Which means it feels like almost nothing. How many times do I have to say it to myself before I'm really (seventeen)?
On your birthday, they ask how old you are in every class. And in every class, you look at the room full of people and you say, "I'm seventeen". Of course you say that, because it's your birthday and you're fucking proud of it, but you don't tell people because that would be childish. You talk like the grown-ups!
It's funny because it's not a change. It's been in there, somewhere, in my DNA or something. It was always going to be like this, just the same as I was always going to turn seventeen.
It's just difficult. People say 'Mulder' and I can't tell them not to. I don't have evidence.
It needs to be sealed with a kiss.
