Hit Me Up // Jack Avery • Why Dont We

Jack: you never got to tell me what three things you've always wanted to do

Val: oh I was gonna tell you?

Jack: yup

Val: even though you didn't answer properly when I asked??

Jack: yup

Val: I don't think so buddy

Jack: well I've always wanted to get into music but that already happened, I'm living out my dream now

Jack: I wasn't kidding about travelling, which is an activity btw

Jack: I'd want to meet you in person, I've been wanting to even before we started talking

Val: replace the growing taller one

Jack: have Selena Gomez tweet about me

Val: okay my turn

Val: I've always wanted to ride on a helicopter

Val: to see the sun rise over the sea, even though that's pretty cliché

Val: it's actually an interesting story; the beach closest here doesn't allow anyone in after dark despite it being a public beach. The rule was enforced when I was around six or seven years old, after a couple was found dead on the beach, drowned

Val: they were drunk and the cops said they probably swam pretty far and were swallowed by the evening tide

Jack: or they were murdered

Val: my thoughts exactly, but I've been going there since I couldn't walk, just to sit around and touch the sand

Val: I was way too young when the curfew started and even before the curfew, at that age my parents wouldn't be in their right minds to let me stay overnight at a public beach so I've never had a chance to watch the sunrise

Val: I'm pretty obsessed with that beach, like I've been to other beaches, even ones that are better, but I've never wanted to see the sun on any other beach

Val: ya feel?

Val: that was way too deep

Jack: like the sea?

Val: I can't believe you just used a beach pun on me, at this hour

Jack: don't you mean *bitchy pun?

Val: if you were sitting on a chair, I'd push you off it

Val: even if you lived next door

Val: I'd go there and shove you right off of it

Jack: but why do I get the feeling you're laughing?

Val: I'm not

Jack: liar

Val: fine I laughed, but only because you're an idiot

Val: what time is it?

Jack: nearly 5:30 am

Val: it's a little over midnight here, which explains the deep stuff I just spilled

Jack: I like when you tell me stuff like that

Val: of course you do

Jack: do you still go to that beach?

Val: after the incident, not alone

Jack: that's good to know

Val: hey I'd better knock out

Val: and you should too, it's like later than late there

Val: some people wake up at that time and you haven't slept yet

Jack: wait you haven't told me the third thing you've always wanted to do yet

Val: a couple months ago, it was to marry either Shawn Mendes, Daniel Seavey or Tyler Posey

Jack: but now?

Val: goodnight jack

Jack: I feel like I'm on that list now

Val: feel all you want

Val: that sounded wrong

Jack: but am I?

Val: maybe?

Jack: is that a yes?

Val: jack

Val: goodnight

Jack: I won't be able to sleep if you leave me hanging

Val: what if it's a no?

Jack: then I know you're lying

Val: then it's a no
