          time  is  hard  to  keep  track  of  now,  but  louis  isn’t  blind  to  the  changes  of  both  himself  and  the  friends  around  him.  he’s  started  growing  facial  hair,  started  losing  the  baby  fat  in  his  cheeks—at  least  to  some  degree—and  he’s  got  little  patches  of  hair  in  places  he  hadn’t  remembered  them  being  before.  he’s  just  thankful  to  whichever  of  his  parents’  genes  that  prevented  him  from  having  breakouts.

          and  despite  his  own  body’s  questionable  changes,  he  supposes  it  could  be  worse.  he  thinks  about  willy  and  the  way  the  boy’s  voice  cracks  over  the  tiniest  things  and  the  plethora  of  acne  that  plagues  his  skin.  ah,  the  joys  of  puberty…  still,  louis  has  other  things  on  his  mind  besides  his  friends’  changes.  well…  most  of  them,  anyway…

          his  eyes  flit  over  to  the  girl—or  woman—beside  him,  taking  in  the  slope  of  her  nose  from  her  profile  view  as  they  walk.  clementine.  if  anything,  she’s  aged  the  most  gracefully  out  of  all  of  them.  and  louis  acknowledges  that  he  is  entirely  biased,  but  he  doesn’t  care.  anyone  with  half  a  brain  could  see  the  beauty  clem’s  become—not  that  she  wasn’t  already  beautiful,  but,  in  louis’  opinion,  she’d  only  managed  to  grow  even  more  beautiful  with  time.

          he’s  reminded  of  the  quote  from  mulan  that  had  never  managed  to  leave  his  mind  even  after  all  these  years:  the  flower  that  blooms  in  adversity  is  the  most  rare  and  beautiful  of  all.  and  he’ll  be  damned  if  it  doesn’t  fit  clem  to  a  T.  he  wonders  if  he  should  mention  it  to  her;  wonders  if  it  would  make  her  blush.  it’s  an  entertaining  thought.

          instead,  he  carries  on  about  one  thing  or  another—anything  to  fill  the  silence  between  them—and  he  notices  that  she’s  been  quiet,  which  isn’t  anything  unusual,  but,  knowing  her  as  well  as  he’s  grown  to,  he  can  tell  when  it’s  an  unusual  amount  of  quiet.

          “ penny  for  your  thoughts ? ”  he  asks  after  a  brief  pause,  brow  risen.  he  knows  they  need  to  focus—keep  their  eyes  peeled  for  anything  they  could  bring  back  to  the  school—but  checking  in  with  each  other  while  they  do  it  wouldn’t  hurt  anything.

“Y’know, they teach the birds and the bees about me.”

“I can’t do this—I can’t actually do this, so whatever it is or was, it’s got to stop and it’s got to stop now, do you understand?”

“I just think I’m doing something wrong, is all…”

“I can’t ask [Name] if there’s anything wrong because it’s way too scary…”

“I went crazy for someone and it wasn’t you…”

“I’m staying… I couldn’t—wouldn’t—leave you…”

“You’re my best friend… It was enough before; it’ll be enough again, so…”

“Do penguins have knees?”

“It’s not you leaving that’s going to kill me, it’s you loving someone more…”

“I want you to be happy…”

“More than anything else, I wanted to be the cause of happiness in you…but if I’m not, then…I can’t stand in the way…”

“What you’re feeling now is the unstoppable force which means I’ve got to move…”

“What did [Name] mean when he said you’re in love with someone else…?”

“I’m in love with someone else…”

“It doesn’t matter what you call it, it’s not going to happen…”

“I bought you sweets…”

@lastedpromise asked: 24 [ tara to carys! ]

@lastedpromiseasked: 24 [ Tara To Carys! ]
@lastedpromiseasked: 24 [ Tara To Carys! ]

#𝟐𝟒: "𝑮𝑯𝑶𝑺𝑻𝑺!" - 𝒔𝒐𝒑𝒉𝒊𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒔 / 𝚂𝙿𝙾𝚃𝙸𝙵𝚈 𝚆𝚁𝙰𝙿𝙿𝙴𝙳 !

are you messing with me ? is this some kind of fucked up joke ? 'cause I checked yesterday... and that's not where I left your coat...

          carys  doesn’t  know  tara,  not  really.  and  yet,  the  word  vomit  simply  cannot  cease.  she  doesn’t  really  have  anyone  to  talk  to  aside  from  a  few  people  on  the  internet  that  she  really  doesn’t  know.  tara  just  so  happens  to  be  one  of  the  poor,  unfortunate  souls  that  she  happened  to  stumble  into  in  real  life;  said  soul  who  just  so  happened  to  be  kind  enough  to  initiate  small  talk  with  her.

          carys,  in  her  colorful  striped  sweater  with  a  bow  around  her  ponytail  deceived  many  people  into  thinking  that  she  was,  indeed,  normal—well,  the  folks  who  weren’t  typically  from  around  there,  or  the  ones  who  didn’t  really  know  of  her,  at  least.  she’d  never  seen  tara  before,  but  tara  was  nice—nicer  than  most  of  the  people  carys  engaged  with.  she’d  probably  thought  the  small  talk  would  start  and  end  with  a  good  book  recommendation,  but  it  had  snowballed  into  carys  oversharing  and  telling  tara  all  about  how  at  least  when  she  was  at  work,  she  didn’t  have  her  mother  breathing  down  her  neck—most  times,  anyway.  it  certainly  didn’t  stop  her  mother  from  trying  to  call  or  text  at  times,  much  to  carys’  chagrin  on  the  days  where  she  forgets  to  mute  her  phone.

          “ you  should  feel  my  heartbeat  every  time  i  hear  my  phone, ”  she  explains,  maybe  a  little  too  animatedly,  hand  moving  to  her  chest.  “ i  mean,  i  love  my  mom,  really,  but  she  just—she  can  be  a  bit  much… ”  it  takes  a  few  beats  before  carys  realizes  that  she,  too,  happens  to  be  ‘a  bit  much’;  like  mother,  like  daughter,  she  supposes.

          embarrassment  flutters  across  her  features  before  she’s  giving  tara  a  way  out  of  their,  admittedly,  mostly  one-sided  conversation.

          “ but,  uh—i’m  sorry,  i—i  don’t  mean  to  hold  you  up ! ”

68 [ mitch to louis! ]

68 [ Mitch To Louis! ]
68 [ Mitch To Louis! ]

#𝟔𝟖: "𝑺𝑻𝒀𝑳𝑬" - 𝒕𝒂𝒚𝒍𝒐𝒓 𝒔𝒘𝒊𝒇𝒕 / 𝚂𝙿𝙾𝚃𝙸𝙵𝚈 𝚆𝚁𝙰𝙿𝙿𝙴𝙳 !

          to  say  that  he  and  mitch  have  a  bit  of  a…tumultuous  relationship  is  an  understatement.  they  have  their  ups  and  downs  and  ons  and  offs,  but  somehow  ( probably  from  weakness  on  both  of  their  ends ),  they  always  wind  up  right  back  where  they  left  off.  they  can  never  seem  to  truly  leave  each  other  alone.  louis  would  be  amiss  to  deny  that  he’s  enamored  by  mitch’s  freckles  and  minty  green  eyes—eyes  so  intense  that  they  make  every  hair  on  louis’  body  stand  on  end  when  mitch  gazes  into  his  eyes.  it’s  those  same  intensely  green  eyes  that  make  louis  weak  in  the  knees  and  could  get  him  to  do  just  about  anything.  it’s  a  fault  of  his,  and  he  knows  it,  but  when  put  in  that  situation,  it’s  hard  for  louis  to  deny  mitch  anything.

          so,  when  mitch  comes  crawling  back  after  their  last  big  fight,  louis  tries  to  turn  him  away—he  does  good  at  first,  but  eventually,  mitch  has  him  worn  down,  and  he  caves.  he  can  practically  see  the  eye  rolls  of  their  friends  when  they  find  out  that  they  are,  indeed,  back  together.

          “ i  should  just  tell  you  to  leave, ”  louis  sighs,  hands  gripping  at  mitch’s  broad  shoulders  as  he  gazes  up  at  him.  “ 'cause  i  know  exactly  where  it  leads,  but  i  watch  us  go  'round  and  'round  each  time… ”

          it  truly  is,  entirely,  a  fault  of  louis’  that  he’ll  always  take  mitch  back  and  he  knows  it.
