Alana: Hey my favorite people ever.
Brittany: Hi weirdo.
Madison: Hey!
Alana: Maddie, I have something to ask you. Are you weirded out by the fact that Nathaniel and I are friends?
Madison: Not at all. I'm cool with it.
Alana: Well, we're kind of a thing now.
Brittany: Aww. That's cute.
Madison: *she smiled* That's cool. I'm happy for you kiddo.
Brittany: So when am I getting nieces and nephews? *They all laughed*
Alana: Are you sure you guys are okay with it? I don't want it to be weird if he comes around.
Madison: Stop worrying Lana. Everything is good. As long as you're happy.
Alana: I love you guys so much! *she embraced Madison and Brittany in a hug*
Madison: I love you too Lana.
Brittany: *she teased* Even when you seem to be losing screws.
Madison: I hope this doesn't mean you're gonna ghost us.
Alana: Never!
Brittany: We'll see.
*Later that day, Madison was walking to her class when she saw Alana and Nathaniel talking. They both waved. She smiled half-heartedly and waved back. She knew she needed to be happy for her friend so, she tried not to sulk about it. She made a plan to be as supportive as possible. Bryan drew her away from her thoughts*
Bryan: Hey you. *he gestured for a hug and Madison gave in*
Madison: Are you ever at your classes?
Bryan: Only the one where I get to see you. *he smiled*
Madison: You shouldn't be proud about that. *she laughed*
Bryan: Well, I am and there's nothing you can do to change that.
Madison: I will keep that in mind. Where are you headed to?
Bryan: I figured I'd get something to eat since my teacher isn't here today.
Madison: Lucky you. I wish I could say that too.
Bryan: Same. Then we could spend an hour doing anything.
Madison: Yeah, I really need a break.
Bryan: Have you thought about my question yet?
Madison: I have. I just don't have an answer for you yet.
Bryan: *he smiled*No pressure. I'm not going anywhere. I really want you to be mine.
Madison: You're cute. *she smiled* I got to get to class so, we'll talk later, okay?
Bryan: Bye, angel.
*Later that day*
Nathaniel: You really live under a rock. How have you not watched Captain America yet?
Madison: Some of us actually have a life that includes doing good school and talking to people.
Nathaniel: That's a lame-ass excuse.
Madison: Think whatever you want.
Alana: You should watch it. It's a great movie.
Brittany: You're not missing out, girl.
Madison: I'll watch it one day. Eventually.
Brittany: Ugh! I'm so tired of this laptop always shutting down.
Madison: Struggles of a high school student. *she laughed* You need a new one, honey.
Brittany: Facts. I feel I might throw it into the wall one day.
Madison: That I'd pay to see.
Nathaniel: You're totally boring to the point where you'd find anything entertaining.
Madison: Your point? Hey Brit, I finally listened to that song you recommended. It's fire!
Brittany: I told you I had a good taste in music. Y'all are just sleeping on me.
Madison: Calm down and take the compliment.
Brittany: I thank you, bye.
Madison: *she laughed* You are so dramatic.
**OVER TEXT**
Nathaniel: You look cute when you're tense or upset.
Madison: Nathaniel.
Nathaniel: I can't make jokes anymore?
Madison: I didn't get the joke.
Nathaniel: How are you and Bryan?
Madison: We're great. He asked me to be his girlfriend.
Nathaniel: Did you say yes?
Madison: You are unbelievable. I'm not yours anymore. Stop doing that.
Nathaniel: I just asked a question.
Madison: This is not game, Nathaniel.
