shawn

April 15th, 2019

last i saw evangeline was saturday. i wanted to see her yesterday, but she told me how she was going to be at dance for a majority of her day for her performance wednesday, and then offered to hang out afterwards
i told her not to worry, and that i'd see her wednesday. i told her she needs some down time for herself, which she disagreed with, and said she liked spending time with me, and as much as i reciprocate, she really does need to relax after a whole day of dance

evangeline
just got out of practice! call me while i take off my pointe shoes?

i smile at her text, not even bothering to respond as i hit her contact and call her
she picks up within two rings

" hi honey " i say
" hey, i'm sorry if it's loud there's about one hundred other girls here " she says and i laugh
" as long as i can hear you, darling " i say
" so, how was your day? " i ask her
" pretty good, actually. practice went well even though pointe makes me want to k- OH MY FUCKING GOD " i wince at how much louder she got
next thing i hear is a thump, which i'm imagining is her phone dropping

" fuck, i'm sorry about that. fuck! " she exclaims, picking her phone back up and talking again
" it's okay, sweetheart " i say and she huffs
" forget what i said about a good day. my pointe shoes fucking ripped " she says and i furrow my eyebrows
" ripped? " i ask
" i'll send you a picture, give me a second " she tells me and i stay silent

i wince at the picture for her, only imagining how furious she must be

" i'm so sorry, babe " i tell her and she sighs
" it's obviously not your fault, shawn. i'm sorry for raising my voice before i'm just
aggravated "
" i understand, evangeline. i would be just as mad as you are. how about i drive up and we get ice cream together? " i suggest
" but shawn, it's so late you would never get back in time " she reasons
" i don't have class tomorrow. i can leave whenever it doesn't matter " i tell her and i hear her sigh; a sign she's giving in
" okay. i'll practice for a bit longer, pick me up on your way? " she asks
" of course. i'll see you soon, darling " i tell her, and end the call

now i have more business to take care of
