forty six: real life

"can you get up off of the ground before we're late?" diego shouted at rose and thomas, who were sitting in the middle of the street waiting for me to take a photo of them.

"it's called a photo shoot," thomas rolled his eyes. he laughed at himself and rose winced.

i snapped a photo before saying, "let's get this show off the road."

rose and thomas stood up, dusting off the dirt from the road. we got into diego's car, his mom was waiting inside.

"can i drive please?" diego asked as we all got into the back.

"should i get my helmet orrr," i started. his mom laughed.

"i don't think so," she said.

"please?"

"let him do it! we'll all die one way or another!" thomas smiled at her through the mirror.

"i guess," she sighed. diego skipped over to the drivers side.

"let's rock n roll!"

•••

"and we're here!" diego said, pulling in very sloppily.

"oh thank god!" thomas mumbled, jumping out and kissing the ground.

"i'm going to pretend that wasn't an insult," diego rolled his eyes. the three of us hopped out, but of course diego had to kiss his mom's cheek before leaving.

"awe so sweet," rose giggled.

"okay, asshole," diego murmered.

"and you kiss your mother with that mouth?" a voice said from behind me.

"it's that yellow tumblr girl," another voice spoke. we all turned.

"griffin!" thomas shouted, running over to hug a taller boy.

"weston koury?" rose asked.

"the one and only," weston bowed.

"thomas can you get off," the guy, who i assumed was griffin, struggled to say.

weston walked towards thomas, yanking him off of griffin.

"well, i'm griffin gluck," he introduced himself.

a dark haired girl jogged up behind him.

"hey, diego. movie's starting in fifteen!" she smiled. "oh! i'm luna!"

"i'm evelyn miller," i smiled.

"i'm rose," she popped her head out from behind diego.

"i have to go finish setting up! i'll talk to you later!" she patted griffin's back before jogging back, her ponytail swinging from left to right.

"luna blaise?" i raised an eyebrow.

"yeah," thomas stepped next to rose.
