“dude theres a certain way to do everything when it comes to this shit, it’s insane. i love that this is also just a group effort at this point, it’s pretty hilarious.”

“oh my god i’ve got a lot of catching up to do then. oh of course i’m just gonna become your second set of arms we can ghost this shit.”

“is there any actual logic behind pregnancy breathing? i’m trying to be prepared, you know, but like - it seems like the breathing they tell you to do will only cause more anxiety? why so quick? i don’t understand.”

[maxharp]

“there’s certain ways you should breathe for this? oh shit man i gotta do more research i’m just gonna get us baby books to share at this point.”

“Your girl-uh-friend. Nice save. Which one is she? I have my favorites. right, no coffee, I can do that.”

“she’s a- a friend, just a friend and her name’s penny. target’s always good cause then they can get groceries or fun stuff, there’s some variety there.”

lockwoodbella​:

“I mean, coffee is the greatest gift, but I see the problem. Oh, a gas card never occurred to me, that’s a good one.”

“yeah my girl- my uh my friend works at the lima bean, while she loves coffee for presents anything but coffee is her favorite.”

[lockwoodbella]

“Definitely buying gifts for all the baristas at the Lima Bean. I don’t think I’d survive if not for them… Gift cards to Starbucks probably wouldn’t be the best idea though, huh?”

[maxharp]

“yeah no they’ll definitely appreciate it but i would highly recommend something other than a coffee place, even like a target or gas gift card would be awesome for them.”

[madivans]

“Just because it’s about to be winter and it’s currently forty degrees outside, doesn’t mean I can’t drink iced coffee. Whoever tells you otherwise, is completely wrong and never had to sit through Mr. Wilsons droning on about pi. And not the good kind of pi.”

[maxharp]

“you know i’m not disagreeing i’m just saying, there are probably hundreds of other coffee options, and lots of them come hot so you can actually get some warmth.”

penelope had been avoiding looking up at whoever she very nearly threw her phone at, but as soon as she heard the voice, she let out a sigh, knowing exactly who it was. she stuffed her phone into her back pocket, still avoiding his glance, “how’s - uh -” she tried, stumbling over her words, “i - should go. sorry for making you stop.” penny then took a step around him, running one of her hands over her face.

max fought to keep his gaze off of her, his hands shoving into his front pockets as he stood there, his heart feeling like it was on the floor. he took a shaky breath as they stood there, his brain moving to fast for his mouth to try to keep up to get any words out. when he heard her words his hand moved to grab her arm before he could even think, pulling her body back to stand in front of his. “no - please penny, just stay for a minute? you don’t have to talk just, listen?”

penelope finally had an off day from the coffee shop, and was on a run through the town center, earbuds in, music blasting. somehow, her phone slipped out of her hand, smacking face first onto the ground in front of someone else, “fucking christ - sorry,” she grumbled, snatching her phone off the ground, flipping it over to reveal the cracked screen, “of course it cracked,” the girl mumbled under her breath, rolling her eyes at her own actions.

max had been trying to clear his head, walks had never really done it for him before but he figured what the hell let’s give it a shot. what he wasn’t expecting was bumping into penny, well penny’s phone while he was out. he almost didn’t even realize it was her, his face at the ground until he glanced up, his voice catching in his throat. “it’s uh - it’s fine pen.”
