❝ you're fucking kidding me. ❞

VIENNA KEPT HERSELF in the bathroom till around one in the morning. she didn't leave once the voices lowered, she didn't leave when anyone knocked on the door, she didn't leave once she knew it was over. she left the bathroom when it was over an hour since the last person was heard.

once unlocking the door, she moved her body slowly throughout the house, hoping not a creak would be heard. yet, as she made her way to the living room, she made eye contact with lani.

the girl had been sitting on a chair, her feet on the pulled up footrest. "you made it!"

vienna rolled her eyes. "is everyone gone?" she questioned

in which lani nodded in response. the blonde let out a sigh before sitting in the chair beside her best friend.

"why'd you freak like that? i thought you and ryan ended on good terms."

vi shrugged in response. "something about hearing him being here sort of freaked me out."

the blonde then got up from the chair quickly, before walking up to lani's room and falling asleep.

kalani continued to sit downstairs. she scrolled through tiktok for a while, keeping not only her body, but her thoughts silent. it was better that way. if the girl were to even let the thoughts move slightly, she would either burst into a panic attack, or fall onto the ground crying. no inbetween.

it's been six months since walker broke up with her, so why did she care so much? time was known to fix the worst cuts, but for some reason this large wound would never heal.

as the clock struck 3:42, she made her way to the front door, unlocking it and leaving. and that was it. she had made the clear decision to walk to ryan's house. for some reason, it felt worth it. she needed to talk to someone who would finally understand.

july 22nd, 2023

THE MONTEZ HOUSE was around a block away from lani, and with the recent change in walkers energy, she made her way straight to it.

RYAN QUICKLY MADE his way outside, swinging his lanyard as he walked out the door. lani rolled her eyes before opening the door of his car and hopping in the passenger seat. they made small eye contact before ryan put the keys into the jack.

"spill it on me" he said as he rolled the car out of the driveway.

and that's when it started. and immediately lani couldn't stop. ryan sat in the drivers seat, nodding, trying to find at least one food place open at this hour.

"and i still can't believe ive literally been on delivered for over 8 hours." she finished as the boy pulled into a parking spot by a small diner.

"maybe he's asleep" ry responded.
"since 6 pm? yeah right." lani said, unbuckling her seatbelt.

"wait. you said since 6 pm?" he perked up, moving his hand off of the door.

lani nodded as ryan's face swiftly faded into a frown. "i'm so sorry lani."

immediately, a questioning look fell onto her face. "he went to some big hollywood party."

"you're fucking kidding me."
