☆love lost~ drew starkey☆

☆seventeen☆

after a long day on set, the cast decided to have a dinner together to unwind and catch up since they didn't get to talk a lot during the week outside of scenes.

they decided on a potluck and madelyn would be hosting this time. dahlia got ready then headed over to rudy's so he could drive her and they could show up together.

they were the last two to arrive, everyone was casually talking in different groups; megan was glued to drew's side.

the friends all joined at the table and were eating while engaging in casual conversation, "you were a cheerleader in highschool?" rudy smiled at dahlia.

"yeah for a little while, i quit pretty early on" she shrugged.

"yeah because her mom died" megan laughed, the entire table went quiet; drew looked down embarrassed as megan looked around at everyone who glared at her "what? it's true".

dahlia cleared her throat "yes, that's why i quit. thank you for bringing up great memories megan" dahlia rolled her eyes.

rudy placed his hand on top of dahlia's hand "I'm so sorry babe, i had no idea" he consoled her, dahlia looked at rudy with a sad smile on her face and kissed him on the cheek.

"i wanna know what drew was like in highschool jonathan smirked at dahlia, trying to break the silence.

"total nerd!" dahlia declared.

"oh that is so unfair!" drew smiled "i was going through an awkward stage"

"for four years?!" dahlia laughed "it's ok that you didn't hit puberty until you were 18 drew, no need to be embarrased"

"if he was so awkward in highschool then why were you so obsessed with him dahlia?" megan cut in again.

the groups laughter quickly died down "i wouldn't say it was an obsession, i think our friendship was pretty equal, yeah?" dahlia looked at drew.

drew nodded

"oh come on, you practically threw yourself at him when he was with me! and then he used you for sex for months until he could have me again" megan sneered

"you're gonna let her talk to me like this?" dahlia asked drew.

drew stayed quiet

"he agrees with me dahlia! you were a slut then and now you're a homie hopper... are you this way because your mom died?!" megan spat.

dahlia swiftly stood up from the table "fuck you" she looked at megan then turned to drew "and fuck you for allowing her to speak to me this way, you're not the person i thought you were".

dahlia walked out of the room with rudy quickly following beside her, when they got out of the house rudy wrapped his arms around her to comfort her as she cried.

"fuck both of them" he said calmly "dee, i want to be together, like actually be together" he announced.

dahlia looked up at him through tear stained eyes "fuck it" she smiled.
