“I was walking Buster!” He countered. Finally pulling back, he allowed his hands to rest on her sides and he wiggled a brow. “How long do we have to be alone, exactly?” 

“Even Buster knows that’s bull,” she smiled, before shaking her head at his question. “Not enough.”

“Yeah, well, you might have a point but I don’t know which is more worrying; the fact they’ll find a way no matter what, or the fact they think the answer to all this is to put in bullshit curfews and security,” Alex scoffed. Taking a deep puff of the cigarette, she sighed and rolled her eyes. “We’re fucked,” she mirrored what Priya said. “How’ve you been anyway? I feel like I ain’t really spoke to you for ages.”.

“I’d say the Boogeyman. Adults can’t help reacting over-protectively. It’s like an extreme case of mom arm. I wouldn’t be surprised if local police got outsourced, though. You’d think that would be a logical next step.” Priya just shook her head. All she knew was that none of them had to deal with any of this before the merger. “You know me, I’m always just sort of around. Usual stuff. Self-absorbed cousin. Never ending artistic slump. You?”

“Heard what happened on opening night,” Alex broke the silence that had rung out over the bench she was sat on with another student. “That’s a real shitter– those theatre kids worked hard to put on that show and now this has happened they can’t do fuck all… I think I agree with the drama teacher though. Think about it, we stop the shows, start stickin’ to some fucked up curfew and buddy system, walk around everywhere in fear… We’re letting whichever sick fuck behind all this win. That’s what they want, right? People to be scared of them? Fear is power and right now whoever is behind this shit has power over all of us… Enough to cancel a show that took months to prepare and hundreds of hours work to build up.”

“It’s an illusion,” Priya shrugged. “All the rules and curfews and everything. It makes everyone feel safe, but at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter because something else still happens. I don’t think we’re letting anyone win -- it’s more like no matter what we do they find a way anyway.” Priya sighed, not really feeling the fear. It was hard for her to feel things directly in general. Maybe that was her only asset to being a punk. “So basically. We’re fucked.”

“Liar.” Seth teased accusingly. Resting his hand on her lower back, he gently tugged her closer as he kept his lips on hers. “Is anyone here?” He asked, keeping his eyes closed before he refocused on continuing to kiss her. 

“What? You came here,” she pointed out. Priya felt herself blushing at his question, knowing answering it would only lead to trouble. “I think we’re alone. Why?”

[priyabhvndari]

sethfultcn:

“Just what’re you trying to do here?” He asked as he lulled his head to one side with a smirk on his lips. “I was hoping you would, because I think so too. I could prove you wrong, or I could do this.” And with that, he stepped closer, and reached to tip her chin up before leaning down to kiss her. 

“Absolutely nothing,” she said, holding up her hands. The kiss caught her off guard -- it had happened a few times with him in particular, but the last time she actually had a boy in her house kissing her was... well. Never. She let it happen though. Just like she always did, to a certain point.

sethfultcn:

“How far are we talking? Like past cheek?” He pretended to be oblivious to her flirtation before winking back. “He’s always the reason for the season. – Are you accusing that it wasn’t?”

“Past cocky,” she corrected, smiling. “So now Buster is Jesus? You know what, actually, I agree. -- Yup. What are you gonna do about it?”

[priyabhvndari]

sethfultcn:

“You don’t have to be so cocky about it.” He teased eventually showing her a small smile. “Thank you, thank you. I’m sure Buster thanks you too.” He gestured toward the pup. “What happened to whimsical meetings without technology interfering?” 

“I can go a lot further than that,” she winked. “Of course. Buster is the reason we’re here, after all. -- But that would require this to actually be spontaneous.”

[priyabhvndari]

sethfultcn:

“Oh, you’re getting cheeky now? Alright.” Seth leaned to nudge her back with his shoulder as he followed her. “I think I’m good with just water. – By the way, he’s still not my wingman. I can make all of this–” He gestured between them. “Happen on it’s own.”

“I’m always cheeky. I give good cheek,” she said, only slightly laughing. “Sounds good.” Priya started to pour out a glass before raising her brows. “So then why didn’t you just text me?”

   — ( ╰ ♥ ╮  ❝  The whole auditorium sitch is such a misfortune, I agree. ❞  But it’s hard to tell she cares while she’s primping in front of the mirror hanging in her locker.    ❝ Anyway I had to order a new cheer uniform because I dropped like seven pounds on the Paleo diet I did last month.❞    Taking a step back and shutting her locker door, she faces the person unfortunate enough to be caught in a conversation with her.   ❝ What do you think? Better fit? ❞

“Are you serious?” Priya looked around herself, brows furrowed like maybe she was imagining this conversation. “You’re from Northlake. Shouldn’t you care a little more when one of your own goes missing?”

[priyabhvndari]

sethfultcn:

Seth found it difficult to keep his frown when Buster was licking his nose, but he managed. “No, I don’t. What kind of business meeting? Swapping owners perhaps?” He pointed accusingly as he narrowed his eyes at the pup. “I’m coming, but only because I’m thirsty too.” He finally cracked a smile as he folded his arms.

“The words I think he used were involuntary wingman?” She teased, nudging him with her leg since Buster was still in her arms. “Well take your pick. We’ve got water, lots of almond milk. Sangria. Just kidding, my mom would disown me for that. Everything else is still good, though.”

[priyabhvndari]

sethfultcn:

Seth pursed a much more dramatic frown than necessary before giving a shrug. Deciding to play it cool, he pointed to the street. “Listen, I just went where he lead me. So you better ask him, not me.”

Laughing, she held Buster up to Seth’s nose for him to lick before looking at the little guy’s face. “Is that true? Did you miss me? -- Ah.” Trying to keep a straight face, she looked back at Seth with a smile. “He said he came here for a business meeting, and that you’re full of it. You know anything about that?” Pressing her lips together, she nodded back towards the house. “He also said he wants a drink of water so we’re going inside. You coming?”

As Buster lead Seth closer to Priya’s house, he could tell the dog recognized her. The loose grip on his leash didn’t help when he jetted off from Seth all together, leaving him to chase after him. Out of breath, he leaned his palms against his thighs. “Are you kidding me? He really does love you more than me.” He finally said as he approached them before laughing.

Giggling to herself before she turned around, she scooped Buster up in her arms before shrugging apologetically. “The heart wants what it wants, I guess. What are you guys doing in Southbank? Because I know it’s not for the scenery.”

@priyabhvndari

When Seth usually walked Buster he more or less kept closer in the Northlake area, only today… he decided to venture to the south side in hopes he could catch a glimpse of Priya. Remembering where he’d dropped her off after their… meet up of sorts. It was a long shot considering he hadn’t actually texted her about it, but he’d never been good at communication, anyway. So as nonchalantly as possible he let his mutt guide him through the streets, playing it chill whenever Buster stopped to smell a new tree.

Since it was relatively nice outside, Priya had promised to help her mom plant some flowers in the front yard. About halfway through her mom had been called in to the restaurant, and Priya decided to finish planting as a nice surprise for her when she got back. She’d just finished the azaleas when she felt a presence behind her. A short one. Turning, her face lit up at the familiar sight of her new favorite dog, who was calmly sniffing her. “Well, hello there.” Frowning, she picked up his leash, which did not seem to be attached to an owner. “Where’s your dad?” She smiled, peering down closely at Buster while he licked her face.

Garrett laughs in response, nodding in agreement, all too familiar with the standard Northlake offer. “Right? I’m sick of milkshakes and burgers all the time. How this whole town is diabetic, I’ll never understand.”

“I know. Usually the only thing safe for me there is fries. Which is fine. I love fries,” she admitted, a little sheepish. “Not usually the outdoors type unless it involves animals, so. Lead the way?”

[priyabhvndari]

garrettxrose:

“It’s no question what happened today was messed up. Disgusting anyone would think that was okay at all. It makes me feel gross just hearing about it” Garrett admits, hugging himself as he looks to the ground in discomfort. He takes a deep breath in, shaking his head to clear it before looking back up towards the other. “Would you maybe want to come with me to the lake? Maybe go swimming, get our minds off it?”

“I know, god.” Priya just sighed, finding it was harder and harder to stay level headed about Northlake. “Yes? If not for the sole reason you not being the millionth person to ask if I wanna go to Dairy’s,” she smiled, grateful for the change of pace.

Cal blinks quickly, taking in the others appearance, his look of mild annoyance turned to one of more gruff tiredness as he gave her his best smile. “Ah, hey Priya, sorry for snapping, massive hangover and an itching for something sweet. How are you?”

“It’s okay, I understand. I think just about everyone’s on hangover mode right now. Except me. I’m just here to get some juice.”
