*any warmth that autumn still held, disappeared after Hallie left*

Why so salty f r i e n d? I’ve been nothing but kind and it’s not like I’m stealing her. Even though we never… technically broke up. If anything, you’re the bitch here.

*Hallie went to the bathroom and as soon as she picked up Maya went Off*

Do you need me to get you??? I can go over to the dimension right now and make an excuse or something. Hell maybe suggest a double date with you and Summer and Leaf an-

Okay calm down. Yes that sounds like a good idea but I can’t talk long. I already promised I’d give her back my number-

You What Now. I made you lose her number for a reason don’t give it to her???

Yeah yeah I know I’ll… I don’t know just come over quick, she can’t join us if you’re here and anyway I gotta go soon I left her with Summer.

Summer: Oh you two sure seem broken up to me. You probably deserved that punch.

Leaf: So how are you enjoying your dr-

Summer: You think you’re all high and mighty, but guess what? You’re not. Hallie is mine, and not for you to manipulate into giving you her number. Back off, bitch.

Christ you sound just like Elsie. It’s not like I’m a demon or something. I’m just someone who loved her girlfriend.

*moments later, Hallie came back around with her phone in her pocket. Before Autumn could say anything, she started talking*

Sorry I was gone a minute! Anyway, Maya’s in the dimension apparently and wanted me to tell Leaf. Are you two done cause if so she was thinking of a short double date or just a hang out y'know?

*summer didn’t listen to hallie. they couldn’t. They were too filled with rage. they would’ve stood up if they could. They cut off Hallie mid-sentence*

Summer: WELL THIS DEAMON USES THEY THEM PRONOUNS, BITCH. AND I DOUBT YOU HAVE THE CAPACITY TO LOVE ANYONE BUT YOURSELF, DESPITE THAT BEING THE HARDEST FEAT IMAGINABLE

*autumn was a little stunned but she smiled when Hallie came back which earned a very confused and angry look*

Wait….. Autumn I’m sorry what did you say to Summer?

…I didn’t say anything to them I may have implied-

No I’m sorry what?

Oh come on I wasn’t being serious

Mhm like how you weren’t being serious when you told me Colleen wasn’t actually that bad to me?

I didn’t say everythi-

Or like how you weren’t being serious when you started flirting with that one girl at the bar?

Babe-

Oh don’t babe me. I’m not your babe

CAN YOU BLAME ME? you haven’t brought this up before-

Haven’t I?

*Autumn glared at Hallie for the first time*

I always worried about you. I loved you. Isn’t that enough?

Not even a little. Y'know what? I’ve never said this before, but fuck you. We’re leaving. Maya’s outside. And fyi. I always had coverage for this place. I just didn’t want to be hurt by you.

*she pulled leaf up and moved to help summer with the wheelchair*

Leaf: Wait my shift isn’t- ah whatever mom won’t care

*as soon as they were outside, Summer burst into tears*

Summer: Shit, i’m sorry i’m sorry I didn’t mean to start anything, fuck, i should’ve kept my dumb mouth shut.

*Hallie wiped away and angry tear and kneeled in front of Summer’s wheelchair*

No. Don’t be sorry. I’ll explain why you Absolutely Shouldn’t Be Sorry when Maya gets here because believe me you did amazing.

*Maya rolls down the sidewalk in rollarskates and stops by crash hugging Hallie as soon as she turns around*

I WOULD’VE COME BY SOONER BUT MY SHIFT WASN’T OVER THANK GOD FOR KELLY SHE’S THE BEST OKAY SHE’S STILL INSIDE RIGHT? HI LEAF I LOVE YOU FIRE AUTUMN AND LETS GO.

*Maya points down the street and rolls slowish so that they can speedwalk/roll together*

*they nod and take a shaky breath*

Leaf: Hey Maya and yeah I plan on it

*while they speedwalk/roll, Hallie takes a few deep breaths and puts her hand on summer’s shoulder for comfort*

Okay so uh…. I never mentioned Autumn. Sorry about that. She sucked but I….. Never really admitted it. Y'know? Like, Colleen was terrible but at least she wasn’t magical. Autumn was suffocating and if it weren’t for Maya and Elsie I’d probably… Still be with her honestly. Maya made me lose her number and she hacked my phone to block all messages from Autumn’s number without her knowing.

*Maya did a two finger salute and rolled closer to Leaf*

So…. If it weren’t for you going off I would’ve given her my number and gotten stuck in that loop again. So…. Really…. You helped.

summer: I just… I just couldn’t control myself. I was so mad… and scared.

Leaf: If anything, you scared her

*Maya gets them to a bench and sits down. However with her rollarskates she ends up kinda falling a little on Leaf and steadies herself withs leaf’s arm. Hallie sits in front of Summer*

That’s alright. You did a good thing and I’m sorry you had to deal with her. I should’ve left as soon as I saw her but… didn’t wanna seem impolite to Leaf I guess.

*she takes a deep breath to keep some bigger tears at bay*

I love you so much okay? Whatever she said to you means nothing and wanna know what we’re gonna do? We’re gonna get ice cream and sit in some park if there’s one nearby and just chill. Or….. I don’t know I might need like…. A minute or two to cry. Maybe we could find a bathroom or something….

*summer just laughs through their tears and reaches out their arms for a hug*

Summer: … I love you so much

*she hugs tight and wipes a few of their tears away*

I love you too..

*Maya silently awes*

*Hallie groaned and turned over to smile at summer*

Hiiiiiiii. Mornin love

((FUCK WRONG PRONOUNS))

*summer just kinda,,, frowns at her.*

Summer: Hallie? Can I ask you to promise me something?

*she yawns and nods*

Are we having serious conversations early in the morn? Uh yeah whats the promise, chickpea?

Summer: …Can you promise to never intentionally hurt me?

*they fidget with their fingers, looking her dead in the eye*

*her face falls and she scoots a bit closer to summer to hold her hand*

I-I would never. I promise I…. I would never hurt you.

….is something up, love?

*summer sighs and squeezes her hand. They turn their head so that they’re looking at the ceiling*

Summer: Now I have a reason to be mad when you inevitably do…

*she sucks in a breath and squeezes her hand back*

I…. I promise no matter what I would never intentionally hurt you. Ever. If I ever did then you have permission to curse my name till the end of time.

*they begin to tear up*

Summer: Why do these stupid dreams have to be so real?

*she scoots a little closer and hums*

Hey hey… Do you wanna hug? I’m here for you.

*they squeeze her hand harder*

Summer: Stop, I know this isn’t real

*she takes a deep breath and shakes her head*

Nonono I’m here. I’m here right now and you’re awake and if you need proof then uh..

*she lightly kisses them and pulls away*

*they shake their head*

Summer: There’s… there’s no way to tell.

*they’re full-on crying now*

Summer: I’m sorry if this is real but I just… I just don’t know at this point

*she pulls them close and hums*

Hey hey that’s fine… umm….

*she thinks for a second*

…Wanna grab your wheelchair and go outside?

*they stare at her in shock*

Summer: Wait- you’re not going to keep trying to convince me?

*she scrunches her face and kinda shakes her head*

Mm no… I figure that would be pointless since… Well like you said, no way to tell and stuff…. Maybe a walk….. Stroll… Sorry….. Outside air would help?

*they smile and cry harder*

Summer: Yeah. Let’s go outside.

((let just say green has a ramp next to the stairs))

*she smiles and helps them out of bed*

Okay ima get changed uh…. Do you need help with.. that? I’m sorry I have no idea how to help.

*they laugh then wince*

Summer: I’m still in my t-shirt and jeans, so I think I’m okay. Just… help me into the wheelchair

*she blushes and awkwardly helps them before quickly changing into a green and white baseball tee and jeans*

Okay I haven’t actually done much outside the house…. Where you wanna go?

*they attempt to move themself on the wheelchair*

Summer: Maybe just around the block, Let’s go visit leaf!

*she spins and goes behind Summer*

Sounds chill! Can I hug you?

*they reach their hands out and nod*

Summer: Please?

*she gives them a warm hug and starts out the door*

Okay so if we were to find leaf would we go to the cool ramen place?

Summer: Yeah she should be working right now. No ramen for me, though, I couldn’t handle it.

*she nods and runs down the hallway and down the ramp that green probably definitely has*

Okay! We’ll just chat and catch up and stuff. If you’re overwhelmed at any point lemme know okay?

Summer: COOL COOL MAYBE SLOW DOWN A LITTLE PLEASE

*they grip the arm rests weakly*

*she slows down and backs up.*

.. Oh shit sorry bout that. I’ll go slower yeah.

*they laugh a little bit*

Summer: Thanks sorry that was too much for me

*a wild restless green apears! she is holding squish*

Green: Hello hallie, Summer, where are you two going?

*Hallie goes over to scritch Squish and makes cooing sounds*

Hmm we’re going out to see leaf and just chill.

*green nods*

Green: Just keep an eye on Summer okay? If they’re uncomfortable, take them away. Stress can make certain poison worse.

*Hallie smiles nervously and nods*

That’s the plan Ms! Also-

*she walks towards the door and waves to green*

Squish loves coffee but can’t have any cause it’s like cocain for the poor baby.

Green: This is a tea only house. If Squidh wants coffee he’ll have to go to a nearby cafe

*she grins and waits for summer to go through the door she opened for them*

The lazy little shit wouldn’t dare. Thanks Ms!!

*green waves and summer makes their way out of the door*

Green: have fun!

*she waves back and spins through the door*

Alright. Let us depart to leaf’s.

*they smile* Summer: Do you mind pushing me?

*she spins for a few seconds before going behind and taking the handles*

Not at all, chickpea. But I also have no idea which direction to go… It’s close right?

*they point down the sidewalk* Summer: it’s that way

alright!

*she basically nyooms down the street for the first few seconds before going back to a normal pace*

… Hey we should binge Avatar the last Airbender at some point

*they giggle*

Summer: is that a movie or something?

*they continue to point her in the right direction*

*she stops and takes a full 5 seconds just to gasp dramatically*

It’s a TV show!! It’s like… This ridiculously well written story about this world at war. Most of the people have element bending abilities and this one kid has all of them like….

*she takes a deep breath before putting on a fake serious voice*

Long ago, 4 nations lived in harmony, until the fire Nation attacked. Something something avatar save the world

*they think for a moment*

Summer: Elemental-based powers… like this dimension?

Huh… Yeah that never occurred to me but Exactly like this dimension. Huh. By the way is there anyone Without magic here?

Summer: hmm… not that I can think of. Maybe if someone had a disability or something? Not that it’s a bad thing, though.

*she nods in thought*

Huh. I can see why Bethy likes it here.

*they sadly smile*

Summer: She likes it here because winter is here

*they point*

Summer: That’s the restruant

*she sighs and nods*

True true.

*she Nyooms forward again*

*inside, leaf is working at the register*

Leaf: Hey hallie! Hey- SUMMER?! WHAT HAPPENED?!

*they call to the back*

Leaf: YO CRUNCHY ME CAN YOU TAKE MY SPOT AT THE REGISTER

*someone comes running up to the register with a loud sound of protest*

YOU’RE JUST… ALLERGIC TO MY NAME AREN’T YOU? FIINE LEAFY GREEN.

*a girl with fluffy red hair, bright green eyes, a slightly tanned face littered with freckles, and a yellow scarf and green hat comes running up the the register. She fixes her scarf and looks at the newcomers. When she sees Hallie her eyes widen and she stares at her. Hallie catches her eye and makes a small gasp*

…so… Hiya leaf uh How’s it hanging!

*Leaf leads them to an empty table*

Leaf: I’m good! I, uh, went on a date

*she takes off her apron, revealing her new leather jacket*

Leaf: What’s up with summer?

*Hallie kinda stumbles into her chair, still looking at autumn*

Uhuh cool… Wait.. *she looks back at autumn again* with who?

And uh summer… It’s a long story involving magic whatever and I think the wheelchair’s temporary.

Leaf: Maya…..

*she smiles and blush a little. She helps summer to the table. Summer seems to notice Hallie’s behavior*

*Hallie sneaks one last glance at autumn before relaxing a little and chuckling*

That’s where you got the jacket eh? Looks nice! Maya’s a cool kid. Also if you’re bad for her I won’t hesitate to burn down this establishment.

*she looks serious at the first part before giggling*

*a tiny flame appears in her hand*

Leaf: Did you forget? This place is fire-proof.

*she looks back at autumn again and sees she’s also looking at her*

….uh do you Frequently set this place on fire?

Leaf: … as a kid

*summer snorts*

*she giggles and tears her gaze from autumn*

…huh. well if you’re bad for her then I’ll…. Give you a stern talking to-

*The girl at the register (who I just introduced as autumn whoops) appears at the table with a notebook for orders*

Hiya! Uh I’m here for orders but I have to ask, you’re Hallie right? Remember me?

*Hallie jumps a little and smiles a little forced*

Oh yeah! How could I forget. Um… I didn’t know you lived in this dimension!

*summer raises an eyebrow*

Summer: Hey, how do you know hallie?

*Autumn puts her notepad in her pocket and smiles at Summer*

Oh she was my ex. We broke up what was it now…. Two years ago? Or y'know I wanted to stay together but I guess Hallie doesn’t have service for this dimension. I’m Autumn by the way!

*Hallie nods and avoids summer’s gaze*

Yep. She was an exchange student and just kinda stayed there a while.

Summer: Oh… Hello! I’m hallie’s current date mate. It’s nice to meet you!

*they weekly extend their hand to shake, successfully masking their immediate rage at autumn*

*she shakes her hand with a grip that’s a little too strong for comfort and smiles again*

Well nice to meet you Summer! Hallie’s a bit of a handful sometimes but a wonderful person non the less. I might sit with you guys actually. It’s Been a minute since I’ve talked with Hallie! That alright?

*she looks at Hallie who smiles and nods*

*they wince at how tight her grip on their hand is*

Summer: I Oh I Would Love For you To Join Us But Don’t You Need To Be Working?

*Leaf shifts uncomfortably*

*autumn somehow smiles even further and it definitely looks a little bit forced*

Oh. Well it’s no issue! Right Leaf?

*Hallie looks like she might actually combust*

*Summer shoots a glance at leaf. She gets the message*

Leaf: Well, we kinda need someone at the register, crunch. The line is building up your we’re the only two working right now.

*she huffs*

Okay that’s fair. Coulda sworn I saw Jamie here earlier though.

*Hallie let’s out a breath she didn’t know she was holding*

Anyway. Orders!

Leaf: Get me the spicy ramen. You know which one.

Summer: I’m not eating anything. Hallie?

Oh I think I know what she wants. Hallie?

Uhhhhhh… Chicken ramen and do you have bubble tea?

Summer: Acctually, Bubble tea sounds good.

*Autumn scribbles down the orders and shoots one last smile before going back to the register*

…isn’t this an order at the register place?

*leaf sighs*

Leaf: Yeah…

*summer takes hallie’s hand and squeezes it*

Hm. Well that’s autumn I guess. What an interesting suprise.

*she squeezes back*

Leaf: Sorry, I didn’t realize. If she makes you uncomfortable, you don’t have to stay.

*she fiddles with the collar of her jacket*

*she almost instantly perks up*

What? Oh no where’d you get that from. I’m just.. suprised y'know?

Leaf: Alright, just checking.

*summer evens their breathing*

Mhm. Anyway I gotta use the bathroom be right back.

*she gets up to leave*

*summer let’s go of Hallie’s hand*

Leaf: Alright. I’ll eat your food if i gets here while you’re gone

If you drink any of my tea I’m sending the contents of your register into a shredder

*once in the bathroom she sends a few texts to Maya and thinks about texting Elsie but decides against getting the already frequently angry girl worried for her. She takes a moment or two to collect herself before heading back*

*Leaf and summer chat while they wait for Hallie to get back*

Leaf: Dang. I was hoping i could sneak a sip while you were gone

*she smirks and points at the register*

That would not be a wise decision my dear Leaf.

*she sneaks a glance at autumn and relaxs when she sees she’s currently occupied*

So how’s Maya doing? Been a minute since I’ve hung out with her.

*Leaf blushes and smiles* Leaf: She’s really cool. She still works at the same place

*she wiggles her eyebrows*

Sooooo y'all are dating now correct? She knows the weirdest places in town next date you should ask her about “Earl’s tunes”. That place is some kinda magic to just chill at.

*leaf blushes harder*

Leaf: I mean we’ve only been on one date….. And sure, i’ll ask about that.

you’re redder than a stop sign and I can see whatever you guys have going on as a long lasting thing

*autumn comes by with the orders and Hallie immediately stiffens*

Sorry that took so long! Leaf’s order requires some weird peppers with weird names and I can never find them. Aaaalso my shift is nearly over so ya think when it’s done me and greenbean could catch up?

*she smiles sweetly and Hallie gives a forced smile back*

Mm maybe! Yep sounds cool mhm.

*summer forces a smile and Leaf shifts uncomfortably*

Summer: Oh yes that’d be greeeaaat!

*Autumn smiles and sets down the food before sitting down herself*

So! Summer right? You and Hallie! How long have you two been dating! Also did Hallie move here? Last I saw her she was living on campus with this weird cat

*Hallie might as well be a statue with her stiff she looks but still she takes a subtle deep breath and smiles*

Yeah I still have squish. Lil baby just keeps on going yknow?

*autumn squints*

Yeah he always drank my coffee when I was out of the room. Soft though.

*Summer takes Hallie’s hand and squeezes it a little before glaring at Autumn*

Summer: We’re three amazing months in

*she leans on the table and beams*

Aw cool! Me and Hallie were together two years. To the best of my knowledge it was her longest! Actually Hallie, I’m guessing you have coverage for this dimension now? Maybe we could text Again!

*Hallie manages to hide her sudden uncomfort, but squeezes summer’s hand in response*

Mmmmaybe!! Yeah uhuh sure maybe!

Summer: Oh definitely I’d totally be comfortable with that! Uh huh

Leaf: sO Uh we were just talking about Maya!

*Summer gives Leaf a thankful look*

*autumn barely hides a scowl*

Wait. Leafy, the Maya you’re dating lives in Hallie’s dimension? Ugh she’s so clingy. Good luck my friend

*Hallie kinda rolls her eyes*

Autumn and Maya weren’t friends. ANyway with Maya you will join a real weird friends circle so be prepared my guy!

*autumn definitely scowled that time*

Does Maya still hang out with Elsie? Elsie’s a bitch Leafy just a heads up. She punched me out at a party once

Summer: I would too

*Leaf shoots Summer a glare*

Summer: Ha ha, joke

*autumn gives a condescending smile and turns back*

Yeah I remember that… Wild night that we’re not talking about.

Fair. Anyway yeah that entire friends circle is just a big thing of mildly bad news. Tread lightly

Mhmmmm Anyway, Leaf, Maya’s birthday is in a month. Just a heads up

Leaf: Oh really? I need to get her something. What does she like?

*autumn mumbled*

Being a bitch…

SHe likes every punk band imaginable and water colours!

Leaf: You know what? Maya is a bitch and i like her so much.

*summer almost spits out their drink*

*Hallie almost snorts. is it possible for Autumn to look even more condescending? Absolutely*

Well good luck with that, friend.

Mhmm so Leaf-

Actually Li Li-

*Hallie cringes a little at the nickname*

Before I forget, could I get your number?

Uhh..

*Hallie pulls out her phone, more to check if Maya texted back than anything and sees she has seven unchecked messages from her*

Oh sorry Autumn I have something I gotta get one sec!

*she sends a few texts back and goes to make a call to Maya*

Summer: okay listen up bitch. Don’t talk about my friends that way, and you are not allowed to call my girlfriend cutsey pet names cause she’s not dating you anymore.

*leaf looks like she wants to disappear*

So this has been sitting in my phone for a while. It’s highschool AU pls enjoy

Winter hated biology with every ounce of her being, but she’d make an exception for Beth.

Winter would often watch Beth from across the classroom as she’d doodle something in her sketchbook and adorably stutter over an answer when she would get called on. She tapped her desk as the teacher called for Beth’s attention.

“Miss Rose.” Rose. What a beautiful last name.

“Yes?” And what a beautiful voice.

“Can you answer the question?” Winter prayed that maybe this time she could, just to hear her talk more.

“…no”

She sighed. Of course not. That was okay, though. maybe at some point she will get to hear her soft, perfect voice in complete sentences. Winter was absolutely obsessed with her.

But how the hell can you have a crush on someone you’ve never talked to?

Beth stared down at her phone that was hidden under the desk in biology. She was stalking one of her role models on Tumblr, Colder-than-Logan-Sanders, who also goes by Ice.

“Miss Rose?” The teacher called for the third time, tearing Beth’s attention away from her phone.

“yes?” She gulped

“Can you answer the question?”

“…No”

The class snickered, and the teacher moved onto a different student, but not without giving Beth the stink eye.

Beth returned to her phone. She scrolled through her Tumblr hero’s edits of Patton and Deceit sanders and multi shipping fan fictions. She’s seen her talk to other Tumblr famous blogs before, and from what she’s gathered, she was incredibly funny and adorable. Beth was absolutely obsessed with her.

But how the hell can you have a crush on someone you’ve never talked to?

The teacher cleared his throat and announced that he was going to pair the class up for group projects. There was a collective groan in the room. The teacher began listing names. Winter’s breath hitched.

“Alyssa and Ella” Winter tapped her desk.

“Leaf and Maya” Beth prayed to not get with a free loader.

“Darren and Seya” Winter’s heart raced faster.

“Tony and Kelly” Beth began to fiddle with the corner of her paper.

“Beth and Sarah” Winter used all she had to hold back a disappointed groan.

Beth looked around. Where was Sarah?

“Oh, I forgot,” The teacher spoke, sensing her confusion, “Sarah transferred out last week. Let me make some changes aaaaand…. Beth, you’ll be working with Winter.”

Winter almost fell out of he chair. She silently celebrated as the teacher continued to call out names.

At lunch, Bet approached Winter. “Hey, can I get your number? So we can work out times to work on the project.”

Winter choked down a scream. “Yeah! Sure. Here, you can put it in my phone, and I’ll text you.

Beth nodded, put her number in, and left. Winter made sure to text her first thing when she got home.

Winter: Hey, this is Winter. How do u feel abt meeting in library early tmr morning?

Beth: Hey winter. Yeah that sounds good.

Winter: See ya there.

Winter collapsed on her bed teenage-girl-in-love style holding her phone to her chest. She looked at it again when she received a notification on Tumblr. Someone was messaging her.

Im-a-Small-Lizard: Hey!! I just wanted to let u know that I’ve been admiring your work for a while and that i might have a lil but of a crush on you???

Winter covered her mouth and almost screamed. This was a blog that she had been looking up to for years.

Colder-than-Logan-Sanders: Omg!!! Small! I loveeee your art!!!! It’s so cool that you like my stuff!! And no one has rlly told me that they had a crush on me before lol.

Colder-Than-Logan-Sanders: But I already kinda have my eyes set on someone from my school. Sorry…

Beth groaned. Of course Ice had a life outside of Tumblr. What was she thinking?

Im-a-Small-Lizard: Oh no worries! I just have been thinking about it for a while and felt like I should tell u!

Colder-than-Logan-Sanders: You’re so brave for telling me, though. I could never do something like that.

They talked until midnight before Winter said that she had to go to sleep. Small reluctantly said goodbye.

That night, Winter fell asleep actually excited for the morning.

-

Beth was not looking forward to the morning. She had to work with some girl she didn’t know, and her crush just rejected and had a pity conversation with her. All she wanted to do was have a day to sulk, but she already promised Winter to meet in the school library in the morning.

She rolled over in her bed trying to fall asleep, but to no avail. She only got sleep two hours before her alarm clock rang for school.

Winter practically skipped into the library. She sat down at a table and took out her phone.

Winter: I’m sitting at the middle table. The one next to the manga books.

Beth: I’ll be there in a sec.

Winter smiled and instinctively went to Tumblr to wait for her.

Beth dragged her feet in, not wanting to be at school so early in the morning. She sat next to Winter and let out a quiet "hi”

Winter looked up from her phone, not wanting to seem too eager. “Oh hey,” she noticed the bags under he eyes, “you look tired”

Beth rubbed her eyes with her fingertips. “Yeah… some shit happened.”

Winter wanted to bring her into a hug and tell her that everything was going to be okay, but instead she looked down and liked a post in Tumblr. “Oh sorry about that.” She waited for a response. When she didn’t get one, she raised her head to face Beth. Her face was in shock.

“You use Tumblr… AND you like Thomas Sanders?”

Winter’s heart swelled. “You like Thomas Sanders too? That’s so cool!”

Beth smiled, causing winter to practically melt, “What’s your url? I want to follow you!”

“It’s kinda a play on my name. Colder-Than-Logan-Sanders.”

Beth froze mid-way pulling her phone from her pocket. “Ice?”

“Oh! You follow me? That’s so cool! What’s your url?”

Beth gulped, “Im-a-Small-Lizard”

Winter froze. A sudden surge of realization and guilt pierced her heart “You’re… the person I talked to last night. Oh no… I’m so sorry-”

“No, no, it’s fine. I get it, sometimes you like other people. Can I just… ask who you really do like?”

Winter fiddled with her phone, “Uhm… well…” She swallowed.

“Actually, forget I asked.” Beth said quickly, regretting her words, “You don’t have to tel-”

“You. I like you.” A weight lifted off of Winter’s shoulders. Half of the work was done.

“Oh… OH.” Beth’s cheeks took on a reddish tone that made Winter’s heart go into overdrive. She looked down and messed with her sleeve. “This is like some romantic comedy level shit.”

“Yeah,” Winter said, letting out an empty laugh.

There was moment of awkward silence.

“So… Work on the project?” Beth asked.

“Yes,” Winter agreed, a little too eagerly.

Somewhere, is the middle of awkwardly working, Winter blurted out something she never thought she’d have the courage to. “Do you want to come to my house tonight?”

Beth was a little surprised at the sudden question, but looked down and smiled. “Yeah,” she stuttered, “I’d like that.”

After that, the bell rang, sending them to 1st period.

*Leaf was feeling bored today, so she borrowed Winter’s bubble wand and burst into the Restaurant Maya works at. Or at least she thinks Maya works here. She’s only seen her once so…*

Leaf: YO IS MAYA HERE

smallanon

*a bored cashier with bad highlights trips on her rollarskates and falls into the table she was about to serve. Thankfully she wasn’t holding food but she did knock over all the salt. She stands up and rolls a bit in Leaf’s direction*

…. Please keep your voice down miss. Maya’s in the backroom why do you wanna talk to her?

*She laughs*

Leaf: Let’s just say… She’s given me her milkshake…. If you know what I mean

*She pauses*

Leaf: Seriously. She’s served my friends and I milkshakes before and she never called me back after I’ve given her my number, so I just wanna check up on her, y’know?

*The girl raises an eyebrow and sighs*

Yep. Yeah she’s mentioned you once or twice during break. Anyway she’s back there.

*she points to a bright blue door near the bathrooms*

*Leaf stumbles and blushes a little*

Leaf: Me? Talked about… Me? Good things I hope. People usually talk bad behind my back shit im oversharing again- Ok have a nice day!

*She quickly walks through the blue doors*

Leaf: Maya?

*as leads walks away the girl calls out*

OH believe Me it was Anything but bad

*the backroom is very crowded with shelves and Maya is the only one there. She’s holding up her bright blue phone and messing with her firey hair and green hair clips. When leaf comes in she damn near drops her phone and takes a second or two to respond*

OH MY…….hI…. You’re leaf. Hi… Hello!

*she sits down on a folding chair and takes an extra second to compose herself*

So… whatcha doin here? In the backroom I mean.

*Leaf blushes a little and just awkwardly stands there*

Leaf: Heey Maya! I uh, I was bored so I decided to come visit you… Since you never contacted me…

*she mutters the last part*

*she blushes and smiles at the first part and furrows her brows at the last*

Wait… I didn’t?

*she pulls up her phone and taps furiously*

I could’ve sworn…. Wait. Is your dimension local? God dangit I only have local dimensional data…. Cause I uh…. IDid send youuuu a Hey with extra Ys…

*she blushes a little*

Leaf: honestly, i have no idea what a local dimension is. I just assumed they were all far away from eachother.

*she tries, and fails, to hide her surrprise at the extra Ys*

Leaf: Well, uh, it’s a good thing i decided to see you again. Instead of just… forever assuming you weren’t interested

*she fusses with her hair which only makes it messier*

Oh yeah thanks for coming back! I uh was wondering why you didn’t respond… So…. oh shoot sorry I’m a uh little tired so im awkward and stuff…

*she kinda fakes a yawn

Leaf: oH am i bothering you? I could- I could just leave if you need me to. Maybe come back a different time.

*she awkwardly shifts her feet*

*she nearly trips over herself*

WHat oh nonono I’m fine really don’t go.

*she realizes how weird that sounded*

I mean.. unless you wanna leave? That’s fine but…. Uh we should hang out?

*leaf smiles a little and walks closer to her*

Leaf: Yeah… That’d be fun.

*Maya claps and smiles*

So…. There’s a cool block nearby with a bunch of locally owned clothes stores and stuff if youu wanna just walk down there?

*she nods and smiled*

Leaf: Sure! uh… just one question, though…

Hm? What’s that?

um.. the other waitress girl said that you talk about me… was it anything bad? It just kinda makes me nervous when people talk about me while i’m not there. It probably wasn’t anything bad cause we only met once and… Oh i’m rambling great.

*she looks suprised and waves away what leaf’s saying*

What? Nono it wasn’t bad it was good! Mostly me wondering why you didn’t text back and all..

*she smiles in relief*

Leaf: oh. ok good. I was worried for a second there. So… let’s go?

*she nods and goes over to open the door*

Yep!

*she happily walks through it and follows maya where ever she goes*

*Maya waves to the waitress who just rolls her eyes*

So my favorite store on that block is this one thrif store but whenever they get clothes they dye them to fit like a punk colorful whatever theme. And it’s all pretty cheap!

leaf: ooo nice. Not really my style, but i am intrigued

well I’m gonna buy you something whether you like it or not so

*she speed walks down the street and runs around a street light before continuing*

*leaf simply uses her incredibly long legs and takes long srides, walking right next to her*

Leaf: I may buy something. who knows.

hmmm well there’s this one jacket I wanted to buy but it didn’t really match me cause it was a darker shade than my usual, but I think it would look nice on you!

*she looks over her shoulder and blushes. She then realizes that leaf is waaaay taller than her*

….. You’re really tall… y'know when you’re not sitting down and I’m not sitting down… Like… Wow

*leaf laughs a little*

Leaf: Yeah, i’m six feet. You’re really short, though. It’s adorable.

*she pats the top of her head*

*Maya pouts and lightly swats at Leaf’s hands*

Heyyyyyy. I’m 5'1 I’m…. Tall compared to a lot of people! You’re just really flipping tall.

*she messes with her hair and tries fixing a hair pin*

Leaf: Well, i’m just a few inches over the average. You seem a few inches under, though. I know a short person when i see one

*she grumbles and tries to hide a smile*

Mmmm if we were surrounded by fifth graders you wouldn’t be saying that…which is a self burn but shuuuuush

*she pauses a second before grabbing leaf’s hand and running towards a store with a needle and thread on the sign. The store is called ‘color threads’ and the inside is indeed very colorful. Most of the clothes look punk ish without the black. Maya looks like she could blend in with the scenery*

*Leaf squeaks a little bit when she grabs her hand, but quickly gains composure. She laughs and runs in front of her, pulling her instead*

Leaf: I feel like all of your clothes come from here

oh only everything I wear in public. My comfy clothes are all college merch from places I don’t go to.

*she drags leaf towards some racks at the back of the store and pulls out a dark green leather jacket*

Try this on! If you want to I mean.

*she puts it on and spreads her arms*

Leaf: How do I look?

*she blushes and gives a shy thumbs up*

.. You look awesome. Uh… There’s a mirror around here somewhere if You wanna see how you look?

*she finds a mirror and looks into it*

Leaf: I like it, although most of my wardrobe is just sweaters, so i’ll maybe need to buy a few t-shirts or something to go with it

*Maya beams and runs down an aisle and comes back with 5 soft coloured green t-shirts*

These good?

*she laughs*

Leaf: maybe some other colors…. I really like purple, pastel to be specific. do they have that color here?

Look around you. There’s enough purple to rival every Barney.

*she giggles and runs down another aisle. she comes back with 5 different t-shirts of varying shades of light purple*

*she laughs harder and scoops up the shirts*

Leaf: These look nice. Do they have a dressing room here?

*she seems really excited and forgets to talk, instead nodding and dragging leaf by the elbow to a break in the wall with a bright blue curtain in front*

*leaf giggles and goes into the room and begins to change, but then remembers why she avoids t-shirts. She hesitantly walks out with her arms crossed over her chest*

Leaf: …do i look ok?

*she beams and nods vigorously*

aaAA!!!! Yes you look fantastic!! Put on the jacket you’ll look like….. A pastel green Danny… No not Danny zuko…. Uh just really cool!

Leaf: I… do?

*she puts on the jacket*

Leaf: No idea who Danny is… but sure!

Uh yeah! Like…. Biker gal? No not really uh..

*she puts the jacket on and Maya looks visibly shook™*

You look really good…. Holy shoot

*leaf blushes*

Leaf: Thanks… I’m not really used to wearing t shirts.

*she grins and hands leaf a blue necklace from a rack behind her*

Well ya look great

*she puts on the necklace and smiles*

Leaf: I… kinda like this style.

welllll the store is full and I brought extra money with me so if you wanna look for more stuff that’s cool!!

*she laughs a little*

Leaf: I think i’m good for now, thanks. I’ll just get the jacket and shirt. And i can pay for myself.

*she goes back in the room to change back *

*she nods and before leaf comes back she dashes down and aisle and is back with a yellow leather jacket and some green mermaid leggings for herself*

*leaf comes out ((heh gay)) and sees the mermaid leggings*

Leaf: Aw, those are so cute!

*she blushes and nods*

Thanks!! Kay let’s pay annnnd… I don’t know wanna just walk down this street and chill?

*she nods*

Leaf: Sure! Maybe we can get icecrem or something

! Heck yea!

*she pauses for a second*

So… This is a date right?

*leaf’s face goes completely red*

Leaf: Yeah! I mean- if you want to call it a date…

*she blushes and smiles*

Hmm yeah I do!

*she turns around and walks to the front counter*

Haven’t been on a date i enjoyed so much before. Most of them were awkward double dates with Hallie. so this is Extra awesome!

*she thinks*

Leaf: I’ve.. never been on any dates… Well unless you count kindergarten. I’m glad this is going so well!

really? But you’re cool and pretty and…

*she blushes and hands the cashier her stuff*

Anyway there’s this cool locally owned ice cream shop just down the corner!

*she blushes*

Leaf: I guess it was more of.. I was too insecure to date.

*after maya is done she checks out her own things*

Leaf: Sounds good!

hmm thats fair. You’re real cute though.

*she grabs her bag and walks with a bounce to the door*

*leaf follows behind her and smiles*

Leaf: You’re cuter though

*she spins around a street light*

Impossible

*she laughs*

Leaf: Definitely possible. Have you looked in a mirror? You’re adorable.

*she skips once and hums*

Mm I have. And I’m basically a baby chipmunk or somethin. But you’re cuter.

Leaf: Excuse me, but chipmunk are the cutest thing ever. So, by default, you are the cutest thing ever

Nope. You are the cutest thing ever. At best I'm second. And the store is coming up which means the conversation's over and I Wiiin!

Welp I’ve never found someone I’ve trusted more with my giant ball of shitty past than you so… and I should talk about this and you have definitely read my mind anyway so uh… Whatcha wanna know? It’ll get probably heavy… No it’ll definitely get heavy and I may cry but you know you’ll stay awake… you wanna know about Aiden or?

*they nod*

Summer: Yeah… how did you meet him?

Okay so this is a longish story and it’s also kinda funny and not that heavy so thanks for starting with it.

*she takes a deep breath and takes a second to think*

So…. It was a uh school basketball game and the home team was losing so I flung myself towards one of the players, I was in the front row and there was nothing in the way of the seats and the gym, I grabbed him by the shoulders and shoved him towards the ball and he ended up getting it and I think home team won the game? Eh it was forever ago. Anyway that guy was Aiden’s friend and we started talking.

….I could’ve just said we met at a game… Welp.

*they chuckle a little, then wince*

Summer: So you met Aidan through him?

*she smiles and squeezes their hand*

Yep. Actually his name’s Jordan and he’s really chill! We made it a thing to get coffee whenever we’re free but we kinda drifted y'know. He’s all sports and stuff. Still cool though. I think he’s deleted Aiden from all his social media and continues to do so even though that whole whatever ended Years ago.

Summer: so… what did Aidan do that makes him such an asshole?

*she laughs a bit*

Oh that’s a longer answer. Actually more of a 4 part book series. Well for one he cheated ridiculously. I was told about it a lot but I just kinda… Ignored it? Figured it wasn’t really my buisness I guess among other things. Also uh… Well I was 15 when we dated and he uh…. Well I got a bit of a …

*she takes a deep breath*

Well you see he lied and I got a pregnancy scare… Mom was out for blood and dad almost got a restraining order but I didn’t wanna get get off from the bookstore… stupid reason but… *shrugs*

*they take a deep breath*

Summer: …What. the fuck. No that’s.. that’s not ok. He-

*they find themselves at a loss of words*

Summer: fuck him. Do you have any decent exes so I don’t jump off of this couch in rage?

… Funny you should say that. Anyway don’t jump off the couch you’ll break something… Uh well the short answer is…. Well not to some standards? I uh… Don’t attract fantastic people…

*she fidgets with the sleeve of her sweater*

Aiden… I wasn’t the one to break up with him. He broke up with me and it was a month or so after I got the scare…

Summer: oh…

*they think for a moment*

Summer: Am…. am I also an asshole?  I don’t want you to date me if… if you don’t feel comfortable with me…

*she moves with lightning speed to face summer*

Shut your face you are basically an angel. I… Have never been with someone as kind and considerate as you and the fact that you just asked me that proves it. Okay?

*they tear up a little and try to hide a smile*

Summer: …thanks. But.. can I ask why you don’t date the… best people?

*she winces a little in advance*

Uh well… I uh…

*she takes a deep breath*

I… Blamed it on just stupid luck causing me to run into shitty, manipulative people… But to be fair I uh… Don’t really deserve good people…

*she says the next part under her breath*

I don’t deserve you…

*their eyes widen and start to tear u*

Summer: No- no that’s not… that’s not true at all. You can’t do that to yourself.

*they get choked up on their own words*

*she turns herself around and looks play with summer’s hair*

Hey hey uh… I honestly…don’t cry it’s… Oh godamn I made you cry..

*she turns back around again and continues playing with summer’s hair*

Summer: No, Hallie you can’t do that. Forget about me. You can’t let yourself get into abusive situations like that. I-it’s not… p-please. You have to p-p-promise me th-that you wont d-do that anymore.

*their voice starts to break*

*she takes another deep breath but this time it doesn’t help and she lets out a small sob*

….I …. I promise for you… You’re probably one of the best things to happen to me I r-really do mean what I said earlier…

Summer: I-I’m not saying that w-we will, but e-even if we break up-p, you are not-t allowed to do that. I-I can’t stand the idea o-of you…

*they break into a silent sob*

Summer:  I l-love you too m-much to let you do that…

*she goes over it again in her head for a few seconds before nodding and holding back sobs*

Mhm…I promise. But… But I also hope we don’t break up. ever… But that’s something for another day…

*they take a shaky breath*

Summer: T-thank you… and me neither.

*she takes a second to collect herself before chuckling*

I’m doing a good job of keeping you awake aren’t I? ….anyway I’m uh…. Still good for more questions if you want and I’ll let you know if and when I’m overwhelmed if you’re still curious…

Summer: just… one more thing. Why did you decide to be with… me? If you… yeah… did I seem bad at the time?

…don’t be uh offended… but since the air was tense I guess… Beth was angry at you and didn’t exactly paint you like a wonderful person… so I gotta be honest I thought your flirting was just humoring me and when you confessed to me you looked so shy and vulnerable and…. I was really confused…

*she squeezes Summer’s hand*

You are the world’s best pleasant surprise.

*they laugh a little*

Summer: No offense taken, really. I wasn’t… the best person when we first met. In fact, I’ve hurt beth and winter a lot in the past. I’m surprised Winter still puts up with me, considering all the shit I put her through.

*they catch themself rambling*

*she squeezes their hand again*

Well you’re different and that’s what counts. You made magic out of your second chance.

*they shift so that they’re laying on their side*

Summer: …I don’t deserve you.

*she leans down to kiss them on the nose*

I don’t deserve you. You deserve the world.

*they close their eyes and take a deep breath*

Summer: Well, whichever way it is, I love you soso much.

*she curls up a little closer to Hallie*

Mm I love you more.

*she hesitate for a second and opens her mouth to say something before sighing and flopping against the couch*

Welp I’ve never found someone I’ve trusted more with my giant ball of shitty past than you so… and I should talk about this and you have definitely read my mind anyway so uh… Whatcha wanna know? It’ll get probably heavy… No it’ll definitely get heavy and I may cry but you know you’ll stay awake… you wanna know about Aiden or?

*they nod*

Summer: Yeah… how did you meet him?

Okay so this is a longish story and it’s also kinda funny and not that heavy so thanks for starting with it.

*she takes a deep breath and takes a second to think*

So…. It was a uh school basketball game and the home team was losing so I flung myself towards one of the players, I was in the front row and there was nothing in the way of the seats and the gym, I grabbed him by the shoulders and shoved him towards the ball and he ended up getting it and I think home team won the game? Eh it was forever ago. Anyway that guy was Aiden’s friend and we started talking.

….I could’ve just said we met at a game… Welp.

*they chuckle a little, then wince*

Summer: So you met Aidan through him?

*she smiles and squeezes their hand*

Yep. Actually his name’s Jordan and he’s really chill! We made it a thing to get coffee whenever we’re free but we kinda drifted y'know. He’s all sports and stuff. Still cool though. I think he’s deleted Aiden from all his social media and continues to do so even though that whole whatever ended Years ago.

Summer: so… what did Aidan do that makes him such an asshole?

*she laughs a bit*

Oh that’s a longer answer. Actually more of a 4 part book series. Well for one he cheated ridiculously. I was told about it a lot but I just kinda… Ignored it? Figured it wasn’t really my buisness I guess among other things. Also uh… Well I was 15 when we dated and he uh…. Well I got a bit of a …
