Dolan Twin Imagines

For Karla | Ethan

This one is for you graybaeandeth I'm sorry it took me so long to get around to this.

Tomorrow you would expect wake up to the morning band of birds, singing outside your window as the sun rises, it's rays of morning delight peek through the middle of your white curtains, effortlessly flowing down and around your glass window. Arising to the typical new girl new school feelings, excitement and nervousness. Except at the rate your day was going today you are definitely not feeling any of those typical feelings. All you could think about was how your now EX-boyfriend had been cheating on you with your best friend. Oh how this stupid teenage cliche kills you from the inside. You found out only hours ago over the phone from your coward excuse of a boyfriend, or more correctly your EX-boyfriend. Neither him or your best friend could muster up enough courage to face you before you left. Now you are sitting in the back seat of the big black family sized car with your mum, dad, older brother and younger sister. Listening to the 1975 on your iphone while your older brother picks on your younger sister next to you. You watch the outside world though your tinted car windows, observing people as you pass them, contemplating about moments in your life as well as relive events in your head, also thinking of random great comebacks for arguments that happened years ago. Heading for your new house to unpack and soon after prepare for your new school.
It wasn't that long of a drive to your final destination.  You all helped unpack the car so nothing took that long, you know what they say the more hands the lighter the work. It was 6:15pm and you felt like setting off on an adventure to explore this new environment. Walking past strangers and their loved ones, trying to keep your mind off Bradley (your ex) you find yourself sitting along the edges of a small public water fountain staring off into the distance. "Wow what a beautiful little fountain" you say to yourself admiring its beauty in the coloured light of the sunset. Walking slowly around this water fountain dragging your right hand along the edges, feeling ever finer detail of the designed fountain. "A lucky wishing fountain" you read the brass labelling out loud. You reach your hand into your pockets, searching for any forgotten coins so that you may make a wish. VICTORY! You find a dollar coin from your left pocket. Closing your green eyes tight, the light breeze hitting every feature of your face, blowing your long blond hair majestically. Keeping the coin close to your heart, buried within your fingers. You wish, "please, please pleease let me find the one, let me find someone that will treat me right this time" you fling your coin into the leafy, tinged green water, sending your wish down to the bottom of the fountain with your coin. Slowly you open your eyes to silence and a nearly complete sun set, standing here for just a few more moments soaking up the beauty of this unknown and new place, observing the many immaculate shades of the sunset.
"BEEP BEEP MOVE OVER LADY" you hear this high pitched loud voice coming from a small child that most likely hasn't hit puberty yet. The small child on his skate board moving very fast and straight towards you. "Ahhh!" You squeal as this evil devil child has just pushed you backwards into the fountain. You feel the cool water cascade around your body. You can feel the water slowly absorb into your clothes completely. Feeling like you had been under for ages,
two strong large hands help you out of the fountain. From being surrounded in water and wishes to being in the arms of a handsome stranger. His white tank top now soaked too, absorbing water off of your wet clothes. You can see every detail through his shirt, 'are they abs?' You think to yourself. Looking up into your, in a way, saviours big brown enchanting eyes. Through the left over water that still lingered in your ears you heard the boy say "I am so sorry, that was jimmy I am babysitting him, as well as teaching him how to NOT  push beautiful women like yourself into fountains" from having your heart ace and broken to being in the presence of a strong Greek god. Who even was Bradley, Bradley who? You were so mesmerised by this strangers captivating features you totally zoning out! only once, or twice. Zoning back in after probably the third time of him asking if you were okay, whoops. " oh um yes I am fine. I think I grazed my elbow but apart from that I am fine" you reply staring into his strong brown eyes. "Okay that's good. Is there some way I can make this up to you I mean you look new around here. Maybe I could take you out sometime? Show you around? " he asks, his dark curls blowing in the breeze. "Maybe" you say with sudden confidence. Deep down you reallllllly wanted to say yes, but after the wish you made in that fountain. If this was meant to be, then you know you will see him again. "Maybe! What do you mean?" He asks flabbergasted. 'I don't think he has ever been rejected' you think to yourself. "It means if we meet again, then yes you can show me around" you reply with a wide toothy smile, slowly walking backwards as you leave him stunned at the fountain. "Well how am I supposed to see you again!!??" He shouts back. "I'll be around" you say one last time feeling profoundly confident in yourself, turning around to walk off, strutting your stuff just in case he is still looking.
