MERCUTIO: Do you like anyone?

I began to type a denial… but my thumbs stalled. They hovered above my screen for a few seconds, unable to move as I turned the question over in my mind. Finally, I settled for an answer as vague as what I hoped I wasn’t feeling.

MARINA: maybe. I think so. But I hope I’m wrong.

MERCUTIO: Why? Aren’t you the one who gave me the whole date someone because you like them rant a few minutes ago?

MARINA: no, i gave you the ‘dont date people for sex’ rant. And the last thing I need in my life rn is a schoolgirl crush

MERCUTIO: Bet you anything I’m sexier than they are😏😏😏

I nearly snorted out loud at the irony. But, unlike Juliet or my other friends, I didn't think that a stupid crush on a Montague was catastrophic. I'd wait it out. It would blow over. Giving attention to my crazy teenage hormones would only make things worse.

MARINA: u wish. and either way, idrc if people are sexy. sex is overrated.

MERCUTIO: You can say that again.

MARINA: wait, are you actually… agreeing w me? Or was that sarcasm

MERCUTIO: I blame it on exhaustion, but yes I am agreeing with you.

MARINA: … didn’t you say you’d date a girl just for sex, tho? 🤔

MERCUTIO: I said they date ME for sex. You could at least pretend to listen to what I say

MARINA: right. Either way, it’s vastly overrated.

MERCUTIO: Agreed, Pazza.

MARINA: im half tempted to call you Nasty Asshole at school tomorrow

MERCUTIO: I’m half tempted to reply by asking how you know it’s nasty.

MARINA: 🖕🏼 pervert

MERCUTIO: You set me up with that. It’s your fault.

MARINA: im going to throw up

MERCUTIO: Natural selection.

MARINA: ew

MERCUTIO: Its your turn to ask.

MARINA: truth or dare, pervert?

MERCUTIO: Love the new nickname. Truth.
