"Fuck."
Shirina plopped onto her pillow in an existential crisis while her phone blew up with frustrated keysmashing from ThatCrazyShipper69 and the maniacal 'MWAHAHHAHAHA's of DisneyLover306. She picked up her phone and typed the first words that came to mind without the colourful additions.

Shirina dropped her phone onto her nose after typing. "Ah, shit. What have I done to forsaken the gods?" She said to no one monotonously. More notifications sounded, replacing the environment of Guns N' Roses with high-pitch dings. She read the recent messages she had missed and decided that she wasn't gonna cry right now. That was saved for November Rain.

ThatCrazyShipper69: Won't miss ya
'lol, no one would.' Shirina thought.
DisneyLover306: BYE, EXPRESSO

The girl contemplated throwing her phone against the wall in a rage storm of feels.
'Nah.'
Shirina then lazily reached out to a box on her nightstand, opened it, retrieved a Hershey Kiss and threw it in her mouth before it could melt in her hand. She opened her text messages and started texting River.
Now, there's this thing about River. She's sarcastic, nihilistic, sometimes a bit of an asshole but still incredibly nice (on the good days) and artistic. She looked like a Tumblr Girl Asthetic. But acted like a Tumblr Girl; clumsy, awkward, but cool once they've warmed up to you. A warm smile that could easily turn into a sharp look that could cut a bitch faster than Alex Fierro's garrote.
Shirina: Did you get the homework done?
River(dale): Who is this?
Shirina frowned at the reply.
Shirina: Oh c'mon, Riv. This is Shirina Maraday! From school!
River(dale): Oh, you. How did you get my number?
Shirina: Your friend Charlotte.
River(dale): Oh, okay. Yeah, I got it done in class.
How any being could finish finding x and calculate anything quickly enough to finish in the 7 minute span Mrs. Why-The-Hell-Are-You-Torturing-Us gave the class, Shirina could only be baffled at and admire.
Shirina: Cool, did you get the answer key?
By answer key, she meant 'cheat sheet Mel constructed because she was certain that nobody knew what the fuck was going on and decided to point out the patterns and give tips with colourful adjectives everywhere because she's a salty sinnamon roll.'
River(dale): There was an answer key?
Shirina: yeah. I'll send it to you...
River(dale): Okay, thanks
Shirina tapped the Camera Button and looked past multiple screenshots of Viria13 and Burdge's art until she found the 'Answer Key'.
River(dale): I'll check it out after dinner. Thanks again.
Shirina: No problem.
Before Shirina could even put down the phone, her siblings yelled at her from down the stairs.
"SHIRI! GET YO ASS DOWN HERE, ZION AND MOM ARE OUT SO WE'RE HAVING RAMEN NOODLE-" Mitchell, her older brother who she thought was going to another party tonight, screamed from the kitchen.
"THAT'S NOT A REAL DINNER, SHITHEAD!" a feminine voice interrupted. Her sister Vivian, Vivi or Viv for short, started ranting in French. Shirina only understood the "-merde!" part.
"FUCK THE RULES, VIVA LA RESISTANCE, BITCH." Ollie yelled.
"DUDE, YOU DON'T EVEN LIVE HERE!" Ben replied, his voice coming from living room where multiple digital gunshots could be heard. They all knew the difference at this point.
The sound of pots clanging and falling, incoherent screeching and French cursing filled the small house. Shirina would probably have to apologize to the neighbors later. She sighed, and headed downstairs where Sam was shouting in Italian, curtesy of Solangelo fanfics, Ollie trying to set up the table with the help of Ben, and a Vivi vs. Mitchell Tickle Battle, Vivi clearly winning.
"Alright, I'm hungry, where's the foo- IS THAT MY IPAD YOU'RE LOOKING THROUGH?!" Shirina glared daggers, no, battle axes at Sam.
"Oooohhhhh, bitch, ruuunnnnn." Mitchell said once Vivi had granted him mercy.
For only a second, everyone forgot their worries. Except Sam, they had to run and scream for their lives because a bloodthirsty Maraday is something you never want to see.
