Preparations were always hard. But the worse was long done. Now it was only make up that was left. Tonight's Friday night. The Friday night. Where me, Michelle and Tina finally got ready for our girls night out. We planned that date for so long - Prepared for so long. The parties theme at our local club was "warrior". So the girls and me obviously had to go all overboard. It didn't matter if we went overdressed or too hard. This was and is going to be some quality time. We had so much fun putting together our costumes. Even tho it was still obvious they were part dresses still.
Tina's get up was leaning more for a samurai. Shoulderpats, chest plate - yet still revealing, and a kimono type dress - also still revealing.
Michelle was more inspired by knights. Her dress was complement nicely by a chain top and some more sliver plates on her arms and legs. As well as a cute half helmet with a gracious yellow feather. Overall not too revealing, but the dress was still short enough to almost pop her butt out.
I on the other hand? I went for something more primal. Like a hunter. A hunter you'd see in a deep forest in the stone ages. I knew all the fur would bite me in the ass at the club, but it was worth it, of course it wasnt all fur. Just a big patch of fur over my shoulder. The rest? A sweet brown dress, showing off my thighs and what was still visible of my collarbone. I even went so far and got myself a necklace with sharp teeth and some Ambers. Not sure if either were real. It was second hand. I put on some last details for my make up. Painting some face markings.
We were now ready to go.
"Wait! Hold up", Tina basically shouted out, as Michelle grabbed her heels. We all looked at Tina. She held up her arms and looked at us with a devious smile.
"We have to get a shot in, just to celebrate"
Michelle shook her head. "Come on, Tina. It's not that pricey at the club."
I looked between the two. Sighing with a smile: "But we've got to celebrate. Now that Tina's moving away."
Tina jumped up, like a kid, begging over and over. "Pleaaaaase - for me? This once, Michelle?"
Michelle was never fond of drinking before hand. Drinking in general even, only on special occasions.
Michelle places her heels back down. Giving up, for Tina's sake. Tina giggled and turned back to the kitchen. Smacking three shot glasses on the table like she's a bartender. A samurai bartender. Michelle and I smirked with Tina. When she pulled put her vodka, our eyes widen. This really was a special occasion. It was her 10 Liter vodka bottle, that she never opened. That shit cost her a fortune.
We watched as Tina opened the bottle, it emitted a cracking sound. Yes. Freshly open. It was untouched. Until now. She carefully shifted the bottle, trying to hit the shot glasses. It already made her look like she was drunk, spilling the vodka left and right. We all giggled. Tina let out a more nervous one. I couldn't watch her struggle any longer. So I held the two glasses up to the bottles head. Making it easier to pour. Michelle took the last glass and also then held it under the head. Now all three were full and each placed in a hand. We looked at each other.
"To Tina", Michelle said, holding up the small glass up and to our middle.
"To Tina." We all said out like a record. Drinking it in one go. Nothing at first. But then a weird taste emerged. I wasn't really used to pure vodka. Michelle, not at all. She coughed. But quickly swallowed her cough as quick as it came. We all chuckled together again.
"I could go for another one... now that it's open...", the bottle owner said, swaying her hip from side to side.
"No." It came out like a choir from us.
"We gotta get there before 8, otherwise, who knows how full it'll be tonight", I said, already going for the small hallway to grab my heels. Tina soon following with Michelle.
The streets were quiet. Some passerbys still on their way to wherever. We had to pass through a small patch of forest. It was lit. Michelle would have driven. If she wouldn't have drunk something. Michelle struggled in her highheels. Almost tripping every meter due to the uneven ground. So me and Tina went to each of her side. Supporting her. We finally reached the club. A big snake already formed upfront.
Tina scoffed. "Great. Are we too late already? It's not even 8 yet."
As we approached I looked at the snake of people. They didn't move at all. As we stood there at the end now too, I noticed that they didn't even open up yet. A quick glance at my phone showed me, that it was just 7:55. "We're not late, we're even too early-"
I was cut off by Michelle pointing out the variety of costumes. Tina joining in. I looked up. Yes. We were definitely not overdressed. We fit right in.
"This one's definitely a cosplayer", Michelle said.
"A good one at that", Tina chuckled. I turned my head. Looking at who they were talking about. A woman, must be around our age. She didn't dress revealing at all. It was a full set of armor. Maybe that was foam. Who knows.
I chuckled out: "Are we underdressed?"
We all laughed at that.
Finally it was time. And exactly on the clock, the security guy finally let the people in. Another one arrived, helping out, due to the long snake. He must have been waiting anyways.
After a good 15 minutes, we were up. Showing our ID, the insides of our small bags, pockets. I was good to go. Michelle too. "That's gonna be a great night", said one of the security guards as he checked Tina's matching bag. Giving it her back, she smiled at him. She was also good to go.
We turned to her. Confused. She caught on to our mimics. "Oh. Just a couple of bucks."
Inside the party hasn't fully started. No one was yet on the dance floor. More like trying to get settled and drunk enough to try and dance. We grabbed a table. Looking over the room. After some talk about Tina's plans for her new apartment she got silent. We were silent. We already told her so many times that we'll miss her. She knows that. I hope she knows that.
"I'll be right back"
She said. Turning away.
"Where are you going?", I asked her. Having to talk louder due to the booming music and her now being a bit further away.
She mouthed something that neither me or Michelle heard. Michelle shrugged. I looked around again.
"Well. Guess I should leave this shithole too, like Tina."
Michelle furrowed her eyebrows at my comment. "No you won't. Who am I gonna ball my eyes out with at the McDonalds in the drive in, after I had another shitty relationship?"
I look at Michelle surprised with a smirk. "So you admit your ex was a douche?" She rolls her eyes. Not saying another word about that topic: "just don't leave. It's already enough that Steelheaded-Tina is moving away."
Speaking of her, she finally returns. With three neon green, toxic, probably so unhealthy cocktails in her hands. She places them down in the middle of the table. A smirk so wide it's almost unsettling. It's so obvious that she really wants this night to be great. We start sipping on them. Talking about God knows what. Eventually we decided to make our way to the dance floor. Tina wasn't quite done with her drink yet. Still half way. Michelle and I already ready to go.
"Guys wait-", Michelle said, "I'll make a break for the bathroom, Tina, you better zip that unholy brewery up so we can dance after."
I look at Michelle, worried. "Want me to tag along?" Michelle shook her head. "Nah, I'm good."
With that she left. A man and a woman approached us, not long after. They started talking to me and Tina. The man seemed especially interested in Tina.
The woman turned to me. Leaning in closer to my ear after I couldn't understand her first try to talk to me.
"Do you have a tampon?" "Oh yeah"
I said. I always had one. Especially at a party. You never know. I open my bag, searching for it, in the corner of my eye, I spotted how Tina and the guy faced the dance floor. The guys hand on the table. I looked back at the now found tampon and gave it to her. She thanked me. Turning away to reach the bathroom. I looked back at Tina and the guy. They now faced each other again. He was obviously flirting, judging by his face and Tina's reactions. I couldn't hear them at all. It was too loud.
Michelle came back. Rolling her eyes at Tina and her new found partner for tonight. She was as amused as me. But deep down we were both still worried. The guy invited Tina to dance. She said yes, as they both went to the dance floor, we quickly stepped on it too, keeping a close eye on Tina.
Everything went fine up until a bit later. We noticed Tina being more tipsy. More unfocused. I gave Michelle a frown, she also caught up to my sightings. As we looked back where Tina and the guy just were, we were surprised in to see it now vacated by another person.
Our dance came out a abrupt end. Quickly glancing around the room. We spotted them. He tried to pull Tina out of the club, to the exit. Through the mass we pushed ourself through. I was first who made it out, pulling Tina to me. She almost crashed down, if it weren't for Michelle coming up in the right moment to support her as well.
The guy looked at us. Obviously distraught by us intervening. "I just wanted to get her some air."
Michelle and I looked at him. "Yeah right, fuck off." I scoffed out loud. Security already noticing the situation.
"Everything okay?"
We turned our heads to the security guard. Explaing what happened. The guard pulled the guy aside. Telling us to still get Tina outside and let her sit with us until he investigated the guy.
Indeed we sat. On a bench. Waiting. Another security guard was nice enough to give us a bottle of water. Which we made Tina drink, even tho she said she doesn't need it. After a while the other guard came back out. With a sigh he tried to tell us in a most neutral way, that he found some knock out drops a hidden pouch of the guys costume. I tried to remember. Yes. When the guy was at our table, Tina wasn't don't with her drink yet. Only before she hit the dance floor she drank. Shit.
The guy tells us to get Tina home. Maybe call a cab. If her state worsens then maybe even a ambulance. He also told us he'll make sure the police knows about that guy, and he won't ever get in again. No matter the outcome of what the police says. He asked for our numbers, in case the police has any further questions in the coming days.
With that, we were let go.
We phoned the cabs. All of them said they couldn't make it in less than an hour. So we decided to walk ourselves. We'd be home faster. We were three people. But only one completely out of it. This was a quiet town, we told ourselves. The woods were lit, so it was okay, we told ourselves. We walked.
As we reached the woods, Michelle couldn't really walk and support Tina at the same time. So after a few meters she decided to take her heels off. We were slower. But steady. Tina was being held steady.
Now that we were slower, I took in the sounds of the night. The sounds of the dark forest. The chirping of the crickets. The owl hooing. And the slight fresh breeze pushing against us. At least my fur covered shoulder wasn't getting cold.
I looked at Michelle and Tina. Tina almost asleep, yet still walking. Michelle was exhausted. Her face a bit pained from the heel-less walking. I faced back at the path. I tried to focus on what was ahead of us. Our surroundings. But... was I getting deaf? I can still clearly hear Michelle and Tina walking. But I didn't hear any cricket. No owl. The wind was still there. I felt as if the air got heavier. The owl started hooing again. Maybe I was just tired, too unfocused.
We kept walking. Half way there. The lights in the woods path, were still lit. I glanced at my watch again, as Michelle also stopped walking, taking a break. 11pm. As I waited for Michelle to gather her strength again, Tina woke up slowly from her half asleep state. Being all giggly and seeming like a high person. I took a deep breath in. Focusing on my surroundings. We have to get her to safety. The crickets and owl were still at it. Then, a crack. Silence. I assumed the animals would start again, but, the owl took flight. Flying over and away from us. I felt the aid get heavy again. I felt nervous.
"Can we keep walking?" I said, almost stuttering. Almost begging Michelle. Tina jumped off and away from our arms. "Let's camp!"
Michelle rolled her eyes. "No Tina, we can camp at your place. Where we should be right now."
Tina wanted to say something, but we were cut off by a net being launched at me and Michelle. We were trapped. Tina chuckled as she looked at us. "Spidermaaaaaaan"
Michelle was the first one to try and rip open the net, followed by me. "Looksy! I see you, handsome!", Tina cooed, she was turned away from us, pointing into the tree line, where the net came from. Our eyes already somewhat used to the dark, spotted a shape. A man? Michelle now engaged in trying to rip apart the net even more. I looked at the figure, trying to see them better. But it moved all of the sudden, launching himself with a uncanny jump towards the free standing Tina. Snatching her right up. She was pulled into the bushes. We heard it all rustle. "Oooh- manly man-", Tina cooed again, the silhouette of them indicating, she's tracing his stomach.
I helped Michelle. The net seemed unbreakable. Our initial shock calming down slowly, making us finally able to talk. "Oh my fucking god- TINA RUN!"
Michelle yelled. She was in my vision, I couldn't see what she saw. What happened with Tina or who that was.
"That is not a man!" She kept yelling.
"But he's so-" a loud scream emitted from Tina. I pushed Michelle aside as we both yelled out for her. Who or whatever it was, I pushed Tina against a tree. It's form seeming to ram its hips into her. Her screams were parallel with its thrusts. I panicked. Digging under the net with my bare hands. Michelle joined in, but she mined away the dirt with her heel.
"Wait we have a phone-" I went to grab where my bag was. But the bag was outside the net. I leaned against it, trying to reach it, pulling the hard working Michelle with me. She was caught off guard by my sudden move, making her drop. "Hey!"
No matter how much I tried, I couldn't get to my bag. Even when I pushed so hard against the net, it left markings on me. Michelle caught on to me, reaching for her bag that she wore. Pulling out her phone. "THIS MOTHERFUCKER!" She starred at her screen. Empty. Trying to shut it on again, but it shut right back down before 911 could even be dialed. In a fit or more rage and desperation she smashed her phone on a rock. It shattered on the third try. She used the now smashed phone to cut the net. I took a shard as well and also tried to cut it. The yelling and screaming from Tina has stopped. Whatever it was, it wasn't human and it growled in relief.
I made it, I cut through. I quickly squeezed myself through the still somewhat smal gap I made. I ran, a trident was launched at me. Thankfully not piercing me as a tree was there, making me pinned up by the neck against it. My head was too big to try and squeeze my way out, and the trident was launched to deeply into the tree. Michelle had squeezed out too, running for me, trying to undo the trident holding me hostage. My eyes widen, the creature walked up to us. In the dim light, I myself saw, that that was no human. No animal. But a creature. Otherworldly. It wore what seemed to helmet and armor. I screamed out. Altering Michelle.
She tuned her head. I pushed her. "MICHELLE RUN-"
Michelle looked back at me, unsure. But I pushed her again. So she ran. The creature running after her now. Knowing I was pinned. I pushed against the trident again, my sweaty palms making it difficult to hold on. Or it was just launched to deep. Or both. I looked back at where Michelle had ran to. Only to see that the creature had caught up to her. Having her pinned down. She was gasping, crying. It had her pinned by the hip. I panicked again, as it kept smashing against her hips in a unholy force, making her cry and beg, I turned around, facing the tree and pushing my neck against the trident. Thank god it wasn't sharp. I pushed and pushed. It hurt so much, but I did it, I fell back, the top of the trident scraping against my exposed shoulder and arm. The furred shoulder was fine. I didn't mind the blood. I picked up the trident, looked into the direction Tina was, I couldn't belive my eyes.
She was dead. Her thigh, and neck bruised and bloodied. Only then realising, that her body and head didn't add up. It twisted her head and broke her neck.
I took my eyes off her, facing to Michelle and that... creature. I quickly ran towards them, at first it didn't seem to notice me. But as he did, shortly before I could react in time, he got up, I quickly jolted the trident to the side, falling a bit on Michelle. In the short second I laid on her, my head next to hers, it seemed she was still breathing, but barely.
The creature tried to get ahold of the trident. Grabbing it, and pulling it away from me. But I held it firmly. It started to slip from my hands as it used more force. So I quickly pulled my legs up and kicked against the tridents pole, stabbing it at it with my full force. It didn't hit him directly, but a spot that wasn't covered by its armor. It bled. Green. Neon green. As it tried to recover from its injury, I ran. Following the lights, I noticed heavy stomps behind me. They were quick. Close. I didn't dare look behind me. I knew it was... that.
I decided in a frenzy, that maybe jumping between trees might slow it down. So I went off rail, going zick zack between the trees. It seemed to help. For a while. I was still close to the paths lights, just enough so I could see. Just my luck that I spotted a axe in front of me. I abruptly stopped, grabbed it, and swung out. It jolted back, I almost hit it. Almost.
It roared out, angry, I flinched, but still held the axe steady. I once again tried to launch it at him, several times in a span of seconds. It nicked him twice. It growled and roared again, getting more and more agitated, out of no where it kicked me off my legs, making me fall down, before I could react, it grabbed my axe, as well as me, I hit a tree while I stood, a loud thuck boomed next to my ear. The axe was at my neck. I felt out a shaky gasp. I tried to look behind me, but my head was quickly pushed into the tree by its hand. The other toying with my underwear before ripping it off fully, with a single yank.
It got all close. Shoving my hips upwards and off the ground. It didn't matter to it, that it hurt me in that position. My spine felt over stretched. As well did my stomach and soon something else.
I felt its hips shuffle around, the armor plate in front of its crotch scooting over to so he could insert its otherworldly cock. No warning, no lube, no spit. That thing tore me apart with one shove. I screamed out, so high pitched you'd think I was in a Opera trying to destroy a glass. But my high pitch was soon replaced by deep screams, gasped screams. I was trying to get air. My one arm, I pressed against the tree, trying to not get myself killed whenever he pushed back in and could break my neck by this position he had me. The other was at his thigh, rather my fingertips, trying to prevent him from going to rough or too deep. Which was a lost cause. He, whatever he was, was too strong.
He kept pushing and pushing, his speed and force altered from time to time. Already making me see starts. I was already exhausted. Its grip on my head was now a tiny bit more gentle. Letting me look down. There I saw a green-white hued liquid. Which must be what I was thinking. It slowed. As it did so, my hip jolted from all that he's put me through. But to him, it must have been like invitation to keep going. He yanked me around. Facing him, still off the ground. He disposed of the axe by throwing it on the ground.
Before I could try to kick him, punch him, or anything, he held me up, in the air. No tree I could support myself on now. My hips hovered over his. And he let them crash down on his. I whimpered out again, it didn't hurt as much anymore. My fists were on his chest, I was still trying to push him away. As his hips kept rolling against mine, his clawed hand reached up to the brim of my dress, ripping it off. My boobs jiggling intensly with every deeper and faster thrust. I still pushed against him, he grabbed me by the waist and hip, his large hand being able to hold a, to him smaller creature, up like that. I saw the lit path upside down. He kept up his pace, even going rougher. Weirdly enough it felt so good, so good I let out a long restrained moan. No. I can't enjoy this.
But this feeling. Being stretched, filled out fully... the way he hits every spot. Another moan escaped my lips. My fists, now unclenched, grabbing at his stomach armor. His pace picked up. Thinking I'm trying to tell him to speed up. With that my body shivered throughout, I quickly sat myself up again on his hip, one of my hands grabbing at his shoulder. His monstrous pace not decreasing.
I leaned my head against the crook of his neck. The corners of my eyes turned black. And I screamed as I came undone on him. As I painted the green-white hued liquid on the ground with my own as well.
He still kept up the pace, not letting me recover. I insides clenched around his cock, I needed to recover but I couldn't. He wouldn't let me. He now placed his arms on my shoulder. Pinning me to him as he needed to get his rut out. I moaned and whimpered against his neck, everything went more dark by each push. I didn't recognise anything anymore. Just how he felt in me. How he pushed his seed deeper and further up. I didn't know how many times he came. How long he's been going at it.
I woke up again. I was dropped down somewhat gently on the ground. Sat up on the damn tree. I looked down at myself. As he stood before me. Whenever I moved a muscle, as I tried to get up, a big drop of his green-white cum emitted from my pussy. It even appeared that my stomach was more bloated. My thighs being covered in all that liquid. I looked up at him, behind his head, were the trees heads, exposing the now dawning morning sun. Its been that long!?
I watched as he picked up the axe, then me. Me? I was swung over his shoulder. My stomach pressed against it, making more cum blurt out. He walked deeper into the woods. I was too weak to do anything. Too exhausted. He stopped, I looked over his shoulders. My eyes widen at the sight. A otherworldly craft. A vehicle. A ufo? A ufo. And he carried me inside. Setting me down on a chair in the cockpit, putting on what seemed to be seat belts. "Mate", it said in a scratchy growling voice. He turned away from me and started his ship.
My heart stopped. That sure was a night I won't ever forget.

Rio & Buster Pt.1
Rio: Is anyone awake/alive in your room and do they want a coffee
Buster: I am, though I was considering going out for coffee before anybody else is awake/alive
Rio: I donāt think anyone else from last night is going to be up to facing town today
Rio: so I see the appeal
Buster: So come on, get ready to go with me
Rio: You donāt have to ask me and ruin your peace
Rio: barely out of your birthday, you have time to be spoilt yet, I wonāt tell
Buster: It was more of a command, and since, as you just pointed out, itās basically still my birthday, you arenāt entitled to refuse
Rio: Alright š as I did entirely walk into that one
Rio: Iāll go try to find my things and hope they arenāt stuck under some dead/asleep girl
Buster: I could walk back into my costume if you require any more convincing than that, there isnāt exactly much to it, Iād beat you in the race for first even with the head start Iāve given
Buster: Finders keepers, it means you may well luck out on your own shit but Nancyās remains up for grabs
Rio: You certainly could but I donāt think you could then walk out of the front door, not in the daylight
Rio: Good thing I already lost the wig, a few designer items is one thing, canāt have her thinking I want to take her life
Buster: A dare if Iāve ever heard one
Buster: Iām relieved, yeah, not the plus one I invited
Rio: Obviously, though itād be as much of one to be seen out with you so canāt say Iām not playing fair
Rio: Yeah, she mentioned you werenāt friends right now, repeatedly
Buster: I can say itād be an honour and a privilege for you to be seen out with me in any state of dress or undress, with a straight face and everything
Buster: and that of course we arenāt friends, we never have been, sheās my sister, itās a different category entirely
Rio: It isnāt your straight face anyone would be thinking about
Rio: That we can agree on though, entirely different and much more complicated
Buster: Or looking at, I know
Buster: Last night she made things very uncomplicated, simple, in fact
Rio: Sheer dumb luck
Rio: I can be glad for you, whilst I work up to faking I am for her
Buster: Hard work combined with a genetic lottery
Buster: Are you sure? You werenāt up to your usual standard of deception when I last saw you
Rio: Deception makes it sound sordid
Rio: Turning up to a party to be a bitch to the hostess might be standard here but itās not really my style
Buster: Obviously, I chose it to make everything sound less boring than it was at the time and yet again is as we relive it in your previously mentioned daylight
Rio: Well, it couldāve just been your bodypaint reflecting off the lights
Rio: but now youāve confirmed otherwise, you didnāt exactly look thrilled yourself, when I last saw you
Buster: Because I wasnāt, babe, and what do I have to gain by keeping that a secret from you, then or now
Rio: Nothing, of course
Rio: you were the birthday boy, you understand my surprise at the state of affairs
Buster: Not really, given that the state of affairs were a joint party with my twin who couldnāt have been more thrilled by said event and a problem which isnāt shared canāt be halved, so unfortunately it was only the limelight that was
Rio: Sheās always been more easily pleased
Rio: Sorry your birthday was shit, though
Buster: She isnāt playing with a full deck, intellectually, it stands to reason
Buster: whereas I am, and as a result, Iāll have many more birthdays she isnāt going to be capable of ruining
Rio: I can toast to that, with a coffee, the bottle that your sister is cradling doesnāt look appealing
Buster: Water or an empty glass is bad luck, coffee shouldnāt make things any worse than they already are, I donāt think
Rio: Itād be fucked up if I accidentally cursed you
Rio: will have to double check, not fancying risking it myself
Buster: Get in touch with grandad, itās his job to be an expert
Rio: I know he wouldāve called you yesterday, the hangover today is practically compulsory and youād be in no fit state to chat shit with then
Buster: Arguably, Iād be in a better state for it, but I donāt have a hangover because it wasnāt my 30th
Rio: If he wanted a properly captive audience, perhaps
Rio: You know what I mean, you arenāt as rough as you should be
Buster: Neither are you, especially after being forced to act as Nancyās captive audience, oblivion was deserved and owed to you
Rio: I mustāve been in the bathroom when it was handed out, I donāt know
Buster: You know, but donāt worry, I wonāt in turn force you to tell me
Rio: If it was the usual sob story, I would, you could delight in my tragic love life
Buster: Wrong twin, Iād take no delight in hearing about your boyfriends, ex or otherwise
Rio: Delight, torture, itās a fine line
Rio: but thereās nothing to report
Buster: Report how much longer youāre going to keep me waiting instead, thereās an equally fine line for anticipation
Rio: Youāre impatient, therefore blatantly single
Buster: Iām always single
Rio: I know but itād be presumptuous to not indulge in the catching-up chitchat we didnāt have time for last night
Buster: Small talk is just that, it limits
Rio: So be generous and give me 10 more minutes and we can talk big
Buster: 5 minutes
Rio: Suit yourself, itās your honour on the line when you have to be seen with me
Buster: Suit yourself if you arenāt going to even try with a counter offer of 7
Rio: 7 Ā½ is what Iād ask for
Buster: So ask
Rio: Or I just take 7 Ā½ minutes, and you canāt even be mad because you were expecting me to take 10
Buster: I wouldnāt be mad, Iād be proactive and come find you
Rio: See, now I know any threat to leave without me is empty, could take 15
Buster: The threat, were I to make one, would be that Iād carry you downstairs, ready or not
Rio: That does sound awful
Buster: Donāt take 15 and you wonāt need to find out
Rio: NotedĀ
Buster: [A location he wants to take her to for this date] stops serving breakfast at [a time like midday which it is nowhere near rn weāre just saying it to be sassy]
Rio: Omg, hi grandad! š
Buster: Iād happily go with him if he was around, as it stands, youāll have to do
Rio: [come downstairs, so youāre not taking 15 minutes here]
Buster: [taking her wrist when sheās on the last step as if he has to literally drag her out of this house because sheās so reluctant and has been taking a thousand years but we know why really]
Rio: [dramatically gasp like you are about to fall down this last step and heās gonna let you hit the deck because likewise]
Buster: [obvs steadying her as dramatically like she is falling/gonna without his help because simply must]
Rio: [shaking our head so we donāt just LOOK at you without saying or doing anything here]
Buster: [not at all basically pushing her up against the front door because itās saucy af, ONLY because yāall gotta go rn immediately of course]
Rio: [making excuse me kind of noises and whipping around to face him so your back is against said front door, brushing some bodypaint remnant off his neck, rubbing it between your fingers and tutting like see āimpatientā]
Buster: [you have no reason to be touching her back, sir, but we all know damn well heās touching her hair like so so glad this wig hasnāt made a reappearance, despite the fact youāve already said as much and sheās already said itās lost + a look like you too because she didnāt leave it the 15 mins so clearly wants to go too]
Rio: [rolling your eyes in amusement, as if weāre not also bright red, knowing heās thinking about said wig āI was not dyeing my hair, not even for your 18thsā pluralizing as if we remotely would for Nancy ever, reach back and open this door, clearly have to prove you can maintain eye contact nbd]
Buster: [āSave it for my 21stā with the same amused vibe about her pulling a retro Rihanna as we canāt dwell on how hot or not that would be as a move rn, deliberately not including Nancyās bday in this because heās too done to share another birthday party with her but more importantly because we all know you werenāt making costume effort for her, it goes without saying that heās also maintaining said eye contact while heās using his body weight and their ridiculous proximity to push her through the then open door]
Rio: [āIāll try to remember, if itās a birthday commandā like oh okay birthday boy āif Iām not [wherever Nancy has already said she wants to go for her 21st, probably skiing or some posh nonsense]ā a look like God help me, nudging him back as heās pushing you through the door, not hard enough to stop him but just because]
Buster: [āIāll let her be the one to waste her birthday privilegesā because what a flop move Nancy as per, he isnāt gonna ask this gal to book into a hair salon of all the things he could demand lol, giving her his own look thatās v unimpressed + reinforces could never be me, with a shrug that weāre also using to push her back a little bit]Ā
Rio: [a noise like yeah, that sounds like her āmore concerned about mine nowā like excuse me, my own 18th to care about first, walking forward so you stop touching each other for no reason]
Buster: [āWhat are you doing, if youāre not [stealing Nancyās 21st idea to piss her off but doing it less basic because youāre not a flop, gal]ā gotta act like weāre only asking the question to shade Nancy/encourage you to steal her thunder and not because weāre interested/want an invite]Ā
Rio: [looking at him like because thatās feasible āmy friends arenāt paying to get pissed up a mountainā not giving you a response ācos weād still be with the boyfriend who dumps us for OFs in a while, so clearly doing something with him]
Buster: [ātheir lossā but sarcastically because obvs we donāt think itās a peak fun time either, heās a sporty boy if he was there heād ski, sis]Ā
Rio: [ātell me about itā like weāre devastated too and couldnāt think of a million better things to do ācold enough at home by my birthdayā]
Buster: [telling her about when you have been skiing because of course you have as if sheās really asking āDonāt pick a party theme involving costumes and youāll be fineā dangerous to remember what you were both wearing last night but he shamelessly is thinking about that mermaid fit, how could he not be]Ā
Rio: [āitās like being chatted up last night all over againā ācos I dread to think the quality of that chat lol; likewise now thinking about that donāt mind us]
Buster: [gotta lol at what she said though so itās not blatant heās fuming about her being chatted up by all those flops, donāt wanna think about that, thank you]Ā
Rio: [āwhyād you fall out then?ā getting back in step with him, gesturing like beside the obvious because we all know what sheās like]
Buster: [āDidnāt she tell you?ā with a tone that makes it clear we find it impossible to believe she wouldnāt have because sheās that bitch who loves to both overshare and complain/play the victim and feel well hard done by even though sheās actually in the wrong]Ā
Rio: [āit werenāt exactlyā¦ transparentā because god knows what she said, if it was true, if it made any sense, weāre not going by that, an eyebrow raise to convey this]
Buster: [āIt never isā because if sheās not a drunken mess sheās a dyslexic one and it isnāt that sheās trying to be a Taylor style mastermind, or itās all of those]Ā
Rio: [a noise like yeah, fairplay ādonāt usually bother you thoughā looking up at him]
Buster: [ādoesnāt it?ā looking at her like are you sure about that, because it definitely does and has always wound him up lol]Ā
Rio: [doing the ehh hand wave thing āalright, you wouldnāt let it ruin your good time thenā]
Buster: [āWell, last night she went too farā because you did hun]Ā
Rio: [just looking at him, concerned because genuinely]
Buster: [giving her a look back to get across that we donāt wanna talk about the James of it all because the Chlo of it all is also linked to that and he wants to go there even less]Ā
Rio: [obviously not pushing it because not the move, shrugging it off like okay, I understand]
Buster: [āDo you want to talk about what ruined yours?ā because she wasnāt having a good time either, we know]Ā
Rio: [āit werenāt your mates or choice of soundtrackā like I was in a shit mood before I arrived, donāt worry]
Buster: [āI knowā cos you canāt tell me he didnāt notice her arrive and that she was already not in the mood]Ā
Rio: [not being so buzzing on the low he noticed you and you canāt help but smile a little]
Buster: [Do some walking hun before this turns into any more of a moment because heās likewise not gonna force her into having a heart to heart rn]
Rio: [you donāt need to do all that now, you can get to wherever youāre going āweāre not doing takeout, are we?ā because 1. We donāt want to 2. Imagine trying to guess every straggler's coffee order, no tah]
Buster: [āNoā with an almost hilarious amount of feeling there because he doesnāt want to either, the whole point was getting out of the house and leaving those flops behind]
Rio: [the noise equivalent of āgoodā without actually saying the word, just perusing the baked goods casually]
Buster: [he is 1000% the sort of bitch to order for himself and her without consulting her about it, soz gal, thank god you arenāt the total strangers you pretend to be and he does know enough about you that you wonāt totally hate his pick]
Rio: [itās the sort of thing weāre SO into, even if we have to protest otherwise in amusement for the look of the thing āare you always like this?ā š as weāre finding the best spot in this cafe for some privacy and cosy vibes, definitely claiming the armchairs/sofa moment with the coffee table instead of a table, tucking our feet up beneath us]
Buster: [āLike what exactly?ā as you donāt know full well, sir, was gonna sit him opposite her for the eye contact opportunities but we always do that and if anyone would sit unnecessarily close to her for no reason, he would, so be next to her on this sofa]
Rio: [just looking down at the lack of space between yāall now like yeah, you know what boy āan observation, not an insultā]
Buster: [āThen yeah, I amā because even though the answer is closer to a no in terms of yāallās vibe weāre projecting that this is who we always are, of course, besides he is always the arrogant bitch who thinks he knows best hence ordering for you whether you like it or not lol]
Rio: [ātake what you can get, huhā like very the family motto of you, I see āyou want me to distract you from your problems with mine then?ā with a OTT sigh like letās do this]
Buster: [āNo, but I thought you might want to take what you can, like I said earlier, a problem shared is a problem halved, allegedlyā as if youāre the last person on earth sheād want to talk to about anything but yāall have to make do]
Rio: [āas weāre both hereā with a āwhat else would we possibly do?ā tone āitās a long story thoughā pushing his drink towards him as itās laid on the table by the barista, like youāll need this, casually brushing your fingers against his before moving your hand away to take your own drink]
Buster: [nod as he takes it because you donāt have anywhere else to be and rushing back home is the last thing either of you feel like doing, cheersing with your drink and hers and taking a drink of whatever espresso based concoction Iām sure he chose]
Rio: [likewise drink some of your own drink before getting into this because not going to kick up a fuss and we obviously like whatever you picked anyway āitās not like you should need three guesses, even nowā like itās obviously a family thing, you know that much about me]
Buster: [āI didnāt realise you were waiting for me to guessā because heās also that bitch whoād think he could get guess right on the first try, even though in this instance you definitely could not, boy]
Rio: [tut like no, give me a minute, sir āif you found out something that could really screw over-ā stopping because Nancy is not going to work for this analogy right now ā-Ava, or your mum, would you tell them, when if they didnāt find out, theyād carry on being okay?ā]
Buster: [āHow okay can they be if theyāre being kept out of the loop on something that could screw them over? Something like that, they deserve to know. Not to mention, if I found out about it thereās a chance somebody else could, it would always be better coming from meā]
Rio: [shake your head āno one else is going to find out, not in this caseā]
Buster: [āIf you can seriously guarantee that, and itād do more harm telling them, maybe donātā]
Rio: [nod like yeah āthatās the conclusion I reached too, it didnāt make my mood any better, thoughā]
Buster: [āIt wonāt, itāll eat you up inside, knowing they do still deserve to knowā very comforting boy, thanks so much]
Rio: [a look like oh, great āwell, thatās brilliant, Busterā]
Buster: [āIām not going to lie to you, who does that help?ā]
Rio: [do a little lol like āme, maybe, boyā]
Buster: [āIf you already canāt handle this youāll crack and tell them, maybe at the worst possible time, so youād both be better off telling them while youāre still relatively saneā again, very nice of you]
Rio: [giving him a nudge like oi āI havenāt lost it yet, Iām not going to, thanks very muchā thinking about how long you were stalked and kept that to yourself]
Buster: [āGood, donātā because thatād be BAD and nobody wants it to be a thing, not even this boy who pretends he cares not for most of this fam rn]
Rio: [āis that the extent of the pep talk?ā like was expecting a bit more from you, bants]
Buster: [āyou just told me you donāt need oneā]
Rio: [āyou can redeem yourselfā gesturing like off you go lol]
Buster: [āwrong twinā like excuse you Iām not the evil one]
Rio: [āI had noticedā like youāre not as bad company, nudging you in a nicer way this time]
Buster: [share something youāre breakfasting on here to prove how nice you are, boy]
Rio: [no need to make eye contact as you eat this food and yet here we are]
Buster: [you definitely donāt need to but here he also is, hence a beat before he speaks and says āI have loads of actually insane girls in my messages, if you ever need somewhere to vent, I probably wonāt even see itā because he canāt just be like you can talk to me if you need to xx ILY so thereās that]
Rio: [āoh tah, Iāll take a lookā putting your hand out for his phone like letās go but then carry on breakfasting]
Buster: [āIt wouldnāt make you feel any betterā because true, these girls are grim and not what he meant so not gonna hand his phone over ever lol]
Rio: [āIāve seen worseā like your texts and DMs will be no worse than mine boy, but obviously not expecting you to actually show us]
Buster: [āof course you haveā because sheās a hot girl so blatantly, but with the tone of thatās not the point]
Rio: [looking at him like ? because we missed the point tbh]
Buster: [a lil headshake because like he said this isnāt gonna cheer either of yāall when you can pretend that youāre both not v attractive instead]
Rio: [raising a brow ācos we donāt get it but okay, not something we need to push ācanāt all be badā lowkey implying you saw him talking to some girls last night]
Buster: [a look like if you say so because can neither confirm or deny they all suck]
Rio: [ācharmerā š because we know theyāre all flops, weāve got eyes and ears]
Buster: [āyouāve met worseā because we know your boyfriend/past boyfriends youāve had is a/are flops Iām sure]
Rio: [āunderstatementā because not about to deny that]
Buster: [absolutely have to order something else she gets no say in to really make that point her exes/current bf arenāt it, excuse us]
Rio: [āyou arenāt going to let me get anything in, are you?ā]
Buster: [āYou shouldnāt need 3 guessesā because no he isnāt lol]
Rio: [smile so big shamelessly ācos you donāt know what else to do or say]
Buster: [do your own smile back because that shit is infectious and youāre not a psychopath but not as big]
Rio: [āItās Liam and Edieā blurt that out so you donāt something else]
Buster: [obviously he wasnāt expecting to be told that and he was expecting it to be about them even less because they are such a happy couple rn and lowkey always, but he can keep the !! off his face because heās that bitch, blatantly trying to work out whatās occurring because she said nobody is gonna find out so it canāt be a cheating scandal or something like that]
Rio: [āLiam, actuallyā attempting to make that make more sense when you see his face, however briefly the confusion is there, ācos you know that was out of nowhere āit was years agoā sounds like you slept with him now]
Buster: [having a drink/food pause while he tries to work out what the hell she means there because doesnāt believe Rio wouldāve slept with Liam, sheās not that bitch āBut you found out recentlyā because clearly so not a ?]
Rio: [nodding, spinning her mug on the table āit took a while to work everything out, be sure, not that I am, itās still soā¦ā trailing off ācos what even]
Buster: [the way he reaches out when sheās spinning that mug and just puts his hand on her wrist because of course he does, itās obvious sheās upset before sheās even said anything, and then doing like a reassuring thumb sweep when she says what she does]
Rio: [doing the thing where you wipe your eyes like Iām fine, Iām fine, even though youāre not actually crying or anything that dramatic right now āI used to get these weird messages, started the summer before we turned 13, lasted about 2 yearsā doing a deep breath ācos it is a long story and youāve never had to tell it before āknowing where I was, what I was doing, that sort of thingā]
Buster: [āUntil they got togetherā because it doesnāt take a genius to work out with her literally telling him the timeline]
Rio: [āin hindsight, itās all obvious, thatās the pointā because exactly]
Buster: [āobvious isnāt the wordā because nobody would see this coming]
Rio: [āyeah, it started and ended on his birthday, worked it outā shrugging like itās not a big deal]
Buster: [āhis birthday?ā because thatās a weird detail, soz Liam]
Rio: [āI kept the messagesā because yeah, we donāt know why either but thatās when we got this surprise message, which weāre finding to show him now āthereās not been any sinceā]
Buster: [Reading all these messages, simply must āWhat the fuckā basically under his breath while he is because how wild and not at all where he thought this convo would go]
Rio: [āI knowā because weāre still processing this āhis sister diedā because doesnāt take a genius to work out the why, even though we donāt know why us]
Buster: [likewise trying to process this āWe donāt know if heās better nowā because that was mentally ill behaviour Liam, we canāt pretend otherwise, soz hun, and only Edie is gonna be the one in the know with the true tea if heās well or NOT WELL these days]
Rio: [āitād been years, Iād forgottenā we definitely hadnāt forgotten but we werenāt actively thinking about it, is what we really mean āI mean, he never did anything really weirdā by which we mean something sexual ācos what we assume and what the vibe is with random internet weirdos]
Buster: [āthis is weird, babeā gesturing at her phone because it is]
Rio: [āyeah but-ā and just looking at him because donāt want to admit the fact Edie wouldnāt side with us, if we brought it up, but you know, we all know that much]
Buster: [looking back at her because it goes without saying he understands all of that which she was communicating with her look, nevertheless, gotta say āBut thereās no time limit on grief, his sisterās still dead and heās with yoursā because itās a valid point, yāall donāt know if heās doing different weird shit now to cope, we know he isnāt but]
Rio: [shaking your head so hard like no no āsheād not put up with thatā because now weāre clearly thinking the worst, however sure weāre trying to sound]
Buster: [āWith what though? We have no idea where her line is or how close he is to crossing it with whatever he could be using as a new coping mechanism since he stopped doing all thisā because you donāt or whatās going on behind closed doors either, obvs]
Rio: [ādonāt make me change my mind when Iāve just made it upā like oh my God, because weāre back into the rock and a hard place we were before weād made up our mind last night and were then in a sad af mood]
Buster: [āTheyāve got a kid togetherā because as close as heāll ever get to outright being like maybe I was wrong to say you shouldnāt tell her, itās okay, sir you didnāt have all the info then, youāre allowed to change your decision]
Rio: [āexactlyā because that works both ways]
Buster: [look at her because yeah okay also valid]
Rio: [resting your head on his shoulder like ffs because literally]
Buster: [āweāll figure it outā idk how you will, boy, but itās your vibe to say that and mean it]
Rio: [āyeah?ā quietly, still on your shoulder]
Buster: [āyeahā with all the conviction ever because heās a child of baze so of course, proactive forever and always]
Rio: [eventually,lift your head up and smooth your clothes and hair down āsorryā patting his shoulder where your head just was for the unspoken thank you too]
Buster: [āDonāt beā again really sincerely because sheās got nothing to apologise for remotely, she doesnāt need the help fixing her hair or clothes but he is for that excuse to touch her, we all know it]
Rio: [āso I look shitā but the way weāre saying it and giving you !! eye contact about it changes the vibe entirely]
Buster: [shaking his head without breaking that eye contact for a single second]
Rio: [āone thing out of this weekendā not really specifying what you mean there but could be as innocent as at least Iām still slaying]
Buster: [order her another coffee like thatāll also make things better but we all know the reality is you wanna stay here longer and itās probably the sort of place that theyād chuck you out if youāre loitering]
Rio: [āgonna be buzzing againā because Iām sure you both got some level of high last night, even though neither of you were smashed, coke isnāt like that]
Buster: [āyouāre welcomeā because youāll need it to deal with Nancyās bs because you canāt just leave without being like hi and bye babes]
Rio: [āI owe you, more likeā because Iām sure you didnāt get him a present ācos youāre not meant to have a clue what he might want and Ali as their auntie wouldāve got something from yāall, obviously]
Buster: [ācourse you donātā shout out to whatever present you got Alison, love you]
Rio: [nod like yes I do ānot got to return the favourā]
Buster: [āyou can owe me for the new skis when you unwrap them on your birthday and return them the day afterā because bants bants]
Rio: [loling ābetter fucking notā like thereād go my excuse for not going]
Buster: [āWhat do you want? I know itās not only [whatever baze are sending, realistically either money or gift cards cos they are rich and busy]ā when you know sheās a sentimental bitch who likes feelsy gifts not just a materialistic one]
Rio: [āI could send you my listā for the bants but weāre also not going to ask for anything seriously because weād feel bad about not getting you anything now āHad to get Nance [some perfume or something]ā because she invited you]
Buster: [āOr you could just think of something right nowā not at all subtle move to get you to think about something else that isnāt the Liam of it all]
Rio: [āDonāt you like surprises?ā]
Buster: [āOh okay, youād rather I surprise youā as if sheās doing her own not at all subtle hint there lol]
Rio: [an expression like not going to say no, even though weāre sure you wonāt really āobviouslyā]
Buster: [ānotedā because Iām definitely gonna have to get him to send you a bday present whatever youāre doing to celebrate, heās that bitch]
Rio: [ācome onā pulling on his hand but not actually getting up, like I need to take you shopping immediately now]
Buster: [amused, acting as if heās gonna arrange for that 2nd coffee he ordered them to be a take out one like okay then]
Rio: [āitās barely belated if we hurryā because we have been briefly distracted here so well done]
Buster: [when youāre for real tempted to actually go because sheās so cute about this]
Rio: [āyou didnāt get nothing what you wanted last nightā]
Buster: [āyou donāt have to take it upon yourself to redeem my shit 18thā]
Rio: [shrug āI couldā like donāt get it twisted honey]
Buster: [š because the ego has amused him but also thereās no lie detected, she easily could]
Rio: [folding her arms like believe me boy, faux grumpy]
Buster: [putting some food into her mouth like a heathen but gotta as if she needs cheering up that badly]
Rio: [ššš for real because any response would be INAPPROPRIATE]Ā
Buster: [literally gonna have to say they bring that 2nd coffee to yāallās table rn because I donāt trust this boy]
Rio: [distraction oāclock thank you kindly barista, swallow that food and move yourself away slightly]
Buster: [at least you can thank said barista for bringing that because your drink would be too hot to take a sip of and I do need you to hush atm sir]
Rio: [me like remember youāre meant to be sad miss maāam āso-ā clearing your throat āI should tell her?ā]
Buster: [think about this logically please and donāt just answer rashly āWouldnāt you want to know?ā]
Rio: [trying to imagine but you donāt have a child with anyone and havenāt had a relationship that serious āonly if he was doing anything to meā]
Buster: [āShe wonāt tell you if he is until you talk about what he did to youā because true Edieās not just gonna be like guess what everyone Liamās a right weirdo because x y z out of nowhere]
Rio: [bite your lip, nod because yes, that is true]
Buster: [āBut I understand the urge to believe his fucked up behaviour towards you is the beginning and end of itā because itās not like he wants Edie to be in peril here either]
Rio: [āthereās no signsā just thinking out loud because obviously we have never considered this until this bombshell ācould be overreactingā]
Buster: [āIt spanned years thoughā like are we overreacting because that is not at all casual and in fact a lot Liam]
Rio: [āhe was a kidā not really enough of an excuse but āmaybe I upset himā]
Buster: [āso were you, what could you have possibly done to warrant any of it?ā]
Rio: [āmaybe I overstepped, was too much?ā re. being nice to his sister and then his grief after]
Buster: [āNo, Rioā using her name for the first time because itās important she listens since sheās not that OTT bitch and we all know it]
Rio: [a yeah well sort of noise but weāre not going to insist ācos not dying for that to be true]
Buster: [āit wasnāt your faultā pulling her gently by both wrists as he turns his body so yāall are facing each other and close af again, in the same manner of listen to me this is important āHowever he reacted to you sending your condolences, thatās all you were doing, you didnāt do anything wrong, you did a kind thingā]
Rio: [properly look at him and take this in, whether or not you fully agree with what heās saying doesnāt matter, youāre still hearing it and taking it in āI donāt understand it if heās doing it again now thoughā because what if he did fully start again, thankfully not]
Buster: [āI donāt understand why he did it in the first place, our parents have a dead sister and they didnāt immediately start stalking anyoneā True but all the mcvickers kids are ridiculously codependent af and weird as we know and probably shouldnāt be used as a good example lol]
Rio: [shrug āGrief isnāt always rational, is itā because Joe is also there as an example of losing it, at least from everyone elseās POV]
Buster: [his own shrug because you do have a point there, you canāt apply rational thought to this, lads and if we are being evil giving baze another baby after the twins and before Ava who died, Iām sure they havenāt always behaved rationally about it, the point being regardless that yāall have already seen different examples of it and know itās different for everybody āI said as much myself before, but that doesnāt give him a free pass to treat you like that and then start a new life with Edie as if he didnāt do any of itā]
Rio: [āIām just going to have to get over it thoughā because yeah, what can you do but at this point, push your drink away like this is a meeting and itās over]
Buster: [āBullshit, however happy they are, or arenāt, now, he used you and your sister to get there, you have to tell her thatā because heās not having that]
Rio: [āIsnāt that what everyone does?ā sans the stalking element being conveyed with a āyou know what Iām sayingā wave of the hand]
Buster: [āNoā because he canāt just casually put aside the stalking element here when he thinks itās not at all at coincidence that Edam is together now āshe needs to know calculated it all isā]
Rio: [āsurely if it was calculated, itād be me not her?ā sounds arrogant but I understand your point āwhy didnāt he try to get with me?ā we know full well you donāt have the answers to that question either but telling Edie is such an uncomfortable prospect weāre doing anything to avoid it being reality rn]
Buster: [āYouāre out of his leagueā said so matter of factly here it makes me cackle because this boy is acting like Liam is fugly instead of looking how he does, but I get it you think heās v strange and that Rio is perfect so ānot to mention on totally different wavelengthsā because true Edam have so much in common meaning yāall donāt at all, and nobody could accuse Liam of faking that for all this time to get with Edie because why and yeah if he was gonna fake a personality heād try and do it for Rio]
Rio: [doing a āha!ā like no Iām not āso he stalked us both and worked out she was more interesting?ā pausing for a sec then doing another shrug like sounds legit ānot great for building my confidence but alright, sureā]
Buster: [āInteresting isnāt the wordā because no thank you āavailable isā not trying to call her a slag but he knows damn well that she wouldāve not been without a bf during that time]
Rio: [ānot a save you need to makeā like itās alright āpoint is, he clearly actually loves herā]
Buster: [āIt doesnāt change the fact he coupled with her for the wrong reasons initiallyā]
Rio: [put your head in your hands and do a big sigh because yeah āfor fuckās sakeā under our breath]
Buster: [putting an arm around her cos so soz this sucks and heās the kind of bitch who has to say this and not just hush]
Rio: [sit yourself back up and shake it off because never trying to be this much of a downer ācanāt do anything ātil Iām home so donāt worryā]
Buster: [push her drink she pushed away back towards her like you might as well drink this then]
Rio: [cheers him again like thatās the vibe]
Buster: [take a drink and a sec because that was a lot of info to take in]
Rio: [raising our brows like I know āso many people I thought it was I need to apologise to nowā like adding this to the to-do-when-home list]
Buster: [āno you donāt, you wouldnāt have suspected them for no reasonā like they mustāve been doing some shady shit/not been very good friends etc to be on the list in the first place]
Rio: [āit makes you a bit paranoid, obviouslyā like idk, itās not like you can rely on what you think, thatās sort of the point]
Buster: [āObviously, that doesnāt mean you didnāt have a point distrusting those specific peopleā because he doesnāt actually think sheās lost her mind then or now]
Rio: [do a half smile at him āyouāre cute, and Iām not having a breakdown so you donāt have to be niceā]
Buster: [āIām not being nice, your boyfriends have just given you such ridiculously low standards that you think I amā]
Rio: [shaking your head like not going to address that lol ānicer than you usually are, I meantā]
Buster: [āIām not having a breakdown either so you can keep your backhanded complimentsā more amused than annoyed though]
Rio: [āIām always niceā like excuse you, this is normal for me, but weāre also amused]
Buster: [āIāll remind you you said always when we get backā because being nice to Nancy this am will be a trial š]
Rio: [š¬ āI might go hit the town insteadā like youāre right, that sounds awful]
Buster: [heās clearly joking but telling her what shops to hit for his bday present she owes him]
Rio: [āyou can pay for the car I send it back inā like okay but I am NOT coming back]
Buster: [just nod like okay cos you know he would]
Rio: [ādonāt let any of your friends take it when they headā]
Buster: [āDonāt do yourself downā like sheās dragging herself and her gifting for that to happen because none of his friends have any taste because rich people donāt lol]
Rio: [folding your arms like youāre fuming ābecause itāll be a gift worth stealing, boyā]
Buster: [a look like not to them, girl, they only want flop things]
Rio: [āIām not just avoiding Nanceā like yeah, Iāve met them all]
Buster: [āme eitherā because agreed]
Rio: [āyou should go do something today that you actually want to tooā tilting your head to the side āgo on, what do you want to do, anything on the tableā]
Buster: [tell her about whatever plans youāve already made whether thatās football or boxing or whatever because heās that kind of person who is always busy with something 24\7 but adding āIf anything was on the table, it goes without saying Iād leave London, I envy you that optionā]
Rio: [āToo bad we canāt swap that easily without noticeā because weāre not trying to rush home now āChristmas break before you know it thoughā]
Buster: [āCowardās way outā are you trying to convince/comfort yourself or her or both of yāall there, boy, cos good luck lol āYeah, blink and itās your birthday instead of mineā because they are pretty close together tbf]
Rio: [āyouāre always alrightā tapping your hand thatās holding your mug against his ābe so busy studying this whole school yearā do a little smirk like oh you nerd āmeanwhile I do have a party of my own to plan, yeahā]
Buster: [āNot so busy Iāll forget to send your present, donāt worryā returning the smirk āIāve already decided what Iām buying youā because of course he has]
Rio: [doing the thing where youāre mid-sip so all you can do is widen your eyes dramatically and put said drink down with as much haste āyou have to let me go then or youāll be getting your present on my birthday insteadā as if heās distracting you to cheat at this non-competition]
Buster: [āI wouldnāt open it until Christmasā like nice try but I simply refuse to steal your bday thunder]
Rio: [āwrong twin, right?ā like Iām catching on]
Buster: [āExactlyā because yep Nancy so would and we all know it]
Rio: [āthe obligatory invite youād both have to have is a good advert for not having a partyā lumping you in like itās not blatant youād be absolutely fine having him there lol]
Buster: [āGranted, itās too late to accuse her of stalking you, but thereās plenty of other plausible reasons to fall out with her, and time toā acting like itās so bants and oh Nancy vibes but heās fuming at her for the James stuff so]
Rio: [can definitely tell itās more deep than her just generally being a messy nuisance but to push looks like you just want gossip and we donāt want that being assumed, just nodding and mm-ing like so true āno chance of her following you to whatever uni you end up getting intoā all the shade, soz girl]
Buster: [āUnless she played the disability card for a pity placeā because they sure did treat dyslexia like one when I went to uni and you definitely would play on it if you did wanna go, thankfully she does not āfortunately, thereās bound to be a bare minimum required even of those students thatād put her offā because we know what youāre like, sis, all the deserved shade]
Rio: [āWhatever one [reel off her besties names, not caring if theyāre right or just posh girl stereotypes] pick, is more likelyā we know youāve peaked and would wanna try and ride that wave as long as you could but youāre defs 1st year dropout vibes, as if I can talk lmao āof course you know exactly what you want alreadyā because the least surprising thing]
Buster: [Defs amused at the posh girl stereotype names that are too accurate for these gals āCome on, whatās the most likely is theyāll hate her long before thenā because tea, youāll never stay friends with them for that length of time, youāve blatantly got a new bestie every 5 secs hun āI always have, you know that about meā weāll all try not to get into that double meaning even though heās obvs giving EYE CONTACT as he says it]
Rio: [when you canāt be blushing about University plans so you just have to act like youāre holding your tongue sassing Nancy any harder and that has you flustered, not believable but there we go, you tried āif youād changed that muchā¦ā because youāve always been that boy āI know what I want, just not entirely sure Uni needs to or does feature in thatā because obviously we have our plans that can be put into motion on our bday]
Buster: [āIām glad you havenāt changed that much yourselfā because sheās that bitch too itās why yāall end up being a power couple like his parents are despite doing it very differently āsitting here and holding my tongue isnāt who I am or ever have much chance of becomingā because he wouldnāt be about it if you were a flop and heād have to let you know, soz]
Rio: [āWho would I change for?ā For the bants of Iām incredible and everyone loves me so much, gesturing at ourselves like hello; but thereās also the unspoken realness of that being a necessity for him and us being aware of that āyou can think and say whatever you want but money talks louder, babeā]
Buster: [do a final cheers before you finish this coffee because she is incredible and money does talk sheās not wrong there either]
Rio: [cheers him back and after a beat āwhen do you have to go [boxing/football/whatever]?ā casually like when are you leaving but not at all]
Buster: [shoutout to the Rolex he gives her because heās checking it rn and obvs answering her, I doubt he has to rush off because he never has to rush anywhere heās always sorted schedule wise]
Rio: [āpoint me in the right direction then?ā gesturing to the door like show me where you shop for my gifting trip]
Buster: [there is no need or excuse for this boy to literally get up and take her to these shops himself but we all know thatās whatās happening, not at all casually expecting her to follow him like come on]
Rio: [obviously we are like lead the way]
Buster: [weāre doing it, you both need the distraction and deserve a nice time]
Rio: [weāre not sorry, you can only bop in an entirely platonic way around these shops]
Buster: [Iām not sorry that Iām imagining a really cute and cliche shopping montage rn]
Rio: [yāall would be having a lovely time, no reason not to and no one to stop you, even if Nancy was awake by now, she would be annoying the people still hanging around the baze gaff]
Buster: [Just his sporty boy plans that heāll be gutted to have to leave for at some point too soon]
Rio: [weāre not at all devvoād, nope]
Buster: [Likewise, but you canāt cancel your plans and admit you wanna stay, sir, yāall arenāt there yet]
Rio: [and you canāt invite yourself so you stay shopping and act like you have no interest in anything otherwise]
Buster: [Hang in there lads, weāve gotta cockblock you for now but it will soon be Christmas and weāll get the moments going again lol]
Rio: [for now, a match time or thereabouts later]
Rio: Did you win?
Buster: I donāt lose
Buster: Did you buy me [a pisstake on whatever perfume she had to buy Nancy]?
Rio: Do you think I was doing my best work there?
Buster: You were doing what you were told, as per, best behaviour
Rio: She knows what she wants, I suppose
Buster: Itās a shame you didn't decide to surprise her with something she wouldnātĀ
Rio: A shame for you
Buster: Us both, itād be as good for you in the long run
Rio: How so?
Buster: You donāt need me to tell you youād be better off on her bad side than you would as her best friend
Rio: Iām not her best friend, or going to be
Buster: I know that, but you could do more to make it obvious how much youād prefer not to be, sheāll always need the clues
Rio: I could start a bitch fight before catching my flight
Rio: bets on one already going on in your house or in the DMs if they pissed off before she awoke
Buster: I canāt condone it, your hair would make you a really easy targetĀ
Buster: and Iām definitely not going to bet against anything like that happening
Rio: Put it up and take out the hoops before, obviously
Rio: Not my first rodeo
Buster: Still
Rio: I donāt know what she did
Rio: but I can tell itās bad and I have no reason to trust her or disbelieve you
Buster: It isnāt her first rodeo either, you wouldnāt need the 3 guesses if I was offering them to you
Rio: What are you going to do?
Rio: Genuine question not sarcasm
Buster: I did what I had to do last nightĀ
Rio: From now then, itāll get better?
Rio: for you, Iām obviously not holding my breath for her taking note or anything
Buster: Thereās no other option, Iām certainly not letting it get any worseĀ Ā
Rio: Good, youāre taking charge
Rio: thereās nothing else you can do, everyone else will do what they will, your sister included
Buster: The same will be true for yours, when you tell her about Liam, all you can do is give her the facts, sheāll do whatever she wants with themĀ
Rio: Yeah, true
Rio: I guess Iām just more concerned with her reaction, as she isnāt in my shit list right now
Buster: Her reaction and the consequences of what she decides to do, yeahĀ
Rio: I know what will happen, or what wonāt
Buster: Yeah, anything else heās made you doubt over the years, thereās none about how Edie will take this, sheās like your mum, giving people second chances long after everyone else has lost count of the actual number
Rio: You say that like itās a bad thing
Rio: Iām not worried about the chance sheāll give him, itāll be the chance I donāt get
Buster: It is, if you donāt know when to stop, or like you said, the wrong people are given the chancesĀ
Rio: You might feel different when it comes to the actual practicalities of cutting your sister off
Rio: you havenāt had anyone in your life like that before, we all have
Buster: Iām not suggesting itās even close to a similar situation, your sister is the one about to get her weakness exploited, mine is the type to exploit people
Rio: You donāt know that, theyāre clearly fine, better than fine and most couples I know
Buster: Theyāre not fine, heās been keeping something huge from her for their entire relationship, involving you her sister
Rio: And youāve already pointed out she isnāt going to see it as huge
Buster: You do though
Rio: Did, maybe
Rio: Iāll be fine
Buster: Again, fine isnāt the word
Rio: Look, forget it, I shouldnāt have bothered you with it
Rio: Iām just on a comedownĀ
Buster: Forget trying to fob me off
Rio: I forgot how annoying you are
Buster: Because Iām the one in the wrong here, sure
Rio: Wait, am I in the wrong or a massive victim
Buster: That depends what your next move is
Rio: š
Buster: And itās me being annoying
Rio: Like youāve never done anything you regret at 14, now even
Rio: Doesnāt he deserve a chance to explain himself?
Buster: He isnāt the victim, heās the perpetratorĀ
Rio: Iām not scared anymore
Buster: The point is, you were
Buster: he did that, thereās no excuse
Rio: an apology doesnāt count for anything, no
Buster: Exactly
Rio: Iāll think about it when I have to, right now I can be distracted
Buster: Donāt let me stop you then
Rio: Okay
Buster: Okay
Rio: You could at least say bye, be polite
Buster: I could, but if I did youād have no opportunities left to point out my character flaws
Rio: Hardly
Buster: As far as seeking distractions go, you could do a lot better, I already agreed
Rio: I donāt need pointers
Buster: You donāt need a polite goodbye
Rio: Iāll survive without one, yeah
Buster: Good
Rio: What are you mad at me for
Buster: Why arenāt you mad at him?
Rio: Iām not not but it makes sense
Rio: itās better it was Liam than some random who wasnāt grieving and was just creepy
Buster: That creepy random wouldnāt be in your life forever, at least
Rio: Could be
Buster: Maybe, but I wouldnāt have to ask myself if I have enough willpower to avoid hitting him and ruining Christmas
Rio: Of course you do
Buster: Okay, well if I want to exercise it or Iād rather beat the shit out of him
Rio: You know you canāt, itās already a fucking mess of a situation
Buster: I know
Rio: You can ignore him, itās not like heās super social
Buster: I will
Rio: Thanks
Rio: Iām sorry
Buster: You have nothing to be sorry about or thank me for
Rio: I donāt want to ruin anyoneās Christmas
Buster: It isnāt you
Rio: I told you, youād have no idea otherwise
Buster: Iām not mad you told me, only that there isnāt more I can do
Rio: Telling you wasnāt terrible, that was something
Rio: it was a relief
Buster: Of course, bottling shit up is just going to make you feel worse
Rio: It wouldāve been worse telling anyone when I had no clue who it was and it was happening all the time
Rio: it wouldāve just freaked everyone out
Buster: I understand why you didnāt
Rio: You wouldnāt of either, right
Buster: No, I think you did the right thing
Rio: So I do owe you a thank you
Buster: You wish, that way I wonāt be able to refuse whatever present youāre shopping for as easily
Rio: Why would you refuse, itās going to be the best present you got
Rio: beside whatever your parents got you, Iām not making those promises
Buster: Good save
Rio: It was your 18th, if they didnāt go hard thatād be terrible parenting
Buster: Itās a shame I wonāt have to let them know you think theyāre bad parents
Rio: Wait ātil Iām out the country, tah
Buster: Youāre desperate to owe me something, now itās a favour
Rio: Well itās not as if youāre going to do a secret for a secret
Buster: Wrong twin
Buster: sheād happily distract you with her own drama if you werenāt avoiding her
Rio: I have plans now
Rio: that donāt involve an IV and a facial
Buster: Whenās your flight?
Rio: Not ātil tonight, so I can have dinner at [a fancy restaurant]
Buster: Youāll like [a different fancy restaurant] more
Rio: Yeah?
Rio: Iāll let them know
Buster: Trust me
Rio: Blame your friend for not picking it first
Buster: I told you none of them have good taste
Rio: I wasnāt aware that extended to actual food
Buster: Why wouldnāt it?
Rio: Itās a very specific diss
Rio: Iāll see what he orders
Buster: I shouldāve said none of them make good decisions instead, I thought you knew what I meant
Rio: The dig @ me wasnāt subtle but I was choosing to ignore it
Buster: It isnāt a dig at youĀ
Rio: š mhmm
Buster: One of my friends going out with you isnāt a wise move on their part, thatās allĀ
Rio: Itās dinner
Buster: The plans themselves are irrelevant, except for how well they prove my point
Rio: Why, like Iām going to eat alone
Buster: You have other optionsĀ
Rio: Not on short notice, I know none of them have any other plans today
Buster: You also know Iād go with youĀ
Rio: I already took up too much of your time today
Buster: No you didnātĀ
Rio: Oh, well
Rio: I donāt want a pity hangout though, thatās never the mood
Buster: Come on, you know me better than that
Rio: Yeah, okay, but no one else knows about the stalking thing soĀ
Rio: they canāt talk to me about it
Buster: We donāt have to talk about it eitherĀ
Rio: I know you better than that, boy
Buster: You clearly donāt, babe
Rio: A bit š¤
Buster: You should know better than to underestimate me
Rio: If anything, itās an overestimation, reckoning you HAVE to tell me what to do
Buster: You did the right thing last time, you will this time tooĀ
Rio: I appreciate the faith
Buster: I know you well enoughĀ
Rio: Youāve been annoyed by more annoying family members recently, you donāt need to be mad at me too
Buster: Unless you stand me up and I have to eat aloneĀ
Rio: Why would I do that
Buster: You wonāt, so I wonāt be mad at you
Rio: Thank God, I donāt need that, my boyfriend already will be
Buster: You need [whatever fancy af cocktail is a special at this restaurant]
Rio: I definitely do
Buster: Meet me at [a time]
Rio: Okay
Buster: Itāll give you time to cancel on [the name of whatever friend he knows it is], listening to his sob story included
Rio: Itās so not that deep, if he tries itā¦ š
Buster: Iāll order you a double, donāt worry
Rio: So thoughtful
Buster: Youāre welcomeĀ
Rio: Are you going to get a [whatever his favourite drink is]
Buster: Iāll join you in [the cocktail because heās a secure boy]
Rio: Are the prices that excessive weāll have to share š¤
Buster: My parents taught me sufficient manners to foot the bill
Rio: I never actually said they were bad parents, FYI
Buster: I remember, barely a threat never mind a promise
Rio: And I only asked you to be polite
Buster: And I listened, so donāt start an argument with me about paying your way
Rio: Youāll only want to remind me you can afford it, so I wonāt
Buster: It isnāt a reminder either of us need
Rio: I paid for my flights and the presents, thatās enough willing shown, anyone would agree
Buster: More thanĀ
Rio: For your sister, perhaps
Buster: For her, definitelyĀ
Rio: as she didnāt even have to drunkenly listen to my problems as she was too busy creating her own, yeah
Buster: As well as a headache for me
Rio: Itās really unfortunate youāre twins
Rio: itās the same with Janis and Grace, theyāre the least alike
Buster: We could have plenty in common, itās her priorities which are unfortunate
Rio: I donāt think youāre anything alike
Buster: I think thatās the most genuine compliment youāve ever given meĀ
Rio: Youāre only 18 once, like
Buster: Donāt remind me, you mentioned having regrets before, that party has earned a place on my list
Rio: It probably never lives up to the hype, itās truthful, far as consolation goes
Buster: It easily wouldāve if Iād been in charge of it
Rio: Itās just a number then
Rio: 19 is the newĀ
Buster: Was it your boyfriend who said age is just a number?
Rio: Youāre SO funny š
Buster: Itās a fair question
Rio: Youāre thinking of the last one, heās only 22
Buster: Are you sure? He looks 32
Rio: Youāre being rude again š
Buster: Hardly
Rio: Why are we talking about him again
Buster: Weāre not
Rio: Good save
Buster: Iām just wondering which you believe, that weāre only 18 once or itās a number
Rio: Hmm š¤
Rio: itās less about the day, more about the 364 you have until youāre 19, thatās what I think
Buster: Great save
Rio: šš½āāļø
Rio: What do you think?
Buster: I agree
Rio: You can still hold your shitty party against Nance, not that old you have to be that mature
Buster: She wishes what I had to hold against her was that petty
Rio: No doubtā¦
Rio: blackmailed into better behaviour is better than nothing
Buster: With her, we have very little choice but to take what we can get
Rio: Yeah
Rio: Iād hate to think of my brothers and sisters saying shit like that about me
Buster: It isnāt something you have to think about because it isnāt something your siblings would say about you
Rio: š¤
Rio: That would change if I told Edie, she doesnāt hold back
Buster: Neither should you, how you felt is important and she needs to hear it
Rio: There are more important things
Buster: You matter too, Rio
Rio: I want to be in Libiās life, what if she doesnāt want me to be if I say any of this
Buster: She wouldnāt cut you out, youāre family, and you havenāt done anything but whatās best for her and Libi
Buster: you kept this a secret for her own good and if you tell her itās still with protecting them in mind, sheāll recognise that, sheās not an idiot
Rio: Sheās not
Rio: Anyway, this is breaking the rules, Iām not thinking about it ātil I get back to Dublin
Buster: Thatās the last time Iāll bring it up, I swear
Rio: Iāll make you pinky promise
Buster: Not if I make you forget about all of this first
Rio: You think you can
Buster: I know I can
Rio: Iām not going to refuse that
Buster: Why would you?
Rio: Iām sure we could think of plenty of reasons if we bothered
Buster: Iām too busy thinking of ways to salvage this trip for you
Rio: We can make attempts at salvaging for you too
Rio: even if I have to point out itās a taller order
Buster: Iām fine
Rio: Sure but fine is not fine
Buster: Okay, Iām great
Rio: Because I really believe you now š
Buster: I donāt want a pity dinner any more than you did
Rio: Not what I was suggesting, because duh
Buster: What are you suggesting [a really basic touristy thing purely for the pisstake]?
Rio: š
Rio: Yes, Iām going to make you [another super touristy moment] with me and itāll serve you right
Buster: Iāll look out for when you tie your hair back and take your earrings off
Rio: You should
Rio: canāt say you havenāt been warned
Buster: You canāt either, I told you earlier I donāt lose
Rio: Yet
Buster: Ever
Rio: Never know if we donāt try, canāt claim a win when you forfeitĀ
Buster: Iām not going to forfeit, bring it on
Rio: At [the time youāre meant to meet] š
Buster: [Give her the deets of the car youāve already booked and sorted to collect her etc because heās just that bitch and always organised af]
Rio: Alright, youāre off to a good startĀ
Buster: If youād like something that isnāt a mermaid tail to wear to [this restaurant] Nance has [whatever itās called when you can just come and shop like on an account idk Iām not posh] at [and a list of whatever shops she does, they canāt all entirely suck]
Rio: I couldnāt possibly do that
Buster: I dare you
Rio: Seriously
Buster: When am I not serious?
Rio: Sheāll notice
Buster: Itās Nancy
Rio: š
Rio: but really, I can buy my own outfit
Buster: If you want to forfeit the dare, yeah
Rio: Iām going to be late then
Buster: Youāre going to be worth the wait though
Rio: Rude you donāt trust my own budget for that to be true
Buster: Donāt act like it isnāt more fun to get dressed at her expense
Rio: I wouldnāt say that
Buster: What would you say?
Rio: I might ask a question
Buster: Yeah?
Rio: Well, I could ask for your opinions, what you want me to wear, I might not take them into consideration
Buster: Iām rarely wrong, youāll want to take that into consideration
Rio: Iāve never been wrong about an outfit
Buster: [obvs mention an ootd from when she was a lil kid like what about that one lol even though it was probably still a slay, gotta just remind her that he remembers things]
Rio: š³ Shut up, Iāve always been cute
Buster: I wasnāt disputing how cute you were
Rio: You wouldnāt want to ruin your claim to rarely wrong
Buster: No, I wouldnāt
Rio: So, what do you like
Buster: Donāt you want to guess?
Rio: I could
Buster: So, what do I like?
Rio: Canāt you wait and see?
Buster: Canāt you remember how impatient I am?
Rio: Thatās half the fun
Buster: Youāre right, weāre having half as much fun as we could beĀ
Rio: Thereās always time for more fun
Buster: Wait and see
Buster: [10000% looking online at fits and then calling up the store and getting the poor girl who works there to give Rio said fits to try on, so casually, just dressing your cousin for a date nbd]
Rio: [sending you selfies of these options, obviously]
Buster: [Sending her more options to keep this try on sesh going like see how much fun this is because I cannot trust him to comment on any of those selfies]
Rio: Okay, Iāll really be late if you donāt stop
Rio: I already donāt know what to pick
Buster: [pick one for her, again so casually]
Rio: I see you
Buster: Do you?
Rio: Showing you have better taste than your friends
Buster: I already proved that with the outfit I threw on to grab coffee
Rio: You dress well, itād be stupid to suggest otherwise
Buster: You donāt need much help yourself
Rio: Iām not going to forfeit a dare to argue
Buster: Are you going to give me a dare to do?
Rio: If you wanna play
Buster: Of course
Rio: Then Iāll think of a good one
Buster: Iām sure itāll be worth the wait too
Rio: Who am I
Buster: Who Iām choosing to spend the evening withĀ
Rio: Despite knowing that present competition is non-existent, still take it
Buster: Itād be stupid to suggest thereās ever any
Rio: Stupid is one of the last things Iād bother to call you
Rio: skirting āround the issue is one thing but barefaced lies
Buster: Weāve argued plenty of times when there isnāt a dare at stake, Iāve definitely heard you call me most things youād feel are a more appropriate fit for who I am
Rio: Well now we know who has the best imagination if you honestly think āmostā is fitting
Buster: Well, poor kids need better imaginations than rich ones
Buster: and we arenāt trading one of your secrets for one of mine, so
Rio: š I imagine that stings more when the target is actually āpoorā, give you the benefit of the doubt there
