"Okay, take me back through the track list one more time," Olivia paced the familiar ground of Dan's garage.
Dan groaned, throwing his head back on the couch, "Again?"
"Just do it, Daniel" Olivia rushed out, the day having already been stressful enough.
He sighed, "brutal. traitor. drivers license. 1 step, 3 step. deja vu. good 4 u. enough for you. happier. jealousy, jealousy. favorite crime."
"It's missing something, I just can't pinpoint it," she plops onto Dan's worn out couch.
"We can always save it for tomorrow, Liv. Really, I think you're giving yourself too many deadlines. This is your album, you keep forgetting that."
"Then why's it all about someone else?" She drops her head in her hands.
Dan rolls his eyes, pitiful of the girl who remained heartbroken. He scoots closer to her, rubbing circles on her back.
"Tell you what, take the rest of the day off. This isn't a normal job, remember? Just go home and if you think of something, just write it down so it can be used tomorrow."
"That doesn't sound too bad."
"I know it doesn't, now get out of here!"

"Shawnnn?" Minnie called from the kitchen.
"Yeah?" He calls from his spot on the couch.
"You don't have any ice cream?" She frowned at the near-empty freezer.
Shawn strode into the kitchen, peering into the cold abyss, "Hmm, guess not. I do have frozen green beans, though!" He smiles, and Minnie almost expected a twinkle to appear at the corner of his pearls.
She stared blankly back at him, discontent with his food supply clear.
"Alright, not a fan of green beans, got it," Shawn chuckles as Minnie shuts the freezer, sighing as she leans against the kitchen island.
"Tell you what, we can go out for ice cream after I finish this episode," Shawn shuffles over to the girl, his hands on either side of her as they leaned against the marble.
"Has Violet died yet?"
"WHat? No! I didn't know she died????"
Minnie cups the boy's cheeks, "Well, now you do! No need to continue!" She double taps his face, "Let's go get ice cream!" She yips, heading straight for the door.
Shawn remains in place, shaking his head hoping the blush of his cheeks falls and never crawls back up.
"Shawn!" She calls from the door.
"I'm coming!" he croaks.

Minnie paced the room, Shawn's head waving to each side she wasn't on as he struggled to gage view of the television.
"Fuck, she's gonna ruin me," she murmured.
"The fans aren't that bad," Shawn tried, giving up on his fight to watch TV as he laid back.
"It's not the fans I'm worried about. It's me, Shawn." Minnie straddled his lap.
Pause. Super quick recap: Minnie is gay. She's gay even if she doesn't want to be. Any physical affection shown towards Shawn is done out of utter friendship. That's Platonic with a capital P.
