Connected Hearts (GxG×G×G)

Eighteen

Content warning / Authors note - This is going to do a complete 180 from last chapter , but there is a serious section that briefly discusses non consensual acts that Twyla has endured. 

But after that , it's mostly non serious content , but they do discuss sexual topics. 

BONUS WARNING - If you find marijuana use to be offensive , one , wrong story wrong author darling , and two , they are all legal adults consenting in the partaking of such activity. They are all over the age of 21 and using it in a state where it is legal. (Also , this is fiction love <3 But also , I do not in any way indorse the usage of any illegal substances !)

After about twenty more minutes of talking about our first section , and the three of us pulling ourselves together , we decide to take a mental break. Get something to drink , splash water on our faces , take a smoke break...

Currently , Bel and I are sitting in our back yard sharing our most unhealthy coping skill. We may have told Carson we were only using the nicotine one... Meanwhile , Bel and I are passing this shit back and forth like it's an air mask and we are losing oxygen. 

I unfortunately picked up the nasty habit of vaping after my break up. I had done good for a really long time , I technically starting smoking when I was thirteen... But then I started vaping after finding the flavor more appealing for my taste. 

But thankfully , kind of , Bellamy is the one that got me back into smoking canabis when we started hanging out more. It's very much our worst habit. 

As we pass each of our devices back and forth , contemplating if we've just made a terrible mistake , or we were just being bad role models as Carson sits with Twyla inside , helping her come back too. 

It's honestly probably both. 

"Jue ," Bellamy speaks , pulling me from my thoughts. I can tell the drug is hitting her as her voice is more raspy. 

I pull my focus from facing on the floor in front of me , to my partner in crime smirking wickedly at me. 

"Yes , ma'am ?" I say sarcastically , the drug definitely taking effect in my system. 

She smiles at me with a fake pout. "I think Carson's gonna yell at us." She says , squinting her eyes slightly. 

"You're damn right she is." Carson says , coming out of no where. She quickly makes her way around the corner so we can see her. She steps off of the deck as she rounds the corner , taking an annoyed stance starting at us with such distain. "Seriously ?"

Bellamy and I just kind of stare blankly at her , not knowing what to do. She crosses her arms over her chest , looking at her with her , 'I'm so disappointed' face. 

"She literally just told us that she didn't like weed , and you guys are out here getting high off you asses." She said annoyed. I turn around and look at Bel with a certain look on my face.

She's doing 'I'm stern and scary Mommy' thing.

We silently laugh to one another at her behavior , but decide to press against it , knowing there will be consequences if we do.

"Sorry , love." Bel says standing , handing me the two devices. "That was.. Just..." Bel raises her hands and gives a small shrug. "It was a lot to process all at once , and June and I just needed to take a brain break."

I've always found it kind of hilarious that every time the two of us do something bad together , even if it's my idea , she'll take my defense and make sure none of the blame is on me.
