THE SUGGESTION

okay so hear me out

i am listening

wow you got here fast

anyway

i don't know if it's something you're comfortable with so feel free to say no of course, but i was wondering if you wanted to facetime soon

like it doesn't have to be right now at all, just in the near future or something

it's a stupid idea i know i'm sorry

i regret sending that now

wait no let me just read it properly stop typing

yes i would like to facetime soon, simon

stop overthinking it

we both show our face to thousands of people everyday, it'll be just like streaming

just more private 

that's true...

whenever you want to do it, i will make some free time

like any time???

of course

are you free today??

oh i didn't think you were gonna say so soon

fuck i'm sorry you're right that's way too soon

the weekend?

no simon!! today is fine it was just unexpected

i'll call you when i'm ready?

i'll be waiting :)


"angele!! my room!" i yell, my phone now chucked on the bed behind me. she rushes through the door, looking around worriedly. 

"what? are you okay? what's wrong?"

"i'm facetiming him tonight," i tell her, and she squeals out of excitement, plopping down onto the bed besides me. 

"talia! that's so exciting! what are you gonna wear? are you doing your makeup?"

"well i was planning on wearing the orange top anyway...i'll just tie my hair up and do some casual makeup...nothing over the top, or anything."

"he has seen your face already...right?"

"yes!" i snapped back defensively. "we've been talking since august...it's been ages, i think it's about time we facetimed."

"you've been talking since august? holy crap, i thought it was only since october...you like him, then?"

"i like him," i said casually. 

"no, i mean, you like, like him?"

"oh! uh, i don't know," i lie. i definitely do like him. 

"how can you not know? is he cute in real life? i watched some of his videos and he seems cute...more of a lad though," she chips in. 

i have to stop myself from laughing out loud. he's not like he is on camera in real person at all...he's the opposite of a lad, he's kind, compassionate, caring...most of all, he's soft. like, so soft. 

"yeah, he's cute," i say vaguely, itching the back of my head. "and no, that is not me confessing my undying love for him. i'm gonna get changed now," i continued, it acting as a hint for her to leave, which thankfully she got straight away. 

my makeup didn't take long. i wanted it to be done quickly so i'd be ready quicker, and then we could facetime. 

i hadn't been this excited towards something happening in a long time. it felt so right, and it was definitely the next step towards whatever...we were, and what we could potentially become. 


i'm all ready!! are you?

waiting on the call :)
