alessia.

with a cigarette in her hands, alessia roamed down the streets of tallow, arizona. she had only been in the city for a few months & she could already feel herself getting bored of it. it seemed that everywhere she went was the same. same shit, different place. she sighed as she took a drag from her cigarette & threw it on the ground. “i’m ready to fuck something up. you in ? ” she asked the person who happened to be in the same vicinity as she was.

scrolling through her phone with one hand while a couple of shopping bags were held in the other, she was distracted immediately by the sound of the other’s voice. gaze traveling upward, her look of confusion was quickly replaced with recognition. “alessia, babe,” she greeted with a tiny smile. “fuck something up? how? and what? ooh, wait -- are you going to do some photography? i’d literally love to watch. please.”

ese.

ese had just gotten off stage after shaking her ass , titties still on full display as she stands at the bar inspecting the shot bought for her. after a moments hesitation she picked it up and threw it back before wrinkling her nose , fixing the other with a displeased look as she swallowed it , “ god , what was that ? trying to kill me ? did one of these bitches hire you to fuck me up and make me break an ankle on stage ? “ she teased with a smirk as she flicked the empty shot glass towards them. 

“no? i know you’re lying and it’s probably the best fucking shot you’ve ever had.” a look of faux offense took over victor’s features and he grabbed a shot to prove a point. trying his best to hide his own look of disgust once the drink hit his tongue, he gave a nonchalant shrug. “hey, it’s not that bad. besides, that’s what the bartender recommended. i’m just trying to please you, you know? anyway, when are you done? i need a favor. it’s real important and shit.”

abi.

“i just feel like people are watching me, you know? like, the whole population on earth are actually government spies who’s mission is to watch and monitor me. one day they’ll attack and i’ll win, because, you know, i’d be destined to beat them, of course. i’d be like that vine!”

“or you could be on your very own version of ‘the truman show’ except it’ll be the abi show,” he pointed out, clearly entertained and figuring it’d make more sense than a worldwide attack. “i don’t know, man. obviously the government is tracking us all, but the whole population on earth? what are you hiding? if we’re all out to get you, there must be a reason why.”

ethan.

Ethan looked up from his phone when he saw the other person approaching him. “Well… You’re definitely not my Grindr date. And— yes, I’m using the word date loosely. But unless you’re packing a six pack and a ten inch, you ain’t the one.” He smirked, looking insufferably smug as usual. “So what do you want now?”

he should’ve been used to ethan’s blunt personality at this point, but still, seb’s brows furrow in annoyance, although there’s the tiniest bit of amusement there as well. “no, i’m absolutely not.” he agreed, merely shrugging at the second part. “thats for me to know and for you to never find out. although, the six pack is a given. i was just coming by to say hi, but if you’re busy, it’s cool. you wanna do a set tomorrow?”

lucie.

Okay, so I have a few days off and I really want to get drunk and dance in a cramped room with loud music. Please please please please come with me, first round on me.

“that sounds like so much fun. not too cramped, right? i’m a little bit claustrophobic. also, i need to know what kind of drinks we’re talking. it’s important.”

[evocativcs]

bastian.

where was he ? could be anywhere , could be his own damn place but he was still strung out after the party the night before. he had yet to go to sleep , working his way through whoever was awake and willing to let him stick his tongue down their mouth. annoyance flickered across his face as he opened his eyes , the girl he had been sucking face with moments prior still straddling him as he wiped his mouth and lolled his head to the side. his nostrils flared as glowered at the intruder , “ mon dieu , do you not knock ? “

brows lifted in shock at the display, almost causing her to drop the latte in her hand. she was exhausted and wanted nothing more than to get into bed, but now she was wide awake and angry -- not an easy feat to achieve with ainsley. “it’s my room,” she sputtered, kicking the door further open with the back of her heel. “i want you guys out.”

[evocativcs]

honey.

a small laugh leaves honey’s lips - whether it was a genuine laugh or not was kept secret. “true.” she sips her drink, “oh right, are you close with your family?” she asks curiously, an amused expression playing on her features at his expression. “well it’s not baking soda so yeah, seriously…. if i want? well i know i want it but do you? you can pussy out if you want, i so don’t mind.” she shrugs, watching him down the drink as she sips the last few drops of hers. “wanna go up to mine?” she tilts her head, eyes shooting upward because she lived in the apartments above most of tallow’s bars, conveniently enough for her.

he grins, pleased with her agreement whether or not she was telling the truth. “yeah, yeah. that’s what i thought.” the question confuses him because it’s not one that he has really considered. at some point he might’ve said yes, but even then he wasn’t so sure. “well, my honey, i’d say i’m real fuckin’ close with them, but they’re not close with me. get it?” a laugh falls past his lips and now he’d rather be in any state of mind than the one he’s currently in. “not sugar either i’m guessing? hey, i never fucking pussy out. you think my name’s cassius or some shit? besides, i can’t let you do it alone. that’s irresponsible.” before she even finishes speaking, he’s up from his seat. “let’s go.”

[evocativcs]

honey.

“kade told ainsley, ains told me.” she nods slowly, clearing that up because she noted his confusion, “right, we’re trainwrecks.” she laughs once, gaze focused on the bruised jaw of her ex. “who threw the first punch?” she tilts her head, ignoring his question but she nods at his invite and sits in closer. “and why?” she lifts an eyebrow, taking her flask from her bag and taking a long sip before putting it back. she’d given up on spending all her money at the bar most nights.

a short laugh follows her explanation because he should’ve known from his past that the story would get out right away. “better to embrace it, yeah?” he shifts in his seat at her question, but she’s already seen the worst of him, so there’s no use in hiding anything. “i did. i don’t know what happened. i thought i had everything in control,” he trails off, downing the rest of his drink. “kade just doesn’t know when to shut up. not an excuse, but still. here, what d’you want? it’s on me.” he looks down at his hands, sighing ‘cause he knows he can’t just ignore it.  “honey, can i ask you something?” he doesn’t wait for her to agree. “are you with the gang?”

[evocativcs]

honey.

“if you’re so good at reading people, what’s on my mind?” she purses her lips, lifting one eyebrow but not agreeing that she did love it. “right, trust fund baby or?” she smirks, making sure the bartender wasn’t paying attention their way. she lifts a baggie of white powder from her bra so he could see, before tucking it right back in. “so is that appealing to you?” she smiles, tilting herself closer to him.

“that you absolutely cannot wait to get in my pants,” he answers, confidently. “shit, i wish. all my problems would be fuckin’ solved if i had a boatload of money just waiting for me. he works for the school,” he explains, knowing it was more of a double-edged sword than anything. at the sight of the powder, his gaze widens and he’s quick to look around to make sure no one else saw. “seriously?” his voice is low, brows lifting ‘cause even though he had his share of experimental drugs, he’d never gone down that route. “guess we can if you want, but first --” he breaks off to grab his drink, downing the rest of it.

[evocativcs]

honey.

honey’s gaze wavers over him as he wipes away the blood - of course - she knew the source of it, but he didn’t know that. she sits down at the other side of the booth, “you don’t think i’m a trainwreck, do you?” she asks, her expression unmoving because frankly she didn’t mind whether he thought it or not, he didn’t want her anymore regardless. “i was drinking alone anyway.”

brows draw together in confusion as he searches her features briefly, but he’s quick to follow it with a slow shake of his head. “i don’t,” he follows up. “if you are, then i guess i am too. can’t help being a product of our circumstances, or whatever they say.” bringing the glass to his lips, he takes sip, wincing in the process. “why’d you ask anyway? you can join me if you’d like.” 

[evocativcs]

kade.

kade flinches at his response, and then flinches again when he touches his jaw not because it hurt but because the feeling of his touch reminded him of less painful times. “i’d say so, i got him like… twice.” he murmurs, feeling stupid at even the slightest attempt to brag about it to levi. “no ice, ains already told me to but i came to get food instead.” he presses his lips to a line, running his hands back through his hair and he was grateful the staff had stopped staring at him like he was a random beaten up loner. “mostly, there’s a whole lot of nothing to do in this shitty town… and apparently i piss people off”

the corner of his mouth quirks into a half-smile, followed by a slightly exasperated sigh. “good job, shithead.” his words are more affectionate than anything, knowing better than anyone that bad habits were hard to break. “maybe don’t do that next time? you should’ve listened to ains. you’re gonna be able to barely see outta that eye at this rate,” he reprimands, dropping his hand. “yeah, i’d say you have a tendency to do that. c’mon, we gotta get some ice on that. you think the workers will let us grab some? my place isn’t far either.”

frankie.

“ yeah bitch, i’ve got magic hands i thought you knew that ?? ” she cracked her knuckels then, as if to show how serious she was about the whole thing. “ the boner is NOT my fault, it’s your body’s fault for being all weird. i’m not opposed to a barter system, though. throw me a counter offer, i’ll hear you out. they’re lucky just ‘cause they are. you can’t explain how something is lucky, that’s just how it is. i can find out if you’re gonna have luck in your future though, if you really want me to. ” frankie wiggled her brows, as if she were trying to coax him into agreeing. “ yeah—that’s fair, you’re probably right. i definitely don’t have rent money, i thought maybe you’d just let me in and i could pay you in my love an affection. or, like—blow jobs maybe, if i really had to. ” her shoulders lift in a little shrug, unsure herself if she really meant what she said or not, but she probably did. “ well if you want something magical you should have said so, ‘cause i’ve got mushrooms back in my motel room. we can save those for next time. ” placing the joint between her lips, she lit it up with her lucky lighter and took a deep drag before passing it over, leaving back on her hands. “ i’m always out of it, man. but why are YOU ?? ”

“how could i ever fuckin’ forget? forgive me, please. hey, it’s not me. it’s biology or some shit. blame evolution. blame the gods. jesus, what d’you want? i could bake you some cookies. i have a wicked recipe. i really do. trust me. uh, could fuckin’ give you head for however many hours? doesn’t even have to be reciprocated. oh, i found this pretty sick keychain the other day. it’s a block of cheese, but i’d be willing to give that up too,” he suggested, thinking that all of his offers were pretty decent. “hell yeah, i wanna know. i bet that i do ‘cause i’m destined for great things. fate and shit, but go on ahead.” without a second thought, he finds himself nodding to what he took as a serious offer. “fuck it. move in with me. you have to now ‘cause you got my hopes up. rent can be figured out and, uh, you don’t gotta give bjs as payment -- it’s chill. if you wanted to otherwise, i’d be down. i’ll take the love and affection though.” he grinned, looking toward her expectantly as he nudged her knee with his. “sounds like a fuckin’ plan. we can do them as a housewarming party. it’d be just us two though ‘cause fuck everyone else.” bringing the joint to his lips, he shrugged in the response ‘cause he really couldn’t pinpoint it to one exact thing. “just shit. was thinking ‘bout quitting school, actually. don’t really see the point. it’s just holding me back, you know?”

[evocativcs]

kade.

kade’s gaze flickers on and off of levi’s eyes, because he could see he was concerned - trying to keep his eye contact, he tilts in his chair a little to face him more. “i was talking shit and seb got over it and sorta snapped which i didn’t expect so soon but, i got him back so.” he nods once, nudging the tray of donuts he’d bought but not eaten toward him, “have one, ‘m not hungry.”

“fucking hell, kade,” he mutters, shaking his head in the process. “talking shit? he look as bad as you?” reaching out, he tilts kade’s jaw to the side in order to examine his eye properly. “have you iced it? swelling’s not good.” he shakes his head at the offer, still focused on the injury. “is this what you’ve been getting up to?”

[evocativcs]

kade.

@evocativcs

he’d gone right ahead and not iced his face despite ainsley telling him he should, so he sat in the annoyingly lit donut store with the employees staring at him while he texted his ex - always an ideal situation. though his expression lights up when he hears the bell on the door chime and he watches as levi walks up, a smile tugging on his lips despite the throbbing pain it caused. “hey.” 

even though he had warned him, levi’s gaze widens in shock at the sight of kade’s face, although it quickly transforms into concern. he pulls a chair out, moving it so he’s sat closer to kade. “shit, man,” he mutters, darkened hues traveling over the bruising. “what the hell happened?” he shifts his gaze so it meet’s kade’s instead, the corners of his mouth drooping slightly.

libby.

“ okay well i thought it because it’s true and i just said it out LOUD to make you happy. if you hadn’t requested validation i would have kept it a secret to my death. you’re such a cocky bastard i’m surprised you don’t already have two black eyes, ” she laughed at her own idea of a joke, corners of her eyes crinkling slightly. admittedly, holding hands was an act of intimacy that made her a bit uncomfortable, finding the whole idea a little too lovey-dovey for her taste, but she didn’t let it show. instead libby just played along, as long as it would keep him happy and wanting to fill the empty space in her bed. “ can’t say, i’ve never seen it. twins freak me out, y’know ?? it’s nothing like your perfect dick, i’m sure. maybe his is just magic or something, since i don’t really see where those people are coming from. ‘cause you’re right, he’s the one who did the shitty thing and cheated on his girlfriend so if you ask me, people should be shitting on him instead. but i could be biased since it’s pretty close to home and everything but— ” her voice trailed off as she shrugged a little. “ what, you mean the twin ?? i’d pay to see that. ”

“now that’s what i like to hear. you’re a fuckin’ blessing, libs. if you’d like to give me one of them or both, i wouldn’t be opposed. it’d be kinda hot actually,” he mused, glancing toward her expectantly as if she’d punch him right there. “shit. you’re saying you’d never fuck anyone if they had a twin? that actually might be real fuckin’ smart. they are sorta freaky. no one can compare to my perfect dick, but it’s nice to be reminded from time to time. yeah, he should get tested for stds or whatever.” scoffing, his brows draw together in slight frustration, since he’s admittedly a bit more wound up over the situation than he’d like to admit. not that he’s exactly apologetic either. “yeah, yeah. you’re right --,” breaking off, a frown meets his lips and he moves his arm around her shoulders. “not biased. girls like you and camille don’t deserve that shit, you know? casey’s a dick and so is kade. c’mon, i think he’s mostly bluffing. you think he’s bluffing, right?”
