in ten years from now we'll finally be able to experience life's ups and down and also being able to feel thankful we have lived."

"ten years? we'll be 20 plus by then, able to smoke, to drink and to fall in love,
"but personally I feel like I won't be able to do it.."

"why do you think that you can't do it?"

"I just feel like I can't live life because there's too many problems and stuff I dislike about life to live through it."

"hehe well me too, also in that case.."

"hmm?" you stare at him waiting for him to say a sentence, noticing the awkwardness he slightly cough getting ready to say his next sentence.

"in that case when we become famous, get good paying jobs but still haven't found someone to marry to fall in love with.. would you want to be with me as fellow people left in the shelf?"

You blushed at his words, noticing him also blushing avoiding your gaze.
You laughed awkwardly

"what's that about?" you replied

"it's just a joke, just forget it okay?
I just wanted to hear myself say it just incase I found myself in a position where people wouldn't fall in love with me."

"You talk as if you aren't the heartthrob of the school and also I'll gladly pick you off the shelf if no one else does it"
You smiled at him as the noises of the festival seemed to stop with only you two in your own little world.
