the perfect harmony scene was julies imagination so what if she writes down the lyrics and puts it in her special box and luke finds it and thinks it’s about him at first but then realizes her and nick have been having out a lot so it’s probably about him and he gets jealous

when they’re all rehearsing he goes “that was great guys... really some PERFECT HARMONY” and julie is like...?

“luke WHAT are you talking about”
“nothing. it’s absolutely nothing.”
“... you went through my box?? again?! HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT BOUNDARIES? JUST BC UR A GHOST DOESNT MEA-“
“EXACTLY. IM A GHOST. I DIED JULIE. that’s all i could ever be.”

“Luke i-“
“i don’t think you get it julie. i might have a second chance to play music but i’ll never have a second chance of LIFE. i’ll never get to grow up. i’m going to be 17 forever. you’re going to grow up, get married, have kids, and move on with your life. move on from us.”

THEN THE THING THAT BREAKS HIM IS THAT HES COMING TO THE REALIZATION THAT WHAT THEY HAVE COULD NEVER BE FOREVER
