#i dont know maybe your other friends are nicer than I am and just didn't want to bring it up

hi! I was wondering if I could request headcanons for fanboy based off this prompt: "Just say it was an accident!" "You kissed me!"
(maybe he’s in a secret relationship with someone else in the navy?)
thanks sm!!
okay so the way i'm interpreting this is you and mickey are going to be platonic (because i may or may not be shipping him with payback here)- i hope that's alright!
y/f/n - your first name
y/c/s - your callsign
y/l/n - your last name
honestly you didn't know what you were thinking
actually scratch that you weren't thinking at all
you and mickey go way back, you two actually graduated in the same class at top gun together
and just so happened you both were recalled for some important assignment
you two caught up with each other when you arrived on base, surprisingly not that long after he got there and settled
and you both decided to meet up later at the hard deck around 19:00 once you were finished settling in
course, you happened to lose track of time getting ready and changing into your civvies and arrived a bit late
luckily he wasn't too hard to spot so you joined him and got introduced to everyone
"oh guys, y/f/n 'y/c/s' y/l/n, we were in the same class"
you just wave at everyone, lowkey regretting changing out of your uniform since you look so out of place now
but that's besides the point, you learned from the small amount of time you hung around everyone that:
hangman was a cocky, flirty, douche
coyote looked to be his best friend so you assumed they had a similar personality, but he did seem nicer
phoenix was definitely going to become one of your friends, you both had similar interests and personalities
bob was cute he seemed like the baby of the group
rooster well, there seemed to be a good reason for that callsign the way he just strutted in with confidence despite being way later than you, but he was kind
and last but not least payback, and it felt like he knew something but was withholding information at the time
after the introductions were through, rooster made his way to the piano to get ready to put on a show and you made your way to the bar to get another drink with mickey
and in the middle of ordering your drink, you were interrupted by another pilot, apparently recalled to top gun as well, going by the callsign yale and funnily enough he had a buddy named harvard tagging along with him
"hey there baby, how about i buy you a drink or two?"
you just smirk and roll your eyes slightly- apparently just because you're not in uniform all navy officers find you an immediate target for flirting
"ah no that's alright i-"
"aw come on, it won't hurt to get a free drink!"
at this point you realised this guy wasn't planning on giving up unless you had a good enough reason
so you just reference mickey and "actually my boyfriend, fanboy, is here so i'm good-"
he's so focused on the great balls of fire performance he doesn't even realise that you were leaning in to kiss his cheek until he turned his head and met your lips at the sound of his name-
at this point yale and harvard have moved on but you and mickey just jump back and you both cover your mouths almost like schoolchildren lmao
"why did you kiss me??"
"i was going to kiss your cheek to make those guys go away i didn't know you were going to suddenly turn your head!"
the small commotion you two are having rn draws paybacks attention lowkey and he's wondering what's going on
and mickey just pulls you in and whisper yells into your ear
"y/n, i didn't tell you this because it's supposed to be on the dl but i'm in a relationship with payback- what am i gonna say when he asks why you, my best friend, kissed me??"
and the realisation just dawns on you- that's why those two share those looks at each other, honestly it makes perfect sense now but that also gives you a moment of panic since you just met him and you've kissed his guy,, hopefully he didn't see it
and so you glance back and realise he is looking directly at you both and you just-
"fuck, i dont know- tell him it was an accident?"
poor fanboy honestly he just shrugs and throws his hands up
"me? you're the one who kissed me! why do i have to explain it-"
"well you're dating him so-"
and he just pulls you by the arm so you two can go relay the situation outside to him
to which payback literally laughs in your faces because the whole situation was so dumb
"you two were so stressed out over that? oh my god-"
the sigh of relief that come out of you and mickey when he says there's no hard feelings, a weight off everyone's shoulders tbh
and the three of you just continue your wild night of reunion and first meets

i understand intellectually that those "asking people for help is better for the other people than flailing and drowning and refusing to let people help you" posts are inherently true statements. but i struggle to actually hold to them in real life which i think is bc of my former best friend constantly refusing to do things for me that i did for her. not necessarily the whole time but definitely around the time she stopped referring to me as her friend and started referring to me as her roommate, which, telling i guess. i just remember there were one or two days when i was in university that she asked me to wake up at like 5 or 6 am and drive her to her job in fort worth or somewhere before i went to my full day of university classes and work. and i did. because how else would she get there. and then a couple months later i was having car problems and i asked her to, for one day, drop me off at the university before she went to work. didn't ask her to edit her schedule in a major way, was fine being dropped off at like 6 am hours before any of my classes would start. she had to drive like right past the school anyway. and she said no. because she didn't want to wake up like 20 minutes earlier to account for the minor detour. and i know i should just accept to myself the fact that she was a selfish person, or maybe the nicer fact that she was drawing a boundary of some kind that just seemed really cold and heartless at the time. and i know i should do nice things for people without expecting anything in return in the first place. but thats like one example of the myriad things she did that did sort of make me go well. i guess people arent willing to help you. even people you still autistically think are your best friend because they never told you they weren't. so i have a hard time asking for help not really because it makes me look stupid or anything but more because its a waste of time if people will say no and i have to find my own way anyway. the girl who lives in my building asked me to pick her up from the train station late one night which was fine but on the way back she was like "if you ever need me to come get you, just ask!" and i was like "okie :)" but i never have. because there's an overwhelming chance she will say no, in my mind. i know she's perfectly nice and logically there is no reason she would refuse if she was at home and available. but in my mind texting her to ask for it takes time and waiting for her response takes time and i dont want to stand around in the cold just for her to say no when i can powerwalk up the mountain in ten minutes. conversely i am decent at asking my family for help because i know that due to the laws of whatever sibling relationship they feel we have, my brother saying no to a request doesnt mean he's backing out of our siblingship. and my dad saying no to a request doesnt mean he is backing out of his fatherhood. those are not things you can just back out of, i guess, to me. but her saying no to me over and over about everything was the main indicator of her backing out of our friendship that i was too idiot (undiagnosed autistic) to realize. so i kept doing things for her when she asked and she kept refusing me when i was in need. anyway this has been an episode of Therapy With Myself, tune in next time for. how to drop people with no warning because you finally realized they are treating you badly and maybe you should get better at communicating why you are dropping someone to them before you do it.

i wanna hear more about your OCS if that's ok
anon i am kissing you directly on the mouth.
anyway, let’s talk about eigengrau and unfinished’s friendship! unfinished has an unlit (spawnproofed!) concrete box in the sky that’s basically, for all intents and purposes, eigengrau’s only form of proper housing?
(really, now that i think about it, what unfinished needs on alexcrafter’s pc is a command block to set the “world”, as it were, on peaceful, so that we needn’t bother with lighting or spawnproofing for hostile mobs, but that’s a diversion)
unfinished made a concrete box, managed to figure out how to consistently "summon" eigengrau, and since then has been bringing eigengrau furnishings for the box. on one occasion, he just brought the entire minecraft block into the box and had eigengrau pick out a bunch of stuff it wanted, as well as some stuff for the road! (so many gapples)
unfinished has been working on a way to make it so that an observer, or a camera of some kind, can kind of observe the pitch black so that eigengrau doesn't have to worldhop so much, or at all if it doesn't want to, but the color eigengrau is an eyeball phenomena, pretty organic thing.
so...unless we want to do some animal cruelty and keep a mob in a pitch black box with eigengrau (which might also not work, unless it was a sentient or hostile mob? (like the ones from the monster school episode) and unfinished's mob-wrangling skills are really bad anyway (if it wasn't clear from the whole 'hiding on a nerdpole of dirt from zombies thing')), or maybe develop a biomechanical eye (or import one from another game), we're not getting anywhere.
unfinished has just been testing it out any time he's had to end an eigengrau visit- worst-case scenario, nothing happens other than what was already going to happen. it's a little bit of unintentional angst, though, giving eigengrau that false hope. sad, that.
oh, yeah! i dont know if this was ever a question, but yes! eigengrau can understand english! its creator (haha, imagine loosing track of your stick a mere three months after creating it) gave it an innate sense of the language, much like how second could talk english at alan despite only existing for, like, one youtube video of length. (i dont remember how long that video was off the top of my head, sue me)
eigengrau hasn't ever really spoken english, and to be honest every instinct instilled within it since birth has been for it to be as quiet as humanly possible (btw, its movements dont make those whooshy noises the sticks do in canon) so its a stick of very few words, but it understands unfinished just fine!
anyway, in the meantime, unfinished has also been working on a sewing project. it's a bit difficult to take measurements of an extremely tall creature in pitch darkness, but he's made do. he can float. he's just making a nicer cloak, anyway, the one it has now is a little bit worn-down.
the meetings happen once a day, just about. sticks don't seem to need to sleep, so unfinished just heads into the box while alexcrafter is sleeping.
alexcrafter...may or may not...not? know? that eigengrau...exists?
unfinished never meant to keep that secret! it just...kind of...happened?
(unfinished will literally tell alex that he's going to the wedding of two wanted criminals (/lh. are they wanted, now that i think about it?) without supervision, which is an infinitely more tenuous topic, but not about this weird friend he's made. figures.)
(he's not doing it on purpose, i swear! don't read too deep into that, he honestly didn't mean to!)

Things I can't stop enough about in Daredevil Season 3
Matt questioning his faith
• His this conversation with Father Lantom
"I come to you with questions and you tell me what you understand about God"
"Nature of the gig, I guess"
"Let's give it a rest, shall we?"
•His conversations with Sister Mary
"I'd say things are complicated between you and the guy upstairs"
"Haaaha no, if anything I'd say we finally know where we stand with each other"
"I don't hate him. I've seen his true face that's all. I had a life, friends. And I am choosing to let them believe I am gone because I am" (because he finally, after all this years is seeing the Stick sees - agreed because of his angsr, guilt and hurt- but now he sees how having people by his side doing what he does can be weakness and yes Sister Mary calls Stick an indiot for telling him this but its a little too late)
which later continues when he asks Sister Mary if she knows how it feels one's calling to be taken away
"If you can't fulfil our calling, we might be better off as worm food, that's what you are saying? I'd find another purpose"
"Ah, if you can do anything else, it never was your calling"
"I prayed. I looked for signs. In the end, I just had to my best to figure it out" and Matt says God won't give guidance and Sister Mary says this
"Because you have seen his true face"
"I too believed I was God's soldier (just like Job) . Not any more. I am what I do in the dark now. I bleed only for myself." (reminds me of Season 2 Finale Monologue of Karen "Some people bloody the streets to protect it, some people bloody their fists to protect it
"In front of this God, I'd rather die as devil than live as Matt Murdock" - reminiscent of Season 1 "There is devil in the Murdock boys"
His conversation with the daughter whose father's  kidnapping attempt he foiled
"Thank God for you."
"He didn't help you. I did"
The Hallucinations in the show and their meaning
Matt's hallucinations of Fisk
The clothes his Fisk Hallucination wears and says are symbolic of Matt's guilt, Matt's wondering if he is indeed doing things the right way by sending him into prison, when he himself says- "the system is not meant to keep people like him. With that much money and power he manipulates the broken system", its the Catholic in him that hopes that Fisk has truly changed even though he doesn't believe it seen via his this conversation with Sister Mary
"Do you think people can change?"
"I am still holding out hope."
"I don't think we can. I think we come as we are. Maybe we get a bit nicer. A bit angrier. But we can't change the fundamental nature"
"Well if there's anything that can redeem a lost soul, love would have to top the list" and so he hears all this when he hallucinates Fisk.
"God restores your hearing in time to hear the crowd chant my name. Does that sound like forgiveness?"
"Maybe I can be valuable to city than you  ever were"
"Take me back to prison? But you know that's not going to work. There is only one way to stop me and you won't do it" "Are you sure about that?"
"In a way, you are my accomplice. Everything that happened since you refused to kill me is on you. The bodies I have stacked up. The ones to come. I wonder who's next."
Matt's hallucination of his Dad
In his normal, usual clothes - showing that the devil in them is a part of them. That they enjoying hitting and harming people. The power it gives them.
Dex's Hallucinations
Dex hallucinations mostly include Mercer's voice and that shows the impact she had on her, how he could live a semblance of a normal life before Fisk manipulated and ruined him.
Because of the impact she had on him, he was able to resist Fisk as long as he was.
His hallucinations - unlike Matthew's are solely auditory and voices more garbled and unclear showing his struggle and something beautifully shown in a sentence he said "I am drowning in deep water and I am pushing but I dont know if I am reaching for the surface or bottom"
Matt's anger - then and now (moving on from anger) as seen in conversation with Father Lantom
"Argumentation is a skill. Being argumentative is a sign. A sign that you are angry, Matthew. Perfectly understandable reaction to your situation but not a sustainable one - Father Lantom.
" Adam and Eve were not puppets and neither are we. God gave us freewill and that's why we pray, to help making good choices" - Father Lantom
"See its always the same, "please God" I thought God let me hear their prayers so I could answer. So that's what I did. I thought i heard God's voice through people but now  understand what I heard was voices of people in pain and all he ever gave any of us was silence. My delusion was thinking God had something to do with it. I don't get to choose who I am. I am daredevil. Not even God can stop that now" Matt Murdock
Matt not killing Fisk even when Fisk asks him to and instead saying
"God knows I want to but You don't get to destroy WHO I AM. You will go back to prison and live rest of your miserable life in a cage knowing you'll never have Vanessa, that this city rejected you. It beat you. I BEAT YOU! You'll keep my secret (as he removes mask to show that his doubts don't control him anymore and that Matt Murdock and Daredevil are one and the same) and you won't harm Karen Page or Foggy Nelson or anyone else. Because if you do, I'll go after your wife. And I will prove Vanessa ordered the murder of Agent Ray Nadeem and like her husband she will send the rest of her life in a cell"
I'd change that if I could. His last words - "Shame on you, Father" and Father Lantom's last words being "Father- Forgive us" for the mistakes he made as a mere mortal human.
and Sister Mary's response, "If God allowed that, there would be no future. Just people endlessly rewriting the past"
THE scene between Karen and Fisk
The tension. The music. (select quotes)
"A hammer? At that age? I wonder if there is any part of you that isn't broken"
The first beat of climax - when they refer each other with their first names ONLY.
"Since when were you aware of Mr Murdock' double life?"
"Thank you Miss Page, Thank you"
"You want secrets, Wilson? I think we know each other well to call that."
"As you wish, Karen"
THE Reveal
"The first twenty hour hours are the worst, aren't they?"
"What would affect you more? His duplicity or his death?"
"If you are wondering, didn't suffer much. You see Matt Murdock isn't whom you should be worried about. I killed Wesley. I shot him seven times. Because the clip ran out. He deserved more."
On abandoning and why (keep trying) to hold on
"Death will aways win. Eventually. Death when it comes naturally can be a beautiful event which is why one must never hasten it with violence" - Mercer ensuring Dex doesn't lose the faint light in him, which he definitely would have if she let him kill her.
"How he treats him is on him. If we turn our back on him, that's on us. People have been bailing on Matt his whole life, I will not be one of them" Foggy Nelson to Karen Page.
"When someone in need tries to push you away, you have to the find the strength to hold on tighter" Sister Maggie
"Everyone abandoned Matthew, including me" - Sister Maggie to Karen Page.
"Unlike everyone in your life, I will never abandon you" - Fisk to Dex
and because he knew Dex saw Mercer's death as her abandoning him, because he knew he sees Julie as his North Star and reached out to her for help and when he saw Julie wouldn't abandon him and gave him a chance instead - he ensured Dex felt abandoned by killing Julie but making him think that she abandoned him, is disgusted by who he is truly is.
How we see Dex was truly hurt to know Ray didn't have his back with the lawyer - when we know how hard Ray tried to save Dex from Fisk, from himself. How Dex mirroing his first moment of practicing empathy says to Ray says "
"This life never works with Betsy's" Matt to Melvin and Betsy later saying "I told Melvin, you and he were cut from the same cloth but he didn't listen and trusted you and called you a hero"
"How do you keep holding on to them?" "It's not me. It's them." - A conversation between Matt and Ray Nadeem
Ray Nadeem and Seema Nadeem
I have already written about Seema and her amazing character here
Ray. You can see his moral compass never had doubts (his morality was why Seema married him) - he was pushed into it just like Hattley said "Wilson has had you marked for years. Why do you think your sister-in-laws insurance was rejected?" but when Matt pushes why he did the right thing so late, why he hesitated Ray burts out and says "I didn't want my son to see me as an average federal employee" and when you throwback to the scene where Sami is telling how his friends have a bowling alley in garage and Ray tells they will get pool in house for the next summee - it makes sense.
Speaking of making sense, Hattley betraying Ray makes sense too- remember how she told about her father lying about the toxicity of chemicals he drove for long roads but that lie kept her calm and safe, how she encouraged that he do the same to Sami and Seema because she is doing the same to him when she says "Hold on to all the lives we will be saving. They matter. Just as much as the ones we lost" because she has to believe she is driving the van with least dangerous chemical even if she knows it is the most dangerous one.
Foggy Nelson
Foggy asking to be on a case to put Fisk behind bars, for free because you are under-resourced and I am over-resourced way way over-resourced. Acknowledges inequalitiy and jnequity in world but Again. Hope in world.
Foggy figuring out Fisk's plan to be the Kingpin for all the criminals in Newyork by giving them police protection.
Foggy deciding to quit elections when he knows he and his family can be used to be blackmailed.
How he never forgot that Matt was the one who inspired to do the good in him when he says "we began the firm to do good and get rich- get rich part was me and do good was Matt, of course" but now it is Foggy who reminds him that good can be done the right way, even if it takes longer and has to be done again and again.
Karen Page
"I don't need him to be a part of me anymore. And I don't want him to be"
"I dont believe yoou.I am not so sure if daredevil is the problem" - Karen's way of wondering if it is her that's the problem because she knows she has killed people- including her brother.
Her telling about her past to Matt and Matt only understanding her. Her telling her about it because she knows the impact it has on self when you take someone's life, even in self-defense how she doesn't want Matt to be ruined like that.
This conversation between Karen and her dad
(a person whom she has cut off in every way but reaches out in moment on vulnerability only to hear THIS"
"I tried to do the right thing but it went all wrong, dad"
" That's what you do, Karen"
(Please mister, do not act like you didn't push her parentification and make her be the parent by making her take responsibilities, by making her feel stuck so much that she had to give up opportunities she had because who would look after her younger brother with you clinging on to past and refusing to move on)
Wilson Fisk
So the devil is back and Fisk's reflection on the glass window over looking the city- showing he is the devil that lives and harms this city.
The smile he gave when he painted Daredevil as the new villian and later on him as the hero when he says "the justice in system ha prevailed" when he is declared as innocent.
"Love is the perfect prison. Inescapable. So, I will be in prison wherver I go" - how he knows he is defeated and won't be able to do anything to Matt or people he cares about because he cannot loose Vanessa.
Nelson, Murdock and Page
The show ending on a note of hope. A new beginning.
Season 1 Season 2

***
There had been an unspoken thing between you and Thomas from the first day you met. It was one of those right person, wrong time scenarios. Both of you were happily taken by other people, loving your partners, and leading healthy relationships. It simply hadn't been meant to be and both of you had gladly accepted it. Nothing had ever happened, despite the others insisting there must have, neither of you was like that. So you stayed friends with him, the same way you stayed friends with Victoria, Damiano, and Ethan and it didn't take long for the five of you to grow into a loving group, a chosen family. That was until both you and Thomas happened to have broken up with your respective partners within the same week. It was safe to say that it didn't take long for the meddling to start.
***
"I just think they'd make such a good couple!" Victoria said, pushing the empty beer bottles around on the table in annoyance. "They're basically made for each other."
"Leave it, Vic," Ethan said. The dark of the bar was hiding his features and the fact he was slightly rolling his eyes. "They both literally just got out of relationships, I don't think they're interested."
"But they both ended them so it's not like they've been broken up with," she insisted. "I'm sure they'll get over it quickly enough."
"Yeah I agree with Vic," Damiano added. "It's not like either of them seems all that heartbroken."
"Exactly, which is why we need to act now!"
"I still don't think it's a good idea," Ethan sighed. "Just let them figure it out on their own."
"But they're idiots! They'll never figure it out!"
Damiano couldn't help laugh out loud. He knew his friend was onto something, both Thomas and Y/n tended to be hilariously oblivious when it came to things like these.
"Maybe they just need a little push," he agreed.
"Fine." A deep sigh escaped Ethan. "But don't say I didn't warn you if it doesn't work out."
***
The moment you stepped into the vintage second-hand store you decided it was heaven on earth. It didn't take long for you to sweep through the place like a whirlwind, picking up pieces left and right, leaving Victoria and Thomas standing at the entrance still. You didn't care, this was one of your favourite places and you were not going to be held back because those two were slow. You tried on a dress that looked like an absolute mess on you and you quickly took a picture to laugh at later with the others, before trying on some trousers that you really took a liking to. You were still in them, trying to figure out if you had also grabbed a top that would match when someone knocked on the wood of the changing room. Confused and not certain if the noise was directed at you, you pulled back the curtain to come face to face with Thomas. He noticed you were in your bra before you did.
You raised your eyebrows, overly amused at how he was nervously looking around to figure out if anyone else would be able to see her, but no one seemed to be around. As he turned back, he tried not to let his gaze fall into her chest again, but failed miserably. You laughed heartily, "It's fine, stop blushing, Thomas."
He grinned, more relaxed not that he knew you didn't mind. He shouldn't, this being far from the first time he'd seen you like this.
"Vic told me to give you this dress to try on."
You looked at the piece of fabric he handed you, a gorgeous, velvety black, knee-high dress with a dangerous slit and a plunging neckline. It wasn't something you would have chosen yourself, but you trusted Vic's judgment. The curtain was quickly closed again, removing the trousers you had already decided on and slipped on the dress. It fell in a much nicer way than you had anticipated, easily smoothing itself over your curves and settling perfectly in place. The mirror agreed with your sentiment - you looked gorgeous. Okay, so this dress would do with a bit more makeup and without a bra, but it was a no-brainer that you were going to buy it.
You ripped open the curtain, now facing both of your friends. As soon as Vic saw you, she seemed as smitten with it as you were. Thomas looked stunned in his own way but stayed quiet.
"Fuck, I knew that was your dress!" Victoria shouted, obviously proud of herself for picking it out.
"Where am I ever going to wear this?" You asked, spinning to muster your reflection once again.
"When I take you out tomorrow night," Vic grinned. "There's a gorgeous new restaurant in town but it's fancy fancy, so this will do just fine."
You couldn't help but squint your eyes at her through the mirror. Her suggestion sounded just fine, but the way her eyes flickered made you feel like there was something more to the story.
***
"Wait, so how will you going out with her to dinner help, exactly?"
"Oh, Damiano, stop being so dumb. Obviously, I won't go."
"I don't get it."
"I'll have some sort of last-minute emergency, and since both of you will be out of the house, Thomas will have to step in."
Ethan sighed, shaking his head at his friend's plan.
"Why do you have to meddle so much, Vic?"
"Because those two don't get it. But once they see each other all dressed up, romantic dinner, candles, good wine, it'll click."
"Whatever you say."
***
"Oh my god, Y/n, I'm so sorry!" Victoria burst into your room, Chili cradled in her arms and an apologetic look on her face. "I know we said we'd go to that fancy restaurant tonight, but Chili's been coughing and the vet told me to come in immediately."
You side-eyed the little white dog, looking as happy as can be, but there was no reason for you not to trust Victoria. Right? You briefly petted Chili's head.
"Don't worry about it, we can always go some other time."
"No!" Her outburst surprised you. "I mean, it's so difficult to get a reservation there and you should wear your dress out. Damiano and Ethan are out, but I'm pretty sure Thomas is free, please ask him, he'd probably love to go with you!"
You wanted to scold Victoria, tell her this wasn't happening, tell her you'd be fine just staying home, but she didn't give you a chance to do any of it. Instead, she left your room, immediately shouting for her bandmate. It was the reason you found yourself at a candlelit dinner with the blond man mere hours later.
"You look amazing, by the way," Thomas said. Well, he actually kind of mumbled it into his pasta rather than proudly state it. You felt like blushing.
"So do you, love. But you know I love you in a suit."
Your eyes met, just for a moment, before both of you found yourselves awkwardly staring back at your plates again. You didn't know why you were behaving like this, or why he was, you could only attribute it to the fact that this felt like an overly romantic date and the waiter had referred to you as his girlfriend multiple times already. Neither of you had corrected him. You hadn't minded the single rose that had been placed between you on the table, accompanied by a little wink and a smile by the waiter.
"You know, you make a lousy boyfriend, not even bringing me flowers for our date, " you teased, watching as a shy smile appeared on Thomas' face, his eyes travelling down the table for a second before looking at you again with more than a twinkle.
"I did take you to the nicest restaurant in town, surely that gets me some points?"
The giggle bubbled over your lips easily. Everything came easy with Thomas. He made the troubles disappear with one look, one touch of a hand, a single word, a gesture, his existence. He was your own personal cure to everything.
***
"No, I'm telling you, it worked," Victoria excitedly gasped and she gathered in the kitchen with Damiano and Ethan, trying to stay as inconspicuous as possible. "You should have seen them when they came back!"
"Did you actually wait up for them?" Ethan asked, slightly disbelieving, slightly amused.
"Well, they didn't know obviously! I just cracked my bedroom door open a bit. But they were all giggly and happy and they hugged when they said goodnight!"
"Vic, we all hug all the time," Damiano threw in.
"Not the way they did. I'm serious, this is working and you'll see soon enough!"
"So what's the next idea then?"
"I'm... I'm not quite sure," she admitted. "But I'll figure it out and it'll be perfect."
***
The thunderstorm hadn't been predicted by any of the weather channels. You found yourself standing in front of the patio doors with Thomas, watching the heavy rain disturb the surface or the pool, trees swaying in the wind, a flash of light illuminating the garden in regular intervals. It had only been the two of you home when it had started, everyone else out to meet friends or sitting in a bar with a drink in their hand. You had been having a lazy day, unwilling to leave the house at all, while Thomas had slept for so long no one had bothered trying to wake him so he could join in on plans.
"Do you want to compare our favourite records?"
You had been so focused on the happenings outside of the glass that you almost flinched in surprise at his question. Still, a slight smile, the right kind of look, and you were nodding enthusiastically. Hasting up the stairs, barefoot and in nothing but shorts and the shirt you usually slept in, you went through the little collection you had brought to the summer house, already hearing the first notes of Led Zeppelin's Black Dog echoing downstairs. With a smile on your face, you grabbed a few records and bolted back down to Thomas.
"I still prefer Led Zeppelin III," you giggled, only to be greeted with Thomas' shocked face. "Anything that has Immigrant Song on it is a hit, really."
"Blasphemy! Nothing tops IV, and you clearly have no taste."
"You clearly have no taste considering you think anything Led Zeppelin has put out is better than Fleetwood Mac's Rumours." You barely waited for the first song of Thomas' album of choice to finish playing before interrupting it with the sound of Second Hand News.
It didn't take long for the conversation to get heated. Still, you kept playing your record in the background, effortlessly dodging his effort to change it, even though the whole thing had been his idea in the first place. He was still complaining, explaining, talking to a wall basically, as you danced around the living room, as the music flowed through you, singing along, thunder only happens when it's raining, as the weather outside did its worst.
"I just think it's much too sad, most of it," Thomas finally concluded.
"Doesn't that just make it so beautiful though?"
"No, it just makes me sad," he pouted.
"Maybe you just never listened to it the way you should. In the arms of someone you love."
A heartbeat passed as both of you looked at each other, but then your smile returned and you motioned for him to get on the sofa with you, lying on your side as he slowly but surely moved in front of you. Your arms wrapped around him, spooning him, making you feel safer than you ever have as Songbird played in quiet tones.
Your nose buried itself in his hair, letting his smell fill your every pore, taking over your whole being as you pressed into him, singing along in nothing but a whisper.
"And I love you, I love you, I love you, like never before."
***
"Guys, guys, guys, look at that!" Victoria called out to her friends as they quietly made their way into the house. "I knew it would be such a good idea to leave them alone in the house!"
"Vic, it's not like you made a thunderstorm come along, I'm pretty sure this was not your doing for once," Damiano whispered.
"Doesn't matter! Look at them spooning! We're on the right way, guys!"
"We're not on any way," Ethan threw in. "You keep trying to meddle and the two of them are going their own ways."
"They just need another push. I just gotta think of something."
***
"Hey, they let you feed the goats here!" Victoria squealed as everyone around her let out a groan. The zoo was bustling with people, the five friends surrounded by families, and Vic easily fell in line with the children's excitement.
"Vic, I really really don't like goats," you complained. "I'd rather not get their attention because I got food in my hands."
"Fine. How about you go see the owls over there with... Thomas, and I go feed some adorable goats with Ethan and Damiano?"
The both of you allowed yourselves to be pushed away easily, chuckles on your faces as you walked away from the rest of the group, dodging running toddlers as you went.
"So, this is a set-up, huh?" Thomas grinned next to you as his arm slid around your waist, pulling you closer.
"Oh, as if Victoria has been doing anything these past weeks without hidden intentions." You let yourself mold into Thomas' side, leaning in closer until your bodies were touching as much as physically possible. "She's not half as subtle about this as she thinks. I'm sure she's watching right now."
You didn't turn around, but you felt her eyes on the pair of you, watching your every move and trying to figure out what was going on between the two of you.
"Do you wanna give her a show?" You playfully pinched his site, looking at him from the corner of your eyes just to see a smile appear on his face that was surely mirroring yours. "Make out a little bit?"
"Wouldn't that give it away?" He stopped walking, now wrapping both of his arms around you as you leaned on his chest, looking up at him.
"I'm sure she'd still think it's just a first step in the right direction."
Not waiting for his response, your hand reached up to his face, slowly stroking along the soft skin of his cheek, thumb running over his lower lip as his smile grew, then reaching around, tangling them into his hair and pulling him down to you. His lips met yours in a sigh, warm and lovely, a tingling feeling spreading through you immediately, pressing yourself into him. You could feel his thumb stroking your back ever so slightly as he held you. He wanted more, slowly moving his lips, trying to deepen the kiss, but you pulled away. Close enough to still feel his breath on you, close enough that whispering would be enough.
"Now, we don't want Vic to figure it all out immediately," you grinned before putting more distance between the two of you. He groaned, making you giggle, before taking your hand and pulling you along.
"How much longer are you planning to keep this up?" Thomas asked, shaking his head, but still amused. "We've been together for two weeks."
"Pretty sure she already bought tickets for the cinema for me and her for Wednesday... which she'll inexplicably have no time for so you'll have to come along, obviously. I can give you a hickey in the dark theater, she'll freak."
Thomas laughed out loud, pressing a single kiss to the top of your head.
"Fine. One more date, that's it?"
"One more date."

11.30.21 | SENT MESSAGE.
Tumblr media
Little by little, I watch you drift away.
I wont stop you anymore and I will happily see you find the love you are looking for.
Your silence has been an answer to my wandering thoughts.
No plans, no efforts, no special days and reason for you to celebrate us.
Because In the first place, I was just your temporary comfort in this world full of expectations.
You already know from the 1st time you saw me that I wasn't the one you were looking for.
Yet you chose to stay, I can't stop thinking if it was maybe out of pity and out of guilt.
You kept me and slowly you've seen that I'm more than what you thought I am and made me your hidden safe place temporarily and to run away from reality.
Maybe you just couldn't admit that you loved who you were when you're with me, but still, I wasn't enough probably.
When our conversations started to become emotionless.
The passion and eagerness to do more slowly turns into doubts and discouragements.
When you see my words as a way to pick a fight rather than ways to make amends.
Venting my emotions to seek for assurance yet you called me desperate instead.
Asking me to groom myself because you're starting to lose interest and you don't find me worthy anymore.
Embarassed to show me to the world by the comparisons you endlessly made cause I ain't your type.
Not the woman you would want to held your head up and be proud to walk holding hands and side-by-side.
You don't appreciate the things that used to be special because they're also doing it to you now.
And despite all the troubles my heart is carrying, I chose to see the goodness in you.
Continuously praying, wishing and hoping that you get to live a better life.
Seek your purpose, find what you've always been looking for and succeed in life.
In exchange of not having you around anymore - I'd be happy to see you reach them all.
My Dear, Lovelove, Bumbum, Daddy.
I love you and thank you for coming into my life and making it so much better. For once I took the courage to fall in love, to not be scared, and for taking the risk and having faith for someone.
But sometimes, we dont always get what our heart wants. And maybe thats okay, not now, but someday.
I will always love you even from afar. Even if you don't, even if you won't be with me anymore. Our memories will forever be carved in my heart. And I will promise to live. Even it means, I have to do it all alone - again.
I don't think I can ever compete to them.
Because I have nothing to offer.
I will just be the same alice who would want to take care of you, serve you, make you happy, respect you and love you by all means.
And that's nothing special. They all can do it. Same way, maybe even better.
I'm just starting with life, honestly.
Everything that I have, my education, my freedom, the chance to live again, I worked hard for it all.
I have been through a lot in life.
Always thinking and doing things for others.
And the moment, I allowed myself to be happy was when I started dating you.
For the first time in my life, I didn't feel alone. 
I had a partner to share my thoughts with.
I had someone who trusted and invested in me. 
I had a bestfriend whom I wouldn't be afraid of showing my true self.
I miss you.
I won't go anywhere tho
I'm just here as your bestfriend and business partner.
I promise to be nicer and be that someone to support you and listen to your stories always.
I prolly will miss some of other things but surely we will be better off as friends.
So, we can be just like how we used to be.
No fights. No nagging. No jealousy. No arguments. No forcing to meet and talk. No begging and no desperate things to do and say.
I will try my best to set aside my emotions and feelings.
I will stop loving you then maybe i can become a better friend.
I'm willing to do this just as long as You promise me to be happy and you promise me that the woman you replace me with - will love and take good care of you properly. Then, I will be happy.

Married 8.
Warnings: domestic henry, a kiss, mention of the word whore, probably a curse word or two
Featuring: Henry Cavill, Sebastian Stan, Robbie Amell.
Part 7:
/
It was already dark by this point
she would always sing in the car to new music that only she listened to everyone hated that she liked every single new song on the radio however they adored their best friend so it didn't bother them that she would sing loudly on road trips, it wasn't new to them it was traditional except for tonight, she sang nothing and looked out the window Henry tried to get her talking every once and awhile but it didn't work.
"Wait in the car for me, I'll be back" he said, he walked up to his front door unlocking it and slipping in quickly
Henry's such a good man, I wish I could have someone like him you know someone who takes care of me like he does, thinks about me..when nobody else does she sat there thinking of all the things that could've happened tonight- not one thing she wanted happened, he didn't stop the wedding she didn't stop the wedding he said he loves her but never continued to say anything else
Only 20 minutes later he had walked out in different clothes "oh comfy" she smiled sadly at his warm comfy clothes "its not like you don't own most of my clothes at your place" he said getting into the car she smiled devilishly "you know I can always buy you your own, oh and also I'm missing a certain sweater and if I find it in your closet I'm taking it back"
"Rude" she said rolling her eyes "it's not rude it's my sweater" he rolled his eyes putting the keys into the ignition the seatbelt noise and lights turning on
"Is it the white one with the buttons" she admitted he started the car with a laugh "yeah" he looked at her "oh you can have that back I don't even wear it" " I'm taking back the clothes I like" "you're not" "I am" he backed out of his driveway and drove off onto the road to her house
"Okay fine but there is two pieces you absolutely cannot have"
"Which are?" He said looking at from the corner of his eye "the navy blue sweater with the white letters of the sleeves, that's the sweater you put me in when I stayed at your house... that one night" she trailed off he knew and put his hand on her hand for reassurance "and that grey t shirt it's so comfy and big smells like you" none of the words on the clothing would come into her mind "you took that out of my drawer you thief!" he said "it's no big deal I'll buy you a new one!" She explained she loved arguing with Henry like this, it was just a lot of teasing it never went further than teasing ever.
"I'll be looking forward to it" he laughed and so did he adored their playful arguments about literally nothing it felt so pure to him knowing that he still had that friend, that one friend who you could talk about anything with smile with laugh with, she has always taken my side and I've taken hers.
Sebastian was worrying as soon as he walked into that front door, everything came crumbling down.
"Mom" sebastian yelled his mother coming down the stairs quickly hearing her son's voice "baby" she put her hands on his face "I messed up I really messed up ma and I don't know how to fix it" he paced she hugged her boy he hugged her back "I'm gonna lose y/n I'm gonna lose her cause I made too many mistakes that aren't fixable" he was so worn out at this by time he wanted nothing more than to just perish, nothing felt real.
"sit down, you can always fix things between you and y/n just tell her everything the truth the real truth." she sympathizes with him he sat down on her and his "father's" couch "where's tripp" he was so done with this day he rubbed his forehead cold metal on his skin he looked up the wedding ban still on his finger he pulled it off and threw it across the room it hitting the wall falling behind the TV.
"He's asleep he was so angry at her he couldn't contain it, cheating on you like that? He's is very protective over his kids seeing her hurt you like that drove him crazy"
"Tripp doesn't care you're just saying that to make me feel better" sebastian folded his arms over chest looking at the TV screen which played some kind of cooking show it was quiet "your father loves you sebastian, can you just not be a jerk for 10 seconds and maybe you will realize that all the people in your life love you and care about you." His mother was right and he knew she was right it was just his anger and his frustration would always come out at the wrong times.
"Is rose okay?" His mother nodded "she had a talk with faith and she reassured her that you were okay" he laughed.. the sound draining quickly
"Do you remember what grandpa said before he passed" she laid her head on her sons shoulder he gave her a questioning look "Something Broken Can Always Be Fixed" she looked at a frame picture of her father and sebastian on the wall a few months before he got sick, sebastian opened his jacket pocket feeling the silver ring she gave him he pulled it out looking at it twirling it in his finger "she gave this to me a few days before the wedding, she said she needed to give me it now because the wedding was going to be too hectic to actually see my reaction" he swallowed thinking about a more simpler time, and then he remembered the argument in his driveway and that... that was the worst day for him.
"Grandpa gave it to her to give to me when I needed it the "most".. now I know why she gave it to me so early" he looked at the engraved writing inside of the ring, "how did he know to give it to her?" His mother asked "She's been in my life forever he knew she was someone to keep forever"
Henry put down his bag on her bedroom floor "what if I just call him to see if hes okay?" She was still thinking about it, I mean he did confess his love for her.. she should talk to him at least for a minute right?
" but after everything he's done you still want to check on him?" she stared at him "what if he needs me" "you both will live with it, you both need a breather from each other I promise it's for the better" he looked for her remote throwing it at her she turned on the TV, the news was on it was 11pm on a Sunday, the streets were somewhat quiet..
He sat next to her on her bed she laughed at him whilst he stared at her studying her facial features, he always admired her.
she pulls the hair tie out of her hair fixing it on her wrist, looking at him from the corner of her eye "what?" She finally broke the silence
"You know, I always thought you were gorgeous" she smiled "oh come on" she put her hand on his shoulder
"When we were nineteen I considered asking you out and I chickened out!" He said both of them laid on the pillows watching some show
"Nineteen year old me was a hoe" she said with a laugh "nineteen year old you was hot" he half smiled she pushed his arm lightly
"nineteen year old me would've so fucked nineteen year old Henry, we were very fuckable than" she smirked "yeah twenty five year old y/n and Henry are very fuckable dont underestimate us" he filrted, he got up looking in her closet she blushed lightly
"After all these years you still make me blush" she threw a pillow at his backside which he caught and threw it back at her "I'm very charming what could I say" he laughed but it was muffled her clothing in the closet making it seem quieter.
"Where the hell is my white sweater?" he said inside of the closet looking "the last article on the right side should be it" she focused on his back and butt "I am not a sexual object you can objectify" he looked over his shoulder at her with a fake frown she laughed very loudly covering her face in embarrassment he turned to her "I'm kidding" he pulled the sweater out onto her bed "I thought this was nicer? How long have you had it"
"A few months I thought it was comfy but it was just itchy" she laughed
"We should eat?" He suggested
A phone call ruined the mood definitely. It was Henry's and it was Sebastian
"Hello" he answered the phone putting it on speaker.
"Are you with her?" Seb asked he looked up at her for an answer she quickly nodded no
"No I'm alone what's up" He acted like he was concerned when in reality he wasn't.
"I think I need to see her just explain everything really get to the bottom of it?" He sat next to her she looked at Henry, Henry looked at her gave no real answer
"I think you should do whatever you feel is right" Henry said, he wanted them to mend their relationship but he knew sebastian wasn't going to do that properly.
"Is it too soon?" He was curious
"No do it because you want to not because you have to" Henry wanted to get mad and just scream and tell him to wrap it up were adults!
" if I just give it time??"
"How long is she suppose to wait for you?"
Sebastian had no answer on the other side
"Don't call her than it's that simple" he looked at y/n for reassurance she had no reaction
"Henry, I didn't know how I felt about her until the night of the argument it really got my gears turning that I was making a mistake I didn't feel like myself"
"Seb you haven't been yourself since Alex walked into the party on the roof, it's a completely different person you have turned into, you know that y/n told you" he looked at y/n and she mouthed "he knows he just wants to hear you say it" she said to Henry In a small whisper
"I know I just wanted to hear you say it" Henry gave her these eyes like how did you know "I know him" she mouthed no words coming out of her mouth
"Henry I didn't call for you to be angry"
"She said it, I absolutely couldn't care less if you get together or not"
"She doesn't want to talk to me.." he was bummed, and tired I think sebastian needed to sleep for the next week and think about what he did "she wants to talk to you beileve me just not tonight call her tomorrow and work it out alright" Henry said
they hung up and Henry gave her a weird look
"why did you want me to do that?"
"I don't want to suffer anymore if he wants me if can call me I can't do it.." she said he turned to face her getting closer to her "you're a good women, my best friend you deserve someone who will take care of you" she pulled him towards her face her kissing him he kissed back lightly a small smile creeped onto his face "what was that" he asked "I wanted to see what it would be like, was you okay with it" she was a little afraid thinking she overstepped
"I liked it" he tried to contain his self from giggling it was just funny to him, that they kissed and it didn't certainly mean much to the both of them... or so they thought. she got up grabbed her phone off the living room coffee table
"Okay I'm not watching a chick flick" he insisted coming behind her resting his chin on the nuk of her shoulder
"You love my chick flicks cavill, romance is the key" she looked to the side of her to see his face
"Fine I choose the food" he grabbed the phone out of her hand "hey" she got offended "I don't want Chinese or thai food" "you're making me sad"
"You get a chick flick, I get those tacos from down the street"
"You always complain their bad?" She looked for her jacket
"Yeah? Your point is?" He said she laughed shaking her head, never mind she thought.
"Or I get a chick flick and we go get both" she dangled her keys in his face he grabbed them "okay"
"Why" she whined
"Because you're a horrible driver"
"You just keep offending me?"
"I guess it's in my nature" he laughed kissing her cheek she was fluttered by butterflies in her stomach, she liked the way Henry made her feel.
"Should I change my shorts it's cold" she said
"Change I'll wait for you"
"Thanks" she went back into her room to change her shorts when all of sudden she realized.... I kissed Henry?
He watched her walk back into her room his brain exploded with questions... I kissed y/n?
He bit his lip knowing that she wanted that she wanted him, it was crazy for him to ever think she wanted him in that kinda way, he didn't just like the kiss he loved it.
When they got into the car it was quiet but a comfortable quiet a very bearable nice quiet being in the company of someone you would do anything for was a good feeling.
"Are we just not gonna talk about you kissing me earlier" he tried to keep a straight face wanting to smirk so badly
"I just wanted to see what it was like that's all" it was kind of a lie, she wanted to feel something anything and she got it she felt butterflies
"Oh okay" he nodded at her, a red light appearing in front of them he looked to his right at her she looked at him "can you stop staring at me" she let out a small laugh "you're beautiful I can't help it" he looked back at the road
They got to the thai place ordering, they waited when a familiar face they had just seen a few hours ago appear, Robbie.
"Robbie??" Henry called out to the man sitting by himself, he held y/n's hand his protective side coming out strongly
"Henry y/n" robbie said he was still in his suit no tie on his dress shirt unbuttoned hair was tousled he looked like a wreck
"Hows it going y/n after everything?" Robbie knew feelings for sebastian
"Okay I guess, what happened?" She asked, Henry felt sympathy for the guy all he wanted was the girl he loved and got put into a lot of other shit. And so did she "Well after you all left, sebastian's father yelled at me for ruining his son's "marriage" and taking away the one good thing sebastian had in his life" robbie air quotes marriage because it wasn't a real marriage and they both knew it "and then Alex came and told me to eat shit and screamed at me for the first time in 4 years that was fun, and now am here eating thai food alone at almost 1am" he was so frustrated
"hey go get the food" Henry whispered to y/n and that's what she did
"Listen robbie what you did today was a bold and brave move, you had more guts than any one of us since the past 5 months I know things are probably really shit right now but I promise everything will fall into place" he put his hand on his shoulder a comforting hand robbie gave a comforting smile "I did this all for her, and i get nothing out of it" he said the women with his order ready to hand it to him, "I know everything's gonna be alright" he patted his shoulder once again and regrouped with y/n "thanks for the talk Henry you're not so bad" robbie tried to joke around Henry laughed "yeah people tell me that" he held y/n's hand out the door
"What you did was really nice of you"
"What?"
"I heard you"
"Yeah I just felt bad for the guy"
"Me to, but I guess me and robbie are going through it together huh?" Henry smiled sadly and hung his arm around her "we're gonna get through it okay?" She nodded they got into the car and drove to their next destination, remotely "bad" tacos as Henry says.

Senior Year: Chapter 2
Chapter 2
"How many times do you think she's going to flip her weave?" I asked Kiara. We were walking to class "with" Tyler and the she-devil. They were ahead of us in their own little world of weave flipping and exaggerated facial expressions.
"Maybe 50 most likely 30 if we're lucky." We both rolled our eyes.
"How long have you liked Tyler?" Kiara asked.
"Hahaha cute. Since......never!" I laughed. " What would make you think that?"
"Um, the way you look at him like he's the last piece of cheesecake in the world. The way you look at Mariah like she's the one who took the last piece of cheesecake."
"I do not! That's not jealousy! That's pure hatred! You need to get your eyes checked." I scoffed.
"Don't you dare lie! I know you do! You hate Mariah 98% because she's a terrible person, and 2% because she's with Tyler and you wish it was you!"
"Um, not true. What is true is that I do like Tyler as a FRIEND, a BROTHER! I don't like that she's with him because he deserves better. Isn't that obvious?"
"That you like him, yes.To people that know you, yes. To people who don't know you, yes."
"I dont know what you're talking about but I do have a class to go to."
"Don't pretend like you don't know. You know you like him."
"I DO NOT LIKE HIM!!!!!!!!!" I shouted. A couple people turned around, luckily Tyler and Mariah were still in their own world.
"See what you do?"
"No. You're in denial, you're in denial!"
"Nope!!!!!"
"Whatever."
"Whatever."
"I'm not even giving up until you admit it."
"Guess you'll spend the rest of your life doing this, then. As much as I'd like to further debate the matter I have a class good day now!" I said running into the class just as the bell rang.
"YOU'LL ADMIT IT EVENTUALLY!!!!"
"NOPE!!!" I yelled back. I made my way to my seat. And unfortunately looked up just in time to watch as Tyler and Mariah kiss. Yuck. He walked in and sat down next to me.
"Hey budddddyyyyy." He said.
"Hi."
"Wow please contain your enthusiasm, it's getting to be too much!"
"I'm in math class, I have no enthusiasm."
"Well then, Ms. RayOfSunshine!"
"I feel like you want something from me....."
"Indeed I do. I'm in some serious shit."
"Aren't you always?"
"That's beside the point. Anyway, Mariah is expecting an amazing date tonight and I have no idea what the hell I'm going to do." He said. I had to fight the urge to roll my eyes. I REALLY can't stand her.
"Give her an amazing date? I don't know what you want from me."
"Please please help meeeeee. She will kill me if it's not perfect! Come on you're a female, she's a female. You have to have some type of idea." He gave me his stupidly cute hopeful grin.
"Fine, what does she like? What did you do for your last date and did she like it?" I said sighing.
"We went shopping and she loved it and she likes shopping." Again I tried not to roll my eyes, of course she liked shopping, of course.
"Well where did you-"
"Attention Class! Take out your worksheets from last night we are going to go over them right now, please." Said our teacher Ms. Rosenstein. I went to go pull out my homework that I probably did completely wrong and when I looked up at my desk Tyler had passed me a note.
"Really Ty? Really? How desperate are you?"
"VERY!"
I rolled my eyes and scribbled on the paper.
where did you take her last time?
Some mall she wanted to go to. she mentioned some other mall today shore hills or something.
I read it then started to think. He's an idiot it's Short Hills Mall and super expensive.
How much money do you have? I wrote and passed it back.
I don't know enough I hope like 150. I Can borrow some from my brother
Borrow some from your brother take her to SHORT HILLS MALL then take her to one of their "casual restaurants" then BOOM you got a date. P.s.it's Hella expensive!!!!!!! :-)
I wrote and passed it back. Then turned my attention back to math. We we're doing some crazy x over y divide by the radical ridiculousness. Tyler tapped me
"Thank you I love you so much!" He whispered with his hand on my shoulder."
"I know you do. I am me afterall."
"Seriously thanks you're a lifesaver! You're amazing."
I smiled and said "You're not too bad yourself, Ty."
We went back to x over y divide by the radical crap.
_//////////////////////-
Thirty minutes later as soon as the bell rang guess who I saw? If you guessed phony and annoying weave flipper then you guessed right.
"Oh sweetie there you arrrrreeeee!" Her annoying PHONY high pitched voice screeched. I didn't even try to stop my eyes from rolling, I swear her voice make me want to stab my ears out.
"Hey baby. You're looking hot today." More like basic I thought. She really wasn't that cute. She was a couple inches shorter than Tyler who is 6'0. She had very light mocha brown skin. And her weave was dark brown at the roots and slowly turned blonde. I won't lie she was pretty but there wasn't much to her other than that.
"Oh thanks baby. How's my hair?"
"Great."
"Just great? I thought it was at least gorgeous."
"I hate to interrupt the love fest going on here but are we going to lunch or?" I said.
"Oh Jaleia, there you go again, still here. How about YOU walk away and we'll catch up, yeah?" Said Mariah.
"Yeah, I'm not in kindergarten so no need to talk to me like I am. I'll be at lunch. Bye Tyler. BYE Mariah." I said walking away. She makes sick. Like puke, vomit, and bodily fluids. I started walking to the cafeteria, I stopped at my locker. Once I got there I stood at the front of our table. Mariah and Tyler had already gotten there Mariah was sitting in my seat but I ignored her.
"Sup." Said Tyler who was the first to notice my presence.
"Hey Ty." I said. I cleared my throat and spoke in a loud voice.
"Attention table of mis amigos. My birthday is in one week shortly before the dance. This has been your warning."
"I think we all got the text reminder and other not subtle hints." Said Kiara.
"That means I'm doing my job and you will never forget my birthday!" I replied.
"That's cute that you have to remind your friends to remember your birthday. You'd think that they would care enough to remember, but I guess not." Said Mariah. She fake smiled at me.
I smiled back and said "That's cute that you think that you have friends or that they'd care about your birthday."
She glared at me and I have her my "bring it beeyotch" look. She looked at Tyler with puppy dog eyes and whined "she's being rude to me again, baby."
"I thought they taught people to stop whining in like kindergarten but I guess not." I said to Kiara.
"Jaleia that was so uncalled for, can we just be nice for once?" Said Tyler.
"I was telling the truth, number one. Number two, I didn't start anything. If you can't handle the heat stay out the kitchen." I said.
"Seriously!" Said Tyler.
"Watch it pretty boy" I said.
"So where's Jesse?" asked Robyn.
"He's writing said he got inspired and had to write it down right away." Said Tyler. Jesse was super musically  talented. He played five instruments, sang, wrote songs. He wants to work in the music business one day. I hadn't heard many of his songs but the ones I have heard were pretty deep. He likes to be alone when he writes, he even has special pens and notebooks for songs and he hardly lets anyone see them.
"Can't wait to hear it." Said Kiara. Mariah's face turned bitter for a moment.
"Well it's nice to get a break from people every once and a while" she said. She didn't like him because he was one of the only guys who weren't impressed by her looks. And didn't try to hide it.
"So when do we get our break from you?" Robyn asked.
Mariah laughed and said "You're so funny!"
"That wasn't a joke but okay." Robyn said. I started laughing. Mariah was glaring at me.
The bell rang and we all got up to leave.
"Bye peeps!" I said. We all split in different directions. Except for me and Tyler, we both had the same gym period.
"Can you try to be nicer Mariah she didn't feel like you like her?" He said.
That's because I don't.
"Yeah well I'm trying, sometimes she does not make it easy." I said.
"I know she is kinda over the top but she's really sweet when you get to know her,I promise."
I doubt that Tyler, I really do.
"I'll give her a chance, okay?"I said.
"Thanks."
"Whatever."

Later that night before I went to take a nap my phone vibrated.
I Looked at the screen.
Text From TylerBaeRules:
Great idea she loved it. Thanx :-)
Something panged in my chest as I read those words. I was glad it went well, I really was. I just wished that Tyler realized how terrible she really is and that he would be with someone else better. I don't know why she bugs me so much but she does. Everyone thinks it's because I'm in love with Tyler but that's not true at all. I've managed to get along with all of his past girlfriends. Sure I might be a little disappointed that Mariah takes up most of his time so we don't have time to hang out like we used to but its not because I'm in love with him. Its because he's my best friend and I kinda miss spending time with him. I sighed and flopped on my bed.
Text To TylerBaeRules:
