(Don’t) Be cool
It was always in my very nature to hold back: thought, opinion, but mostly feeling. When I first met people like you, I was excited, because you operated the same way. I felt that the few of us were the only ones who really understood things, our cynicism set us apart from the wide-eyed crowds. But now I’ve learned, we were always drawn to each other for the wrong reasons, because we had the same darkness and fears that we tried to cover with impenetrable facades. Friendships like ours only encouraged cynicisms to fester, holding us back from growing as people.
I’m glad to’ve met more people who’ve taught me that being open is okay simply by being open books themselves, putting themselves out there in vulnerable situations, giving constant care and concern to others without expecting much in return.

- romeo: hey i just met you.
- romeo: and this is crazy.
- romeo: but i saw you at your dad's party that i wasn't supposed to attend and i thought you were pretty cute so i followed you and we kissed but then your nanny called you away and i found out you were a capulet and got bummed so i sneaked into your back yard in the middle of the night and climbed your balcony uninvited to profess my undying love after an hour even though i wanted to bone rosaline like two scenes ago.
- romeo: so marry me maybe.
