just a psa I cast grant gustin as robby bc im total trash for him and i highkey could see him being the dorkier hemmings twin ok im gonna go dig my grave bc this.


Chessie had been laying with her body across the foot of her white blanketed bed with her head hanging off the edge as she scrolled through the winterwitch tag on tumblr when it happened. she had just gotten off of a four hour FaceTime call with Robby and she thought that was the most excitement she'd get of the night. at first, she was so deep into hashtag that she didn't even realize she had gotten the notification. but when she clicked the notification bar and read just a few letters, she shot up like she was half asleep and forgot to finish something for school the next day.


"he did it!" she told her best friend with wide eyes and a tone of shock.



Indie was quietly curled atop her best friend's pillow against the headboard when she was notified. she sat up so quick she probably gave herself whiplash and almost fell off the bed. "WHATDIDHESAY?!" she yelled the question out in a quick blurt so deep that it sounded like the spirit of the lord took her.


unknown: hi Chessie it's Luke and I heard you were looking for a fun time


"my god," Chessie exclaimed after she read the text aloud, "he already sounds like a fuckboy. what do I do, what do I say?" her heart was already beating out of her chest and if she was a few shades lighter, she'd be as read as the sky while sun set behind them.


"ooh I got this," Indie replied quickly before she took the iPhone 6s from Chessie's harsh and anxious grip. she started typing away at the screen and didn't let her best friend see until she hit the send button.



chessie cake: um no lol. whoever gave you this number must've been playing you bc I don't talk to boys from Maudit high


"really? you couldn't have just said I have a boyfriend?"


Indie shrugged and had the expression that she couldn't be bothered to care. "you're not trying to make him jealous just yet. hell, you're not even putting in any effort yet."


"so," Chessie inquired hesitantly, "that means I don't have to wait seven years to respond, right?"


"you don't want to look desperate though," Chessie was reminded.


"how am I the one who looks desperate by responding a minute later when he's the one putting the moves on me? moves that I'm shooting right down, for the record."


Indigo thought over the claim, then agreed and hollered that it was yet another double standard while the phone in Chessie's hand swooshed with a notification. she didn't respond right away, mostly because she was decorating  his contact.


luke meat: why lol. you're just jealous that we're littier than yours.



"did he really just use the word lit?" Indie asked dumbfounded then paused. "and did he add an -ier to it?"


Chessie was too busy searching that word then sending him the results. she also responded to his other question by saying that their hockey team sucks, in addition to all the drug use and partying going on in the school. then she turned back to her friend  and said quickly for effect, "hashtag stop white boys 2k16."


chessie cake: well for starters your hockey team sucks like cmon i could do better than that and i don't even know how to skate


luke meat: you realize that I'm the captain of the hockey team right??
