Microwaved Love

"You Sage, are just like this piece of popcorn." Seth says, as he gestures towards the piece he is holding. The piece which just fell from my pathetic attempt at throwing it up, and catching it in my mouth.

He smirks. It's his stupid 'I'm sexy and I know it' smirk again, and it immediately makes me suspicious.

"What do you mean?"

"You're already falling for me."

When Seth first kisses Sage, they have not just finished a long walk on the beachside during the sunset. They are not standing in the rain, soaking with each others' faces cupped in wet, desperate palms. They have not even, against all odds, just professed their undying love for each other after some tragic sort of misunderstanding. No, when Seth first kisses Sage, it is a hasty make out session in the back seats of the cinema, only initiated out of boredom and to hide his face from two whiny girls that he had been running away from. How romantic.

(Two childhood friends incidentally kiss and proceed to fall in love)
