Does everything really have to be so confusing all the time?

Um...I blame the wrackspurts? What's wrong, doll?

[hunting_realism]

Confused about what, Sally-Anne?

[sally_puff]

...Are you sure you want to know? I don't want to be a bother.

[hunting_realism]

Of course I want to know, you're never a bother.

[sally_puff]

*sighs, frustrated*

Everyone thinks that I'm no good for you because you don't look happy when you're around me, supposedly. And you're apparently no good for me because you have a reputation. What makes me angry is that everyone seems to think they have a say in this. It's not their relationship, it's ours. And I'm hopelessly crushing over my best friend.

[hunting_realism]

I am happy around you, you are good for me. Keep me grounded.

And I do have a reputation. Does it bother you?

HAHA! Me too!

[sally_puff]

...Are you sure?

No. It doesn't bother me in the slightest what happened before. Of all people, you should know that I shouldn't care about what happened before. What matters is now, not who you were.

Aren't we just a lovely couple, then? *sulky*

[hunting_realism]

Of course I'm sure.

*smiles a little, then shrugs* I'm not sure who I am now is even such a good thing.

At least we have a lot in common.

[sally_puff]

*pauses, unsure, and then scoots over to hug him*

I think who you are is wonderful.

I suppose that's a good quality in a relationship, isn't it?

[hunting_realism]

*hugs her back and smiles a little*

Yes, well, you really do deserve better.

Not sure that this is exactly what they mean.

[sally_puff]

*shakes her head into his chest*

No, I don't. Don't say that. If anything, it's the other way around.

Probably not. But you can't blame me for trying, can you?

[hunting_realism]

*puts his face in her hair*

How could you possibly mean that?

I appreciate the effort, really.

[sally_puff]

You're wonderful. And I'm unpopular, annoying, suggested to be insane as well as a bitch, and a sixth year. What could you possibly see in me?

You wouldn't believe how much I appreciate the effort you put in dating me, actually.

[hunting_realism]

You're smart and lovely and interesting and pretty.

I'm the school whore, apparently, remember? *grins faintly*

I really do like you, you know. Just. Marlene. It's different.

[sally_puff]

.....That has to be the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. *buries face in his chest*

Not at this second, though.

I understand. Eleanor.

[hunting_realism]

*bemused* Oh, that's not true. I can do much better.

Nope, not at this second.

Just one of those things, then, I guess. You never really think of it happening, until it happens.
