Yes

Dabria's POV

The first thing I did was text him. I know it wasn't like me to make the first move, but I did it anyway.

Hey :)

Quinn was driving us back. I was in the backseat with the suitcases and the front seat had been taken by cupcakes Quinn had bought for Jess.

"So you know Jess and I have been dating for almost a year."

"Yeah?" I said, scrolling up and down on the little "hey.".

"I...I bought something else while we were in LA..."

"You did what? Quinn, you didn't!"

"I did." She smirks and holds up what looks like a rock.

"Let me see!"

I open the rock and inside there is a beautiful geode interior, with a beautiful opal and diamond ring that looks like a full moon.

"Holy shit...how are you going to propose?"

"Our first real date was a picnic in the park under the stars...cheesy, but I'm taking her there and I'm going to sing to her and stuff..."

"How long have you been planning this?"

"About 4 months."

"Why am I so out of touch with you?"

Quinn gets a sad expression.

"I just...the Luther thing was so fresh for the past few months and I just... I don't know. I just felt kinda weird telling you about how well my life is going and I just-"

"I don't give a fuck! You're fucking getting married! What else have you been hiding?"

"Um..."

"Quinn."

"I got a part in a local art film..."

"Seriously? Quinn, you can tell me things. I don't like you hiding things from me for my sake."

"Me neither. I'm sorry." She looks back and her eyes are shiny with tears, like a cartoon character.

I roll my eyes and look back down at my phone. My heart takes a leap of faith when I notice a text message notification.

Hey.

Suddenly, I blurt something out.

"QuinnIneedtotellyousomethingDangavemehisnumberandijusttextedhimandherespondedhelpmeimsorry."

Quinn swerves off the road and pulls over.

"What?"

I hand her my phone and she screams.

"HOLY BARREN VALLEY OF FUCKS."

"What the hell do I say?"

"Be like, "so I noticed you gave me your number, any particular reason?"

"Okay, I guess." I text Quinn's words and then my finger lingers over the send button before a bite the bullet and send it.

"Okay we are almost home, we've got to go now or we're gonna be late because my lovely possible wife is making pancakes for dinner."

We kinda of have an awkward text conversation on the ride home.

I don't really know why I gave you my number honestly 😂 I know it's weird of me but all of my fans are usually twelve year old girls and you just kinda stuck out...I know I sound like such a douche but I honestly can't explain it lol

I feel a rush of giddiness. I type quickly.

Of course. I'm totes cool with it, it's crazy that I met you let alone am currently texting you.

I cringe. Totes? Who the fuck says that? Besides Quinn...I quickly type another message to redeem myself.

So what do you think of my friend Quinn? We do kinda have to thank her for being a little shit and not taking her medication

The bubble with the three dots comes up but then goes away. In digital romance, this is a huge warning sign that you fucked up.

I brush it off and just focus on the now. He likes me. We met in person. He's a nice guy.

My phone vibrates and I internally scream.

She's funny as fuck😂 I love her, Phil says that he thinks that they should be best friends and I'm low key salty

I send back

Haha, she used to have a crush on Phil until she figured out she was gay

"Phone face, look at the world around you! We have arrived at the most beautiful view in California!"

I look around and then I see that she's motioning to Jess standing in the doorway and rolling her eyes.

Quinn runs up to her and wraps her arms around her waist and picks her up. Sometimes I swear that Quinn is a mutant. She never works out and it super tiny but is freakishly strong.

She stands up tall to kiss Jess. It's almost funny because they're polar opposites. Quinn is extremely pale, Jess has beautiful dark skin. Quinn is super short, Jess is super tall.

"Hey, Dabria!" Jess smiles warmly. I feel at home again.

Suddenly, my phone vibrates.

So uh, our flight got delayed. I know this is super weird but we literally have no friends in the area and we've already gone over budget for a hotel. Would it be possible for us to stay with you? I know this is super weird and uncalled for and you have the complete right to decline...
