Prompt: Gravitation isn't responsible for people falling in love - The Scientist

"I hate math."
"No, you don't. You just hate studying."
Austin frowns and juts his lower lip out at his girlfriend. Ally laughs and leans over to kiss his cheek. The blond grins, properly pacified, and tugs her over into his lap.
"Austin! I have to study!" She squirms in his grip, but he just holds her tighter and buries his face in her neck. When it becomes clear that he won't let go, she reaches for her text book and plops it on her legs before settling into his embrace.
"You have studied enough for one day. We've wasted the entire afternoon practically!" the blond exclaims, his voice slightly muffled.
Ally raises an eyebrow, "Excuse me for wanting to get a good grade on my physics final."
"Come on, Alls. You know the material backwards and forwards. You're kind of a genius, you know." The boy lifts his head to look at her and the brunette girl rolls her eyes.
"You're lucky you're cute."
As she turns to look back at the textbook, Austin points to a highlighted line, "That's wrong."
"What? No, that's the correct definition of gravity."
The blond shakes his head, his hair flopping into his eyes, "Nope. It says that it is the cause of all attraction between physical bodies. The last time I checked, you and I are both physical bodies and gravity is most definitely not the reason I fell in love with you."
She looks down to hide the blush creeping up her face and giggles softly.
Austin nods fiercely, "It's true. I fell in love with you because of your sweetness. Because of the way your eyes light up when you see a shooting star. Because of how beautiful you are, inside and out. And most importantly, because you are the only person that understands me. You're amazing, Ally Dawson, and I figured that out all by myself without any aide from gravity."
"I guess gravity is responsible for a lot of things, but not for us falling in love."
