I shifted in my chair, not able to stay still as boredom consumed me. After the barbecue backyard party at Bailey's two days ago, I told myself that by the end of the week I would get something done. So here I am now as I stare at my laptop, reading over the same two words that I had written days ago. Story Ideas. I went back with Gram, for two reasons: To spend more time with her and to hopefully be able to focus on my work. Actually no, correction, three reasons. Add her delicious hot chocolate to the list. The main reason, that I had been having trouble coming up with a new idea for my novel and I wanted new scenery and somewhere where I could think properly.
And well, here we are. It didn't work that well. I've been sitting in this chair for at least an hour trying to write at least one sentence. But instead, I find myself literally doing anything else. Playing drums against the desk with my hands. Putting music on my laptop and headbanging aggressively to Back Street Boys, and well, NSYNC. (If you don't know who they are, I would not suggest looking them up. Bad life decisions, trust me.) Playing rock paper scissors with myself. And finally, watching vine compilations. (R.I.P. Vine.) Which was what I was doing currently.
I laughed to myself, snorting as I watched the same vines I had seen over a hundred times. A notification popped up for Instagram and I clicked it eagerly, really just avoiding anything to do with my novel in any sense at all.
My phone screen brought me to the private messages of my Instagram as it loaded messages from, Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug.
Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug: Hey darling <3, how's Rhode Island been??
I typed back quickly, bored with honestly everything else. Plus, I haven't really talked to Tori in a while.
Simon_the_bisexual_unicorn: Not bad. I actually made a few friends
Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug: What?! Simon knows how to make friends?!? *Gasp!* I am shocked!
Simon_the_bisexual_unicorn: Oh shut up. I'm a socially awkward loser, But I'm not that much of a loser.
Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug: Yeah Yeah. Soooo, have you found...the one... yet?
Simon_the_bisexual_unicorn: No. Seriously Tori, calm down. I'll find them when fate allows.
Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug: Are you serious about all this fate bull shit? Coooome oooon Simon... Don't wait for Fate to decide that you're 'ready.' Just go out there and find him!
Simon_the_bisexual_unicorn: Sigh. Tori what would I do without your constant pestering?
Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug: Probably die.
Simon_the_bisexual_unicorn: Well, jeez. Um. Sure. If that's what you wanna go with. Why not?
Victoria_the_cutest_ladybug: Why of course. :) Now, I'm sorry, But I must bid you a due. Date night with Michael. See ya later sweetheart <3
Simon_the_bisexual_unicorn: See ya later Tori.
I sigh as I place my phone down onto the table and look back towards my laptop. "You can do this Simon. It's just a couple Ideas." I say aloud, trying to encourage myself to write something, anything. As I stare in discontent at my laptop, my eyes dart to my phone as the screen lights up and it vibrates against the wooden surface of my desk, I quickly pick it up to see a notification from Kik. "A few more moments of not working isn't going to hurt much.." I mumble as I open my phone checking Kik.
Auburnthefirewitch added The-Devil-In-Her-Cutest-Form
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: Oh Great. Satan has arrived. Aubrie. Why?
Auburnthefirewitch: We needed more girl representation!! Since you added Simon, we're down a woman!!
RulerOfPlanetEarth: May I ask who this supposed Satan is?
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: Only the most evilest and scary monster to ever exist in this whole friggin universe.
The-Devil-In-Her-Cutest-Form: It's Kennedy ^-^
RulerOfPlanetEarth: Oh, cool
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: No. Not cool. You do realize what this means right?! I'll never be able to fricken cuss in this fudging chat. Ever. Again...
Justasmolbirdfren: oh poor pitiful bailey
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: -.-
I laughed quietly as it appeared the two twins seemed to argue amongst themselves and their friends, I was about to join the conversation when I got another notification for another group
Weirdestweirdoofthemall added RulerOfPlanetEarth
Weirdestweirdoofthemall added Lucas A.K.A. Batman
Weirdestweirdoofthemall named the group, Just guys being dudes
RulerOfPlanetEarth: Why did you do this? What is the purpose.
RulerOfPlanetEarth: Also, I really appreciate that group name. I really appreciate a person who knows his vines.
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: I'm getting to that Simon, if you would let me explain. And thank. I know. I'm brilliant.
Lucas A. K. A. Batman: What is this chat for? Why did you add us?
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: I was trying to explain that. God, neither of you have any fuckin patience.
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: But anyways. The girls are taking over the chat. And we need to stop them. Or else we'll never be able to do anything anymore
RulerOfPlanetEarth: Correct me if I'm wrong, but cant we not just, I don't know, co-exist?"
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: No. We can't Simon. It's either us or them. You don't understand. They've tried to do this before. Last time they added Kennedy, I almost died. We had a truce.. but they broke it...
RulerOfPlanetEarth: Aren't you exaggerating just a little?
Lucas A.K.A Batman: He's actually not exaggerating. He's right. Well, yeah he's being a little dramatic, but he's right, having Kennedy in that chat is not a good idea.
Lucas A.K.A Batman: You'll come to regret it. Just like we did.
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: Trust us.
Lucas A.K.A Batman: You know how they say there's always an evil twin. Its true. She's the evil one.
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: She is the actual devil. Like her middle name is actually Lucy. No joke. You know what Luci can also be short for?? Lucifer.
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: But don't tell her I told you her middle name. She'll actually kill me this time.
RulerOfPlanetEarth: Don't you guys think you're being just a little rude?
Lucas A.K.A Batman: Nope.
Weirdestweirdoofthemall: not at all
I stared down at my phone looking over the messages skeptically as I read over them one more time. I didn't see what could be so wrong with Kennedy, she's such a sweetheart. Like sincerely. I decided I wanted to find out for myself and created a new group chat between the girls and me.
