((a weird idea i had of telling a story solely through short pieces of dialogue. ethan is in italics, you're normal))

~

"Hi, I'm Ethan. My dad says I should go make friends."

"My mommy says the same thing."

"So, what's your name?"

"Y/N."

"Want to make a mud pie shop?"

"Sure."

"So what grade are you in?"

"Kindergarten. What grade are you in?"

"First grade."

~

"Wanna be my partner for the science fair?"

"Yeah! What kind of project should we do?"

"What kind of fertilizer grows plants the best?"

"Sounds fun! My house after school for planning?"

"I'll ask my mom when she picks me up."

~

"I'm sad."

"Why?"

"You're going to middle school next year and I'm gonna be stuck in fifth grade still."

"Middle school sucks, I've gotta get up an hour before you do."

"Ha!"

"We can still hang out after school, though."

~

"Do you wanna watch Star Trek tonight?"

"I can't, I'm going to Mark's house."

"But we always have movie marathons on Fridays."

"Have a sleepover with Amy or Kathryn."

"I wanna have a sleepover with you, Ethan!"

"Stop whining like a little baby and go play with some girls for a change! God, you're so annoying, Y/N!"

"Fine, I never wanna watch another movie with you again!"

~

"Hey."

"Hey."

"I'm sorry, about calling you a baby."

"That was almost a year ago."

"And yet you still haven't talked to me since then."

"Fair enough. I forgive you."

"So, Star Trek marathon at my house tonight?"

"Can't, I've got a sleepover with Amy and Kathryn. Next Friday?"

"Definitely."

~

"She's not my girlfriend!"

"Ethan, just ignore them, they're not worth your time."

"Let go of me Y/N! Just leave me alone for one fucking second!"

"Sorry for trying be a good friend!"

"Y/N, wait, I'm s-"

"Don't even try. I'll see you Saturday."

"Saturday?"

"We are still in the same homecoming group, knucklehead."

~

"I heard Tyler asked you to prom?"

"Yeah. I mean, it's his senior year, he's going to college. Might as well have a fun night with one of my friends."

"So you're going to say yes?"

"Are you going to stop me if I do?"

"No."

~

"Congratulations!"

"Thanks, Y/N. I didn't think you'd show up to the party."

"How could I not go to my best friend's graduation party?"

"So, we are friends again?"

"Only if you take me to the beach before you ship yourself off to some big fancy state college."

"Actually, I'm thinking of staying local.  You know, community college. Spend time fleshing out my YouTube channel."

"Yeah, I heard you hit 5,000 a little while ago, that's exciting!"

"Thanks, Y/N. Are you excited for your senior year?"

"No, all my friends are going to college without me."

"Aw, I forget how young you are, you're such a baby!"

"You look like you're twelve, Ethan, so shut up."

"Yeah, yeah."

~

"I want you to move to LA with me, Y/N."

"Okay."

~

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"How long?"

"Since you first asked me to make mud pies."

~

"I do."

"I do."
