A Conversation About Love

A/N: Written after a particularly difficult day. Really just me dickering about to get a handle on how posting works.

"Why do you think there are so many girl/girl relationships at my school?"

"Man, I don't know! Why are you even asking me somethin' like that?!"

"Dunno. Just wondering."

"Yeah? What, you thinkin' about becoming lesbo?"

"No. I like guys too much."

"So, what? Yer bi?"

"You're not listening."

"Alright, Boss. I was only jokin'."

pause

"Oi, what's got you on this weird relationship kick recently?"

"What do ya mean?"

"Seems you've been thinkin' about that romance shit a lot more then usual."

"Well, I think about it a lot to begin with."

"Yeah, well, you've been thinkin' about it even more and you've been real serious recently! What's up with that?"

"I dunno. I guess I'm changing again."

"What? Five time ain't enough for ya?"

"I'm only sixteen. I'm still trying to find myself."

"Yeah, I know, but it's pretty damn hard on the rest of us."

"I'm sorry."

"Don' be. Guess it comes with the whole figment gig."

pause

"I got to talk to him today."

"So THAT'S it!"

"Oh, bug off! I only have him in one class and who knows when I'll see him after this term!"

"Yeah, but he's got a girl! Ya little harlot."

"Oh, shut up."

pause

"So, who's yer next guy?"

"Huh?"

"Come on, Boss, admit it! Yer a die hard romantic, kid."

"You're impossible."

"Ya got another one then?"

"No."

"It's a fictional guy, again, ain't it?"

"Oh, shut up."

pause

"I hate love."

"Yeah, Boss, I know."
