Short filmTranscript
00:07During the months I had a crush on Lucas Reed, the football captain, I tried everything to
00:12lose weight. One day in volleyball class I almost passed out from hunger. Lucas grabbed my hand and
00:20dragged me straight to the cafeteria. Lucas looks angry but keeps his voice low. Can you stop
00:29starving yourself? If anyone makes another joke about your body, I'll shut them up. That
00:35was the day I thought Lucas might like me too, so I confessed. What? Lily Taylor, did you
00:43just say you like Lucas? His voice carried across the whole classroom. For one second,
00:48the room went south. Then everyone burst out laughing. Damn, Lucas really is something.
00:55Even the fatty has a crush on him. Lucas, is that why you keep rejecting girls? You were
01:00saving yourself for her? You serious? My face burned. I could not say another word. Then a loud crash
01:11cut from the room. Lucas stood up and kicked over his desk. I just want to know one thing. Lucas
01:17looked down at me. What made you think you could confess to me? Do you think my standards were that
01:21low? My whole body went stiff. The heat drained from my face. Don't you think you're kind of gross?
01:30I had been mocked for my body for years, but Lucas was the first boy who ever defended me. For
01:35a while,
01:35I thought my life could be different. But today, Lucas crushed that dream himself. I finally understood.
01:42Girls like me did not get exceptions. Before the next bell rang, Lucas rubbed his brow and left the
01:47classroom. He never came back that day. The next morning, one of his friends came over to move his
01:56desk. Lucas said he felt sick after yesterday. He's taken a few days off. He asked me to move
02:05his seat. Not because of you. Don't overthink it. I blinked hard. My eyes stung. I couldn't understand
02:12why being bigger than other girls made people hate me this much. I only ate half a bowl more than
02:19they
02:19did. Was that really so disgusting? Three days later, Lucas came back. He walked into the classroom with
02:24his arm around Bella Hart's waist. Bella was captain of the cheer squad. Every guy's green room. And I,
02:32a nobody, people only remembered when they needed a joke.
02:38Damn, Lucas. Finally got yourself a girlfriend? So is it real or just for show?
02:46What do you mean? Do I look like the kind of girl who lets random guys put their hands on
02:50my waist?
02:51Lucas did not deny it. People started cheering and teasing them. I lowered my head and looked at my
02:57workbook. At least no one cared about what happened that day anymore. No one had time to laugh at me.
03:03That was already good enough. After that, I buried myself in school work. On the next AP calculus
03:09test, I beat Ethan Miller, the top student, for the first time. The moment class ended, Ethan moved
03:16his desk beside mine. Miss Carter said I keep messing up the written explanations. She told me to learn
03:21from you. New seatmate. Help me out. It took me a few seconds to realize I had a seatmate again.
03:30I was a little happy. So, I quickly pulled out my notebook. Here. This is what I use.
03:37Good.
03:38When I looked up by accident, I met Lucas's eyes across the room. He had been watching us for a
03:44while. A second
03:45later, he looked away first. Then he gave a short, ridiculous smile. I did not know my confession had
03:51disgusted him that much. So much so that he could not even stand to see me doing okay.
03:56The next morning, Ethan brought me two sausage rolls. I had just taken them when Lucas walked
04:04over with a low laugh. For you. You like this type, right? Want me to bring you more tomorrow?
04:29Lucas's friends laughed with him. Once again, our corner of the classroom became the center
04:33of attention. Ethan cursed under his breath. Then he moved back to his old seat without another
04:38word. From beginning to end, neither of them looked at me. But every word was about me.
04:43My eyes fell on the pictures scattered across the desk. The sausage rolls in my hands went cold.
04:56What? Are you that desperate for attention? Every guy who sits beside you gets the full treatment?
05:09After that day, no one was sitting beside me. The girls did not talk to me much either.
05:14Everyone liked bright, easy girls. I was quiet, dull, and easy to leave in a corner. Even then,
05:21I never thought about dieting again. The only time I had tried to lose weight was because I liked
05:26Lucas more than food. Now, I did not like him anymore.
05:36That Friday, we had volleyball class. Halfway through class, it started boring. Everyone ran toward
05:42the gym entrance. They laughed and screamed while covering their heads. Before I even made it off
05:47the court, my kneecap slipped out of place. I felt hard. When the bone slid back, the pain hit its
05:54peak.
05:55I lay on the wet court, unable to sit up. Then a person stopped beside me. I grabbed one pant
06:01leg without
06:01thinking. I was soaked through. Lucas did not look at me. He walked past me. Rain kept running into my
06:21mouth, but my throat still felt dry. I could only try to push myself up. Near the gym entrance, I
06:27heard
06:28people talking. It took me almost 10 minutes to sit up. I still could not stand, so I sat quietly
06:43in
06:43the rain. I forced myself to think about what grandma might make for dinner. Otherwise, the pain in my knee
06:49and the eyes behind me would break me. In the end, I got up by myself. The voices at the
06:55gym entrance
06:56never stopped. I did not dare look back. I limped to the security office and called grandma. After
07:02grandma heard my kneecap had dislocated, she decided my weight was affecting my health. From that day on,
07:08she started controlling my diet. She said she had to help me lose weight.
07:14I stayed home for two days before going back to school. That morning, grandma only let me eat one
07:19whole wheat egg sandwich. I felt miserable. But soon, Ms. Carter walked into the classroom.
07:25Behind her stood a strange transfer student. The transfer student wears a mask and a baseball cap.
07:31Most of his face was hidden in shadow. Ms. Carter looked around the room. Her eyes finally stopped
07:36at me. Sebastian Cole, sit beside Lily. After that, she hurried back to the office. Sebastian sat in the
07:44empty spot beside me. Neither of us seemed interested in talking, but Blake could never keep his voice down.
07:51Lucas, look. This guy is weird. His whole face is covered. His whole face is covered. Bella sat beside
07:59Lucas and joined in. If he looked good, why would he hide his face? Blake clicked his tongue.
08:06Ghost boy and fat girl. New couple alert? Lucas did not react. He only spun his pen lazily and said
08:13nothing. For almost a month, Sebastian and I barely spoke. I did not want to talk. I was afraid the
08:19same
08:19thing that happened with Ethan would happen again. Then one afternoon after class, I noticed Sebastian
08:25lying across his desk. Sebastian presses one hand hard against his stomach. Do you have a stomach ache?
08:33Yeah. I'll take you to the nurse's office. Luckily, he did not pull away when I touched him.
08:39He was almost six feet two. Most of his weight leaned against me. Good thing I was sturdy. Otherwise,
08:45I would not have been able to hold him up. The nurse gave him medicine. Then she asked me to
08:50get him
08:50some water. I nodded quickly. I ran to buy it, then hurried back. By then, Sebastian was the only one
08:56left in the nurse's office. He leaned back in the chair. You dislike me that much and still helped me?
09:02I don't dislike you. That's pretty kind of you, Lily. I thought you hated me, so I didn't talk to
09:10you.
09:11Why would I hate you? Sebastian's eyes are clean, dark, and calm. Because I'm fat. I suddenly felt he
09:19was probably not disfigured at all. After that day, Sebastian and I slowly got closer. But he was
09:25still strange. He never took off his mask or baseball cap. He barely talked to anyone else.
09:31But he always walked laps with me after school. My weight changed, too. Without noticing it,
09:36I had slimmed down a lot. Grandma was pleased. She said I look healthy now. I never expected Lucas
09:42to be the first person at school to notice. That afternoon, I sat on the lawn, finishing the low-fat
09:47turkey bowl Grandma had packed for me, when Lucas suddenly grabbed my wrist.
09:51You're dieting again? It's none of your business. Lucas pulled me toward the cafeteria. You get dizzy
09:57when you starve yourself. Did you forget? Planning to pass out again? And you've trained Koss
10:03isandably? If you don't let go, I'll bite you! Lucas laughed out of anger. You really don't know
10:10who is good to you? I took one step back and looked at him calmly. Drop the act. After that,
10:18I turned and
10:18walked back to the classroom. Sebastian was lying across his desk alone. I hurried over.
10:24Is your stomach hurting again? Yeah. He looked at me and lowered his eyes.
10:29I wanted to buy medicine, but I forgot where the nurse's office was.
10:37I saw you downstairs just now, but you were talking to some guy, so I didn't want to interrupt.
10:45Lily, it hurts. I'll go buy it for you right now. Wait here. Sebastian pressed one hand
10:51to his stomach and forced himself to stand. I'll go with you. That way I can remember
10:56the route. I held his arm and helped him toward the nurse's office. When we went downstairs,
11:00we ran into Lucas. Sebastian suddenly lost his balance and fell against me.
11:08I hurt too much to walk. Let me rest for a second, okay? I could not refuse. Lucas's
11:17eyes turned cold at once. He had just taken one step toward us when Blake and Bella caught
11:23up from behind. Whoa! Fatty and Ghost Boy? What are you two doing? What did you call her?
11:36Fatty. Am I wrong? If she's not fat, then am I?
11:45Yes. You're not fat. You're just a twig. Before Blake could swing, I grabbed Sebastian and ran.
11:56Only when we reached the nurse's office did I let out a breath.
12:01Thank you, Sebastian. But next time, just ignore him. He won a taekwondo tournament before.
12:08If you mess with him, you'll only get beaten up. A trace of mockery flashes through Sebastian's eyes.
12:14But he was bullying you.
12:18Lily, I can't let anyone bully you.
12:24The next day, Blake came to school with bruises all over his face. Blake's eye is swollen and his lip
12:31is split.
12:33If I find out who did it,
12:36if I find out who did it, I'll kill him.
12:38Forget your face for a second.
12:41Listen to this.
12:41I walked past the office earlier. The principal was talking about some billionaire's son in senior
12:47geared. He just transferred back from overseas. Tringlers, who do you think it is?
12:53I looked up. I met Sebastian's clean, calm eyes. He pointed at a problem on his worksheet.
13:00Lily, can you explain this one to me?
13:03By late spring, graduation was only a month away. For the graduation showcase,
13:09Bella was in charge of costume sizes. She stood at the front of the classroom with a clipboard and
13:14asked everyone,
13:16Lily, should I put you down for XXL or XXXL?
13:22I looked up for my corrections. For some reason, I felt embarrassed saying it.
13:29I wear a small.
13:32The classroom went quiet.
13:38Everyone turned to look at me. Their shock told me no one had really noticed the change
13:42except Sebastian and Lucas. After months of eating healthy and walking laps, I had lost a lot of weight.
13:50Holy shit. Is that Lily?
13:53I told you. Her face was always pretty. Just had to lose the weight.
13:56Ethan, who had not spoken to me in a long time, looked stunned too.
14:00That look made me even more uncomfortable. Not at my face.
14:06Isn't the lead singer spot still open? Maybe Lily should do it this year.
14:09Bella had always been the default lead for school performances.
14:16Lily's not as tall as me.
14:18I'm not sure she can pull off the dress.
14:20She's prettier than you.
14:22We can buy a different dress.
14:26What the hell is that supposed to mean?
14:28You're defending Fat Girl now?
14:31She lost some weight and suddenly you like her?
14:36Why not?
14:38Besides, she might not even look at me now.
14:41Something in that sentence must have hit Lucas.
14:48The whole room went silent.
14:53Sorry.
14:57My hand slipped.
14:58The interruption killed Ethan's mood to keep talking.
15:01When Lucas bent down to pick up the glass, a shard cut into his palm.
15:05He acted like he did not feel it.
15:07His eyes landed on the box of bandages on my desk.
15:11Can I borrow one?
15:13It won't stop bleeding.
15:15Wow.
15:16You really know how to put on a show.
15:18I did not know why he had to come to me for this.
15:21No.
15:28I get it.
15:30In the end, I became the lead singer for the graduation showcase.
15:34After that day, I experienced a lot of firsts.
15:37The first time someone called me pretty on the school subreddit.
15:40The first time a boy asked me out.
15:42The first time, so many people were nice to me for no reason.
15:47Boys from other classes even came to our room between periods.
15:51Lily, I accidentally got an extra coffee.
15:54You want it?
15:55I refused out of habit.
15:57But Sebastian stopped the boy before he could leave.
16:06Lily, I think my blood sugar is low.
16:09I want the coffee.
16:11But I forgot my wallet.
16:13His calm voice did not sound convincing at all.
16:16It's okay.
16:18I have cash.
16:27Can I buy it?
16:28My friend wants it.
16:33Being around Sebastian was easy.
16:35Even when more people started showing interest in me, I still only stayed close to him.
16:39Because of that, rumors about us slowly spread through the school.
16:42Did you hear?
16:43Lily Taylor, the new pretty girl from senior class, has weird taste.
16:47She likes Ghost Boy.
16:49I saw his face once.
16:50He's disfigured.
16:52It's disgusting.
16:53Yen, I heard his face is covered in burn scars.
16:56Sebastian had never taken off his mask or cap in front of anyone.
17:00Even at lunch, he always ate alone.
17:02If not for me, he would not have been dragged into these rumors.
17:05So, I started keeping my distance.
17:08Sebastian noticed.
17:09One morning before class...
17:11Lily, you can move your desk away.
17:14I froze and turned to him.
17:16What?
17:17I'm used to being alone.
17:19You don't have to get tied to someone with a bad reputation.
17:22They all say someone ugly and disgusting like me doesn't deserve to be close to you.
17:27So, maybe you should sit somewhere else...
17:28Who said that?
17:31Who?
17:32It doesn't matter.
17:34Who?
17:35There's a few of them.
17:36There's Miles, there's Todd, there's...
17:38I remembered them.
17:39They were all boys who asked me to come out.
17:42Before, Sebastian had spoken up for me whenever people called me fat.
17:46If you keep spreading rumors, I will report you for harassment.
17:51When Sebastian found out, I guessed he was crying because he was touched.
17:55No one will say bad things about you anymore.
17:58Don't be scared.
18:00His shoulders shook even harder.
18:02I made a reasonable conclusion.
18:03Sebastian was deeply moved.
18:05Nothing bad happened again before graduation.
18:07The only thing people gossiped about was Lucas and Bella breaking up.
18:14Don't take it too hard, man.
18:16There'll be someone better.
18:17Lucas walked past me without slowing down.
18:19Why would I be upset?
18:21I never liked her anyway.
18:23Sebastian glanced ahead.
18:24Lily, sounds like there's a dog barking somewhere.
18:27By the time finals ended, I already knew I had done better than usual.
18:31The day after results came out, Miss Carter asked Rachel to organize one last senior dinner.
18:36When I arrived, I saw Lucas outside the restaurant.
18:39I looked away as if I had not seen him.
18:41I tried to walk around him.
18:42Lucas grabbed my wrist.
18:43He pulled me back until my back hit his chest.
18:46Are you insane?
18:48No matter how I beg now, you won't give me another chance, right?
18:51I don't know what you're talking about.
18:53Don't lie.
18:55You know exactly what I mean.
18:58You know I said I never liked Bella because I wanted you to hear it.
19:01Yes, I know.
19:03I also know you liked me a long time ago.
19:05I've realized how I wouldn't have been stupid enough confessed to you.
19:08I've realized how I wouldn't have been stupid enough confessed to you.
19:11The first time I tried to lose weight, I hid it from everyone.
19:15I wanted to lose weight as fast as possible.
19:17I wanted to wear the dress I had loved for months.
19:20Then I wanted to confess to Lucas.
19:22I ate almost nothing.
19:24I walked home every day instead of taking the bus.
19:27But Lucas noticed my pale face.
19:29He also noticed my hand pressed against my stomach.
19:32He had been about to leave for basketball with Blake and the others.
19:35Then he stopped and frowned.
19:37Period cramps?
19:38I shook my head.
19:39I'm fine.
19:41Lucas did not believe me.
19:42He kept insisting on taking me to the hospital.
19:44I had no choice but to tell him I had been dieting.
19:47His frown deepened.
19:48He used the clinic as an excuse and signed us both out of school.
19:51Why care that much about what people think?
19:53Even starving yourself is fine?
19:56Yeah.
19:57But after a long silence, he still gave in.
19:59Can you stop starving yourself?
20:02If anyone makes another joke about your body, I'll shut them up.
20:05Is that enough?
20:07Don't you think I'm fat?
20:09Like this, I'm kind of ugly, right?
20:11Lucas stopped walking.
20:13I looked.
20:14You're cute.
20:15Everywhere.
20:16That was the moment my crush on him grew out of control.
20:19I squeezed his hand back.
20:20For the first time, I tried to climb out of my own insecurity.
20:24Then, in the next second, he pushed me right back in.
20:26For a long time after that, I could not get up again.
20:29Lucas' lashes trembled.
20:30Yeah.
20:31His grip on my wrists loosened.
20:35I liked you a long time ago.
20:38But being with you meant everyone would stare, joke, and laugh behind my back.
20:42So you don't get to ask me for another chance now.
20:44His confession came too late.
20:45I turned and walked away.
20:47I heard his voice behind me.
20:49It was low.
20:49But I liked you more than any of them ever did.
20:52I did not stop.
20:54I took a breath.
20:55Then I pushed open the restaurant door.
20:57Inside, most of our class was already there.
21:00Sebastian had not arrived yet.
21:03Lily, you did well.
21:05Come sit.
21:06Bella's face darkened the moment I walked in.
21:08Miss Carter, don't let Lily's grades fool you.
21:11What are you talking about?
21:13Come on, Lily.
21:14We've already graduated.
21:16It doesn't matter now.
21:17She was secretly dating someone before finals.
21:22Who?
21:23Who is Lily's boyfriend?
21:25Sebastian Cole.
21:28I mean, Lily acts like such a good girl.
21:32Who knew she had a thing for the weirdest guy in school?
21:36He never takes off that mask.
21:40Maybe there is something ugly hiding underneath.
21:44But Lily, you don't have to deny him just because your boyfriend is ugly.
21:49When he gets here, why don't you ask him to take off that mask?
21:54Let everyone see those burn scars.
21:57Compared to her rumor about me dating Sebastian, I hated her insulting more.
22:02Bella, have you ever seen scars on Sebastian's face?
22:06No, but then you made it up?
22:09Everyone says it.
22:13Everyone also says you only made cheercaftain because your mom paid off the coach.
22:18So according to you, that must be true too, right?
22:21Who the hell said that?
22:23Bella looked around the room.
22:25The restaurant got noisy.
22:26Another group of students crowded around Miss Carter.
22:29Miss Carter, I heard the principal say some billionaire's son was in our class.
22:33Who is it?
22:34Is he hot?
22:36He has to be hot, right?
22:37He's rich.
22:39Miss Carter was pulled in two directions.
22:40The room grew louder and louder.
22:43Then the door opened again.
22:45Everything went quiet.
22:46Everyone looked toward the entrance.
22:48A tall man stood there.
22:50Sebastian stands at the entrance without his mask or baseball cap.
22:53For a second, the whole room forgot how to breathe.
22:56His features were sharp and clean.
22:58The man was almost too good looking to be real.
23:01The girl closest to the door blushed first.
23:04Um, are you looking for someone?
23:06Miss Carter finally let out a breath.
23:08Then she smiled.
23:10You don't recognize him?
23:12The person you were all talking about is standing right in front of you.
23:17Sebastian Cole?
23:18The billionaire's son?
23:20What the hell?
23:21So this gorgeous guy is Sebastian?
23:23The same Sebastian who transferred back from overseas?
23:25And apparently, Lily's boyfriend.
23:28Sebastian looked a little unfamiliar without the mask.
23:33Fine.
23:35I accept.
23:37Accept what?
23:38The restaurant exploded.
23:42No way.
23:43That's Ghost Boy?
23:44I knew his eyes were too pretty for him to be ugly.
23:47I thought that mask was hiding scars.
23:49Are we sure he's not some actor?
23:52The dinner ended in scattered gasps and whispers.
23:55On the way home, Sebastian answered every question I had.
23:59The bruises on his face had not healed yet.
24:01As for why he still took finals after being accepted early, Sebastian looked at me calmly.
24:07To go to the same university as you, girlfriend.
24:10You misunderstood.
24:12Bella was just-
24:13This is my first relationship.
24:15My parents were always working.
24:16I grew up with nannies.
24:18Once, they both missed my birthday.
24:19So I ran away from home.
24:21I thought someone would notice.
24:22No one did.
24:24After that, I got used to it.
24:25So even rich families could be this cruel.
24:29Sebastian noticed my eyes turning red.
24:31Don't feel bad for me.
24:34This is the first time someone chose me and didn't give me up.
24:39That's enough.
24:40Sebastian pulled me into his arms.
24:42Don't cry, Lily.
24:44The tears hung in my eyes.
24:46By the way, what were you saying I misunderstood?
24:50Nothing.
24:52Boyfriend.
24:53He needed love too much.
24:55He never pushed too far.
24:57Good night, girlfriend.
24:59The most he did was kiss my forehead when he walked me home.
25:02By the end of summer, I had fully accepted that Sebastian Cole was my boyfriend.
25:07Other than being clingy, he had almost no flaws.
25:10On the first day of college, reality hit me fast.
25:13Hello, everyone.
25:14I am Lily Taylor.
25:16Out of my three roommates, two ignored me when I said hello.
25:19The last one was Bella Hart.
25:21What a coincidence.
25:24Most students from our high school had stayed in state for college.
25:28But some coincidences were still annoying.
25:31Like that evening when Sebastian and I were eating dinner.
25:34Lucas was in his major.
25:40I felt depressed for a few seconds.
25:42Then I remembered Lucas was good at fighting.
25:45I quickly warned Sebastian.
25:47Don't get into it with Lucas when you're alone.
25:50You can't beat him.
25:51If he gives you trouble, call campus security.
25:55Sebastian was picking the carrots out of my food.
25:58How do you know I can't beat him?
26:00This concerned his personal safety.
26:02Don't act tough.
26:03He's really good at fighting.
26:04I've watched Lucas play several games.
26:06He rarely loses.
26:08Maybe I sounded too serious.
26:11After a long pause, he pushed the food he had picked clean back to me.
26:15Then he nodded.
26:17Got it.
26:18I'm useless.
26:19I won't mess with him.
26:20I forgot Sebastian was sensitive.
26:22For the rest of dinner, he barely spoke.
26:24He still quietly peeled shrimp for me.
26:26I bit my fork and looked at him carefully.
26:29The guilt got worse.
26:31After dinner, I changed my clothes, and then we went for a walk.
26:36From the track to the quiet path by the campus lake,
26:39I apologized to Sebastian the whole way.
26:42After a long time, he finally softened a little.
26:45Sebastian pulled me into his arms.
26:53Lily, comfort me.
26:55I am comforting you.
26:57Not enough.
26:59Kiss me, please.
27:01His voice was so close that I shivered.
27:03My breath hitched.
27:04Where?
27:07Here.
27:08I stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
27:10Sebastian held the back of my head.
27:14Leave a mark.
27:15Let everyone know I'm yours.
27:19Done.
27:26Wasn't it supposed to go both ways?
27:28Why didn't he kiss me?
27:29No.
27:31Hopefully, he would understand what he had done wrong.
27:33And next time, he would offer to kiss me too.
27:36After college started, I joined the volleyball club.
27:39At first, everything seemed normal.
27:41Then I realized Coach was strange.
27:43Whenever he corrected my posture, he stood too close.
27:46Lily, raise your arms.
27:47He came up behind me.
27:49I could almost feel his breath near the back of my neck.
27:51I stepped away quietly.
27:53You can just tell me what to fix.
27:55But you're too stiff, freshman.
27:57Other girls wish I'd help him myself.
28:01Wow, Lily.
28:02Coach is so nice to you.
28:07If you didn't already have a boyfriend, you could totally consider him.
28:09Boyfriend?
28:10You have a boyfriend?
28:13You have a boyfriend and didn't say anything?
28:15What were you leading me on?
28:16Did you ask?
28:17And honestly, you're not exactly worth leading on.
28:20Who do you think you're talking to?
28:22Your boyfriend isn't even on his level.
28:25He's useless and creepy.
28:27Before I could think, I walked up to Bella.
28:29Then I slapped her hard across the face.
28:31I warned you not to insult Sebastian again.
28:36You hit me?
28:37Next second, she lunged at me.
28:39We crashed into each other.
28:41All the anger I had swallowed for years finally came out.
28:44Three girls finally pulled me away.
28:46You started it.
28:47Stay after practice.
28:49Run drills until I say you're done.
28:51Bella climbed up from the ground.
28:56Bella dusts herself off and smiles like she has won.
29:00Under the evening heat, I stayed on the court and ran drills alone.
29:04By the time coach finally let me go, everyone else had already left.
29:07I dragged myself back to the dorm.
29:09After I showered, I was too tired to move.
29:12I was also starving.
29:13Then Sebastian called and made me come downstairs.
29:15The moment I saw him, I fell into his arms and started complaining.
29:19Turn around.
29:24Sebastian, I'm so hungry.
29:25I barely ate anything today.
29:27I really want sausage rolls.
29:29Sebastian went quiet.
29:31He helped me sit on the bench nearby.
29:33Then he went to buy food for me.
29:38After I finished eating, he checked his phone.
29:47Go back and rest, Lily.
29:48I have something to do.
29:50I'll come find you later.
29:54Okay, I'll head back.
29:58Then he turned away.
30:00But I remembered the message I had accidentally seen on his phone.
30:04I quietly followed him.
30:06For some reason, I suddenly thought of Blake showing up with bruises back in senior year.
30:10Pieces of old memories came together in my head, and they all pointed to one fact.
30:15Sebastian had been pretending to be weak this whole time.
30:18That guess was confirmed when I stood outside the pool hall.
30:22Sebastian stood beside a pool table.
30:24Coach and three other guys lay scattered across the floor.
30:28Sebastian did not have a scratch on him.
30:35Coach, you were interested in my girlfriend?
30:39No, no.
30:40I wasn't.
30:41I swear.
30:47My girlfriend had a rough day.
30:49How are you planning to make it up to her?
30:51What do you want me to do?
30:56Sebastian!
30:57My voice was calm.
30:58His whole body froze.
30:59Until Coach and the others ran out in a panic, Sebastian still did not turn around.
31:04I walked over and crouched in front of him.
31:06Then I took the broken pool cue out of his hand.
31:09Sebastian lowered his hand.
31:10His throat moved a few times before he spoke.
31:16I'm sorry.
31:21Are you going to break up with me?
31:23I looked up at once.
31:25His eyes were red.
31:26He looked nothing like the harmless Sebastian who leaned on me and said his stomach hurt.
31:31I sighed and curled my fingers into his palm.
31:34Only then did he calm down a little.
31:36Of course I'm not breaking up with you over this.
31:38I just don't understand why you lied to me.
31:42Because I knew you didn't like me.
31:45You only agreed to date me because you felt sorry for me.
31:50If I didn't look pitiful enough, you would leave.
31:55Sebastian, look at me.
31:57I feel sorry for a lot of people.
32:01But I don't date them just because they're pitiful.
32:06Liking someone isn't charity.
32:09It's not something I hand out because someone looks sad.
32:13You can't lie to me.
32:26If I'm lying, I'll never get to eat sausage rolls again.
32:30That night, we walked through the quiet street outside campus.
32:34I swung his hand as I walked.
32:36Listen.
32:38We're actually perfect for each other.
32:40You're really good at fighting.
32:42And I'm pretty good too.
32:45Today, I basically pinned Bella to the ground.
32:49She barely touched me.
32:50Her face is going to be swollen for at least a week.
32:57Next time, you don't have to do it.
32:59I'll handle them.
33:01But Bella is a girl.
33:03I'll use a pink bat.
33:10I like you so much, Sebastian Cole.
33:12I'm really good at things later.
33:13But Bella is a girl.
33:13I like you so much,
