Another Heart in Need of Rescue

I thought you didn’t like me. I just don’t understand why you would keep talking to someone you don’t like.

People do it all the time. 

Ugh. What do I have to do for you to leave me alone?

When you say that, I just want to pester you more. 

Look, I already apologized for all the times I made myself look like an ass. I’m sure there are  better things you can do  other than bother people. 

You're right, I could, but I've made my choice. 

Then why even talk to me if you don’t want to get to know me?

I like to bother you. 

You would know if you knew me, instead of just making assumptions.

I don't like gettin' to know people. I prefer my assumptions. 

Um… yeah. I have.

Well color me surprised. Princess likes comic books.

As much as I love Emma Stone as Gwen, I’d be really disappointed if they didn’t stick to the comics.

Right. Because you've read the comics. 

Amazing Spider-Man 2. Living up to it’s name. Honestly such a good movie. I really liked it. And Andrew Garfield is so cute. So that makes it even better.

I heard Gwen Stacy died. Way to keep true to the comics. 

I’m so… I didn’t m…. I should just go.

Yeah, you should. 

I’m going to take that as a yes. You don’t answer to anything apparently from what I’ve come to find out.

Do you usually joke about everything? Or am I getting special treatment?

I'm sure you can answer that for yourself, sweetheart. 

No. No I just… don’t know. I don’t know what’s the right thing to say. I’ve never met anyone who’s.. deaf. There. Happy? I said it. You’re deaf. 

Am I? How interestin'. 

I’m not giving you sympathy. I’m apologizing because I was rude to you and I lost my temper. I mean yeah I felt bad because I treated you differently after I found you were… well you know. But that’s not why I’m apologizing. Though I should probably apologize for that as well.

'Well you know'? Oh, so now it's like... a bad word? Go on, say it. Because there are lots of things that could go there instead. Like, handsome, charming, irresistible, for starters. What were you going to say? I'm what exactly, sweeheart? 

Oh it’s you. Yeah about that… I was in a rush and I’m really sorry. You were the only one around. 

Oh please, quit it. 

I got lost again. I really should try to find a map or something. It would definitely save me time and tardies. My professors are going to think that I’m not taking school seriously.

Or y'know, you could just bother another stranger while they're in the middle 'o somethin'. Just tap 'em on the shoulder this time, sweetheart. 

Yeah. Just forget I said anything.

Consider it forgotten. 

Wow. Using me for my fame. How rude. But honestly, I’d probably do the same thing so I can’t really blame you. Oh please you already admitted it. We’re friends. There’s no taking it back now. You’re stuck with me. I like the way you think. Everyone should just be naked all the time.

Friendships are just relationships where we take advantage of each other but we're totally cool with it. Sorry I'm not looking to be famous so you won't be able to use me the same. No, we're working towards bein' friends. I can take it back. I don't like bein' stuck with people. Not everone. Some people really, really shouldn't.
