Gabrielle Lurie: In the absence of water and The cannabis industry.

“To be successful, you must be persistent and push to be seen and heard.”(Lurie,

Reuters). Gabrielle lurie has been photographing mostly for the San Francisco chronicle after graduating from NYU. A Lot of her work brings a sense of empathy in the photos she takes making one feel like they are a part of that person's world. The bodies of work that will be discussed are called In the absence of water and The cannabis industry.

Lurie worked on her series of photos of the Tulare county,California drought from 2019 to 2023 when the drought ended. In the series she shows the effects of the drought not just on the land area, but also on the people. In one of the photos it shows two men, one walking towards one direction and the other walking the other way but with a case of water in his hands. The photo shows how volunteers had to bring water to the people of Tulare county. Going through the photos you see people with a distressed look on their face. One being of a woman who has five kids but also lupus, which affects her joints and organs. The picture is also in black and white adding to the effect of making one feel empathetic towards the person. There are many photos that show the stress of not having or not knowing if they will have water.Even though there is stress some have found an opportunity to make the most of their situation and even help others to be able to combat the crisis. One photo shows a man filling up large buckets to his neighbors that have trouble accessing water. The other is a photo of a sign with a phone number that one can call to get water pressure and tank systems without any drilling because of how expensive it can be to do that type of work. This shows that even in the darkest of times there is still some light and good that can be done. “Photographs create empathy and force people to be confronted with a topic up close.” The title given to this body of work with its name of the absence of water, helps the viewer understand the struggles of not having water and helps us not to take it for granted by showing a raw look at people who are physically and mentally suffering because of no water in their town.

Gabrielle also covers the cannabis industry,how it came to be part of a mainstream product across the United States, specifically in Northern California. “We need photojournalism to inform people not only of what is happening but what it looks like.”(Lurie,Reuters 2024). When it comes to cannabis or as many people know it as Marijuana, weed, or Mary Jane. The name cannabis is now known to be a more legal name for the product and has a bad reputation of being a gateway drug for most and has had a long history of being on the bad side of the law. Now with this piece of work known as the “ Cannabis Industry” we can see how some places are starting up or even the price of having a business like this cost. In one of the photos there is a bag of money worth $31,500, that is supposed to the state board of equalization. From this picture one can see how beneficial it is for the state to start legalizing the cannabis industry to collect on taxes. Another picture that shows a more positive view of cannabis. The picture shows a ganja yoga class where the participants smoke while doing the yoga routines. Cannabis has many benefits to it as in lowering blood pressure and reducing inflammation and reduces the pain inflammation causes.(2021). The benefits to cannabis are reflected in the picture because yoga is meant to relax the muscles and be able to improve the body's muscles. The series of pictures shows us a small insight on the cannabis industry, where most only know the negative view of cannabis, the photos tell a different story from supporters and workers who are making the effort to make their business thrive.  

It's amazing at how Gabrielle took her pictures in both of her series, the raw/real moments that are captured by her images. In the cannabis industry, it can change the perspective of many who think that this industry is something that just is an illegal substance in their lifetime. The work in the absence of water is great because of how abundant water is to some, without it we see the stress of not having it. Lurie makes us question how we see water and cannabis by showing the work that goes into making it work and how no water can be a struggle to let us know we are lucky to not be in a drought.

[a-shared-experience]

Hello my girl how are you?

Not good she replies as she lowers her chin.

She tells me she was raped in one of the alleys.

I’m heartbroken for her. I ensure her that I’m here to support her in whatever way she needs. Mostly I listen. She tries to downplay it and says my famous line, “ it’s just another thing”.

I stay with her in the nursing station while the male nurse begins to remove soiled bandages from the legs. I guess I don’t know what I was expecting to see but it’s difficult not to vomit when it’s revealed.

I have a pretty solid poker face so I distract myself in tiny ways by looking at the floor, the shelf, the ticking clock.

I want to escape but I can’t leave her. The smell fills the room. I remind her when to deeply inhale and then squeeze the pen in her fist tightly, distract. You’re doing great.

We talk about many things as she sits for severe wound care. I tell her she has the right to always have a female present in any medical situation. She tells me the male nurse at the hospital creeps her out and I offer to arrange for female providers to meet with her. She tells me she only trusts me and my nurse.

She wishes she had a home to call her own, a journal to write in, a bicycle to ride.

“ I wish I was free but I feel trapped”

We give her a journal and a pen and she writes down that she thinks the nurse is cute and giggles .

I smile back at her. “ when I called ems for you in august was that the last time you were in hospital”

“ no , I overdosed two days ago. I keep getting bad pint.”

She tells me her favourite singers are Ed Sheeran and Shawn Mendez and that no one cares about her. She said her parents knew she would never amount to anything so they adopted another girl. She says she has no friends and I remind her that we are her friends.

She slips into delusion and I am trying to decide if it’s sleep deprivation or schizophrenia. She mumbles about spies and construction workers that are waiting for her.

“ you are safe. You are here with me, my name is Brett.”

All she has is an empty suitcase so I start filling it with little things I find .

Socks, bandages, deodorant, toothbrush, snacks and harm reduction supplies.

I write her a note back in the journal that reads, “ you are loved” and doodle over the page.

I encourage her to try and draw the things she sees around her when she’s outside- things like flowers, people, the birds. Will you make me a picture someday, I ask.

“ yes I promise”

I share with her that I’m a survivor of sexual assault and that I had a love affair with meth too.

I tell her to find anything in nature that she thinks is beautiful and to look for it each day to get through the depression. I ask about therapy and housing and continue to steer clear of the psychotic breaks and limerence for a boy who didn’t love her back.

It’s a long morning spent together and when I walk her outside she stops and hugs me in a way that neither of us have probably been hugged in awhile. I smile and tell her she has to come back for follow up. She states again that she will only deal with us. This makes things challenging as we work rotations but we will figure it out.

She’s very sweet and I sit on the bench as she walks away. The heat feels nice but I get flashbacks of the wound and feel queasy. After a few minutes I notice her heading back my way. When she gets closer she quietly asks for one more hug and I hold her once more.

The nurse and i debrief and he tells me I was incredible with the patient. I tell him he was too . We both have heavy hearts despite our efforts. Suffering is so normalized. It’s just another thing.

We end the work day by 1 pm and drive out to the country side. We get lost and have the most riveting yet fragmented adhd chats and laugh a lot. Finally we find our boss’s house and sit around the bon fire with lots of yummy food and smoke a little ganja with some of the team. It’s nice , I really care about these weirdos.

Later on I drive back to the city with my friend who’s moving 4 hours away tomorrow for a new career. She tells me she’s been isolating and feeling down and I send some of my self love her way. You’re ok babe - you’re not supposed to have it all figured out. Think of it like an adventure that could take you anywhere.

I tell her I’ll come visit when she’s settled. We hug before I get out of the car and I wish her safe travels. She tells me she thinks I’m a beautiful human and that I mean a lot to her.

I wonder if I’ll see her again. Two nights of socializing has left me drained but I’m grateful for the people in my life.

A lot of us have been feeling down lately and unsure of what’s happening in our relationships, with our fluctuating emotions and where we should invest our time.

I notice how we are all reaching out to connect and to reach for our joy. There is hope in this hopeless place

Demystifying Gond art and significance of trees?

There are over 705 tribes and indigenous groups in India. The arts have been influenced by a broad range of cultures, including folk and tribal art. The term “Gond” is derived from the word “Kond,” which means “green mountains,” and the Gondis are mostly found in Madhya Pradesh’s verdant highlands. The tribe believes that viewing a positive image brings prosperity and good fortune.

The earth, water, and air, according to those who believe in gods, are under their control. The majority of their holidays are observed by singing and dancing in adoration of the gods and nature. On rare times, such as when the Dandari artists are present, dances represent folk events. Dhulias (musicians) preserve legends, fantasies, and history by handing them down from generation to generation in addition to making music. Tribal paintings from the Gond region represent a variety of celebrations and ceremonies.

About Gond Art

The designs of Digna and Bhittichitra art were the ancestors of modern Gond paintings. The Gonds decorate their homes with Digna paint on the walls and floors. Bhittichitra decorates their homes with pictures of animals and vegetation.

Gond Art: Stories and Symbols

It is impossible to understate the significance of trees in Gond art. Humans are shielded from the sun by trees in the summer and from the rain by them in the monsoon season.

Ganja Mahua Tree: A lower caste boy and an upper caste girl who fell in love but were shunned by society is the subject of folklore. They gave up everything and entered the wilderness, where they gave birth to the ganja and mahua trees. It is said that ganja and mahua should never be consumed together while intoxicated.

Saja Tree: The Saja Tree is a tree that is revered by both the Gond population and the Bada Dev (their divinity).

Pakri Tree: The Gond community consumes food (saag) produced from these leaves whenever the tree’s fresh leaves blossom, protecting them against several ailments and diseases.

Peepal Tree: Since the Gods (Devtas) reside there, the peepal tree is regarded as the most significant tree in Hinduism.

Tamarind Tree: The tamarind tree is significant to indigenous people as well because they use the fruit to create chutney (paste) and sell it to earn a living. In the Gond culture, there are several platforms for gods or goddesses located under the trees.

In Gond art, a nice picture is thought to bring good fortune. Because of this ingrained idea, the Gonds adorned their homes instead of painting the designs of their tattoos on the walls.

Global sales of Gond art goods including wooden trays, boxes, and paintings on wood have increased exponentially.

What is the most effective approach to study Gond art, then? In our Live Arts Workshop collections, Rooftop App routinely hosts Gond art workshops. Utilize the provided link to download the app.

SURSH, horror media recs please???? can be as long or as short as you want? and can be literally any kind of media <3

I tried my best <3333

Movies:

Just straight up good movies:

Get Out

Us

Psycho

The Birds

Don’t Look Now (1973)

The Conjuring

Fun for Movie Night:

Scream (all of them)

Friday the 13th

The Cabin in the Woods

Insidious

A Nightmare on Elm Street

Saw

Movies I rented with my brother at blockbusters when I was 8 (I don’t think I actually recommend these, though):

One missed call 

Vacancy

The Grudge 

Hostel (the fact that I was allowed to rent this out as a kid concerns me. But my brother and I FREAKED over some foreshadowing we noticed at the start of the movie and that excitement makes me fond so the trauma gets a pass. The ending kind of sucked)

So bad it was almost funny (but it might’ve just been bad):

The Boy

Psycho II

The Ring (Scary Movie 3 was better (so were the movies my brother made to scare me into thinking i had 7 days to live))

On my list to watch:

Ganja and Hess

Spider Baby

Nosferatu

Carnival of Souls

Duel (1971)

Les Diaboliques

TV Series:

Scream (2015) - I LOVE scream so this was fun. Was it good? I have no idea.

Into the night - This is a thriller, not a horror. But it was really good and I've never had the chance to recommend it (I haven’t watched the second season, though, cause i’ve only just realised it’s out)

Haunting of Bly Manor (if that counts as horror, idk)

Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids (idc if it’s a cartoon for kids, idc if it was on after school, idc that it’s not ‘horror’, it is DEEPLY unsettling and it gave me nightmares about the toothfairy and being stuck in mirrors)

Books:

Goosebumps: One Day at Horror Land (idk if I should recommend this one because I haven’t read it in 10+ years so I don’t remember anything except that I was obsessed with it. My grandad bought me 100 goosebump books at junk yard sales and the horror land ones are the ones i remember reading. BUT, they are books for kids so grain of salt)

Mysteries that aren’t really horror but are still fun:

The Guest List by Lucy Foley

The Sanatorium by Sarah Pearse

Lock Every Door by Riley Sager

One by One by Ruth Ware

Podcasts:

Narrative:

The Magnus Archives (i’ve not gotten very far but i’m really enjoying it)

Meta:

You’re Wrong About - The Amityville Horror episodes + the Ed and Lorraine Warren episodes are GREAT (the real life stories behind those movies are fascinating and I love the hosts) - they also talk a lot about satanic panics in the culture (which sometimes made certain horror movies like the exorcist super popular). It’s a really interesting podcast

Websites:

I love reading about games like the midnight man on creepy pasta tbh but I need to go searching for more stuff

Games

Until Dawn

Outlast

I don’t have many recs for games because I am too soft to participate in horror. My brother mostly takes over after the first half hour and finishes the game while I watch)

[filmnoirsbian]

could u recommend some good horror movies? I can pretty much watch anything as long as there aren’t explicit torture scenes (like saw for example)

Hmmm ok so we're gonna break this down bc i have different recommendations for different moods lol

Horror for when u want to think: get out, silence of the lambs, the thing, 28 days later, snowpiercer (some people don't consider this horror but they're wrong), night of the living dead, suspiria, a quiet place, audition (this does have some torture in it but mostly it's just gross body horror so skip it if that bothers u), the fly, the candyman, ginger snaps, ringu, ju-on: the grudge, a tale of two sisters, possession, an american haunting, the exorcist, let the right one in, byzantium, teeth, raw, rec, the babbadook, midsommar, el orfanato, beloved, stoker, ganja & hess, the last house on the left (i prefer the 2009 remake because the actress was really mistreated in the original), the shape of water, a nightmare on elm street (original and 2010 remake), the exorcism of emily rose, alien, alien vs predator, i am mother, oldboy, the others, insidious, it (2017), black swan, coraline, pan's labyrinth, mother!, the crow

Horror for when u want to laugh: jennifer's body, shaun of the dead, cabin in the woods, zombieland, scream, bad kids go to hell, ready or not, the babysitter, fright night (original and 2011 remake), krampus, happy death day, wrinkles the clown, one cut of the dead, the love witch, evil dead (original only, the 2013 remake is not funny at all), dark shadows, dead snow, zombeavers, trick r treat, jason takes manhattan (is not necessary to watch the other friday the 13ths first), an american werewolf in london, elvira, eight legged freaks, sharknado, sharktopus, lake placid

Horror for when u just want to watch people die: halloween and halloween 2 (original only. If u watch the rob zombie version, only watch the first), final destination (i like them all), scream 2-4, friday the 13th, you're next, carrie (original), black christmas (original and 2019 remake), the brothers grimm, us, train to busan, 28 weeks later, quarantine, i know what you did last summer, drag me to hell, repo the genetic opera (not to be confused with repo men), the omen, the exorcist 3, silent nignt deadly night, prom night (original), my bloody valentine (original but the 2009 remake has dean supernatural in it which is very funny. Sam supernatural is in the 2009 friday the 13th remake which is also very funny. It's like they had a pact), shark night, the ritual, resident evil 1-3, underworld, blade, blade 2, van helsing, mojin, rampant, pitch black

Hope this helps!

The Start of Something New

Chapter 2 — The Plan

Pairing: JJ x Reader

Synopsis: JJ and you have been best friends for years. JJ’s dad doesn’t care about him, and you’re emancipated neither of you really want to go to college, so you say fuck it, take all your life savings and move to yucatán and open a surf shop. Where things could get interesting between you two!

Warnings: swearing/language nothing too bad yet. Probably some typos.

  “So all together we have 12,920 dollars,” you count putting the money down. “Just 80 dollars short of 13,000,” you mumble.

That was actually a good amount. You’ve been saving a lot of money from the job you have, and you needed an income to get emancipated. And JJ had money from his 2 jobs.

  “That’s good,” JJ sits across from you at the table. You guys were at the Chateau, John B was with Sarah, so it was just you two. “You could seriously buy grade A ganja with that,” he grins and you laugh.

  “Yeah, but that’s not the point here,” you say. “We still need to plan everything else,” you sigh. “Like living expenses, plane tickets... food!” You stress.

  “We’re setting 500 for plane tickets,” you sort out 500 and put it to the side and he nods. “And we’ll put 7,000 into a place to live and work,” you out that aside. “We don’t know the prices or how the money works over there... so we gotta figure that out,” you add. You were mostly talking to yourself trying to plan this out.

You may have been care free like JJ and just go on a whim. But you weren’t as ruthless, you still actually thought about the consequences... unlike some.

  “Well, then the rest is for what!?” JJ asks. “Weed?”

  “JJ!” You give him a look and he chuckles. “You do realize that if you start a surf shop, you need the appliances and all?” I ask him.

  “Yeah,” he shrugs.

  “That costs money,” you retort. “Without the 7000 and 500, that leaves us with 5,420. Still a lot. So we’re gonna need food, and... appliances,” you remark. “Okay,” you breathe out a huff of air.

  “Make sure to set some aside for weed,” he tells you and you laugh.

  “I’m keeping 100 right now, if we have more... we can add more,” you tell him and he nods.

  “So we’re good?” He asks.

  “Technically not,” you shake your head. “Honestly JJ we might be fucked. But...” you sigh.

  “Aren’t we always?” He asks.

  “True,” you nod.

  “Smoke break?” He asks pulling up the joint he had rolled while you were sorting and stressing over the money and the whole situation.

You lived in Outer Banks your whole life without a plan... what’s so special about having one now? Why were you stressing now? You thought to yourself. You said fuck it. So fuck it.

  “Yes, I need some,” you nod at JJ. You needed to relax.

~

  “Yucatan!?” Kiara asks baffled. Her eyes were wide and she looked shocked.

  “Yeah!” You and JJ nod with wide grins. You were both really high now. You were no longer stressing over the money and the plan, you relaxed a bit.

  “In Mexico....?” Pope asks confused and you nod.

  “Um why?” Kie asks. “What the hell!?”

  “Why not?” JJ replies. “We have nothing better to do. So what’s better than a surf shop in Yucatan!?” He pulls his hat off running a hand through his hair and he puts it back on.

  “Where are you gonna get the money for that!?” John B asks.

  “We have money saved up,” JJ shrugs.

  “12,920 dollars to be exact!” You add. “Plus we have a plan in the works!”

  “A plan!?” Kie laughs. “You two... planning!?” She says like it’s a joke and you both don’t say anything. “You’re serious!?” She asks.

  “Dead serious,” you nod.

  “Guys, think about this logically,” Pope shakes his head. “Is that enough for you to fly there, live there and work there?” He asks.

  “Yes,” JJ nods. “(Y/N) has a plan,” he points to you.

  “A plan in the works,” you correct.

  “That’s a lot of planning,” Pope says.

  “No it’s not,” you shrug.

  “You guys really want to do this!?” John B asks and you and JJ look at each other.

  “Yeah,” you both say. “We have nothing else to do. You guys will be gone, we don’t have anything left in OBX. Why not?” You say.

  “And who better to do it with, then (Y/N),” JJ throws his arm around you and you grin.

  “What do you guys think it’s a bad idea?” You ask taking one of JJ’s rings off and putting it on your own hand. “Can I keep this?” You ask him and he shrugs.

  “It’s just a big idea,” Kie says and you both look at her.

  “Are you trying to put us down Kie!?” JJ asks. “Don’t ruin our high!”

  “I’m not putting you guys down. Do what ever makes you happy,” she shrugs. “I’m just saying, there’s more to it, than moving there.”

  “You guys really gotta think about this,” Pope nods.

  “I say go for it,” John B is the only one to say that. “Why not, we’re all going places, and it’s (Y/N) and JJ.”

  “Exaclty,” JJ nods.

  “The dream team,” You add and laugh at yourself.

  “The dream team? The pyschotic team,” Kie says and you laugh again.

  “Still fun!” You nod. “So,” you sit down and grab the beer that was waiting for you on the table.

  “Well, none of us can stop you and if you want to do something that’s great. But just telling you guys to think about it,” Kie says and you wave her off.

  “We have it under control!” JJ sits down. “Now, let’s all relax and have a drink.”

  “That’s what we’re doing,” Pope remarks.

  “Well... we still haven’t smoked!” He says pulling out a joint from his pocket. He always had these random joints lying around.

  “To the last week for the pouges,” Kiara sits up. “Pass it over JJ!”

~

You lay down in bed and stare up at the ceiling and sigh. You all had a couple of drinks and smoked some weed. It was late and everyone was heading to bed. But you weren’t tired. You were thinking about Yucatan.

The idea excited you, and you were barely worried anymore. It was just fun and you were happy that it would be you and JJ. A surf shop in Mexico, by the water, a new setting. With JJ... your best friend.

You’ve always wanted to leave the Outer Banks “paradise on earth” it wasn’t paradise when you weren’t rich. This is your opportunity to leave with JJ and you were extatic about it! You get out of bed and leave your room quietly. You make your way over to JJ’s room and walk in. You see his face being lit up, by just his phone light. He hears the door and looks over to see you.

  “(Y/N)?” He asks. 

“Hey,” You say. “I’m too excited to sleep,” You admit and he laughs.

  “What? Why?” He asks.

“Because of Yucatan,” you tell him standing by the door fiddling with your fingers. He sits up.

“Come sit,” he tells you and you walk over to his bed and get on it. “I’m excited too.”

“It’s gonna be so new,” you say leaning your back against the headboard of the bed.

“Yeah,” he agrees his phone light shutting and it was just you two in the dark.

“You think everything will work out?” I ask with a sigh.

“Yes,” he says. “Dude, it’s me... and you!” He adds and you laugh.

“Oh and things always work out for us?” You ask. “I don’t think so.”

“Well... you know what I mean (Y/N), we’re invisible,” he laughs.

“Sure,” you say.

“Yucatan isn’t ready for us!” He exclaims and you laugh again. You stare at the dark wall across from you, and just had a big smile on your face.

“Hey JJ,” you say.

“What’s up?” He asks.

“We’re free!!” You say for the hundredth time and he chuckles.

“Free falling!” He says.

“CAUSE IM FREEEEE!! FREE FALLIN!” You sing out and he laughs, but you guys both shut up when the door opens.

“Guys seriously!?” John B rasps from the doorway. “It’s the middle of the night!”

“Sorry!” You whisper. “We’ll be quiet.”

“Yeah, sorry man,” JJ says and John B shuts the door. After a minute, you and JJ both burst out laughing.

A Road to Somewhere, Chapter 1 (Adore Delaska) - Puppy

A/N: So, I’ve been wanting to write a Spirited Away AU for some time, so here we are. Spirited Away is my favorite Studio Ghibli film (plus the first one I ever saw) and I thought it would work in this setting.

I would like to thank @thackeryisatop and @chaoticnachokitten for helping me beta. Also thanks to @chaoticnachokitten for helping me with final casting.

I hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing this first chapter.

Chapter 1

Spanish Translations for Chapter 1:

“Ojalá que sobrevivan” - “I hope they survive”

“Puedo abrir la ventana?” - Can I open the window?

“Mierda” - “shit”

“Mija” - “my daughter”

~~

The jolts of the car startled her out of possibly one of the best naps she’d ever taken. Besides, it was the snake dream again, so it wasn’t anything new. Adore blinked herself awake and stared out the window and directly into the sun. It was so bright that she could barely see a thing. She couldn’t tell if they had left California or not, and she didn’t want to ask her mother if they were there yet. That kind of shit doesn’t fly now that she was a thirteen year old girl, practically an adult in her perspective. From the likes of it, it seemed that they had driven for 5 hours, yet the drive didn’t feel like it was getting any shorter.

Her phone was nearly dead and her mom had the charger at the moment, so there wasn’t any use trying to get some more juice on it. No one wanted to look at her updates on the trip. Heck, even Ganja was probably too busy with Gia and couldn’t be bothered with their own things to pay attention to her. They’ve probably been to San Francisco before; it wasn’t anything new. In the meantime, she just stared at the bouquet of flowers Laganja was thoughtful enough to buy.

“I’ll miss you, Adore. Until we meet again.” The messages on the card read with Laganja’s signature following it.

She appreciated the sentiment. She really did, but it seemed to her that they could’ve done more than just carnations. She was almost surprised that the flowers had survived this long considering the heat. The whirring of the engines and the occasional voice from the GPS kept her from napping any longer. “Moooom?” Adore groggily maneuvered herself within earshot of the woman driving the car.

“We have about an hour left. I think you can handle it. Now get back in the back, Dory.”

She sighed and sulked in her original spot. “I really don’t see why now was a good time to move. Azusa was, like, the bomb.”

“Me neither, but think on the bright side. There won’t be as many knife fights and we might get a cat at the new house. And your cousin says the middle school is great. You’d fit in well, I hear.”

“But Ganja won’t be there…” She whined, leaning back a little farther and scaring herself with the crinkling of plastic. “FUCK!”

“Watch your language.”

She whined. “SHIT! They’re all sad now.”

Bonnie glanced in the rearview mirror at her daughter and a newly crumpled bouquet of flowers. “Maybe you shouldn’t have smothered them.”

“Someone finally sends me flowers, and it’s for this. Great. They’re probably gonna die before we even get there.” Adore never doubted the California heat; that was an apt excuse for her pessimism, right? On top of everything else that had happened today, her gift wilting away into nothingness would be a perfect ending to this already hellish day.

“Ojalá que sobrevivan. We’ll put them in water as soon as we can.”

“Ma? ¿Puedo abrir la ventana?”

“Sure,” Bonnie responded. “Hold onto the card,” she shouted over the sounds of the wind blasting into the small car, “You don’t wanna lose it!” Her daughter took that word to heart and shoved the note in her jean shorts’ pocket. They’d be at the new house sooner than later if she took another nap, but it felt like something out there was keeping her awake.

It must have been that same force that subtly influenced Bonnie to avoid the GPS and swerve into a wrong turn, thrusting the seat belt-less Adore to the other side of the car. Thankfully, she was unharmed.

Bonnie cursed in Spanish before slowing down her drive. “I must’ve missed the turn. Mierda. On the bright side, I think there’s a rest stop up ahead so you can stretch your legs or do whatever it is you need to.”

“What’s with all those rocks? They look like houses.” Adore poked her head out of the window to get a better view, her Ariel red hair whipping behind her.

“Never mind. At least we made it.” Her mother parked the car and stepped out. The more the two looked around, the less it seemed like a normal rest stop. There weren’t any park benches or vending machines; hell, there weren’t any other people besides them. It was simply the Delanos, the forest, the road, and the structure ahead of them. “Ah… now I got it. This probably used to be some tourist trap in the early eighties.”

“Why’d people stopped coming?” Adore wondered as she observed the framework of the building. Maybe it’s the fact it’s in the middle of the fucking woods, Adore. She blinked as a voice in the back of her head answered her rhetorical question. “Y’know what? Screw it, I’m going in!”

Bonnie grabbed her hand, halting her daughter in the process of rushing through the entrance. “No you’re not.”

“Come on, I just wanna look at it. Only for a few minutes!” The redhead whined as she wiggled her hand out of her mother’s grasp. “I’ll be, like, right there and back…”

“I’m… gonna call the movers. Tell them we’re gonna be late and-” Before she could finish her sentence, Adore ran into the tunnel. “Let’s hope they have a key.”

The teen stopped and looked behind her. She could barely see her mother on the phone as she was washed out by a pool of light. The tunnel felt longer than she expected, as she never fully felt like she reached the middle. A breeze blew behind her, urging her to go forward. It may have been strong enough to blow her over, but it felt gentle in places too. If Adore was to fall, the wind would probably catch her and set her on her way. She scoffed and went on her way, faster as the wind pushed her.

This place wasn’t like any other tourist trap that she had encountered before. It was mostly a field with a small collection of buildings far off in the distance. From what Adore could see of the buildings, they were foreign in nature - Japanese, probably considering California’s history. An old straw hut struggled to stay upright at the wind, decorated with dandelion seeds from a far off field. The cobblestone she was standing on eventually gave way to a dirt path towards the infrastructure. A clock tower stood on top of the structure behind her: dormant, yet imposing. A little farther down the path, there was a collection of rocks. Bonnie shortly caught up to her and they both took in the view.

“Damn… we should’ve brought a picnic.” Adore muttered off-handedly. As if on cue, a savory smell wafted through the air.

“Come to think of it, I am starving. Let’s see if there’s something up ahead.” The two women went on their way down the path and towards the little uphill town. “They were probably going to put a river there,” Her mother pointed to the rocks, “Would’ve been neat.”

Adore followed suit, becoming more aware of the noise of the footsteps. The more she traveled down that path, the less she wanted to stay. The less she felt wanted. However, she hadn’t eaten in a couple of hours so it was worth it. She had enough energy to hop up the stairs without tripping.

When they entered the town, it was mostly deserted. There were definitely sounds of action and evidence that people had been there before. Occasional piles of bones stacked on top of plates from previous customers and some orange peels had been scattered around the ground. “Are any of these still open? It’d be a dick move to come in, like, fifteen minutes before they close.” Adore wondered aloud before, as if by magic, the two arrived at a buffet. There were a few catches though. From what they could see, there was no one at the kitchen or at the cashier’s. “Maybe they’re on a break?” she continued, but her mother ignored her.

“Mija, you’ve got to try this!” Bonnie shoved a forkful towards her daughter, who stepped away

“I don’t think I oughta. Also… vegetarian, remember?.” Her mother ignored her as she scarfed down whatever was in front of her. Adore didn’t care how good it looked, she didn’t want to eat it.

“This is the only time we’re gonna have anything of quality before we get to the house. Come on, you’ve gotta have something… When was the last time we ate? Breakfast?”

“Yes, but isn’t this, like, kinda stealing? There’s nowhere that specifically says ‘all-you-can-eat’!”

“Don’t worry about it,” Bonnie said with a mouthful of chicken, “I’ve got credit cards and cash. I’ll pay when someone gets back.”

Adore just scoffed and wandered off while her mother engorged herself with whatever was in front of her. They were going to be here for a while, so she’d might as well get a feel for the place. She glanced at the empty shops as she walked, hoping that another one that was more her speed was open and manned properly; however, she had no money so she was basically screwed. The redhead trudged her way up another flight of stairs towards a sign. She couldn’t quite make out what it said, but it didn’t really matter. She turned to her left and gasped, noticing a building she hadn’t seen before.

“Wha?” Adore blinked to see if she was seeing it correctly. It looked like a traditional bathhouse. There was some steam or smoke coming from a chimney-stack, so there had to be some people inhabiting this ghost town. “That’s strange…” she pondered. If so, why weren’t they out and about? What was so great about the saunas that everything else needed to be neglected? She grabbed a ponytail holder and put her hair up into a messy updo and approached the bathhouse.

As soon as she was about halfway across, she was startled by a sudden rumbling of the bridge and a crossing train, or at least the sound of it. “I… guess there’s a station nearby.” She talked to herself before speed-walking to the other side to see it cross. She hopped up onto a railing and leaned forward to get a better look. The farther the train was out of sight, the more cautious she was becoming. It was as if someone, or something, was watching her every move the moment she came to the bridge. When Adore stepped down from the railing, her suspicions were confirmed.

A girl who looked about her age (perhaps a little older) stared at her, gasping as Adore made eye contact with her. It was as if she had run into an old friend. She had blonde hair that went to her mid-back and was slightly taller than her with a fairer complexion than her. There was something definitely odd about the lady, but she couldn’t quite place it. The two stared at each other for a bit as the sun began to sit behind them. There was something familiar about her, but too familiar. There was no time to focus on formalities though.

“You shouldn’t be here, you know,” The blonde charged towards Adore.

“Wait what? Why?”

“No time to explain. It’s getting dark.” She increasingly grew more panicked, pushing Adore farther and farther down the bridge. “You should leave. NOW.” It was nearly too late for words now. The sun was setting faster by the second and lamps began to light behind them. She collected herself for a moment and whispered in Adore’s ear, “I’m sorry, but I have to do this. I’ll distract them so you can get away faster. The woman then pushed her towards the last stretch of the bridge at the edge of the staircase.

Adore looked back at the woman. She couldn’t quite understand what she was doing, but she noticed something come from the other girl’s hands. They looked like flower petals… or scales, perhaps. She wasn’t close enough to fully determine the material. “Bitch didn’t have to push me though…” she mumbled to herself before running off to find her mother again.

She called her as loud and as frequently as she could. Her voice could’ve given out at any moment without hesitation. Thankfully, the redhead was able to determine her location; it seemed like anyone could hear the sounds of her chewing no matter where they were. “Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma!” She tugged on her mother’s arm, but she didn’t budge, “We gotta go! We gotta go! It’s getting dark! I don’t wanna be here anymore! I’m-” Before she could apologize any more, she witnessed the hand she was holding turn into a cloven hoof. The face that then faced her wasn’t human. Adore stared at her mother’s bovine features as she stepped back. “Mom…” She remained frozen in place as the pig that sat in her mother’s face continued to gobble at whatever was in front of her.

There was something grotesque about her mother being treated like that. A frog-like spirit appeared from behind the counter and beat the pig with a flyswatter as if she was some common pest. Adore covered her ears as she heard the pleading squeals from the sow that used to be her mother. She jumped when Bonnie eventually fell down. There was nothing she could have done at this point. Many more spirits surrounded Adore, signalling the human to run for her life. She had clearly seen enough in one day.

The girl remembered her path the best that she could. She spotted the clock tower in the distance; she knew the exit was closer than she thought. Adore ran down the steps, nearly tripping over her own feet. She could have been seriously injured if not for the body of water that caught her. For a split second, she wished she could have sunk to the bottom of the makeshift lake, or at least she’d become a mermaid and swim to safety. Alas, she couldn’t swim that fast and she couldn’t even drive yet. She was simply stuck.

She came face to face with an oncoming riverboat. For all she knew, it could have been manned by ghosts as well. She was able to make out a few figures at it reared closer to shore. It was almost like Noah’s Ark in a sense that the inhabitants were mostly animal spirits. They were conversing; she could overhear bits of small talk. It was like they couldn’t even notice the sopping wet human off in the distance.

Adore crouched down and curled herself into a ball. This had to be a dream, right? She hoped she was still in the car drooling over her shirt and covered in the petals from Laganja’s wilting flowers. She and her human mother would be at the house by now, and she’d get around to settling in her room with a phone at full charge. She rocked back and forth with her head in her hand. “Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck! Wake up, goddammit!” Adore slapped herself. “Just go away…” She muttered after calming down. She realized soon enough how poor of a word choice that was.

As she attempted to shield her eyes from the boat’s lights, it was all in vain. She could see the boat through her hand. In time, the boat docked and the animals disembarked while continuing their conversations. As soon as they touched the land, something strange happened. They transformed into more humanoid states. Some of the spirits still had hints of their true forms though. There were ones with beaks and webbed fingers; some still had their original ears and tails as well.

Adore quickly backed away into a corner, hoping to not be noticed. Although it wasn’t like she was going to due to her current state. She crawled up a hill when she was fully out of the procession’s line of sight. When she went to a haven of safety, she crawled back into a ball. All she felt like doing more than anything was to fully disappear into the nothingness that surrounded her. She was taken out of her daze by someone tapping on her shoulder. Adore jumped slightly and turned towards the touch; it was the girl again.

“Don’t worry. I’m trying to help here.” She shoved a berry towards Adore’s lips. “Please. Eat this. You need to eat something from this world in order to stay in this world.”

“Aren’t you gonna apologize for fucking pushing me?” Adore tried to push her back in retaliation, but it was no use. She had simply passed through.

“Alright, I might have been a bit harsh. Are you going to eat this or not? I promise it won’t turn you into a pig.”

The redhead opened her mouth, letting the berry fall into her mouth. She chewed as her face twisted, reacting to the taste. It was a little tart for her taste and not very filling, but if she needed to eat to save her life, then so be it. Her shoulders dropped, becoming less tense. She didn’t know why, but she felt so much calmer around this stranger.

“There we go,” The blonde held her hand and squeezed it lightly, “You’re here. You’re alive. You’re okay.” Her touch felt strange to Adore. Her hands were rough, but not calloused. It was as if they were covered in something other than skin. Scales perhaps? She was cautious enough not to rub the wrong way.

“I’m okay,” she parroted back at the woman.

“You see? Now, come with me.”

“Wait!” Adore yanked the standing girl’s arm, bringing her back down to eye-level. The blonde sat down and listened attentively. “What about my mom? She didn’t really turn into a pig, right?” She asked as if she didn’t see her transform in front of her. Hopefully, this was merely a trick of the eye or her brain was making her see things from fatigue. It had already been a long enough day; the last thing she wanted to do was cry.

“You’ll get to see her soon enough, but not right now.” She put a hand on her shoulder, but quickly stopped herself. There was danger lurking around and she could sense it. “Fuck,” she muttered under her breath, pulling the human into her and shielding her body from the force that followed her. “Don’t move.” Adore couldn’t help but stare upward.

There was a large black bird, no bigger than a vulture, circling the area. The strangest thing about it was the head. Instead of a beak and feathers, it was a shrunken human head. She couldn’t quite make out what or who the head was supposed to resemble, but the face didn’t seem happy. After a few more swoops, she clung to the person, enjoying her protective nature and the touches.

“I think we’re good. Let’s go.” The woman attempted to bring the young human to her feet, but couldn’t. It was like her legs refused to move.

“Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no…” Adore hyperventilated, but was quickly shushed.

“Calm down. Take a breath. Can you do that for me?” Adore nodded her head while the mysterious woman smiled. “Lemme… do this real quick. In the name of the waters and earth beneath me, unbind this girl from the land.” Her hands glowed a radiant white and Adore stood up, as if by magic.

“That thing is probably after you. We have to get you out. Now.” Before she could properly thank her rescuer, the magical woman gripped her palm and started to run.

And off they went.

Summer In Jersey - The Garden State Hip Hop Hour’s Richard Scott

By: Natalee Gilbert

In a land full of snakes, the Garden State is far from one.

Composed of only free spirits who "ride that wave" at all cost, New Jerseyans put on for their hometowns. As a union, they mostly have sleepless nights and quick snooze sessions throughout the day. But alone, they come from different backgrounds that helped them grow.

Even so, there is one thing that all residents can agree on: Summer In Jersey lives up to all of New Jersey's hype.

When you tune into Summer In Jersey, expect songs that highlight New Jersey's undying pride and summer functions. As one part of the compilation references to the club (or klerb as others might say), the others fall in line as beach, flex or nightclub anthems. Besides this, Summer In Jersey carries a three-part skit by The Infinite Nudist. Essentially its all about a friend who is convincing another to go with him to the beach. Then, a girl whos fed up with his distant ways as they go to the shore and it closes off with a late-night "You Up?" call from a friend who tries to convince the other to leave and go to a lituation.

A few notable tracks like "Mexico Bity (Cliquot Mix)", "Dollar Sign Malc", "Sorry Not Sorry", "Maria", "Can I Call You', "Black Pool Party" and "Invited" help tourist get the jist of what it's like to live in a goal-driven yet party oriented state. The 21 piece collective is curated by The Garden State Hip Hop Hour's boss man, Richard Scott who sought to make a timeless summer tape that everyone can enjoy.

Cued into a section of every song, Siri does her part in announcing that it's a "Garden State Hi-Hop Hour Exclusive."

The first song "Valentino" by Chad B is moreso a flex track that seperates itself with self-reflection and words of encouragement. One reason why he's able to shine is because of the daily grind. Still, his success mostly stems from an undeniable skill with rhyme schemes and autotune. Following in unison is a "diamond-in-the-rough" beat that embellishes on the obstacles he's encountered. But Chad B teaches all that there is a silver lining if you just believe and focus on yourself.

"Bad Girls Only” by Melo V is a salute to all those women working 9 to 5s! The beat is influenced by pop, techno even some R&B but the power of the track is held by Melo's strong, melodic vocal play. "Bad Girls Only" really allows women to let loose and enjoy themselves.

Fourth in line, "No Way" by Trophy Hitta Sage keeps up the momentum especially with this one liner, "Wearing yellow in the summer, you're a bright catch." Like Chad B. she uses auto-tune but its a bit more airy and passionate. At most "No Way" is a techno/hip-hop track. Trophy Hitta Sage uses the beat to speak about a girl whos got her going crazy and she just wants to know whats up.

Then theres "Invited" by BUMPPRO, a track thats quite infectious and falls as an anthem to those who don't get invited to the "off-the-wall" parties. Sonically "Invited" dabbles into rock but then carries on with futuristic synthesizers, techno and auto-tune. The song speaks about a party next door that BUMPPRO has heard about but he wasn't invited to. Nevertheless he's with the hype and is going anyway because everyone needs to let loose every now and then. The best line thus far from "Invited" is "Sounds like a sick party bouncing off the wall/ I got a case, I got a bottle. But I look fly, I came to party/f*ck those problems."

In pursuit "Act Up" by Rich Smiles stresses the projects care-free flair. It's hard to fit "Act Up" 's genre into one because of the R&B vocals at hand with a dancehall and caribbean feel. Here, he sings about a women has caught his attention but he's not looking for commitment. To have her for one night is enough and he won't let anything (or anyone) stand in his way. The highlight of "Act Up" is when Rich Smiles does a vocal run on the phrases "back up" in chorus and "act up". He really cranks up the heat with his ability to alter R&B's main focal point on love.

'Intentions" by Ganja Killz and "Zaya" take a similar approach. Driven by latin and caribbean vibes, they both use soothing vocals so listeners can feel at ease. Besides this, their native tongue pays homage to where they’re from. It’s nothing but tropical slashed with a whole lot of sultry energy.

Next, “Mexico Bity (Cliquot City)” by Killa Klerk Cobain travels back to Spanish Harlem. Killa Klerk Cobain gives glory to Jersey Club and uses it to drive the beat selection. But really, its to show listeners that people in New Jersey “really just be vibin’.” This track is solely for those who are looking to have a good time. So the tango might as well go on!

Fast forward and "Jersey Anthem" by GrooveBoyPut ft. Dougie F., Tsu Surf, Sonny Breeze, Crunch Calhoun, Albee Al Daddy pave the way for all New Jersey artists to keep going! Just like them, they've been through the struggle but still conquered. Now they're realistically living their dreams. For those who weren't there for the long haul, just know these emcees hold weight. They're coming with the pounds and don't care what others think regardless!

"For The Low" by $uper Drug$ ft.Threat Digga says it all in the title. Proficient in the ways of trapping and counting blue faces, these two only wreak havoc when someone disturbs their peace. Beat wise, "For The Low" takes the aggressive approach. These two do justice in being blunt, flexing and collecting their coins discreetly.

Now if there comes a time when a jam for night drives is needed, then "All Summer" by Dollar Sign Malc is the perfect fit. Because it gives off a 90's vibe, "All Summer" will be the only thing that shines this season. To summarize, this song fits all occasions like going to the beach or riding around the town with a shawty. Same applies for "Can I Call You?" by Najir. Even though it leans more towards a early 2000's sound, its still something with hype due to the Jersey Club influence. Najir in this song speaks about how hes in need for love and doesn't want to lose his girl.

Funnily enough, "Maria" by Smooch also speaks on a love whos got the artist stuck. Like “Mexico Bity (Cliquot City)” the beat takes a trip to South America and uses some boom bap flair. On a vocal standpoint, he hits more notes than rhymes but he excels when dabbling into the two.

"Te Fallo" by Lilskrt4k feat. Chris Cruz is similar to 'Intentions" and "Zaya". Same tropical sound with a bit of reggaeton but theres more energy and switch between Spanish and English. Seems like this song is speaking about doing anything for love also. The part that gets me is the ad-libs. It really makes one feel like they're on an island.

To say the least, "We Jus" by Bulletproof Belv tells all about summer flings. Although they're great in the moment, it's really short-lived once the leaves turn brown. "We Jus" beat leans into the trap side. But because of the background drums and snares, it distinguishes itself as a summer vibe. Overall "We Jus" is a song to play when it's just too hard to say "this is a DTF situation."

On the other hand, "Sorry Not Sorry" by GrooveBoyPut and Smoove The Rapper goes in the opposite direction. GrooveBoyPut and Smoove The Rapper are really feeling this girl but shes done them dirty so now they've started to care less. Because of the drums in back and xclophone, it categorizes itself as a summer anthem. Still, "Sorry Not Sorry" has some trap influence and can easily be mistaken as another flex or derogatory song. All in all "Sorry Not Sorry" is a song for the heartbroken. It goes hard on self-liberation and leaves no room for tears or empathy.

"See This" by DOMS is worth all the hype. Trap-ridden at its own leisure, DOMS dares anyone to step up because it'll be them against him and his boys. Equally important, DOMS flexes at an all time high. One line that speaks volume is, "Gotta make those sacrifices if you want to beat them."

Like the last track, "To the 6ix" by A-Money$ is a trap song. Aside from highlighting his luxurious trips around the world, "To the 6ix" doesn't forget to talk about the exotic women and drip that he easily obtains.

Next to last, "Can't Be" by Honey gives off a bittersweet feeling. A once mutual love, Honey catches on to her mans sneaky ways. Thus she can’t help but to be hard on herself for not noticing sooner. Following is Honey's emotionally captivating vocals and a beat that pulls heart strings.

Finally, Summer In Jersey closes off with a lucid song called "Black Pool Party (CLICQUOT MIX)" by Clicquot Geno and Jet Lyte. Contrary to the beat, these two go all in with smooth sailing vocals and confidence. Some can even go so far as to say that "Black Pool Party" is making waves. Don't believe me? Listen for yourself. This song basically speaks on how they have no time for the B.S. and how certain individuals are now trying to swim on their stream of fortune. To summarize, the R&B and hip-hop influences run deep.

Rookie of the Year: 2 - LH

Hey Guys. Here’s part two of Rookie of the Year. Also, has anyone seen the fact we’re GETTING A NEW 5SOS SONG?! Let me know what you think of this part of the story, and also your reactions to their posts and the song.

Warnings: Recreational drug usage (Weed, ganja, marijuana, mary jane. Whatever you wanna call it.)

Portland had been good for the UCLA baseball team. They won all three games by a large margin and Luke had pitched very, very well. Better than expected, if it was even possible It was almost enough for y/n to leave him alone for the rest of preseason...but almost was the key word.

“So I think you should set up a specific training routine for Luke, and maybe even the backup pitchers just in case something happens to Luke we can’t control. It would help with his speed and consistency, mostly,” she said while looking over Luke’s stats from that previous weekend while sitting in her brother’s office in the athletic center on campus. Nick could only roll his eyes and smirk at her, y/n not noticing one bit, so focused on the paper in front of her. “His batting average could be better too.”

“Y/n..cut him some slack. he gave up maybe ten runs this weekend out of all three games. And I may not even have him bat this year to protect him and his arm. He’s doing great. I don’t want to scare the kid into going somewhere else. He’s gonna do great things here,” he said as she rolled her eyes.

“He could make it pro, Nicky. He’s got a real shot at it. We need to think about him, not just UCLA,” she said, her voice completely serious. “He’s another you, although I still don’t get why you chose not to get drafted.”

“I don’t even know if that’s what the kid wants to do...and we don’t talk about it,” he said sitting back in his chair taking a sip of his water. “Why don’t you ask him about getting drafted since you were up his ass all weekend and haven't stopped. Or, better yet, why don’t you talk to him like a normal human and not a baseball crazed woman. I’m sure you’re scaring him. It’s not gonna help if you’re trying to date him.”

“Oh shut up Nicky,” she mumbled rolling her eyes looking back down at the sheet of paper with Luke’s face on it, bright dimpled grin as he smiled for the photo taken on media day.

“You going to the boys’ party tonight?” he asked as he watched her shrug putting the stats on his desk. “Maybe you’ll see Luke” he teased as she threw her pencil at him causing him to laugh. “What?”

“I’m not going to date your pitcher. I don’t even like him like that,” she grumbled as he chuckled. “Stop laughing at me.”

“Go to the party and have fun, okay? Otherwise I’ll call Ashton and tell him to make sure you go. Now go get ready for practice. You’re working with Geoff today on conditioning them.”

She wasn’t a party person. Drinking didn’t bother her and neither did the drugs. It was the people that bothered her. She’d rather sit in her dorm room with two or three friends and watch a movie while drinking or smoking. That was fine, but throw her into a large house with over one hundred strangers, that was a different story.

Y/n was currently sitting outside, blunt in hand, as she inhaled the smoke to hopefully slightly ease her nerves. She closed her eyes breathing out the smoke sighing happily loving the feeling of the high.

“Is Bossy actually letting loose?” Luke asked standing by the door, red solo cup in hand as he watched her. Her body was relaxed, hair up in her signature bun. She had traded her usual shorts and long sleeve shirt for a pair of daisy dukes and crop top. She looked great, he wasn’t going to lie.

“I am, barely” she said before taking another hit, eyes fixed on his as she blew the smoke out slowly once again. “You smoke before?” He shook his head slowly, curls bouncing on his head as she waved him over to sit with her on the bench.

“But what about drug testing…?” he asked softly, legs moving towards her as he took the spot next to her despite his question.

“I promise you they aren’t drug testing for another month” she said before relighting the piece puffing it to make sure it was lit before handing it to him. “Just inhale it as you would if you were smoking anything. Don’t hit it to hard though” she said watching him take the hit, inhaling the smoke getting ready to blow it out until she covered his mouth with her hand. “Hold it for a bit,” she instructed in a whisper dangerously close to his face before moving her hand letting him breathe the smoke out.

“That wasn’t too bad,” he said before letting out a few coughs, a laugh escaping her lips hearing him cough as she took another hit from the rolled up cannabis. “Can I do another?”

“You can do as many as you want” she said letting the smoke escape handing it back to him. They passed the rolled blunt back and forth between the two of them, a comfortable silence filling the air as they smoked.

“So why are you out here alone?” he asked as she put out the roach in one of Ashton’s flower pots on the porch knowing she’d hear about it later from him.

“I’m not a huge party person. Nicky told me to go out tonight so here I am,” she shrugged taking out her backwoods starting to roll another blunt. “What about you?”

“I don’t like crowds,” he shrugged, the high starting to hit him all at once, and she noticed smiling softly laughing at him. “What?”

“You look wrecked is all” she said smiling softly pouring her crushed up bud into the long piece of paper, skillfully rolling it evenly and tightly before giving the edge a good look and sealing it. “Wanna shotgun?” she asked before lighting the blunt, Luke’s head cocking to the side not exactly sure what she meant by shotgun.

“I have no idea what that is…,” he said softly as she laughed softly.

“Okay...close your eyes and I’ll show you,” she said softly watching as his eyes fluttered closed shutting out the blue orbs as he did what she said. She took a long hit of her blunt before pressing her lips to his letting the smoke flow from her to him, her free hand cupping his cheek. Luke’s eyes shot open in surprise noticing she was kissing him, quickly relaxing letting her do what she wanted. He brought his his hand to her waist pulling her closer to him gently as she pulled away, the excess smoke floating into the air as he breathed out his own portion.

“Wow..” he mumbled softly as she bit her lip sitting back quickly taking another hit trying to calm her body down before offering him a hit. “Where did tha-,” he started before being cut off by Ashton coming out looking for her.

“Y/n, there you are, I need your help,” he said biting his lip softly looking at her not knowing what he had just interrupted, but very desperate for the girl he had known for so long. She sighed softly nodding handing Luke the rest of the blunt that still had small wisps of smoke flowing from the tip.

“Here you go Hemmings. Finish it up before I come back,” she said before going into the house with Ashton a bit confused about what he could want, Luke’s eyes trained on her retreating figure the entire time more than a little upset Ashton had interrupted their moment...not even really sure if that’s what he could call it.

“You did what?” Calum asked choking on his coffee. They were sitting in a small cafe just off campus trying to kill their hangovers with caffeine and carbs.

Luke hadn’t seen her the rest of the night, Luke having gone inside to try to find her after he finished the blunt, but according to the guys she had left with Ashton who had left his own party, no one really knowing why. Luke had been trying to keep his mind at ease all night worrying about if she was actually into him, if ashton was into her, why they had left so abruptly...so many thoughts swimming through his mind that kept him from sleeping, none of the thoughts helping when his head was buried in the porcelain throne from the ten shots he took right after that only made his thoughts worse.

“Well she asked if I wanted to shotgun and I didn’t know what she meant because I’ve never even seen weed until yesterday, and then she tells me to close my eyes. Next thing I know, she’s kissing me and there’s smoke going in my mouth,” he explained quickly, a small blush on his face as Calum chuckled softly. “What?”

“You’re whipped,” he teased as Luke rolled his eyes, Calum’s eyes flicking to the door as he heard the bell. “Speaking of said female, she just showed up with Ashton.” Luke’s head turned quickly seeing the two walk in looking around before both of them started heading to the table spotting Calum and Luke.

“Morning,” Ashton said taking a seat next to Calum, y/n sitting down next to Luke quietly as she took the menu from Luke looking at it.

“Good morning to you two sunshine,” Luke mumbled softly watching her. They were both off, seeming a bit distant since the previous night.

“You weren’t looking at it,” she said not looking over at him. Her eyes seemed a bit puffy and red and her hair was up sloppier than usual. She was also wearing the same pants from last night, this time sported with a shirt he recognized that Ashton had worn in the weight room earlier that year and his heart sunk.

“We gonna talk about yesterday?” he mumbled so only she could hear waiting for a reaction. Her face didn’t falter and she didn’t look uncomfortable in the slightest.

“Not the time or place,” she mumbled back, menu closing when she had decided on the plate she wanted before looking at him to see a frown on his pouty lips. “What?”

“If you two fucked you can just say it,” he said not trying to be quiet now, Calum and Ashton listening in on their conversation now, a frown on both their lips.

“Excuse me?” she asked turning to face him cocking her head to the side.

“You heard me,” he said crossing his arms, Calum and Ashton both shocked.

“No, Luke, I didn’t fuck Ashton last night,” she said seething, silently thanking they were only one of two tables in the establishment. “In fact, I haven’t even laid down or slept since after practice. If you wanna talk, fine, let’s talk. You and I fucking kissed once and we were high. Once. I’m not your girlfriend, or even close to being your girlfriend, asshole. You know absolutely nothing about me. So, you boys enjoy your breakfast, I’m going to bed,” she said sliding out of the booth and leaving the establishment where they resided. Luke bit his lip nervously looking to Calum and Ashton, the both of them glaring, shaking their head at the younger once sitting in front of them.

“Good going, Hemmings. Good luck fixing this one,” Ashton said shaking his head as he groaned. “You’re really fucked up Luke. I suggest you try and fix this before coach finds out.”
