Paulo needs to turn around, face Lucy, and simply admit that he has a crush on her. Otherwise, he won't get anywhere. Even getting rejected would at least mean an answer (however depressing it may be) and then he could get on with his life.
even if he isn't scared of finding out what Lucy thinks of him, telling someone that you Like them (...I couldn't type Love my hands just wouldn't type it.) when you're not in a relationship can be hard and it's also something I don't think Paulo has had to do. He went out with Jasmine but I he didn't confess love in fact the whole thing happened 'cos David was worried about him. But Paulo probably is worried about what Lucy thinks about him seeing as he obviously quite likes her and while he got up the nerve to talk to her weather he can bring himself to admit that he Likes Lucy is a different matter. (dammit still can't type Love)
All in all I agree with you Paulo needs to find out if Lucy likes him and if not he's going to have to move on otherwise the relationship chart I'm trying to draw is going to get very complex

Paulo doesn't necessarily need to tell Lucy he loves her (I agree that's a bit strong of a word to throw around, especially for a teenager who hasn't been in many relationships*). But he does need to let her know that he's interested in her.
I do know from personal experience how hard it can be to admit you like someone a lot. I had a crush on a girl for years before I finally nutted up and told her. It ultimately didn't work out between us, but I don't regret that at all; the only thing I regret is not having told her a lot sooner. Although on the other side of the coin, there are instances where it can be too soon to admit to a crush, i.e. before getting to know the other person well (something else which I also experienced). I don't think the latter situation applies to Paulo and Lucy though.
* This reminds me of how Abbey and Daisy got together in "New Beginnings", particularly pages 8 and 12.

But Abby and Daisy where both a lot more open about how they felt and Abby had a good reason for not admitting his liking of daisy (oh god the poor grammar i think i killed it
) Paulo had a okay reason that really won't hold out for much longer and Lucy's probable in denial about something, not sure what but I'm sure there something.

Im disappointed in lucy because her eys are so selfishly blind to her own sad ness that she cant see the face paulo wares. She went like what the whole day looking like that wen she was trying to tell mike she loved him and Paulo only gets a few minutes to tell her how he feels. To much feelings for to little time. Im whoundering if paulo had wounderland dremes like lucy.

Well, that was awfully unexpected. Paulo should probably question this, seeing as how everyone and their mother knows that she is emotionally and psychologically unstable. WOULDN'T WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF LUCY, PAULO!

I'll wouldn't be surprised if Lucy is just being sarcastic over Paulo's obvious passion. Still, Paulo should listen to his dick. It knows when a woman of questionable sanity/motives might be contemplating to procreate. It's thanks to that potential mistakes like "Another Path" never happened.

The depression in Lucy's eyes is really sad. At this point, it kind of looks like she's just given up.

While that was an interesting turn of events, it was rather sudden. Something's wrong. It would be far more important for Paulo to tell her he loves her before they start any semi-gratifying amorous activities, so she knows exactly where he stands.

Just because Mouse is holding your cat hostage doesn't mean it needs to come to this.
I have a running theory about this page:
I doubt it's something like 'Paulo misheard' or anything. What I think is that Lucy's wanting a completely physical relationship - the 'emotionless doll' kind of thing. She's looking for an outlet for some feelings, and Paulo is the perfect outlet there. Paulo will be wanting more from the relationship (and they'll have a conflict down the line, probably), but for the time being, he'll accept it.
Oh, wait, I'm supposed to be recklessly taunting Ace or something aren't I

Oh. Well, that was surprising.
Really hope Lucy isn't surrendering to becoming dependent on Paulo though, or using him as a rebound like she did in "Another Shoulder". Then again, some people tend to fall into a vicious cycle where they make the same mistakes over and over again. It may be up to Paulo to say "No, wait, something's wrong here", however much he may desire to make out with Lucy. Then again, Paulo'shuman cat too; he could well succumb to his own desires, as in the last panel.
Although another scenario could be that Lucy has realized (from "Piece of Cake") that Paulo really does like her, and she's thought it over, and she wants to make this happen. But then, how would she know that he's broken up with Jasmine? Or possibly Lucy knows that she's going somewhere else for a long while (mental hospital?) and wants one last kiss from Paulo, regardless of whether he's already with Jasmine or not.

You'd have to be a threat to yourself or others (ignoring the part about hanging around on top of buildings, her family probably doesn't know about that) and/or have quite the meltdown to be committed to a mental hospital or psych ward, not just depression (I'm basing this on personal experience, I don't claim to be an expert). I would assume if that is indeed the sort of thing Lucy's family was talking about, at the start of the previous chapter, I bet it would be some sort regular councelling at the least or sending her to a heavy duty councelling facility (like rehab, but for your head) at the most. Who knows, maybe she'll have to be put on meds and she wants Paulo as some sort of "I want to feel something while I can still feel" kinda thing. I dunno, we'll see.
But you know what would be fun? Lucy misses her scene and fucks up the play because she's busy fucking Paulo. Even better? She makes it to her scene on time but slips on stage during an important moment because of the semen dripping out (or Mike slips in it!
).

So this is the part where she opens her lower jaw into halves and a small army of screeching Dick Spiders spills forth and picks Paulo apart.

I'm feeling sorry for Paulo right now, not only is someone almost defiantly drawing him being torn apart by spiders (I hate spiders), but this is also some kind of: Joke, Fantasy, Dream, This is one of those weird alternate path things that (story wise) are disregarded after they end , or he's been knocked unconscious by a falling anvil and is currently in hospital (refer to Dream). The alternate path one is unlikely 'cos normally the real event (the one that effects the plot) happens before the joke, kick to Paulo's nuts one. My bet is either Dream or anvil to the head.

I wasn't complaining I just felt a bit of sympathy for the dude being killed by spiders and probably being misled by Lucy. Or it may be a dream, I still think anvil though

Ah this. This is wrong. This is Lucy going with the flow and wanting to pull herself deeper, but not want it to look like its her fault. She's using Paulo as her excuse, she'll blame him later. (Anybody read 13 Reasons Why? Reminds me of that...)

Im looking for lucy character development in this chapter. She has ben doing some selfish bich thinking and I think she has made some progress unless they start making out and then start having sex on the floor to were sue or jess or preferably mike has to come to get lucy for her part. If they start making out all hope is lost for there relationship. Lucy is just pulling paulo's dick for fun because he is being a wussy pussy which is not like him so she is just trying to get him back to normal. I think lucy may no what he has to say now.

I'm not quite sure about that - Lucy seems to have her head on her shoulders (maybe not so much after this last page) but I don't think she's saying that to 'revert' Paulo. Maybe on the next page she'll be all: "JK JK just spit it out" but if not she's just gonna go with it, probably in the same way Spacemouse theorized.
