try not to sing out of key

marline mccarthy, oldest of four. would you believe in love at first sight? yes, i'm certain it happens all the time. what do you see when you turn out the light? i can't tell you, but i know it's mine. My name is Marline McCarthy and honestly I'm just trying to figure everything out again. I go to this Arts School called William McKinley and that's pretty neat. Just know to be a good person and you'll get goodness in return tenfold. ☮ ✌ 💗

Dreams are way too complicated. I think today is a ‘stay at home and comptemplate life’ day.

Private: …oh. Alright, I’m on my way. I know you’re hurting, but this is… it’s what safest. You’re not gonna be alone though. We’re here. We’re all here. 

[comeonmarline]

Private: Whatever you say, Miles. None of you are the love of my life, though.

Just hurry, please.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

Private: Of course. Send me the address and I’ll be there as fast as I can. And you can stay with me as long as you need to. And you can hate me as long as you need to.

[comeonmarline]

Private: I had to hide from the cops, so I’m just now sitting in the lobby of the hotel I’m locked out of. [Address here.] They’re all gonna bail him out.... but I have a feeling I’ll never see him again...

I guess that’s fine for everyone.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

Private: Listen to me. I’m not gonna lie, I could’t be happier that he’s getting the hell out. I find it an asshole move that he didn’t tell you that until after he slept with you, but he’s gone nonetheless. 

What I hate… is that you’re hurting. I hate that any of this had to happen. And I wish I could… go back in time and convince you to stay with me. To just come to summer camp with me. Maybe both our lives would’ve turned out differently. I don’t really know. 

And I’m sorry I freaked out in the open. I… I’m sorry. Just please come and be safe. 

[comeonmarline]

Private: I may... really hate you right now but I can’t stop crying, Miles. Can you just come pick me up? Also, can... I maybe sleep with you tonight? I’m too-- I’m too scared to be by myself.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

PRIVATE: I… I’m sorry. I really am. For that I am sorry. I was angry and I was terrified and I wasn’t thinking. I can’t think anymore at this point. With this… this man and Becca and the baby and I don’t even know where my family is half the time. I’m sorry, Marls.

I do? You’re gonna leave and come home? 

[comeonmarline]

Private: Don’t. Just... Just don’t. You did enough.

Yeah. He doesn’t want to be a father. It’s whatever. I was going to come home tonight anyhow.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

PRIVATE: People aren’t stupid, Marline. And neither am I. I didn’t want this either. All I wanted was my sister back, safe and sound. 

It’ll always matter. Especially until he’s out of your life.

[comeonmarline]

PRIVATE: NO ONE KNEW BUT YOU, MILES. YOU KNEW AND NO ONE ELSE DID AND YOU JUST SAID IT OUT LOUD FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW. DO YOU THINK I’M -- I-- I KNOW IT’S WRONG BUT I-- I JUST-- It’s not really something I wanted you to say publicly.

Well, you have your wish.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

PRIVATE: Talk about what? I wasn’t talking about the baby, Marl. I was talking about you. You’re a child. And if you’re upset about me talking about that, I’ll remind you that you’re the one who posted a photo of yourself PUBLICLY in bed with a hebephile!

[comeonmarline]

PRIVATE: It could have been anyone’s legs, Miles. I-- I just... don’t... I didn’t want... Forget it.

It doesn’t matter anymore.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

I don’t have to know you, Marline. I do, but that’s not what this is about. This isn’t okay to do to anyone. You can’t do this to a child. 

Can’t believe that I love you? Well, then I guess I’ll have to prove it.

[comeonmarline]

I can’t believe you would say something publicly about that. I just got here, I can’t ruin my reputation already. I.. I would never say anything about Becca publicly. But what’s done is done... I have to go. Just leave me alone.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

Really? Some practically 30 year old man convinces a little girl that it’s perfectly natural and that’s love? Tell that to all the other little girls who got away from the people who hurt them. Or the ones who didn’t make it at all. 

Don’t do that. Don’t use our love for you like some kind of weapon by threatening to hurt us again. I’m not playing that game. 

[comeonmarline]

MILES, SHUT UP! You don’t know me. You don’t know anything about me anymore.

I can’t believe you, anymore. I can’t do this.

You’re not safe! This isn’t legal, Marline! How do I get this through your head? 

[comeonmarline]

I don’t understand why you can’t just accept love for what it is. Love is legal no matter what. Stop talking, Miles.

I’ll never come home if you keep talking like that.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

I’d sacrifice both my balls to get you away from him, Marline. 

[comeonmarline]

You’re making this a bigger deal than it is. I’m fine. I’m safe. You need to take a deep breath and count to ten.

Please.

How completely adorable.

Yeah, it’s pretty cute, I guess.

[hashtagmilesm-blog]

No, I do not wanna calm down! I wanna find you and get you somewhere fucking safe. 

[comeonmarline]

Calm down before you pop a freaking testicle, Jesus Christy Miles!

WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?

Out. Wanna calm down?

It’s not that easy to screw up if you can sing or perform some kind of crazy and insane dance act.

[comeonmarline]

I definitely have zero class when it comes to dance.
