Joe & Ray Pt.1
Joe: [Okay, so without committing you to anything major here, itās Beaās 11th bday and Ray is obviously hating life like a lil hater]
Joe: You want a surprise? š
Ray: You tell me
Joe: You do but itās a secret
Joe: soz you canāt steal her thunder, like
Ray: what thunderās that like?
Ray: wet weekend in here at bestĀ
Joe: lucky I didnāt let Sarah gatecrash like she wanted āļø wouldnāt do
Ray: shouldāve sheād have had a grid to match the show this bday is
Joe: should know sheās well too mature to DO birthdays, whatever the fuck that means
Joe: Sarah not got the memo and the cards in the post š¬
Ray: @ her age Iād be swerving 2 ā ļøĀ
Ray: least til she can get a lad older to hang about with her instead of u š¬ is right
Joe: You aināt heard her pitch on how dead mature I am?
Joe: tells everyone, like a right suspect character, her š
Ray: must be that she knows not to talk to me if sheās keen to keep her š
idk
Joe: pros and cons of her having one for me
Joe: anyway, trying to cheer you up, not get you into a more murderous rage here
Ray: come on then
Joe: Let me build some anticipation, youāre not even excited at all yet
Joe: have a guess or some bollocks, go on
Ray: Iām made up Sarahās not on her way
Ray: wonāt that do?
Joe: makes two of us
Joe: who would you be buzzing to have pop āround though š
Ray: Kurtās not coming to save us
Ray: rub salt into both mine & Tommoās wounds why donāt u like heās not already š not to be š
Joe: close
Joe: probably likes dress up even more than Kurt, more than Tommo might be a stretch though
Ray: eee youāve only gone & invited [whoever the local weirdo is who we donāt think it really is but weāre saying for the bants like happy birthday Bea haha] aināt youse??!
Joe: Said it was a š for you not her, didnāt I
Joe: Iām telling you in person anyway, and not in here ācos youāre gonna throw an eppy
Joe: find a flimsy reason to go in the garden beyond needing to š¤® and Iāll see you out there
Ray: You wanna be thanked in person cos itās that top of a pressie Iāve š that far
Ray: just as well I have seeing as Iāll be š§ ā ļø trying to think of a reason more legit than š¤®
Joe: I know, sounding like him with how made up with myself I am
Joe: but keeping you and Bea apart is always a top idea, even when thereās š to hand out so
Ray: I dunno what you mean š¼š¼ all day us
Ray: no šŖ pointed @ nobody myself included
Joe: Iāll go and get one, sweeten the deal
Joe: [do piss off to the kitchen from wherever weāre all congregated and then out to the back garden casually, not like youāve got to be glued to the spot when everyoneās milling about the house]
Ray: š¤
Ray: [show up more or less immediately because nobody really cares that much what yāall are doing ever is the vibe]
Joe: [you can have swings here because forever home so weāre just swinging casually like oh hey but grinning ācos canāt help it]
Ray: [obviously also grinning because itās infectious and also your clues have actually shown this is gonna be a decent surprise so, lowkey push him off the swing so you can get on it in a sibling but also flirty manner]
Joe: [getting the kitchen knife out your pocket like oi, nearly murdered me because youāre never meant to put open knives in your pockets itās so dangerous for that reason, not saying you just impaled him though lmao, hope Tess doesnāt need to peel any potatoes or whatever, āscuse you, pointing it at her again in the sibling but flirty manner ābetter?ā]
Ray: [just swinging REALLY high on this stolen swing like nbd we couldāve killed you but LOOKING at you in a not at all sibling version of eye contact as is your blatant vibe āwhen Iāve had it confirmed what else youāve got up your sleeveā cos we have our sneaky suspicions from the clues but not gonna get our hopes up if itās not that epic]
Joe: [just getting in and out of the way of her feet, getting closer to getting fully booted in the face each time, fully imagining your mother out the kitchen window like oi lmao but sheās got things to do sheās a busy woman so weāre fine; abruptly grabbing the ropes of this swing to stop you so you jerk violently to a halt and probably lowkey fall off yourself here so we have proximity to LOOK at you ourselves and also not be shouting this sneaky plan out for the world to know, roll up one of your actual sleeves, because she clearly is aware of the damage underneath but weāre showing you a phone number in biro as if youāre gonna know where itās for but youād likely know itās a Belfast area code at least]
Ray: [when his antics trying to get booted in the face make your grin even bigger than before because weāre NOT WELL and the stopping of the swing makes you do a little lol for the same reason, but then youāre in each otherās grill exchanging LOOKS and you know damn well sheās tracing that Belfast area code with her finger like yep I knew and I know where this is going, as much excitement as weāve ever shown or been capable of in our life being displayed on her face and in her body language rn, FULLY giving into it and throwing her arms around him in SUCH a hug]
Joe: [hugging you back but putting our hand over your mouth like youāre gonna scream purely ācos we wanna also you might, ātis exciting lol]
Ray: [letting this happen lowkey forever because weāre into it as much as he is, obvs, itās a moment and we do be that excited anything could happen rn if we donāt haha]
Joe: [are going to have to let her breathe at whatever time youāve deemed sheās not going to scream, totally the only reason to prolong that, yup; show her whatever confirmation you got too ātickets on their wayā still grinning]
Ray: [mhmm, totally the only reason this gal is super lightheaded and happy and excited, itās just the tickets guys, not at all the looming incest āI pure love youā an understatement at this point but what she always says and all we have to say]
Joe: [āI love you anā allā because what else can you say rn but nerding out about the music which goes without saying here āyou canāt tell no dickhead though, you never know who might snitch ācos they donāt get to goā tea, the jealousy have some random hoes trying to ruin your fun, a look like obvs I know you aināt that stupid though]
Ray: [just dramatically holding this kitchen knife up to our throat like I would literally rather die than have this be ruined because honestly that is too real especially because yāall are all poor and loads of your friends wouldnāt be able to go for that reason even if they were older than you, itās an actual miracle you got 2 tickets yourself Joseph with how quick shit like that sells out, put his hand on the handle of said knife like you can press down rn and kill me sir before thatās happening]
Joe: [the line we are walking right now as we see how much we can press it down without breaking the skin, which weād at least have a good concept of with who we are so thereās no accidental bloodshed here āwas meant to fall on her birthdayā like the fuck you is the cherry on the cake for you and we know it hence we couldnāt wait to tell you]
Ray: [the line this gal could so easily cross rn with the way weāre once again LOOKING at Joe and are too into everything thatās happening here in this garden on this day, the actual shameless gasp at that news because itās EVERYTHING]
Joe: [we can all see it coming in the air tonight but excuse me, got to hold off ātil November actually so only drag that knife down to her collarbones and then put it away tah]
Ray: [once that knife is safely away just throw yourself on him like you did in the other convo because always, weāre too happy for boundaries rn āheās trying to save usā cos canāt save anyone but soz Kurt Gerard Wayās trying his best with how fated that date is]
Joe: [weāre never stopping you, which again, red flag everyone but you do you, just nod āI wonāt let no dickhead mess with you in Belfast neitherā working with Kurt to keep you safe from the actual real dangers that exist as children going on a jolly to another town in another country, literally]
Ray: [āand Iāll not let anyone youā love that we think we can protect each other from how terrifyingly wrong this could go, if we needed proof of how young you both are, there it is āgirls here are bad enoughā canāt resist the Sarah shade a second later though ofc]
Joe: [smirk emoji of course āshe aināt comingā because 2nd best news youāll get today so have it]
Ray: [āsaves having to resell her ticket outsideā with the energy of even if you were planning on inviting her thereās no way sheāll survive til Nov to make it to the gig lol]
Joe: [laugh a little because yeah, obviously, how many girls will we have gone through by then ābe enough lads and lasses there, like you saidā with the energy of we could both hook up with randoms if we wanted ācos we can do anything we wanna excitement]
Ray: [āWeāll be there, one each of āemā cos canāt actually believe this is real and wonāt until the tickets have physically arrived levels of excitement]
Joe: [we wonāt get too excited until we actually get there ācos kind of person we are but likewise like yeah canāt believe Iāve pulled this off tbf āthatās your christmas present doneā nudging her like I am skint ācos definitely been saving for this]
Ray: [nudge him back like I canāt believe you did this without me realising you were or pulled it off but shamelessly have no doubt even at this point that weāll get there somehow cos just that bitch āDunno how Iām meant to do fuck all as class for yours or your birthdayā cos truly]
Joe: [ādonāt do birthdaysā in whatever weāre trying to pass off as a Bea impersonation to make you laugh but also because we obviously are not fussed]
Ray: [do your own Fraze impression back because you are both so anti baze it amuses me]
Joe: [shudder āweirder ācos you look like himā because thatās true, even if heās starting to look more manly and youāre not, thank god lmao]
Ray: [punch him as hard as you physically can because ew we hate that]
Joe: [never react normally to physical violence, just pressing down on wherever she just hit like weāre making sure it bruises like deserved that]
Ray: [look down at whatever lewk we are serving in honour of the festivities and back at him like take it back that I look like my twin rn immediately ātell me I donātā cos cannot be overstated how much we hate it, not even just as pure shade to Fraze though she obvs doesnāt like him that much but mostly because it makes her feel like less of a person and weāre already struggling with feeling like we arenāt one a lot of the time]
Joe: [draw your attention back to her when she speaks so you can also look at her fit and really stare at her like youāre making your mind up here and shake your head āeven if I came at you with this-ā and put your hand in your pocket to push the knife into her side a little ā-you still wouldnāt be half the state he is, swearā]
Ray: [āif you came at me with that-ā pausing to look at the knife before putting her hand over his so we can press it in harder than he is āyouād reckon I was dead prettyā because Joseph weāve got your number by now boy and we know exactly what youāre into]
Joe: [make the noise you make when youāre stopping yourself from making any others out loud āI already doā shrugging like itās casual when itās anything but]
Ray: [smiling the way you would if your crush said that and not your older brother because of course, not full on blushing emoji but a lil bit even though weād be used to him saying that by now too, never fully used to it]
Joe: [āIām going to have to keep such a close eye on you at the gigā just saying sheāll look that good, as you do]
Ray: [āyou can dress me for it, long as itās not properly like a nunā lol imagine, nbd just a normal thing for siblings to do, not at all weird]
Joe: [ābe on themeā ācos the catholicism sis and we canāt safely say anything else about that when weāre already hooking our thumbs through your belt loops to pull you even closer into this knife/us]
Ray: [āyeahā distractedly at first because weāre thinking about how aesthetically wild this gig is going to be and how here for that we are but then because of those antics, the most intense LOOK of all time happening as a result, just staring unashamedly at you cos gotta will you with our eyes to go even harder with it or who are we]
Joe: [pushing your jeans down slightly when we move but not enough that you can say we meant to for definite but we know we did ācould nick you a whole new outfit for thenā maintaining eye contact because likewise we must even though itās a terrible idea]
Ray: [āhow am I gonna pay you back?ā like youāve literally already got me the best present ever and now this but we know damn well the undertones that exist in there]
Joe: [ādonāt get upā ācos we all know whatās happening here heās only human and youāre gonna feel that so soz girl]
Ray: [in response get even more settled where you are like okay I wonāt donāt worry cos if you were freaked out by this who are you at this point]
Joe: [just stroke her hair and try to calm down for both yāalls sake here]
Ray: [āWhat organ would it hit?ā like if you did stab me for real rn what damage would it do, again a perfectly normal question for this nbd scenario]
Joe: [youāre a nerd so you probably have a solid idea so tell her where it is right now and then put your hand back between you two which is an even tighter squeeze now and move it to various different locations for different organs and severities here]
Ray: [obvs gonna press against him more whenever he gets to somewhere you like the sound of because this is creepy flirting at itās finest and why would we stop now]
Joe: [āI have sharper onesā because obviously we do and this blunt kitchen knife is not good enough for either of us is the energy of us basically whispering this in your ear āI could fucking gut youā]
Ray: [the reaction as if he just said such a romantic and nice thing would be a red flag if anyone was around to hear or see any of this āthatās your christmas present done tooā like yes murder me under the tree, how festive]
Joe: [an evil laugh not unlike mingles honestly but you know, less cute āif you wrap yourself in a bow firstā like then itāll be totally acceptable, yep]
Ray: [ācourseā like obvs, what else would I do in this totally normal scenario]
Joe: [āyour christmas savedā like see it also being a present for yourself to be dead]
Ray: [a little pout when it occurs to her heās right and how selfish that is, that she gets to be dead āfollow meā cos you have to be dead too then, nothing else makes sense āhowever you want toā]
Joe: [ādonāt be sadā at her pout and taking this knife and putting it under her top to touch the skin on her stomach without clothes in the way like there you go, thatāll make you feel better āyou canāt be on your ownā like itās that simple and obvious that heād have to die too]
Ray: [āDonāt leave me, everā because literally cannot deal even in a hypothetical]
Joe: [āIāve always been with youā is all the response you need]
Ray: [getting even closer somehow as if weāre not in the garden and siblings, itās totally fine āyou didnāt choose none of it thoughā like decide you donāt ever want to leave me thank you]
Joe: [āyouāre mine, you donāt get no say in itā fiercely like thatās just how it is and thereās nothing anyone or anything can do about that āI donāt need no fucking bowā putting our other hand over your mouth again, just briefly like I did and could again]
Ray: [a nod like yep thatās accurate info and not at all not something your brother should be saying to you āyou can still have itā very much in the energy of you can literally have anything you want because whereās the lie]
Joe: [āwhen youāre readyā¦ā canāt finish that sentence so just nodding right back]
Ray: [āwhen Sarah gets the memoā meaning all Sarahs here, none of you are welcome or appreciated, like she is our ONLY obstacle, sure Jan]
Joe: [āin my head, she has frecklesā and tracing a pattern on her cheeks, just saying we picture you instead, cool]
Ray: [āshould try drawing a few onā UM no donāt stab this girl in the face with the blunt kitchen knife weāre looking at with purpose]
Joe: [bucking our hips into you involuntarily āI should show you what happens when you push meā and scowling on the low ācos we canāt deal with this]
Ray: [ābut wait, you canāt think about that, or her, more than meā cos weāre like oh no he was into that and we must be prettier and more loved than every Sarah, excuse us]
Joe: [āIām not thinking about her, everā half-exasperated because thatās so obvious to us]
Ray: [ābossā genuinely so relieved like oh yay thank god, cos the insecurities of being this age and a girl mean itās never that obvious to us]
Joe: [shaking our head but not harshly āyou know what I would do for youā]
Ray: [āand to meā could not sound happier about it, actually buzzing]
Joe: [āyouād never do this with anyone else, would you?ā]
Ray: [shaking her head the exact same way he did a second ago and for the exact same reason that it couldnāt be more obvious that we would never, literally is repulsed by other lads to an almost comical degree]
Joe: [ābut you like when I do it, yeah?ā tilting her chin towards us ābecause I love you so muchā]
Ray: [āI like everything you doā because true, everything he does however weird makes sense to us in a way that other peopleās antics simply donāt]Ā
Joe: [making mm good sort of reassuring noises āyou could- I mean, youāve done it in front of Bea probably, sheās not even bloodā oh boy we know what youāre saying shh]
Ray: [āI willā before the words are even out of his mouth or we have any clue what heās trying to say because the energy is regardless we would do it with no hesitation whatsoever]Ā
Joe: [when we know you agreed before understanding fully so weāre just looking at you TORN like do we accept that or nah, is this alright or nah ālater?ā because if itās wrong weāll have totally calmed down and come to our senses by then, right?]
Ray: [āwheneverā because just fully down at all times as if thatās not dangerous or troubling]Ā
Joe: [āI wanna see your face, what it looks likeā fully LOOKING now as if you could just do it right here on the grass in the middle of the day]
Ray: [SOS for the way sheās bringing her face closer and closer to his, somebody in this family needs to throw a bucket of water on you two]Ā
Joe: [āyou think about me, donāt youā when sheās close enough to feel your breath and for your lips to brush when they move as you say it]
Ray: [āalwaysā because facts, youāre so in each otherās heads by this point]Ā
Joe: [āno oneās comingā like I could take this so much further ācos where are they ājust me and you foreverā]
Ray: [ānobody ever doesā cos tea, canāt and wonāt be saved, soz gal āexcept for youā when you genuinely feel like nobody else in this massive fam remotely notices or cares about you]
Joe: [doing our own sad face āIāll do a better jobā the tea is you canāt but appreciate the effort āmake you feel so betterā]
Ray: [āyou canāt do no betterā 1000% mean that with our whole heart, weāre so happy today, the hottest tea is that a concert should not be giving you a reason to want to carry on living at age 11 but here we are]
Joe: [āI canā tilting her chin again and moving her head so the back on her neck is exposed to us and kissing her softly but quickly there]
Ray: [we canāt and wonāt discuss the way that would involuntarily make her move in response, soz boy, we were about to protest because weāre not trying to add to the pressure you feel as oldest to do everything, but thereās no arguing with that]
Joe: [grabbing your waist as involuntarily and so tightly we shock ourselves slightly, starting to move her ourselves replicating and matching with our own movements āremember, weāre gonna share a king-sizeā]
Ray: [just allowing all of this to unfold, why wouldnāt we āI canāt let myself forgetā like yet again, donāt get it twisted this is one of the few things that make life worth living, not at all alarming]
Joe: [āand none of that lot have a keyā maintaining these movements like weāre in a bed in private now]
Ray: [ānor do I, only you doā because she literally said she wouldnāt ever leave and we meant that, would definitely never leave the house now if that was allowed but your parents arenāt that unaware or uncaring soz hun]
Joe: [āI keep you safe, away from the world, youāre too preciousā hugging her tighter again, pulling her so youāre both in a seated position now instead]
Ray: [āyouāre it, I donāt wanna be part of a world thatās fuck all elseā again the conviction of this, girl youāre 11]
Joe: [āyouāre the only person I loveā likewise]
Ray: [look at him because you feel the exact same way obvs āI know I should love them lot the same but-ā when you canāt finish that sentence because you donāt even really know why you canāt or donāt]
Joe: [shrug, not nonchalantly but after some consideration āthey have each otherā like we do too, itās no different]
Ray: [āis right, and none of āem have had me the way you doā yet again we just feel ignored or misunderstood by the rest of yāall soz but thatās how it is]
Joe: [āgood, theyād only fuck it upā the faith we have in none of you, soz but we know why]
Ray: [excuse her trying not to cry at how true that is and how true it is that Joe has literally never, however weird we are]
Joe: [just back to stroking your hair ācos we know, no need to say anything]
Ray: [just have a moment to snuggle, clearly nobody is paying attention to you so, kiss his cheek after however long youāve taken to recover and not sob like thanks]
Joe: [ignore every urge to convert that, thank you, just smile at her āone of us has to go firstā ācos 0 desire but all the desire to keep ramping this up]
Ray: [āI owe youā because we do, for the gift of mcr if nothing else, but not actually making a move to leave yet because likewise would rather stay here forever]
Joe: [an amused noise like yeah you do āonly a bitā]
Ray: [a noise like oh excuse you/me and playfully fight him in a that was your cue to be like no you donāt itās fine and go full gentleman about it lol kind of way but really youāre just prolonging how long youāre here and the closeness + physical touch of it all, we see you]
Joe: [at least you have an excuse to be down on the ground when one of your parents finally appears to be like come eat some food or whatever so we can break this up without either of you having to]
Ray: [not eating because we hold the food personally responsible for ruining our good time but cockblock achieved]
Joe: [we probably have some food ritual we have to stealthily engage in right now, āscuse us everyone]
Ray: [the guests youād love to have at your bday, soz Bea]
Joe: [we know you two will piss off yourselves as soon as you can without offending mcvickers, ah what a charming age lmao]
Ray: [speaking of, I have to point out something that JUST occurred to me, Iāve never not had gig tickets go on sale on Friday at like 10am in the history of the world ever so that means this needs to be friday like after school vibes for said tickets to have been secured by Joe earlier on a skive and the potential for you pair to piss off at night to your dangerous location of choice and be buzzing because you have this secret now that none of your friends and his gf donāt know is too excellent]
Joe: [I looked and her bday this year was actually Wednesday but Iām gonna change it because I have an accidental 13 bias so her bday can be the 15th instead, it doesnāt change anything lol because yes, itās definitely the vibe]
Ray: [Joeās gf is gonna be fuming and I couldnāt be more amused by that, they already leave this gal out all the time so blatantly]
Joe: [thereās only so long you can convince yourself you want a ābad boyā Sarah, he just doesnāt give a fuck is the actual reality youāre ignoring here]
Ray: [youāre definitely getting dumped soon, boy, thank god we can line another girl up to cockblock yāall because itās the slutty alternative era]
Joe: [yeah this one be on the wetter hen side of things, some of them give as little shits obviously, even if they think Ray is weird as hell still]
Ray: [valid ladies, she is, but yeah, definitely giving the train track vibe of that other convo we did but more feral is my thinking]
Joe: [clearly barely a bastard train runs after 10pm so have at it children lmao, the way weāre going to be all over Sarah though will have you fuming]
Ray: [I might have to give you a boy to pay slight attention to so you donāt murder Sarah with a blunt kitchen knife but thatās fine, we know theyāre around]
Joe: Go on then, whatās his name
Ray: Dan? Sam? Nah, Ben? š¤
Joe: Three letters and dull, relatable
Ray: maybe Iām projecting & itās something like Spider or Spike
Joe: thatāll be what he told you
Joe: meaning itās deffo biblical, John, Peter, Paul, a combo of the above
Ray: š¤ for JP even easier
Joe: you wish it was JD
Ray: Iād not waste no wishes on him
Joe: you donāt need to, youāre the only girl here got a date with Gerard and Frank in November
Ray: šøš¼āØā ļø
Ray: pure forgettable out here tonight but I wonāt
Joe: Sarah fancies Mikey ā ļø likes āem young and cute
Ray: Sarah donāt know what sheās on about
Joe: oi, donāt slag me off like that
Ray: I didnāt she is
Joe: if she likes speccy lads, she can give Fraze a go next š¤
Ray: & here I reckoned I was special for the š she keeps on giving me š
Joe: she giving you evils?
Ray: canāt be aimed @ BenSamDan unless sheās dead devvo heās older than 12
Joe: [go and tell her to stop staring like she was starting shit when she probably was not remotely lol]
Ray: [shamelessly not gonna hide how buzzing we are that you just got told off lol]
Joe: [poor girl probably gonna go cry and weāre just chilling on these tracks looking for shit people have dropped, any signs of blood, dead animals, the usual]
Ray: [soz that these two have other priorities and youāre not even on the list hun, bringing you a bottle or a cigarette or something to share with you as if we need a reason to come over and join you but also in thanks because Joseph keeps making her happy on this day]
Joe: [whichever it is weāre taking it and going harder than you remotely should need to at 12 and handing it back with a cheers sort of gesture]
Ray: [SUCH a grin in response because of course, and obviously going as hard back because weāre not Sarah in case anyone had any doubt, look away whoever this boy is, weāre not trying to impress you sir]
Joe: [the way we just ignore most people most of the time so weāre making no effort to involve you or leave you out honestly, picking up someoneās busted phone off these tracks and seeing if you can fuck your fingers up on the cracked screen of it all nonchalantly āseriously though, what Iāve heard, no one else here got ticketsā ācos defs be the talk of the town tonight]
Ray: [sheās the other way and hyper aware of everyone but does not want them to perceive her thanks so much, you know sheās gotta take that broken phone and try and do it too when we realise what heās trying to achieve here, a nod because you wouldāve heard that too obvs ānot as smart as youā in every possible way we mean that so sincerely]
Joe: [oh the be a girl, such fun, just putting your fingertips together after for a impromptu blood brothers moment which has clearly been done properly many times, smile back like tah ānone of āem could get to Belfast anyhowā like you two are so smart and mature compared to these other burnout kids]
Ray: [āmost of āemād be made up to get back homeā like theyāre that useless, gotta blast the mcr bops as if weāre doing it for yāall like weāll have our own gig cos none of us have tickets hehe but really doing it because weāve got Josephās hand and can shamelessly dance like thatās not a dangerous game]
Joe: [at least you have to mosh style dance, thereās no way you can be sexy about it, beyond enjoying the whole beating up to music thing, as many do]
Ray: [enjoy beating each other up and also take your chance to beat Sarah up via mosh pit vibes if she reappears from her crying]
Joe: [watch your back gurl]
Ray: [so we know the energy, is there anything you wanna make a specific note of before we move?]
Joe: [hmm, we probably know the tea, we can go to November now, or could do a lil stop in September when youāre separated and sad?]
Ray: [I think itād be fun to do a September pitstop]
Joe: [lesgo baby]
Ray: š¦š¦
Joe: thank god for the āļøāļøāļø
Joe: or I wouldnāt see shit at this oāclock
Ray: & thereās no chance of a ššš©ø signal working now
Joe: canāt be hanging about the babies school now, can I
Ray: nor can I
Joe: so where are you going
Ray: Where WE going?
Joe: theyāve been cracking down at [a shopping centre you might frequent at weekends like mallgoths] so probably not worth it
Ray: I can š Fraze & Bea I know they aināt @ the park
Joe: parkās good
Joe: especially if he aināt hanging about it
Ray: just loads of āļøāļøāļø like
Joe: not š¬š¬š¬
Ray: y? you run out?
Joe: yeah, long day
Ray: you can have mine
Ray: š¤š¤š¤
Joe: dead sweet still, sācomforting
Ray: Iāll be waiting on the swing to give you all the comfort you need
Joe: Well Lolita of you
Joe: donāt let [the local weirdo mentioned earlier] see you
Ray: got the uniform back on š§š¼šš¬š« properly kidnappable as is
Joe: you want me to hang back ātil the vans gone off with you then ā ļø
Ray: if itāll make you feel better
Joe: bit extreme to have you go missing just ācos I canāt š you
Ray: nah youād be allowed to pure miss me then
Joe: itās just so weird, none of you being in the same place
Ray: it feels wrong to me 2
Ray: I hate it
Joe: anything could happen
Ray: weāve gotta stop it
Joe: how
Ray: š¤š Iāll do anything though
Joe: you can keep an eye on the little ones but I canāt trust them to keep an eye on you
Ray: Iāll stay where you can š us
Joe: youāre gonna hate it here more, when you come
Ray: but weāll be together again when I do
Joe: thatās one thing
Joe: the only thing
Ray: [tell him every horrible thought youāve had about how you could and are willing to hurt yourself so youāre locked safe at home tomorrow sick from household poisons or injured and he doesnāt have to worry about you or all the ways he could so he can be the one who doesnāt have to go or the accidents you could get in via the busy road on the way home later so you could stay together, just blurting any and all of it out to see if itāll cheer him up slightly]
Joe: Such a sweet talker
Joe: guess who I bumped into break time
Ray: [The local weirdo] & youāre gonna bring him cut out the middle man?Ā
Joe: if only, aged out by first year
Joe: Sarah, the original one, that is
Ray: Howās she not aged out & whatās she doing not hanging about my school gates? must already be ššš„°š donāt make sense unless sheās taken with no need for a šÆ
Joe: š bet sheās missed you too
Joe: how often and completely she tortured herself was always her biggest appeal, like, ramped it up by getting a much more attractive bezzie to fuck with her self-esteem harder
Ray: š whatās her name seeing as sheās deffo next
Joe: All the same to you, though you keep carving it into trees sheāll deffo reconsider how much she hates herself, like ššš„°š

Joe: I didnāt think you liked it, not how I did
Ray: thatās why weāve gotta keep on talking
Ray: your head tells you bullshit I donāt
Joe: okay, so tell me that you did then

Joe: if youād have done that to Ben it wouldāve been very different
Joe: unless heās got a conscience and worked out youāre too young for him, but still

Joe: itāll be perfect for you
Joe: Iāve needed you for so long, but Iād have to force myself to live forever just to feel the guilt if I hurt you or made you sad with what I want, Iād never do it
Joe: youāre ready now, I know that

Joe: Iāve always wanted it to be you, you believe that, donāt you
Ray: in your head she had freckles
Ray: I remember
Joe: you know how often Iāve stood outside your room, so close to coming in and letting you see how much I love you in every way
Joe: how easy it would be
Ray: that easy for a reason
Joe: no one would know, no one sees us
Ray: youāre the only person I want to see me
Ray: I donāt care if it hurts when you do
Joe: We should start using it to our benefit, how little they give a fuck
Joe: itās beyond obvious whatās going to happen with Fraze and Bea and they aināt doing a thing about that either
Joe: I want to keep you in my room, my bed, like you wanted, safe

Joe: if you bleed, you can make me bleed right back, always
Ray: I want to always
Joe: you know how I feel about blood
Ray: we have to get as much out of me as we can
Ray: the old
Ray: or it could ruin what youāre trying to do
Joe: being covered in your blood will be the happiest Iāve been so far
Joe: you can cry and puke and whatever else you want, I can push you to the edge and stop you from fallingĀ
Ray: if you killed me Iād find my way back
Ray: thereās too much I gotta be alive for
Joe: Iām gonna hurt you so carefully
Joe: itās not going to go wrong, itās going to be like ecstasy times a thousand, youāll beg me to keep going
Ray: it donāt go wrong when youāre in control of it nothing does
Joe: I need you to be alive as much as you need to be on the brink of death with me, youāre the only reason to pull back, to keep playingĀ
Ray: I swear Iāll be more alive than youāve ever š us be
Ray: youāre my same reason to bother
Joe: youāll understand, when you know how much pleasure comes with the fear and pain
Joe: I canāt tell you how wired I feel right now, to get to spend so much alone time with you tonight
Ray: I understand feeling fucking wired at least
Joe: when weāre at the concert, and youāre pressed into me, and I can put my hands wherever I want, and the music is all thatās in anyoneās head and beating through our chests
Ray: but til then what?
Ray: you canāt leave us counting down with nothing but the numbers behind my eyes
Joe: where are you right now
Ray: my bed
Joe: so stop holding back, find your school tie and tie it tight āround your throat
Ray: ššš
Ray: I donāt deserve how sharp you are
Joe: youāve got a chance to redeem yourself, where does your other hand need to be
Ray: wherever you say
Joe: oh baby ray, I donāt deserve you
Ray: Iām blank til you write somethingĀ
Ray: thereās nothing to deserve right now like
Joe: where does it hurt the most?
Ray: where it shouldnāt hurt
Ray: doesnāt wreck anyone else
Joe: do you want to wait for me to show you, how to make it all better
Ray: do you?
Joe: pull it tighter, thereās too much oxygen in your brain
Ray: alright, Iāll make the questions stop
Joe: when your vision starts going dark, let go, not before then
Joe: the numbers and questions will disappear with your breath
Ray: boss
Joe: good girl
Ray: if you donāt appear Iāll be a sad girl
Ray: the saddest
Joe: I donāt know if Iāll be able to hold back if I see you looking like that
Ray: hold onto the door frame
Joe: tie yourself to the other side of it
Joe: you need me that bad, prove it
Ray: Iāll do anything
Joe: itāll be like when we pulled out your tooth with the string and the door handle that time
Joe: but now, Iām going to make you pass out
Ray: I shouldāve given it to you instead of putting it under my pillow
Joe: Iām mad, actually, I want it back, bet they didnāt keep none though
Ray: @ the back where nobody elseāll know pick a new tooth & pull it out
Joe: Iām picking it with my tongueĀ
Joe: once Iāve felt every oneĀ
Ray: & youāve shown me what to do with mine
Joe: youāre good with it, you already know that about yourself
Joe: even passed out, youād react to me, you always have pushed yourself into me, instinctĀ
Ray: I want it to be like youāve š
Joe: youāre a dream sister
Joe: even if it went wrong, it would be exactly what I want, itās you, youāve given me everything I need by wanting me too
Ray: but if it went wrong again youād go back to hanging about with other girls
Ray: youād tell me Iām still not ready
Joe: I want to teach you, like I did riding your bike and tying your shoes
Joe: you need to realise how close I am to coming in there and fucking you because of how good you are at being my little sister
Joe: no other girl will ever be what you are to me
Ray: thatās exactly what I want
Joe: which part
Ray: the part where you say Iāve got 0 competition & mean it
Joe: I do and youāre gonna believe it after tonight
Ray: I do & tonight aināt happened yet
Joe: when I work in music, weāll get to go to every good gig, for free
Joe: you could write music reviews on your fancy laptop and theyād pay us to be there
Ray: serious š³ you reckon I could?Ā
Joe: Deffo
Joe: your opinion is always spot on and you just say it how it is, not loads of pretentious music wank
Ray: then weāre doing it
Joe: yeah?Ā
Ray: but youāve gotta read some of my diary first check ALL my opinions before Iām as bute as Bea
Joe: I wanna know what you write aboutĀ
Joe: if it matches how I š your š§ looking from the insideĀ
Ray: Iāll leave it in your bed for when we have to come back š under your pillow instead of my š¦·š¦·š¦·
Ray: reckon Iāve gorra keep at least a couple for your benefit š¦š§š¼āāļøšš·Ā
Joe: š¤šµš¤
Joe: can turn some of the š into š¼
Ray: long as thereās no direct quotes youāll have to sharpen what Iāve šš loads first
Joe: itāll be better than you reckon
Ray: you reckon Iām better than I am
Joe: you chat down on yourself, like I wouldnāt let no one else on you
Ray: why do you let us then?
Joe: it might make you feel better, I dunno
Joe: not going to judge your methodsĀ
Ray: you could get me to shut it dead easy & I trust yours
Joe: I could
Joe: if itās doing my head in more than itās doing owt to fix yours, I will
Ray: it wrecks more than it fixes mine š
Joe: now I know
Joe: š¤
