there&#x27;s nothing more that i could ever ask for...

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

irismariacruz:

I still have the one you made me.

Example A of why you should be happy to be kissing me.

You do? I mean, I knew that. I pay attention, duh.

So that I can distract you long enough to steal the rope braid off your wrist? I better hope I’m a good kisser, then!

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

irismariacruz:

The luckiest.

I guess. If you miss those jelly bracelets everyone thought were so cool but were actually really lame.

Ew, no thanks. I always preferred the rope braid ones; I would still have one of those if it hadn’t fallen off when I was surfing, honestly.

irismariacruz:

And best friend privileges, so you’re the luckiest.

That’s so sixth grade, Mack!

I could say the same for you, you know. We’re at least equally lucky.

Sixth grade, those were good times, weren’t they? So simple. So pure.

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

Exactly. And I’m obviously not to be ridiculed.

Once? Come one! It has to be at least five times. Even then we’d still be awkward baby lesbians.

Except by me. I get special girlfriend privileges, don’t I?

Five times?! Can’t you just practice on your pillow instead?

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

Fine! But only because what kind of girlfriend would I be if I didn’t go to my girlfriend’s competition.

Then people will just think I’m a desperate lesbian and that you don’t love me enough! Do you want that Kenzie?

One that would probably be ridiculed by her new and naive adoring public.

Ugh, you make this so hard. Fine, but we’re only practicing once. We can be awkward baby lesbians who haven’t quite mastered everything yet, not pro-makeout lesbians.

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

I love you forever and ever?

Shy? SHY? Being known as the shy girl is worst than not being known at all! If I wanted to be known as the shy girl I wouldn’t have told everyone you were my girlfriend. I can’t do shy, Mack!

And always. That’s acceptable. For now. But be prepared for me to change my mind at any moment and demand more love and affection. Possibly in the form of you coming to my next surfing competition without needing an entourage of cute boys or someone to carry a beach chair out for you to sit in.

You can blame the shyness on me then! Run up to me and kiss my cheek and I’ll be like ‘baby, not in front of everyone!’ Then you can seal your spot as the ‘cool lesbian’ out of the two of us.

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU. Whatever, I’m still going to be your best ever.

We’re not five year olds, Mack! We can’t just hold hands and hope that convinces people of our lesbianism. We have to kiss realistically and thus we have to practice. We can’t look like it’s the first time we’ve kissed. I mean, look at me! My girlfriend would have kissed me by now.

That’s progress, but don’t stop now.

Did someone hit you in the head? Have you lost your mind? I know we joked about practicing on each other when we were like thirteen and going to our first make out party, but I never thought you were serious. Why can’t we just pretend we’re shy about PDA and cuddling’s all we get to in front of people?

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

irismariacruz:

Have I told you lately that you’re my absolute favorite ever? Because you are! And you’re never going to want to dump me because I’m going to be the best girlfriend you’ve ever had. Or will have.

I was thinking we should practice kissing.

You haven’t, and you better make a habit of mentioning it a lot more often since I’m stuck going along with your INSANE plan. You’re the only girlfriend I’m ever going to have. I don’t like girls! I don’t even like people.

And why would you want to do that?

Private → ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

irismariacruz:

Yeah, as the surfing girl, not as Mackenzie Martin as you should be known as. Does that mean you’re in? I promise to be the best girlfriend in the whole wide world.

Ugh, again, do I have a choice? If you’re telling people we’re girlfriends and I’m saying no we’re not, they’re just going to assume I’m shy about coming out of the closet. Or maybe embarrassed to be dating you. But I reserve the right to dump you at any time, FAKE girlfriend.
