❝ is it the sound of your own thoughts that always keep you up at night? ❞
THE two girls had been sitting in complete silence, having no clue what to talk about. Today was a whirlwind of emotions for Juniper.
She was coerced into attending the dance with a notorious playboy, and then he had the nerve to disregard her, choosing to socialize with his female friends. And to make matters worse, at that very dance-
"Are you asleep?" whispered Lynn, snapping Juniper out of her thoughts.
"Yes."
Lynn subtly rolled her eyes, knowing Juniper was oblivious to her reaction. "Ha, ha, very funny."
Lynn was oblivious to the fact that Juniper knew her very well. "Keep rolling your eyes and they'll be stuck in that position, Lynnie."
Lynn grimaced at the nickname. "Don't call me that, like, ever again."
Juniper grinned, knowing how easily she could get under Lynn's skin. "Don't think so, Lynnie."
Lynn groaned in annoyance, followed by a giggle from Juniper.
They fell silent again.
With a sigh, Lynn switched on the bedside lamp, shifting to face Juniper, who was turned away from her.
As a result of Lucy's unexplained basement sleeping arrangements, Juniper had intended to take over Lucy's bed, but Lynn was determined to keep her company until they both drifted off to sleep, resulting in their present proximity.
Juniper was more than happy to have Lynn's company, as she wasn't a fan of sleeping alone and had left her trusty stuffed unicorn at home.
Yes, cuddling her stuffed unicorn helps her fall asleep.
"Juniper," Lynn whispered.
"Yeah?" Juniper flipped onto her other side, now facing Lynn. They were mere centimeters apart, close enough for Juniper to feel Lynn's warm breath on her skin.
Juniper's face flushed at the sudden proximity, but Lynn appeared completely at ease, as if their closeness was a familiar and comfortable norm.
