Oh my god, Im sick af but the dash hasn’t moved much so. I guess it’s....fine?, Im sorry I have fever and i can’t get on rn. 

“didn’t say it was, but congrats to you.” august smiled, knowing that he hated when people made a big deal about his love life as well. “sounds like a gentleman though, what’s his name if i may ask?”

❛Well thanks.❜ she chuckles. She had his name on the back of her mind but couldn’t remember if it was Charles or David.  ❛Honestly, I---can’t remember. Im horrible at this. I think his name was David. Not sure.❜  

| ◤° [ ‘ OH, COME ON. that’s so exciting , rach. why do you sound like you went to a funeral? ’ maybe she was on a high, the only thing that felt like it was going right in her life at this point was her relationship with august. it felt nice having someone that cared about her, not just fucking her. ‘ come on, we could double date! ’

| ◤° [ ‘ I LOVE YOU, rach, but you sound like the worst date. were you even nice to him? ’ the blonde sighed, adjusting her grip on the sleeping baby in her arms.’ did you even want to go on the date because it really doesnt sound like you did. ’

| ◤° [ FLASHBACKS OF THE last time that he’d opened the door to rach, she’d let out more emotions than lex had expected and now letting her into his home again had him wondering what would happen. ‘ hey, uh, thanks for coming over. it’s just me tonight. ’

“oh, man. rachel on a date? this should be front page news. and he paid? oh no! should i call the new york times? or the washington post? this sure beats whatever stupidity is going on in the white house.”

❛Hm?❜ she said turning to see Trista. She wasn’t really talking to her, why would she tell her anything anyway?, they weren’t friends. A roll of her green eyes is all it took.  ❛Yeah, I’ll call later.❜ the girl said to the one on the phone.  ❛I wasn’t talking to you. But okay.❜ the girl chuckles and shrugs. Phone on hand still.      

“oh, sorry. didn’t mean to interrupt your thoughts.” he rambled quickly, giving a small nod. “uh yea…it’s kind of nerdy but really good. and it’s actually understandable even if you’re not a nerd.”

❛no, no it’s fine.❜ she flashes a warm smile.  ❛Im sure I can understand the choice of words the author has used. If not, there’s always a dictionary. Right?❜

| ◤° [ TONGUE IN CHEEK, eyes averting past her slight form. the words were nice to hear, but they didn’t erase the last meetings they’d had. ‘ i don’t… i think we should just chill for a while. cool off. ’ not talk to one another, not see one another. he’d done this before, kept saying he was ready for a relationship and when the opportunity arose, he fucked it up somehow and then pulled back as if the other had done all wrongs on their own. ‘ you’re not losing me. i just on’t really wanna do this, rachel. i’m not looking for no drama. ’

“uhhh…did you say something?” noah looked up from the book he was buried in. this was typical to find the young male, nose buried in a book or furiously scribbling as he attempted to catch up in the industry. “it’s a good book, i highly suggest it.” 

❛I was actually talking to myself.❜ she speaks. Her brows raise and a soft laugh escapes her lips. It’s been a while since she read something, not like she wasn’t a fan of books. She was a big one, but her time was limited lately.  ❛It looks you’re really into it. Must be good.❜
