(Had to throw in a little Frankenstein rant 🤪)
"Have you ever read Frankenstein?"
Pete asked with that adorable little smile
"I think so, why?"
"It's a great book, I hate what the movies did to it, turned it totally conformist,"
"How so" I said
I just want him to keep talking, I can tell he's happy, even if he doesn't show it much.
"Well, they're totally different, I mean first of all, Frankenstein isn't the monster, it's the doctor, the monster is just the monster, Mary Shelly wrote a book beyond its time, I mean the concept of insanity was barley introduced and she wrote about this that hadn't even been proven yet,
And in the graphic novel Frankenstein is hot and goth"
I couldn't help but smile
"Hm, I should really read it again"
"Obviously fangula,"
We kept on walking around till I spotted a bathing suit store
Pete pov
I can't believe he just listened to me talk about that, he seemed so interested, god these conformist feelings are just getting worse.
Mike spotted a bathing suit store
And, he grabbed my hand and started pulling me.
He grabbed my hand?!!
"Hey what the fuck!!"
Got my stomach feels like it getting stabbed and ripped open
"What?!"
I guess I scared him,
He dropped my hand quickly
I kinda wish he hadn't
Wait, why do I wish he hadn't!
Oh god
"Sorry, I just, I didn't mean to do that, I just got excited"
He said looking down
Oh god why does he look so sad, and why does he look so cute.
"It's, it's fine, I'm sorry I just wasn't expecting it."
"Oh, ok"
God why do I wanna hold his hand again
Without thinking I guess I grabbed his hand,
He looked at me super surprised, and then he kinda, smiled?
Oh why does he have to smile like that,
