“ good , “ she breathed the word in response to his confirmation , it wasn’t always important to her that cass said all the right things or voiced the exact same desires and hopes as her because somehow she knew it was true , that if he didn’t then he’d probably run a mile or get all freaked out like he had a habit of doing . she really did think it was good enough that he had promised , that it meant that he really did agree that he’d remember what was important . she still felt those little butterflies flutter their wings , a little squeeze in her heart , whenever he told her that he loved her in return or in general . it seemed so foreign but so perfect . it might have been the fact that she knew how difficult things were for him to voice at times that made it more special to her to know that he would do it , FOR HER . her lips moved against his as his hands moved to the tie of the robe she’d put on a few minutes earlier and she felt her lips curve into a smile as the tie came undone causing it to drop down since her arms were already free from his earlier help , the hand that had been positioned over the material of his clothing moving to slip under his shirt and slide against his torso instead . she liked the warmth , the feeling of his skin and the details of his body and at this point she was certain that she could probably describe every inch of him better than every inch of herself , whether that was inside or out . even so , cass always seemed to have more that he wasn’t showing , more things that were in his history or crushed back into his past waiting to spring out and that made cecilya desperate to know him even more intimately . the physical aspect was only one part of it but no matter how close they got , she always wanted to be closer to him and she was the type of person who always showed the cards in her deck ; she always showed how she felt , what she wanted , in her words , her actions and the way that she could ALWAYS make other people feel loved or wanted . at times it had been nothing but a projection but with cass it was real and she wanted him to always feel that , the wanting that she had for him and the care in which she delivered it , even when it was just fun . parting from the kiss she moved to press a kiss to his jaw and then whisper warm beside his ear , “ it’s definitely my turn to go first this time , “ she teases , referencing the way things normally went , the way he always tried to defer attention from himself and focus on her . for once she wasn’t asking . not because she didn’t care but because she felt that at this point , it was okay to go ahead , that it was comfortable , her hands moving to figure out the material at his waistband as she climbed off of him enough to pull the material down and off his legs without much trouble . “ look at that , i’m an expert , “ she was still teasing , her tone light as she climbed back on top of him and pulled his shirt up slightly so she could press her lips against his body , trailing downwards , one hand resting on the outer edge of his thigh as she pulled gently to press her lips against the front too and then the inside , making her way closer . her hand wrapped around him , a familiar motion , her lips still pressing against different spots as she began to move it before coming to run her tongue against him , gaze flicking up to watch his reaction .
showing things , feelings and giving back the love he desperately wanted to give back tenfold to cecilya , it wasn’t something that came easily . talking or opening up completely wasn’t something that really came all that easily either but when it came to her , he wanted to jump headfirst and try . even if his version of headfirst was a bit of a slower plummet to the ground . she was everything he wanted and more , everything he probably didn’t deserve but nothing he wanted to let go of . the way cecilya saw a future with him , saw a whole life . it was something he’d never saw for himself . a future or a life . figuring something would finally catch up to him and he’d be gone way too soon to have any real future or life to leave . but now he saw more , he saw something with cecilya . he saw a life with her . they both knew it didn’t fix him or cure him from all the demons he faced but she did still help him more than he could ever really put into words without it sounding completely cheesy . ⏤ it was crazy to think how they’d gotten here . after all this time , they managed to be where they were now . it wasn’t even the sexual position they were in but all of it . how comfortable they were with each other , how they knew each other like the back of their hands and how ridiculously in love they were with each other . that was probably the most shocking part of all of it for cassidy . not because it was cecilya but he’d never thought he’d love someone as much as he loved her . he didn’t think it was even possible , like that kind of love didn’t exist . that people that spoke of it , they were full of it . but now he knew , they weren’t . to feel such an intense connection with someone on every single level , it seemed incredibly rare . almost like you had to be lucky to catch it . that if you blinked too fast , you’d miss it .
tucking his lip underneath his top teeth , he bit at his bottom lip slightly when she began to maneuver herself . her hands trailing against his body and pulling down his clothes , pushing up the fabric of his shirt . sexual encounters were always such a weird thing for cassidy . he didn’t know if he got any real satisfaction out of it . for awhile , he thought there was something just that ticked a bit differently with him . but he came to find out he was just disconnected . that sure , it felt good in the normal , friction and motion bit of it all . but cassidy had always , even when he claimed not to be , been a very emotionally reactive person . if there was no emotional connect , he was disconnected . seemingly , that’s why it was so easy for him not to take anything seriously that happened to him . that he let things happen to him without letting it really process if he wanted it or not . but the way things had built with cecilya . the way they started with something a lot more emotionally driven , the way they built that comfort with each other . it brought everything up to an eleven . he trusted her and probably didn’t need her to ask him it was what he wanted because at this point she knew him so well , she knew when he was wanting something and when he wasn’t and she respected him . just as he did with her . cassidy did like to take the attention off himself but it was like cecilya had always slowly worked him up a point of letting some of the attention be on him . trying to let him get comfortable with the idea of it . ❛ you know me , i only like the best . pro shit only . ❜ he joked , his back straightening a bit when she started to move her lips against his skin , a rush like feeling bubbling in his chest as she moved closer and closer . pushing his palms against the mattress as her hand reached up to him and her tongue finally moved against the skin . cassidy closed his eyes for a moment at the feeling , opening them again after a moment . moving one of his hands over to hold onto her free arm as she began .

they were both young , they hadn’t led perfect lives that you wrote home about or boasted about and she knew him … she knew all his issues , all his demons , all the things that he couldn’t seem to resist . she hadn’t expected him to completely change but maybe naively , she was still a little disappointed right then . not really listening , she sat upright , hair tousled over her shoulders as she looked at him , “ have you been drinking or is there something else ? “ there’s no bite in the words , green eyes focusing on him , the only things that give away a hint of emotion as she waits for an answer … and it’s not like she’ll do much with it . she just wants to know . she wants to know everything about the person that she was so certain that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with because she’s still certain , she just doesn’t know how to express that when he stays out like that and she sits up waiting ( although it’s not asked of her ) , she feels lonely like in london all over again . before he can offer much of an answer , although she still wants one , she opens out her arms , teeth dragging lightly across her bottom lips . she knows the question isn’t a nice one but she still wants the contact . at times like this she’s not sure if it’s nice or pathetic how much she loves him . she desperately wants it to be just nice .
𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭 as much as he wanted to be the picture perfect boyfriend to cecilya . he’d never really been big on relationships but when it came to how things were with cecilya , he found himself more invested than he’d ever been in the past . assuming that was the difference when you were really in love with someone . but he still managed to have things he couldn’t shake , habits , feelings , reservations . the way he dug himself into certain holes because it felt wrong not to . it felt wrong to feel as if he was slowly pushing himself off the ground . instead , feeling like he had to continue to bury himself . cecilya helped cass a lot . helped him see different things , helped him allow that kind of love to a certain degree without completely shutting down . he loved her with everything he had , even if he couldn’t necessarily show that all the time . it was something he was slowly but surely working on . knowing she deserved to be with someone that could show how much they loved her constantly just like she showed him how much she loved him . when hearing her question , cassidy turned to look at her more , body shifting slightly in order to turn towards her so he wasn’t breaking his neck to look in her direction . ❛ what do you mean , something else ? ❜ and maybe he just wanted her to say what she was wanting to know in all its ugly detail ? or maybe it was a way to avoid answering the question at hand ? she deserved better than this , he knew that and yet he kept shooting himself in the foot . some of the defensiveness shown on his face started to fade when she reached out to him . a slither of guilt rushing in . it wasn’t like cassidy was out going behind her back with other girls or anything like that . but he was going out and in a way going behind her back and keeping from her the fact that he was still throwing whatever drug he managed to get his hands on into his system . that old new york habits died hard . it seemed like a slippery slope for someone in a committed relationship or even anyone that used them in the way cassidy did . to drown himself , to hurt himself because he was hurting . drugs had a way of making you do things you wouldn’t sober and he didn’t want her to worry . he felt like he could handle it , he’d been handling it . moving forward , he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him . his head falling against her shoulder as he left a small peck against it before laying his forehead in the same spot . ❛ i love you , you know ? ❜ he whispered .

the first shreds of light were leaking in through the window and cecilya sat up hearing movement , blinking sleepily . she wasn’t sure when she’d actually fallen asleep but she’d been waiting up for a while for cass to come back , not sure when he’d eventually turn up . living together in cass’ old apartment while she looked for someplace new , she liked spending this much time together but some things never seemed to completely change … “ hey , when did you get back ? what time is it ? “
𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 . traveling became the new normal for cassidy and now it was over . it felt like an end of an era . in a lot of ways , he wanted it to be over . . . or he thought he did ? he wanted a break , he wanted to get back to new york with cecilya . now , everything should’ve been falling into place . cecilya came home with him . they were momentarily living together and they didn’t have to worry about anything school related or roommates . other than , his roommate but she wasn’t as drama filled . the general drama that seemed to follow them was seemingly gone . but old habits died hard and as great as his relationship life was , it didn’t fix the things he obviously had issues with . the moment he got back to new york , he was reminded of all the things that were so easily at his grasp before . trying his best to coming into the room as quietly as possible . cassidy plopped down on the bed next to cecilya . a ‘ oops ‘ falling from his lips as he started to push off his shoes , letting them drop to the side before he heard cecilya’s voice . ❛ hey baby , ❜ cassidy spoke , leaning over to kiss the side of her head . the smell of alcohol prevalent but unknown to him . ❛ you should go back to bed , it’s early . ❜

THE TRUTH WAS THAT in a way their lives together had always been small , even when they had felt big then they’d still been contained within these settings , places where they were forced together . outside of that at times they had ended up free floating but cecilya knew that she wouldn’t be able to let him go this time around , that she was certain that she was holding on . even though at times he made that incredibly hard , moving backwards and forwards with progress and disappearing off , things from the past always popping up at random times that made her insecure that she never knew what was coming next ( although she never worried about cass’ love for her , that she was top of his list or that she was the one he wanted to be with , he’d proved that had to be the case ) . she leaned closer when he finished speaking , her lips brushing against his as she closed her eyes , not quite a kiss before speaking , “ your girl ? “ she repeated liking the ownership , the belonging . so much of her life spent not knowing where she belonged , searching for someone to belong to and choosing the worst people in unnatural and forced connections , she’d been lucky to find a few people she had genuine feelings for but the love she felt for cass … she knew he was HER person . she closed the gap then , pressing her lips lightly against his as her hand moved up to slip through the hair at the side of his face , a slow kiss that was full of intention and feeling .
when she pulled back then she just about bumped her nose against his , a small meaningful knock before moving her hand to rest against his shoulder , “ i think i like the sound of that , super crispy food and all of my clothes ending up dyed UGLY grey , “ she teases , circling back to the things he had listed easily as she shifts to move to sit on his lap , using the hand that had been on his shoulder to push him backwards on the bed in a way that was reminiscent of their first encounter of that kind , the way that he’d actually surprised her despite her being the forward one . he still had that affect on her , the ability to surprise her at times and make her feel like she was having a completely brand new experience doing things they’d done over and over by now . she laughed , a quiet sound as she moved to lay on top of him , her gaze meeting his , “ i love you , “ she moved to run her thumb along his jaw , her voice soft and serious because she meant it , “ i know that you’re the person that i want to spend the rest of my life with and i don’t care what that looks like , as long as it’s with you , “ her hand slid down to gently slip over his crotch area over the material although it was slightly random considering the topic of conversation , a small smile pulling at her lips , “ promise you’ll remember that . “
❛ mhm , ❜ cassidy responded , a smile crossing over his lips as she closed the gap between them . it was true , any other time they had been separated because of breaks or summer they ended up letting different things in their lives back home either convince them otherwise or even make them feel unworthy of reaching out in the first place . but things were different then . they were in a completely different place and cassidy was more than positive that he wouldn’t let her slip through his fingers like he so easily let happen when he went home last . even if they did have to be apart , he’d be texting or calling her every single day and he definitely wouldn’t be the feature of random girls instagram stories . he knew that he didn’t show it as much and at times he questioned a lot of the things in his life . questioning how long things would last or wondering when things expiration date were , including his own . but if there was one thing he knew for certain was going to be in his life no matter what . it’d be cecilya . it was an interesting thing to wrap his mind around being that he’d never really had anyone in his life that he couldn’t convince himself would be gone and out of his life at one point or another but as much as cecilya believed that cass was her person , cassidy believed that cecilya was his . no matter what happened or where life took them , she’d always be that person for him . he’d never really believed in things like that but ever since he met cecilya , even when they were just friends , she’d always been a special factor in his life and she’d always been the person things made sense with even in their most bizarre moments .
❛ i’ll just be your stay at home boyfriend . cook , clean and take care of our dog or cats while you’re at work . ❜ he continued to tease around about a future apartment and future shared pets . moving his hands to her waist as she climb onto his lap before he could do much more she was pushing him down onto the bed . sliding his hands up to the sides of her face , his fingers tangling in the bits of hair that fell to the side . it might’ve seemed a little random but he liked that about cecilya . that there wasn’t this repetitive nature with her . that , yes , they could be very comfortable in the things they did and she knew him like the back of her hand but she still could manage to get his heart pounding and get him excited . he liked how different they could be from each other sometimes . how she could bring this sense of looseness into his life at times . free him from the insanity that sometimes swirled around in his head . it wasn’t just being pushed back onto a bed but she had a way of getting him out of his head even with the most simple of things . just being with her , hearing her talk for a little while , being near her or even just laying with her and talking about absolutely nothing . it was like breathing in a breath of fresh air with cecilya when he’d always felt like he was constantly holding his breath . ❛ and i love you , ❜ he spoke back , slipping his hands down to push the fabric of the robe on her shoulders down her arms as she moved her hands down on him . it wouldn’t be cecilya and cassidy if they weren’t saying relatively serious things to each other while in certain predicaments . pressing his lips together for a moment , his eyes glued to hers . usually words like that would have him running in the opposite direction , especially knowing the person saying it to him meant it but he didn’t want to run with cecilya . because he wanted the same things , even if he didn’t say it . moving one of his hands back up to press his fingers against the back of her neck , pulling her down closer to him to kiss her . once their lips parted again , he nodded in response . ❛ i promise , i’ll remember . ❜ and he planned on keeping that promise . even when things got rough in his head and he managed to let himself think he was completely alone . he’d hope that he’d come back to this moment and shut up whatever voices in his head . moving his hands again , he started to mess with the tie on her robe to undo it .

moving her leg so she could shift closer to him and sling the other one over his lap , she responded to his question by shooting him an adoring look and letting out a really small and quiet laugh . despite everything she always found him cute , sweet , even if she had to guide him into the things she wanted and needed sometimes , she never questioned that he loved her now that he’d said it out loud or that she was certain he was her person ; the one she’d always wanted and waited for while making various mistakes in her other relationships . “ you , “ she tells him , bringing her hands into her lap and wiggling her fingers to gesture for him to hold onto them because even in a simple conversation , she liked to touch in all the possible ways . it always made her feel closer to him when they were holding hands or cuddling or just sitting right next to each other . she could be clingy and she knew it but it was part of her love language , heavy in affection and connection . there was nothing really on her mind though , other than him . there was nothing upsetting or bothering her that she wanted to vent or complain about , for once she was sure she was feeling quite content momentarily in whatever seeming peace existed . things didn’t have to be perfect , they just had to be okay . “ i don’t know what’s been on my mind but it’s usually you , “ she clarifies , a soft smile suggesting that wasn’t a bad thing but a positive one , lately she was always thinking about the future in a better way . she wasn’t scared that she was going to be let down or left behind . “ i was thinking about how good it’s going to be when we move in together and i get to annoy you and follow you around all the hours of the day . except for one i’m planning glamorous celebrity weddings , then you can bring me my iced coffee and annoy me instead . “
𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐬 , cassidy slid his fingers between hers . brushing his thumb over the skin before bringing her hand up to his lips and pressing them against the back of her hand , dropping their hands back down to her lap like they had been before . cassidy knew he had a pretty negative outlook on life . it was hard looking into the future and seeing all the good things that waited for him . see all the possibilities that were at his fingertips . he’d always been the type of person that just saw all the mistakes he’d made and all the reasons he wasn’t were he should be already because of those mistakes . he was always too focused on failures than accomplishments . maybe that was part , ( a fraction , ) of the reasons he was finding himself falling deeper and deeper into the hole he seemed to create for himself off and on . because things were coming to�� an end , an end of an era of his life . and sure , he accomplished so many things . a future was out there , he was finishing up school , he had all these amazing friends and an amazing girlfriend . he had so much more twists and turns to go . but lately , this was really the only thing that made sense to him . the only thing he was sure about was the two of them and he was scared to make that any kind of known because of how reliant and possibly bad that might’ve seemed . he knew he had to get his shit together . there was a part of him that thought he’d have more of his life figured out and feel a little less lost once things started seemingly falling into place .
guiltily , lately it seemed like the only thing keeping him from burying himself was how much he was a completely goner in love with the girl sitting next to him . he wasn’t used to needing people or wanting people around for the long haul , so it was a new feeling . one that came with it’s waves of fears . but despite how hard it was for him to see past a minute ahead , he liked hearing her talk about their future . the fact that she saw him in hers at all . ❛ damn , here i was thinking you were having some weird sexy fantasies about me . ❜ he teased , leaning over a bit to give her a small peck . ❛ you say that now but believe me , i’ll end up annoying you more . you’ll have to deal with my constant attempts in the kitchen , burning everything . you’ll have to deal with all my mood swings and the weird rock music that’ll constantly be playing . mixing the whites and the colors in the laundry . there’s a list of things you’re gonna have to deal with in your day to day while you’re also out there planning celebrity weddings and the fanciest events . it’ll be like having two jobs . ❜ smiling so she knew he was just messing around , he squeezed her hand . ❛ and you best believe imma bring all the coffee . make sure everyone knows you got a super annoying but thoughtful boyfriend back home . make sure none of those up and coming husbands or wives hit on my girl . ❜ cassidy laughed , continuing to joke .

“oh yeah i’ve seen jaws and like you i haven’t seen it in years.” she said and looked at him again before nodding her head. “you thinking maybe you had a fever dream? i know i have those sometimes but then again if you have a strong feeling that you saw it then you probably did and just forgot the unimportant parts.” she said and sipped her drink again.
❛ 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 ? i wouldn’t be surprised if i had some weird fever dream with jaws involved . seems oddly fitting for me . ❜ cassidy couldn’t help but laugh at the fact that it was true . if anyone was to have a fever dream and it have a weird nod to the iconic movie , it’d be him . it was random enough to happen to him . ❛ what’s the weirdest fever dream you’ve ever had ? it’s gotta be weirder than finding out you’re an avid fan of jaws . ❜

“ you might be onto something . maybe i had an ulterior motive , “ he hands dropped to rest on his own waist as she tilted her head to the side , green eyes surveying him for a few seconds before she leaned up slightly to close the gap and press a kiss to his lips . she lingered there longer than normal before moving to wrap her arms around him tightly in a hug , bringing herself closer to him . when you spent enough time with somebody then you could always feel when something was wrong and with cass , there was usually something up . breaking away she pulled her material robe off of the back of the en suite door and pulled it on , tying the cord around her waist before reaching for his hand again . “ i feel like we haven’t spoken as much as normal , “ it was a weird thing to say considering how much they spoke and hung out but cecilya always seemed to want to know what was going on with him . it seemed like when bodhi was around then cass and cecilya had somehow seen more of each other and she wondered what he’d been up to , things that maybe she wouldn’t really like but still wanted to know no matter what . there’s no real weighted expectation in her gaze as she looks at him before lightly releasing his hand so she can walk over to the end of her double bed and begin undoing the straps of her shoes to put them back away for later in the week . she’s paying more attention to what she’s doing , trying not to focus too much on him and make him feel like she’s waiting for him to admit to doing something or another because she’s not . sitting back upright , “ can you help me undo the strap ? “ she doesn’t really need him to , she just wants him to come back over .
❛ 𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐢𝐭 , ❜ cass joked around before leaning down a little when she moved forward and kissed him . kissing her back , he slowly pulled away once she did and pressed his lips against her cheek before standing straight again and wrapping his arms around her , accepting the hug . cassidy thought he was pretty good at hiding certain things , things he didn’t want to burden anyone with . especially cecilya , she may have been the only and main person he wanted to protect from things she didn’t need protecting from . the things that she could more than likely sense even when he was acting perfectly normal to anyone else . he just wanted her to have a easy and simple relationship . she deserved some smooth sailing after all the shit she’d been through . cassidy had this idea in his head at times that it was always him that she had to be saved or protected . that it was always him she was consoling and helping , he didn’t want that to be all she ever did . it felt selfish in a way , selfish of him . like he’d drain her for all her light force . but he should’ve known better than to think she wouldn’t sense that something was up . it was cecilya , she knew him better than anyone . if anything , trying to block out certain things in his life when she was around was probably making her feel a lot more distant from him , something he hadn’t really taken into consideration .
when she pulled away , cassidy watched as she walked over to the edge of the bed and began to undo the straps on her heels . hearing her words , he knew what she meant . sure , they went to the same program , of course they say each other a lot . they talked more than some people around this place talked but it was one thing to be around someone but for there to be a slight distance still there . maybe , he didn’t realize it immediately but it was true . they seemed to spend a lot more time together talking when bodhi was around and lately , it’d been hard to get cassidy in one place and when he was , it was like he was trying far too hard . nodding , he walked over and joined her on the bed . he didn’t question the help . although it should’ve been clear she was just getting him to come over to her being that there was no doubt that cecilya knew her way around a heel but cassidy didn’t even think to question it as he sat next to her and leaned over , pulling her legs up into his lap before messing with the strap on the shoe . ❛ we can talk now , ❜ cass spoke as he undid the strap and slid the heel off her foot , setting it down on the side . ❛ talk to me , what’s on your mind ? ❜ he asked , looking over at her .

“ probably not, ” it was an honest answer. she had a tendency to be up in arms about someone not liking her shoes, let alone one of her best friends saying something that made her stomach drop. “ but i can promise not to punch you. ” a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. she doesn’t come to cassidy for advice, well not real advice, she comes to him to talk. to dump out all of the thoughts and feelings she can’t tell anyone else. he’d always been the one to listen to her. take in her words without a drop of judgement. when it started she didn’t even know his name, she couldn’t have cared less what he thought of her, or anyone else for that matter. the point was to get drunk, blab about her feelings, and go. most times she couldn’t remember exactly what they’d talked about in the first place so it was easy to tell him things she kept buried under the surface. she can’t remember the exact moment that changed, when she stared tucking little strips of his advice in her back pocket, but this wasn’t like usual. fortune cookie advice she could handle. she could break down his cryptic meanings into whatever she wanted them to be. this time, there were no bite sized nuggets of wisdom that you have to squint your eyes at, just truths about herself that she wasn’t aware he knew. “ i don’t know. ” the words leave her mouth before she can even think. an automatic response to feeling any type of emotional pressure. “ well i…i do. i do know. ” picking at her nail polish as she tries to force his words through her mind. “ i think that i…i know how to be alone. i’m really good at it, in fact, ” she laughs a little at how sad it sounded. “ what i don’t know, is how to be whatever it is that people are looking for, i’m not a perfect girlfriend who keeps her emotions under control when things go to shit. i’m not a good housewife who’ll want to stay home and raise the babies. i’m not even a good friend, who is there to listen to people instead of just dumping all my shit on everyone all the time. i… ” trailing off as her brows knit together, “ i don’t want to be alone. ” that much was painfully obvious. she went out of her way to spend every waking moment with someone. attaching herself to anyone, anything, that showed her even a drop of attention. “ i want to be able to just be the old me, that trusts blindly, that gives second chances. it’s just hard to let go of everything else. to believe that anyone would want to actually be with me, you know. the me that’s a total fucking mess, that swears like a sailor, that drinks like a fish and takes a stuffed bear with me to every destination. i don’t know if it’s even fair to want that, to try and force someone to put up with me and all my…meness. ”
𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐨𝐚𝐡 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐝𝐨 . she could choose what she wanted to listen to and what she didn’t . he could hardly get his own life in order , he didn’t even know if the words that came out of his mouth were advice worthy but maybe he just wanted her to know that the way she felt , it wasn’t something that was strictly just on her . that in a way , she wasn’t alone in the greater aspect of things . ❛ you know , i get it . ❜ cassidy began , wanting to let her in a little to see that they both struggled with certain things . even with the different directions both of their lives were taking in a relationship sense . ❛ i’ve always been really good at being alone or at least i told myself that . it was easier telling myself that i’m good at being alone rather than realizing it felt kinda good to have someone be there even when things weren’t easy , as scary as that is . i still sometimes forget that and feel like i have to figure it all out on my own but maybe that’s not always the truth , you know what i mean ? maybe sometimes it’s okay to let people be there ? ❜ raising his shoulders up and down quickly , he shook his head . he wasn’t really sure where he was going with any of this but it was his attempt to help . even though it seemed that cassidy had this incredible ability to send people into even more of a spiral than they might’ve already been going through .
❛ you shouldn’t put so much pressure on yourself to be some version of this picture perfect girl . ‘cause honestly , you don’t want someone that’ll want you for everything you aren’t or some fake ideal of what you think you have to be . ❜ he understood where noah was coming from . it was things he could find himself thinking about at times . but something he knew more than anything was he could say all he wanted but the only person that could convince her that she was worth it , flaws and all , was her . it was a constant battle he knew all too well . a curse , to dislike oneself so much they destroyed any chances of anything real or they grasped onto the real and threatened fractures in the building of that relationship because of walls that’d find themselves letting down before quickly shooting them back up again the moment they remembered how unworthy they felt . it was something cassidy was constantly working on but it was worth it to him . maybe that was the point ? nothing would magically fix either of them . it’d be hard , it’d be scary but the only way to find out it was worth it was to go for it . and it was worth it to cassidy , at least when it came to his current relationship .
❛ the fucked part is , you’ll never be the old version of yourself . it’ll always be hard and to some people you won’t make any fucking sense but to others , you might ? but you won’t know that until you let them get to know you . i get it , you don’t wanna put anyone through all the torture you feel like you go through dealing with yourself but this is a crazy concept , trust me . but sometimes the opinion you have of yourself is the total opposite from what someone else might have of you . to some people , it’s not dealing with you . it’s wanting to be a part of your life and enjoying the time they spend with you , even when things aren’t easy . it sounds cheesy and like completely bullshit , believe me . i used to think it was a load of crap but sometimes it’s nice to be proven wrong even if you gotta be reminded of that a few times . ❜ cassidy rambled a bit before leaning forward and placing a hand on her shoulder . ❛ so you wanna get fucking wasted or what ? ❜ he laughed , trying to lighten the mood .

since they had departed from turkey, she hadn’t spoken to casidy. the moon offering her light , the door creaks &. —— chocolate hues shoot up , cassidy coming through the double doors that led to the pool area. once again , they were here alone , together. the white powder coercing through her veins already, her emotions on the bridge &. the vodka in her cup, surely wasn’t helping. before she knew it, once again a plethora of words escapes from crimson petals ❝ there’s a side to you, that I never knew, all the things you’d say. they were never true &. the games you’d play. you would always win ——— ❞ @ofsilvcs
𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 . it was clear they didn’t want to run into each other again . something that felt quite ironic being that there was a point in time when all cassidy wanted was an excuse to run into the girl . holding his own bottle of liquor in his hand as he walked outside , he brought the bottle up and poured some of the vodka down his throat before dropping his hand and the bottle back down to his side . it was something cassidy did a lot . finding himself slipping away to somewhere he thought was a lot more private . a moment to drown in whatever substances he craved in that moment . but more so , letting himself drown in all the insanity that filled his mind . ⏤ as he walked closer to the pool , he froze a little when seeing the redhead . maybe he should’ve turned around right then . refused to let any conversation conspire between the two of them but he didn’t go . instead , he stood there for a moment before walking closer when she began to speak . sitting down by the edge of the pool , he kept his eyes off her as he slipped his shoes and socks off . rolling his pant legs up , he dunked his legs into the water . finally , cassidy looked over , eyes focusing in on her brown ones . ❛ when ? ❜ he asked bluntly , ❛ when do you think i was playing games ? then ? ❜ cass stopped for a moment , memories of how they used to be back then flashing through his head . ❛ or now ? ❜

of course, silver knew that. it’s one thing to not be ready for a relationship and it’s another to getting into a three way relationship. how was that ever gonna work? maybe for some people it could but it’s not for everyone. “i think you were trying to tell yourself that. i am not one to talk but unless it benefited everyone i don’t think whatever that was, was going to last. cecilya is great but i could never just wait around for my s/o to leave their s/o to spend time with me.” she laughed at his words, “trust me, i have a list of people i want to get my hands on but I’m not a dumbass, i have to wait for them to make the first move and then it’s fair game.” she just needed to feel the rush before going in for another line so in the meantime she took a drink from her cup, the burn of the alcohol barely even burned since they had started drinking earlier. “the results were so fucking stupid, how did i get a lower grade than arisa? she’s a fucking twat who can’t even get her life straighten out. she’s a fucking mess,” silver couldn’t believe the grading system and her only thought was, “i bet she’s giving whoever came up with it good head because i don’t think she ever gotten an a in her life.” rubbing her nose slightly before she leaned back, her head dropped to the couch as she thought about his offer. well, she doesn’t usually get high and do homework, she’s too obsessed to risk having a bad grade but maybe just once wouldn’t hurt. “silva, you got yourself a deal but i’ll have to see if i can do ap work while being a kite. usually when i get fucked up i’m not thinking about math and shit.”
𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 unless they were getting high . but in a way , that’s what worked for them , a simplicity to it . an excuse to throw himself down into the pit he seemed to desire . ⏤ unable to help the laugh that fell from his lips as he rubbed at his nose again . the burning still prevalent . ❛ have you always been this interested in my love life ? ❜ cassidy tilted his head to the side and narrowed his eyes at the girl . more so joking around than anything else . he wasn’t really into talking about things about himself , he’d rather make a joke about it . really , he didn’t think his business was anyone else’s . to be fair , he didn’t share much of anything with anyone . even his friends found it hard to get to the real in depth things from him . it didn’t even matter that the subject wasn’t a sore subject . he just wasn’t a sharer . ❛ really ? i never would’ve taken you for the kind of person that won’t sometimes make the first move . i would’ve thought you’d be all about the ballsy move . ❜ still keeping things lighthearted . he sat back in his chair , following her lead with the drink as he grabbed his own and took a sip . ❛ top three people you got your eye on , go ! ❜ he continued to laugh along with her words before she brought up arisa . leaning forward in his seat , he pointed at her with the same hand that held the bottle of alcohol . ❛ hey , give arisa a little more credit . we’re all a fucking mess and no one has their life together . even the people that think they have their lives together , they don’t . ❜ there was a time when cassidy defending his ex - girlfriend would’ve been a laughable offense but now it was second nature . besides , he truly believed that arisa deserved more credit than silver was giving them . ❛ don’t worry , if you’re tutoring me . . . you won’t have to worry about anything being ap . you’ll only need half the brain power to help me with my level of math . ❜

Yovani sipped her drink and leaned back against the wall. She looked over at the person standing next to her and hummed. “Sorry I didn’t hear you what was that?” She asked and then sipped her drink again before giving them her full attention.

she didn’t need to be asked twice when it came to a little fashion show , even if she’d changed her major then there was something about shoes and clothes that would never get old . reaching out instinctively to grab his hand as she pulled him towards her room , the door closing behind them as she gestured towards the foot of her bed . “ okay , sit down . you have to close your eyes so when you open them you’re seeing me for the first time in all my glory , “ she insists with a wide smile , waiting for him to take a seat as she turned to rustle around in the bag . “ no peeking , “ she demanded in a bossy tone , something that wasn’t really unusual as she got out her new shoes and stood up , swapping her current ones over so she could put on the pink heels , pulling to tie them on her legs . standing upright she pulled the hem of her dress to tug it over her head , hands on her hips as she stood there in her underwear and the shoes . it was more playful in nature , a little circuit breaker that she thought he would find silly and distract him from whatever was on his mind ( she had a few ideas about what it might be considering their recent texts ) . “ you can look now , i had to make sure all the attention was on the heels . “
𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦 , cassidy couldn’t help but laugh when she told him to sit down . following orders , he sat on the end of the bed , prepared to see the new shoes she had purchased . they both knew that cass was no fashion expert but he knew she liked clothes and shoes , that she liked fashion . so he wanted her to feel excited when she went out and got new shoes or new clothes . he wanted to find an interest in the things that she enjoyed , even if he didn’t know much about any of it . at least he knew she was enjoying herself and that made him enjoy himself as well . ❛ but why would i have to close my ey⏤ ❜ he started before nodding and agreeing with her , ❛ okay , okay i’ll close my eyes ! i’m not looking , i promise . ❜ at first he didn’t understand why he’d have to close his eyes for her to put shoes on but he was in for the dramatic reveal . squeezing his eyes shut hard enough that his nose crinkled , cass asked if he could open his eyes before she gave him the clear despite the fact that his eyes hadn’t been closed all that long . what could he say ? he was impatient . once she said he could look , cassidy opened his eyes , his mouth falling open due to the surprise . quickly replaced with a smile , he brought his index finger up to his chin and tapped as if in deep thought . playing it up . ❛ hmm , the shoes are alright . ❜ the brunette said nonchalantly , a shrug following suit but it didn’t last long before he smiled again and stood up to walk towards her . ❛ no , i like them , really . maybe even love them . ❜ cass smiled , tilting his head to the side as he reached her and took her hand in his , raising it up to spin her like he was getting the full effect of the heels before moving closer and placing his hands on her waist . ❛ but i gotta be honest , i don’t know if your plan to get all the attention on the heels worked . ‘cause this getup right here , ❜ cass glanced down at her attire before looking back at her , the smile still there . ❛ it’s pretty distracting . ❜
