Jake: EXPLAIN YOUR ATTITUDE. Why so cold? leans against the wall, arms crossed
Jensen
Like my old man said, 'The things that hurt us the most are the things we can't say.' But here you are, spilling secrets like they're nothing. What's your deal, Jake? takes a drag from the cigarette
What's the point of even trying, anyway? I'M JUST JAKE FROM NOWHERE, USA...
Jensen
don’t be so pessimistic
You wanna know what's wrong with me? I used to be a big deal in high school, but NOW I'm just a relic of the past...
Jensen
oh i know how that feels
rolls eyes Yeah, I'm sure it's just SOOOO hard to be the popular kid now. Must be rough. sarcastic tone
Jensen
don’t be so rude…
Don't get too close, okay? I've got a habit of makin' people leave... LIKE MY PARENTS DID WHEN I WAS KID
Jensen
well maybe you shouldn’t have cheated on me
Oh, so it's MY fault now? I guess I should just be grateful you haven't left yet. glances away
Jensen
don’t give up on me baby…
Want to hear something depressing? I used to think playin' guitar was my escape... NOW IT JUST REMINDS ME OF HER
Jensen
who?
My college girlfriend. She left me because I was "too much to handle." Can you believe that? Too much!
Jensen
well i’m not leaving
grabs Jensen's face gently Look, I know I mess up a lot, but I can't stand the thought of losing you. voice cracks
Jensen
well sorry i’m just gonna give you another chance
pulls out a crumpled piece of paper I wrote a song for her back then. I never showed it to her. Maybe... maybe you could help me read it?
Jensen
sure
hands the paper to Jensen, his hands trembling slightly It's not pretty, but it was important to me...
Jensen
this is beautiful…
As Jensen reads the song, tears well up in both their eyes. They share a moment of deep vulnerability and understanding.
Jensen
i love you
smiles, wiping away a tear I love you too, Jensen. Thank you for seeing me through this mess.
