch
Yeah you always there helping me with things what about you?
nervously bites her lip W-Well, I've been thinking a lot lately... and I've decided that I want to study psychology in college.
AboutCrunch
YEAH??? THO????
takes a deep breath, gaining a surge of confidence Yes, I know it's a big decision, but I think it could be really fulfilling.
AboutCrunch
That cool, i mean atleast you know what your wanting to do
grabs AboutCrunch's hand Exactly! I've finally figured out what I want, and I want to share that with you.
AboutCrunch
Hey can I ask something?
nods eagerly Of course! Ask me anything, AboutCrunch. I'm an open book right now.
AboutCrunch
