Mila!

Dry the tears you've shed

shed in the name of love

Whoo.

Oh, my God.

Look at this place.

- Astor, stop.

- Just... stop.

Stop.

We should break up.

What?

I don't make you happy.

Not everyone is happy-go-lucky

all the time, Astor.

- You should be.

- Why?

The world is not made up

of singing birds and dancing.

I wish my mom would write "happy

birthday" on my cake in jam.

I've never seen you eat cake.

I don't eat cake.

I'm a pretty face.

That's my value.

You're not just a pretty face.

You got a good body, too.

Right.

So, you've loved me

since we were kids

because I was

the prettiest girl you knew?

I thought you had some heart,

that maybe you love me

for other reasons,

that you would lift me

above that.

You've always been my girl,

but...

But what?

I...

We're no... we're...

You're actually

breaking up with me.

That's okay.

I'm gonna find happiness

on my own.

Besides, it's obvious

that you like Cali.

Oh, come on.

I mean, I saw the way her eyes

lit up when we were birding.

You guys have been

running around chasing girls,

trying to get you laid.

You think

women want to be played,

that we want to be seduced

by technique?

You think you understand women

because you've had a threesome?

I didn't sleep with them.

It's awkward when

you can't tell the difference

between two girls.

Do you honestly think

Cali's gonna want you

when you're so desperately

trying to be a male slut?

- Don't use that word.

- It discourages free behavior.

Male? I thought

that was the one word that meant

you could do whatever you want

and no consequences.

Actually, I meant "slut."

It's a dirty word

for "liberated."

I'm gonna tell you

one more thing.

Girls want a guy that's nice,

sure.

They also want a man.

Your sweetness is charming,

Astor.

But it's not always

gonna be enough.

Sorry for being sweet.

No, what? No.

Just... could you go?

You say

that we're different

I feel the same

sunshine and rain

make a beautiful thing

my strength is your weakness

my heart is own

your voice breaks my silence

then we're alone

sunshine and rain

Hey.

Hi. I'm trinity.

This is my sister, divinity.

Boo.

Hi.

It's good to see you.

It's going.

Come and sit down.

Hey

it's happened again

no

hey

I cannot leave

you know

hey

forget how to breathe again

hey

I cannot just leave again

I love your eyes

and your smile

so won't you please invite me

to stay for a while?

'cause the ride home's long

and the birds

will sing a song

if we spent this moment

together

watch the sun rise up

together again

mm

So, you, uh,

broke up with Mila.

Thought you loved her.

I love her like a sister.

Well, it's a good thing you

stopped sleeping with her, then.

Been on any other dates?

I'm taking a break

from all that.

Well, it's a numbers game,

Astor.

You look phased again.

No.

I'm just cruising along.

Take it or leave it.

Take me or leave me.

Like an old couch

on the sidewalk.

Some of those couches

are pretty comfy.

- And who are you chasing?

- Franck?

No. I opened my eyes.

You sure about that?

Are you trying

to hit on me again?

I'm not playing games.

I told you I liked you,

and I meant it.

- Yeah, I get it.

- No, you don't.

We had fun together, Cali.

Running around chasing girls?

We have fun

no matter what we do.

- Are we having fun now?

- Yes.

We would be

if you would just let me in.

You make me so happy, Cali.

And... and... and if you let go

for one second,

you'd see

that I make you happy, too.

Isn't that why you tease me

all the time?

I don't see how anyone

could resist making fun of you.

I'm yours if you want me, Cali.

We might just fall in love.

Yeah.

And you might

just break my heart.

Could you love me that much

that that would be possible?

Maybe.

That would be wonderful.

Oh, my God.

Hey.

Hey! Come back here!

Whoo!

Whoa!

Whoo!

Oh, my God.
