@benedictcumberass: not that this should be shocking to anyone, but parents are assholes. All of them.

“Yeah, that does not sound like fun,” Tallulah said. “I’m glad I moved back after the divide happened, at least in that respect.”

“Yeah, it’s...something, alright. I just need to adjust. “

Davie listened intently, picking at her bottom lip as she kept her gaze on the arm of the couch. However, when Arlo stopped speaking, she looked up, lifting her brows. “You haven’t been together that long, Arlo.”

“I know. You’re right. I just...can’t help but feel like she’s the one. If I can get sober for her, I can marry her. I have to wait, I know. Because she’s still so young. “

“Isn’t every day a long day?”

“Technically, every day is twenty four hours, but I’m convinced they’re actually longer. “

“Do you do that at home in bed? Because if you do, I would be the rest of my flat ass that Crosby smacks you for it.”

“As a matter of fact, I have. And you and your flat ass are correct, she did smack me. “

“Unfortunately for you, I pick up on everything. Especially if it’s comin’ out of your mouth.”

“I’m kind of a poet! Like a...amateur poet. I write things. “

“You’re not the first person I’ve heard that from, y’know? There are a few teachers around that have expressed their dislike for the “punk” school.”

“It’s just not fair to those kids to treat them that way. They’re stuck there with an administration that thinks they’re all worthless criminals. That isn’t how to fix the problem. Plus they monitor our curriculum so closely I can hardly teach how I want to. It’s just...bullshit. “

Copeland smiled, leaning across the counter as she admired Arlo. “That right there tells me that you won’t be difficult to get clean. You’ve found yourself a true keeper.”

“I just...I want to be a good man for her, y’know? I want to be able to give her whatever she wants. “

“Why the long face, Carter?”

“Adult shit, Smalls. You’ll learn soon enough. “

“I think that’s where people get confused with my name sometimes. I wasn’t named after a Shakespeare character. I was actually named after my grandfather.”

“Oliver isn’t that obscure of a name. I just can’t help quoting Shakespeare whenever given an opportunity. “

“Giving me attitude won’t get you anywhere, so I suggest you start fucking talking.”

“Don’t laugh, but..I think I want to marry Crosby. I don’t know when. But I think I want to marry her. And y’know, have kids. And do the whole....thing. “

“Did you just call yourself a poet?” she giggled

“I was hoping you would ignore that little detail.”

“I know– and it’s not like I don’t know I’m not. I didn’t take school seriously at all until my last year. I fucked it all up and that’s on my end. But I’m still going to college and I intend to be better.”

“You learned to take school seriously sooner than most. Don’t get down on yourself for that. Just...keep doing what you’re doing. Without alcohol.”

“What makes you say that?” Tallulah wondered.

“Just transitioning to teaching at the new school is all. “

Freya paused, observing Arlo’s face for a long moment. “What happened?”

“Nothing, really. Just new school stuff and first day stuff and...I’m just not sure if I like the new school yet.”

“I can confirm that it definitely does. Josh taught me how to love myself again, and that’s the best feeling in the world.”

“I have faith that Crosby can teach me to love myself. If I can love myself half as much as I love her, I should be okay.”
