Gaston was walking down the street. He notices Thea walk into the bookstore. He decides that it's time to shoot his shot. He walks into the bookstore, and says to Thea, "What are you doing in an old bookstore like this?"
He continued walking through the streets of town, heading home, still reading and trying to ignore Gaston as he walked briskly, trying to get away from him
(I just thought of that tiktok that says every gay loves Disney but anyways sorry-)
"It's fine to read of course. But why would a beautiful boy like you go to the worst bookshop in town? It does not make sense. You are worth more than that Thea."
"What book?" He snatches the book out of Thea's hand. He let out a short, sparky laugh. "Ha! Romeo and Juliet? I- I mean it's a great story I suppose . . . How about . . . I'll be your Romeo tonight if you go out with me?"
