first fight

NEIL
• neil came running down the hallway with a big smile on his face
• you had just come from the bathroom and his eyes spotted you quickly
• he grabbed your arm and dragged you into his dorm room
• he started typing something on his typewriter without telling you what
• "neil, what is going on?"
• "i'm writing a letter."
• "to who?"
• "to the theater director."
• "but- didn't-"
• you were beyond confused
• "yeah i know" he let out. "i got the part."
• he smiled up at you
• "what part?"
• "puck. a midsummer nights dream? ring a bell?"
• you could feel your eyes drying and a drop in your stomach
• "neil, you never told me you were auditioning..."
• "god, y/n, you sound like my father." he shook off.
• "sorry. i just wish you had told- me..."
• you stopped suddenly when you saw who he addressed the letter from
• you felt disappointed
• "neil, c'mon. don't do that. you're gonna regret it."
• he stayed silent as he continued to take out the letter and envelope
• "neil, you heard me, don't do it. please."
• "are you suggesting i tell my father?"
• "so what, maybe i am. better to be honest than deliberately disobey him. you know what'll happen."
• "no i don't y/n. because you're so wise why don't you just tell me?"
• "you know he'll make you attend a different school."
• at this point both of you were yelling
• "maybe that wouldn't be so fucking bad."
• "what? you'll just leave me here neil?"
• "i'd risk that to do this play."
• "you are pathetic." you shouted before storming out of his dorm

CHARLIE
• when your twin, gerard had told you that your boyfriend had brought two girls to one of their dps meetings, you were absolutely gutted, but couldn't show him because he still didn't know
• you ignored his calls, letters, and random gifts
• at some point he started to realize you were ignoring him so he came to visit you
• of course when he came to the door your mother just told him that you weren't there, even though your rolls royce was still parked in the gravel driveway
• when it came time for christmas parties which happened to be about two months after charlie brought the girls to the dps meeting, and your family was hosting one, all the dps boys came
• your brother hadn't told you this and obviously didn't think anything of it, so when you saw todd and meeks talking in your kitchen, you were quite frustrated knowing that charlie was definitely there
• you panicked and left to go to your room
• when you turned around you accidentally bumped into someone
• their drink spilled all over your expensive dress
• when you met the eyes of the boy you had been avoiding for at least two months, you couldn't help but let a tear fall
• you brushed his shoulder cruelly and ran up to your room
• he followed you, making more tears fall
• you slammed your door and tried to change your dress, but every single option just didn't feel right
• you fell to the ground in your bra and underwear in tears
• your door slowly opened and you silenced your cries
• charlie pitifully looked at you
• you let more tears flow as you stood up and grabbed a robe
• "why haven't we talked?"
• you stayed quiet
• "c'mon y/n, what happened?"
• "fuck off"
• "just tell me."
• "ask tina and gloria."
• "are you really mad about that?"
• "you wouldn't even let me go, charlie, that's why i'm mad. you were a dick for doing that."
• "what for bringing two girls?"
• "how do you not see how bad that looks?"
• he stayed quiet
• "when my brother told me, i couldn't believe it. you told me no girls were allowed. even on campus without permission."
• "but-"
• "don't even try to give me excuses. you know how much i cared about you. i just wish you could've done the bare minimum and care too, but you couldn't even fucking do that charlie."
• "you don't know y/n. you don't know much i love you. i risked my friendship with your brother for you. i did everything for you."
• you stood there in shock as he walked back to the door
• "maybe think before you speak." he said before slamming the door

TODD
• you two sat on his dorm bed during your weekly visit, laughing and talking with neil
• once he left, you turned to todd and giggled lightly from his anxious expression
• you both stared at each other, then started kissing
• it started to become a heated make out session
• you took off your blouse and his face went red, before you tried to take off his sweater
• he stopped you and turned to the side
• you were confused
• "what's wrong todd?"
• he thought for a bit before saying, "i don't know if i'm cut out for this kind of stuff..."
• "what do you mean?"
• "well... that..." he looked to your bra
• you got embarrassed and grabbed your blouse, putting it back on
• "is that better?"
• "no i mean like kissing and sex and everything involving that."
• "why?"
• "you don't have to know everything y/n."
• "well i'm sorry for trying to help you through it." you said bitterly
• "for fuck's sake y/n."
• "what? what have i done todd? tell me."
• "you haven't once tried to help me through it, so stop acting like it." he barely got out
• you stared at his red face and shaking hands
• "are you trying to break up with me?"
• "no, no. i- i'm just saying i think we need some time apart to figure this out."
• "it's not my fault we don't have any sexual tension todd. that's all you."
• "well it's also not my fault that you force this kind of stuff on me. it's exhausting."
• you felt a tear fall down your cheek
• you quickly stood up and left, hoping he got the message

KNOX
• you two were at another party at chet's house
• when the both of you got there, you started to feel insecure because you thought chris looked much better than you and you knew knox used to like her so you held onto him like a puppy for the night
• at some point you had left to go talk to your friends and you felt someone grab you by the waist
• it was your ex boyfriend
• he pulled you into the kitchen and tried to kiss your neck and collarbone but you winced and tried to mull him off
• once you got him off of you, there you saw knox making out with chris
• your ears heated up and you tried to hide your tears
• you ran out of the room to get chet, hoping he could do something to take chris off of him
• "i told you i'd kill you man."
• knox looked up, confused until chet grabbed chris
• he put an arm around her and asked if she was okay
• they were both obviously drunk
• when knox looked back, you weren't there anymore
• "where'd she go?"
• "she left you dickhead." chet told him
• he left the house quickly before finding your car running
• you tried to keep in your sobs as you lit a cigarette standing against the side of it
• "y/n."
• "don't even try."
• "i'm sorry-"
• "sorry isn't gonna cut it knox. you fucking made out with my best friend."
• "but i don't even remember that."
• "yeah because you're so drunk that you can't even walk straight."
• "y/n please believe me i didn't mean too."
• "would you shut the fuck up? you already did so stop trying to make me believe you didn't. i was a fucking idiot to think you were actually over her."
• "y/n-"
• "did i not just ask you to fucking shut up? you are an asshole and i never want to talk to you again. you ruined it, it is your fault knox, and i hope that bears on you."
• you got in your car and slammed the door before driving back to your house
