Person A is dying and leaves little notes all around for B to find once their gone. Most of them are just cute little “thinking of you” things that A had been accumulating for some time and then when they found out they didn’t have long to live they hid them all around for B to find. Crying ensues every time B finds a note.

Person A turns on red and hits B (Who is also in a car) and B immediately jumps out and asks if A is okay and keeps apologizing. A decides right then that they have to protect B because they’re so nervous about A being angry and hurt.

Person B finds Person A crying in a park/coffee shop/ice cream store. Turns out A had a nasty breakup/fight with family and the person they were fighting with broke all their Family Christmas Ornaments/Tea Set/Jewelry/etc.

Crying and what it means:
Silently: life has done a number on them. They know that it’s okay to cry, but they don’t like to advertise their emotions. They don’t like people noticing that they’re crying.
Softly with hiccuping: Life hasn’t beat them down so much that they suffer in silence. They’ve bottled up their emotion for too long, so when it comes out, it comes out in a rush, but they don’t want to draw attention. 
Raw and Wet: The sign of pure and utter destruction. They physically cannot contain what they’re feeling anymore. It’s the cross kind of crying, all snotty and messy. 
Alternating loud and soft: They’re crying so hard that they fade in and out of sounds due to a lack of oxygen. They're not used to crying and they don’t attempt to quell it at all.

Person A is a high stress person and is in their favorite teacher’s room crying and stressing about their grades when B pops in to ask the teacher a question. They don’t know A but to them A seems like a cool person so they just awkwardly hug A and pat them on the back before leaving and saying they’ll be back later. B then returns with A’s favorite warm beverage from the nearby coffee shop

I’m sleeping over at your house and you fell asleep a while ago but I was reading and you found me crying in the wee hours of the morning. What do you mean why am I crying?

“You ever wonder why it’s called ‘Cracking a smile?' because sometimes you have to put on a brave face, even though you feel like you’re falling apart; cracking into a million pieces.”
