Marbles | night fifteen

All of your false accusations,
Turn into meaningless conversations,
About how our pointless conclusions,
Always end up being misread confusions.

Then there goes the dimensions,
Of going different directions,
And how your endless delusions,
Can end up being breaking decisions.


Tess: The usual?

Louis: (smiles at Tess) Yes, please.

Harry: Blueberry cheesecake? (raises brow)

Tess: Of course. (smiles at Harry)

Harry: Aren't you gonna ask if we want anything else? (rolls eyes)

Tess: (taken aback/glances at Louis)

Louis: (holds Harry's hand) Is there anything else you want, (looks up at Tess) love?

Harry: (blunt) A tuna sandwich.

Louis: (Furrows brows)

Tess: Alright, then. Anything else?

Harry: [silence]

Tess: I'll repeat your order if that's all; the usual and one tuna sandwich. Your order will be here in five to ten minutes. (slowly leaves)

Louis: (grabs Tess' arm to stop her) Thanks.

Harry: (kicks Louis' leg underneath the table)

Louis: (lets go of Tess' arm)

Harry: [silence]

Louis: (sighs) Are you sure you want tuna?

Harry: Why, would it exhaust Tess if I want that? (fakes a smile)

Louis: (bites lower lip) No, it's an odd choice for you and being the person you are.

Harry: Yeah. (nods)

Louis: (Looks back, making eye contact with Tess)

Harry: [silence] Just can't live without her, hmm?

Louis: [silence]

Harry: Lou, is there something wrong between us?

Louis: (nods) Yeah, of course. (not listening to Harry)

Harry: [silence]

Louis: (widening eyes at Tess) Excuse me, I-I need to go to the toilet.

Harry: Sure. (sighs)

[Five Minutes Later]

Louis: (sits back on seat)

Tess: (arriving with their orders)

Harry: What took you so long? (frowns at Louis, glares at Tess)

Louis: [silence]

Harry: Louis, what took you so long?

Tess: (places order down on table)

Harry: I'm done. (pushes order away)

Louis: Eat. (annoyed)

Tess: (leaves/pats Louis' shoulder)

Harry: [silence]

Louis: Eat.

Harry: [silence]

Louis: Tess, she's a friend.

Harry: [silence]

Louis: Hey.

Harry: (takes a bite on sandwich) This isn't tuna.

Louis: [silence]

Harry: (drops sandwich on plate) I'm not that hungry.

Louis: (takes a sip of tea) Your cheesecake.

Harry: You can have it.

Louis: You're impossible.

Harry: And sometimes I'm not that hungry. (slams hand on table)

Louis: You're full of rage, darling.

Harry: And I'm not always full of jealousy! (walks out)

Louis: Bloody hell!

Tess: (points at door) Go after him.

Louis: I hate drama (whispers)

Tess: But you love him. (continues to point at door)

Louis: It's all your fault. (points at Tess)

Tess: How come?

Louis: (slams cash on table) We shouldn't be keeping this from him.
