Adam Harris

A smile appeared on her lips when Adam took her face in his hands. Poppy softly placed her own hands on top of his. “Fine, I’ll be adorable only for you.” She removed his hands from her face and moved over to her bed. She sat down on it and she pulled up her legs. She wrapped her arms around her legs. “I’m happy to be here with you instead alone.” It always calmed her down more during the thunder than alone.

Adam nodded, “I can live with that. Especially when you make that adorable pouty face when you don’t get your way.” He teased. He knew she was struggling with taking over his sisters position but she deserved it. He just wished she could believe it. Adam made his way over to the bed and sat down next to her. “There’s no place I’d rather be.”

Poppy pouted for a moment when he called her adorable again. “But I’m never adorable. I can’t be adorable if I want to rule this school.”

Adam took her face in his hands and looked her in the eyes. “Hey, you do not have to worry about your status with me. Right here it’s just you and me. At school people know you’re the Queen. I’ll make sure they know.”

poppy-myers:

“This is definitely not adorable. I am not adorable. The only reason why I can think you like it that I’m scared, is because I cuddle up to you even more at night.”

Adam smirked at her and shrugged. “I mean I’m not going to complain about that. But you’re always adorable.”

emmamontgomery:

“Yeah, exactly. Obviously I like the sun and thunderstorms every day aren’t exactly great but once in a while they’re nice.” 

“Every once in awhile it’s nice when the weather reflects your mood.”

poppy-myers:

“Yes, I hate thunder and lightning. Yes, I might even be scared of it. What’s wrong with that, one is scared of spiders, I hate this.”

“I didn’t say there was anything wrong with it. I think it’s kind of adorable.”

“I am definitely a little high, and you can have some of my delicious brownies… unless you’re gonna call the cops then I am a really innocent person who doesn’t do bad stuff, and it offends me greatly that you would say otherwise.”

Adam laughed, “I’m not going to rat you out but I don’t really want any, thanks. I’m in enough trouble.”

emmamontgomery:

“Cheer was cancelled because of the thunderstorm, but I don’t know it’s kind of nice - the storm I mean.” 

“I’ve always kind of liked them. They feel like a fresh start. Sort of cleaning the slate.”

Adam’s room is fairly simple. It’s clean colors, black and white and usually kept neat and orderly. Though lately he’s been a bit less concerned with the state of his room. It’s filled with musical equipment and football memorabilia. He has pictures of him with his friends and his sister scattered around the room but not many. His room can feel a bit impersonal but that’s how Adam likes it. His walk in closet on the other hand is another story. It is neatly organized and well maintained. If there’s anything  Adam cares about in his world it’s his personal appearance.

poppy-myers:

Even though it was nice to hear that Adam understood, Poppy still opened her mouth. No words left her mouth the first time but the she finally found some words that described how she felt. “I know you didn’t pressure me. But I need you to know that… you know… that I… God, why are words so damn hard,” she mumbled softly. She squeezed his hand softly for a moment, not able to finish it. She then leaned forward and softly pressed a kiss to his lips. “Actions speak louder than words?” She said softly, although the question was clearly hearable.

Adam smirked at her struggle. Not because she was struggling but because she was so cute doing it. She was trying so hard to say it but he knew she couldn’t. The fact that she was trying was important though. It meant that she felt it even if she couldn’t say it and that made all the difference. He kissed her back and nodded. “Yeah. Actions speak louder than words.”

Nancy nodded. Problem solving was a skill she prided herself on, but this was the kind of situation where she had no idea how she could help. “I can’t say I know how you feel, but I’m sure if anyone else was in your shoes they would have lost it a long time ago. I know you want to stay strong, but I don’t think anyone would judge you if you weren’t.” 

Adam laughed sarcastically, “I’m sorry are you new here? Do you not know how this works? If I show just the slightest bit of weakness everything is over for me. This is my senior year and I am not about to lose everything I’ve worked for now.”

tyler-arden:

Tyler’s lips finally tugged upwards into a smile as he grabbed his backpack into his locker. “Let’s go then.” He tapped his friend’s shoulder lightly, then made his way towards the car park. He was aware that the last thing he should be doing right now was to run away, but he also know Adam needed it as much as him. Plus, getting in trouble was one of Tyler’s talent anyway, and he knew his father could get them both out of it.

Adam lifted his bag on his shoulder and followed Tyler out of the school. He trusted Tyler to be able to get them out of any trouble they caused. Besides they both needed this. They were both suffering and every bit of news just made it worse not better for them Not knowing was the hardest thing. “Do we have a destination in mind or are we aimlessly running away?”

tyler-arden:

Tyler sighed, and looked away. He remained silent for a moment before looking at his friend again. “How about, we run away for one day? I could drive us away from this town, and from all of these craps. Would you follow me?”

Adam was taken aback by Tyler’s offer. Logically he knew that he had things here to take care of. That leaving town now might just make him look more guilty to the cops but fuck it. “Yeah. Yeah I would. Running away for a day sounds kind of great.”

nancyfulton:

“Um, hey.” Nancy stood awkwardly, not sure where to look. “I came to double check if you were still still up for our study session later? I heard what happened with, you know, the purse stuff… so if you needed some space, I’d get it.” 

Adam turned around to find Nancy there and he was a bit surprised. He pulled his shirt back on and ran a hand threw his hair and sighed. “It’s fine. I just it’s like it gets worse everyday and it’s my sister and I feel like I’m losing it.”

jessegarcia1:

“I just wanted to come see how you were doing, man.” Jesse said before slumping down on the bleachers. “You know, after Poppy and that police report and stuff.”

Adam sat down next to Jesse and sighed. “The Poppy stuff I knew was coming eventually but the  stuff about my sister it’s..it just keeps coming and I guess I’m not handling it as well as I should but I’ll be fine.”

tyler-arden:

“You don’t have to but, thanks anyway.” Tyler smiled slightly, and shoved his hands into his pockets. “You okay?”

Adam shrugged and looked at his friend. “Not really but what can you do?”

[carlton-adamharris]

emmamontgomery:

“Well i’m tired of having to defend myself, why can’t people just mind their own business.” 

“That’s why I don’t comment. If you just ignore it you don’t have to defend yourself.”

poppy-myers:

“Then we are going to do that,” Poppy said to Adam. She looked at her hand in his and she smiled, before looking up at him. She had promised him that she would. They would have to work harder for their relationship this time than they ever had before. And she was willing to do that. “Listen… About this weekend as well and what you’ve told me…” She said softly. He had told her that he loved her and all she had done was just kiss him and she had never said it back. “I’m… I’m not good with words, Adam.”

Adam shook his head and looked up from their joined hands. “Hey, it’s okay. You don’t have to..I know.” Him and Poppy would never be a conventional couple and he was okay with that. He also knew she struggle with things and saying I love you had always been one of them. He never thought he would be able to say it either but the booze had helped him a little that night. “You don’t have to say it back. I didn’t say it to pressure you. I was drunk and we were being honest and it just happened.”
