I was already missing before the night I left
Just me and my shadow and all of my regrets
Who am I? Who am I when I don't know myself?
Who am I? Who am I?
Invisible

"So tell me about yourself, Northsider." Sweet Pea asked as he stared at the black haired beauty in front of him. 

"There's nothing interisting about me," Bea said, resting her elbows on the table of Pop's diner. She was slightly anxious, looking around for any signs of her sister or her annoying friends. It's not like she's ashamed of being seen together with a Serpent but, she's afraid that she'll get caught sneaking out again. "Except for the fact that I am about to runaway from this awful town and away from my family." 

Sweet Pea laughed, This girl seems interesting for a Northsider. 

"Aren't you Betty's sister?" Pea asked. 

"Sadly. Although I wish I weren't." Bea chuckles, looking down. 

Pea's head tilted in confusion, "Tell me, princess. What do you like to do when no one is around. What things do you like the most. Tell me anything about you that only you would know." He smirks at the Northsider who was staring at him in awe. 

Smiling, she took a sip of her Strawberry milkshake and spoke, "I like to sleep." 

Sweet Pea laughed loudly, causing Pop to look at them with an amused expression. The Serpent was so amazed with Bea. He thought that she was some snobby Northsider who judges you quicker than you can say hi. He, obviously, thought wrong because the girl in front of him is actually a carefree girl with lots of secrets hidden inside, and he wants to know all of them one by one. 

Both of them were so lost in each others' prescence that they didn't see Pop eyeing both of them with a knowing look. He knew  the looks on their faces, and he was so familiar with it. It was the look of young love. He would bet his precious milkshakes that those two would end up together, and it seems like it won't be that long from now. The pair fits each other like a puzzle. 

"Young love, eh, Pops?" A voice startled Pops from his thoughts. Turning to look at the owner of the voice, he found Fred Andrews with a smile on his face, with his eyes locked on the pair. 

Pops laughs soflty, "The purest of them all," Shaking his head, he adjusted his apron and his cap. "The usual?" 

"Make it double, Pops, thanks." Fred said, shifting his attention.

"--and then I fell off the balcony with a loud thud. No one went outside to check on me though, because they were all busy." Bea laughed, but Sweet Pea was looking at her sadly. 

Bea noticed and sighed. She hated this- being pitied. "There's that look again." 

"What look?" 

"That look," Bea stated. "Look, I don't need your pity. I'm fine." 

Sweet Pea wanted to believe that but she was far from one. She needed to be saved from everyone here, even from him. But most of all, she needed to be saved from her inner demons. 

"I know you're not - you're far from one actually. But, I'm not gonna push you to tell me, I'll patiently wait for you to tell me. " Sweet Pea said in a hushed tone. "How about we ask each other questions?" 

Bea smiled greatfully before nodding, "Sure, Sweets." 

"Favorite bands?" Pea asked, chewing a gum. 

"My Chemical Romance, Green Day, 5 Seconds Of Summer,  Mayday Parade, The 1975 and the Artic Monkeys." Bea said, admiring how good Pea looks under the lights. "Oh and Twenty-One Pilots." 

"Isn't MCR dead?" Pea teased. 

"Shut up, Pea, or I'll ditch you." Bea snickered. 

"Oops." 

The two teenagers were having fun; conversing with one another. They forgot about how different they are, and the town's rivalry. All they know was that, they were with each other. No hate, nor criticism existing between them as time passes by. They were simply two teenagers with mutual understandings.
