here’s the thing: he cares quite little about his own studies at this point, he has already done most of this semester, and it’s only this semester he has to finish. all lucas has to do is ask and he will be there, he needs anything but the same old routine of the same people, over and over, of ade calling him and texting him and trying to get him to go somewhere beside his kitchen. he doesn’t really want to hang out with ade these days. and so an arm is around lucas’ shoulders, obviously, to move a bit closer to read the list on lucas’ phone, but more importantly, it’s to see lucas’ face better. ❝ okay, tu me montes ce film. ❞ he likes to hear lucas’ voice. and as long as lucas’ flatmates don’t interrupt them, he might be able to sit this close to lucas the whole night. he would like that. ❝ hmmm, titanique? oui. j’adore. ❞ he murmurs as lucas lists off movies. who doesn’t love titanic? and if they watch titanic, he’s scheming. no, that sounds bad. he just wants to be close to lucas. ❝ tu as ecrire les notes très détaillé ? ou, les notes occasionnel ? ❞ his fingers brush lightly over lucas’ shoulder where his hand rests, as he pretends to think about which movie he’d like to watch. (he’s already made up his mind, but lucas doesn’t know that.)
❝ mais, titanique, s’il vous plait? j’aime leo dicaprio. ❞ lucas, understand, please? i’m into leo dicaprio, like --- into leo dicaprio. like ━ into you. ❝ oui? titanique? très bon pour le film romantique, beaucoup de romance. ❞ he wants to write about how he feels right now, because he feels, and it’s a little overwhelming but it’s so nice because he thought he’d lost some of his feelings, that he’d gone numb and lost parts of himself permanently to the void inside his mind. he’s not sure every feeling inside his chest, inside his lungs, etching itself inside his veins, but he certainly likes it. but lucas asks him a heavy question, a question that actually shows how a person’s worldview is, and maybe, he thinks, and he’s going to get caught in his own mind if he keeps down this path, he thinks that a person’s answer to this sort of question reflects how much of the world they still see as good. how much of it has not been tainted by their own life experiences. unfortunately, eliott has had a bad year.
but, ❝ um, je pense ━ ❞ he tosses a few answers around in his head, and shifts a little, so his side rests against lucas’ arm a bit more, his fingers don’t stop tracing the same line on lucas’ shoulder. ❝ tu peux être créateur de ta vie. uhh, les filmes romantique ne sont pas realité mais, ils nous donnent le romance nous veulent. ou, ❞ he feels a bit -- out of sorts, a bit like he’s not making as much sense as he thought he was. ❝ ils ne sont pas realité mais ça va. le romance de les films romantique est ━ ❞ he’s rambling, and he knows that people hate it when he rambles, but he might be kind of staring at lucas now, and he’s not thinking about other people, just lucas. ❝ très vite, est malsain parfois. le romance en realité est plus lent, et c’est okay. un personne ne tombe pas amoureuse en un jour. ❞ maybe, you fall in love in a week. two weeks, maybe. who knows, there are many people who claim love at first sight, like in movies, is real.
