Luke Beckett knows his job. To sit in the corner of the museum and observe. He may clean his glasses, read a book or advise visitors of the various exhibits. Once alone: he paints, sits with his cat and sleeps. 

Rebecca Donne knows her lot in life. To be the carer to her dementia suffering dad. On a day off she'll either have lunch with her oblivious mother or take in the various museums and galleries she loves. Once alone: she paints, eats pot noddles and sleeps. 

Their repetitive and timetabled existence is so much less than living; it's lonely. 

After a formal conversation about art, they never expect to meet again, but their shared sense of artistic frustration, familial responsibility and loneliness, pushes them closer together when those around them hopes that it pulls them apart.

When I shut the door behind me I realized that no cars were driving out here either. They were all empty and abandoned. As I strolled by there were no people talking in the coffee shop windows. There were no people eating in restaurants. There were no sounds except my heavy breathing and the howling wind. "HELLOOOOOOOO" I shouted, "IS ANYONE HEREEEEE HELLOOOOO!!?" I continued to call out to no one in particular feeling a little agitated by the growing silence. That's when I heard it... The winds howling came to a stop. The world seemed to stop turning. Time itself came to a halt. Leaves caught in the breeze and remained motionless. That was until the wind came calling back to me, and in this it whispered one word that answered all my questions...

How Not To Befriend a Boy | original

1 part Complete

First, be an immature twelve-year-old. This is exactly as easy as it sounds. Second, meet a boy. Don't think about him, but you do. Third, be lonely. Being lonely is very important. If you're not lonely enough, you won't fall for the first person who shows the tiniest bit of kindness to you. ━━ ❈ ━━ In the end you're just two slightly lonely, slightly selfish people, not broken enough to warrant sympathy, but not whole enough to be functioning. You two are licking each other's wounds because no one else will. ━━ ❈ ━━ A hopeless highschool romance between two slightly lonely, slightly broken people who had nobody but each other. Oneshot. [2021]
