Maddie had to say: her life on the outside was always so beautiful, full of elegance and poise fashion, but of course, if you looked too close, things were uglier than anyone could ever imagine. Sure, living in the biggest house on the big hill seemed so picturesque and sweet, but no one would suspect that Madeline herself was an illegitimate child of some trashy roadie her mother drunkenly hooked up with a few months before her wedding and kept a secret for decades. They wouldn’t suspect that her parents kept her at arm’s length, despite how hard she tried to win their approval, and this resulted in her unsafe and treacherous journey into uppers, designer drugs, anything to keep her going, to keep her sharp. Before she knew it, she had a full blown addiction, but she could stop any time she wanted and she did, here and there, but the itch was always there. She had enough money for any designer drug she wanted, but she tried to convince herself otherwise - to spend time with her siblings, get to know them, although even that seemed like quite the bust lately. 

“Hey, Hunger Games for clothes? Darlin’, I would never. I’m quite particular about what I put on my body, and I’m the same way in my store, Steel Magnolia’s. Ya heard of me? It’s right in town.” She smiled, that sugary sweet smile that Maddie always had on her face. “Oh, I understand that. Parents can be so complicated, can’t they? What’s with yours? Mine are just too boring for me to stomach sometimes. That’s the story I know, at least.” Maddie smiled, shaking her hand. “Madeline Covington. It’s nice to meet ya, Sofia. You can just call me Maddie though, no need to be so proper.” 

squinting her eyes, sofia nods. “yeah, i think i have heard of steel magnolias,” she says. “did you open it yourself or just inherit it?” 

sofia shuffles her feet. “i dunno, my parents are just ....” she sighs, at a loss for words. “well, i won’t bore you with all the details yet and scare you away before we even have a chance at becoming friends.” she gives the other girl a lopsided grin, as an apology. “nice to meet you. covington? covington. why does that name sound so familiar?” she said this moreso to herself than as a question to maddie, but she wouldn’t be opposed to an answer from the girl, too.

Lifting the round lenses from covering her brown orbs Anneliese walked into Blue Heaven and looked around for the familiar face of Sofia stopping one of the other staff and walking through the place to find her. Her heels clacked against the cobble stone that lined the free spirit eatery. Her eyes lit up as she saw her, “When are you gonna quit this gig and come work for me where you don’t have to bust your ass this hard.” she smiled titling her head. It wasn’t long she knew Sofia but the two had an instant connection when they met, at least from Annie’s point of view. “Ugh.” she sighed. “Or at least when do you get off. I wanna go do something fun.” she smirked. “Up for an adventure?” @sofiasofritos​

[sofiasofritos]

it had been a crazy day. a bratty kid had thrown a heap of mashed potatoes at sofia, staining her apron (which she was now thankful to be wearing). the parents had apologized profusely, and sofia accepted it with a forced smile, but she could’ve sworn she’d seen the little shithead grinning evilly at her when she walked away. 

so, when it came closer and closer towards the end of her shift, sofia was relieved to say the least. and a visit by miss anneliese vega was a pleasant surprise. the brunette was putting dirty dishes into a basin when her friend met up with her. sof rolls her eyes playfully at her comment. “oh shuttup, annie, you know i don’t have a creative bone in my body. sports? yes. math? sure. architecture? nice try.” sofia gives the other an apologetic smile. “but you know i’ll always be cheering you on from the sidelines, right?” and it was true. sofia had known from the moment she first met anneliese that they’d have a deeper connection. s doesn’t place her trust in a lot of people, but she’d consider doing so for annie. 

“you’re in luck,” she says with a glance at her watch. “i’m off in 5.” she chuckles softly at annie’s idea. sofia picks up the basin, playfully nudges annie’s shoulder with hers, and then beckons her to follow with a jerk of her head. as they’re walking back to the kitchen, she replies. “what do you have in mind, ya rebel?”

location: blue haven

time: afternoon

the lunch rush was finally starting to slow down, and thank god for that, as it was just closing in on 3 o’clock. sofia arrived at the hostess’ stand for her next table assignment, and her co-worker pointed at a table in the corner of the restaurant. 

pulling out her pen and notepad, sofia licks the tip of the pen and turns to a blank page. once she arrives, sofia begins rambling off her usual greeting: “welcome to blue haven, my name is sofia, and i’ll be your server today. can i start you off with any --” she then looks up at her customer and her jaw drops ever-so-slightly looking at the person sitting there. her voice jumped up an octave.“--drinks?” she licks her lips that had just gone dry and clears her throat. “uh, reagan. hey, how are you? good to...see you.” 

it wasn’t that big of a town, so sofia shouldn’t be too surprised that she had bumped into her most recent fling. nevertheless, it was a bit awkward. the brunette tucks a strand of her curly hair behind her ear nervously.

“That’s it? You’re not driving much a hard bargain, kid,” Gale chuckled, shaking her hand. He recognized her, but he wouldn’t be surprised if he had seen her on the beach more than once. He hung out there more than he did at home, sometimes waking up on the beach by accident. It was often better than staying home where he was reminded of the isolation. Being alone outdoors felt better. “I’m Gale. How long have you been doing this, anyways? You’re pretty good, and it takes more than just skill to teach kids. You gotta have a lot of patience.”

“hey,” she throws her hands up in defeat. “what can i say? i don’t ask for much. just the simple things in life.” and this was true, regarding this moment and in her life right now. being someone coming from a family with money, sofia would much rather work hard for what she has than for it to be handed to her on a silver platter. that being said, she is not one to turn down free beverages or snacks. 

“nice to meet ya, gale.” she flushes a bit at his compliment. “well - that’s what it is all about, i guess. patience and dedication. you gotta have them focus on one thing at a time and nail that down before moving onto the next. for example, i had this student work on his position on the surfboard today. he didn’t perfect it (i don’t really believe in perfection, anyways), but it improved a lot.” she smiles, thinking of the lesson. “it was a good lesson. there’s such a sense of pride a teacher has when your student works hard and it pays off.” sofia inhales and exhales slowly. she feels a bit self-conscious about how much she talked. “sorry for talking your ear off,” the brunette mutters with a chuckle. “i’d be glad to give you some pointers, though. do you have a board or would you like to borrow one from the shack? or would you rather i just tell them to you?”

[sofiasofritos]

ofnihilism​:

he glanced up from the book in his lap, thumb brushing across the sand-spackled text. he liked the ambiance of the beach: the roar of the waves breaking against a shell covered shore, the distant incoherence of voices, the brush of a gull’s cry on a sea breeze. one voice broke through it all, capturing attentions he hadn’t thought he would be expected to give. he peered up, squinting against the sunlight. ha gave a scrunch-faced, warm, but crooked smile in response, clearing his throat a little. “s’alright, i guess. nothin’ too excitin’.” 

sofia dropped the surf board onto the ground, her body following on top of it not too long after. “whatcha reading?” she asked curiously eyeing the guy’s book. “also, sorry to be a huge pain, but would you happen to have an extra water bottle? all i’ve had is sea water,” she jokes. sofia returns a smile back at him.

“Your students are putting me to shame,” Gale chuckled, pulling his hair off his face from a recent wipe out. The current was brutal farther out and he should have been taking it easy after not touching even a boogie board for nearly a year, but he had assumed any boarding was no different than picking up a bike after a few years. Sand peppered his hair and freckled his skin. “My pride is hurt on this fine day, that’s what’s going on. I’m gonna have to come to you to brush up on my skills.”

the brunette chuckles softly. “yeah, i’m always pleased when they have a good day out there,” she says, looking out over the water. then, turning her head so she’s facing the man, the corner of sofia’s mouth turn upwards into a smile. “i’d be happy to...for the small price of a strawberry banana smoothie from sun sips café.” she pulls her hair up into a messy bun, wiping the stray pieces of it out of her eyes. “i’m sofia, by the way,” she reaches a hand forward to shake his. “got your board ready?”

Maddie smiled, shaking her head. “Well, darlin’, you do better than me, that’s for sure. I never was one for surfin’. I was more of the country club girl back home, sippin’ good mimosas by the pool and lookin’ at the cute lifeguards. Ya should’ve seen them back home. The best lifeguard was Chip Daniels - so cute. Like a young Marlon Brando.” She spoke, her Virginia accent coming through as she thought back to Richmond. It was her home all of her life and most people didn’t leave Richmond, but she had - onto bigger, better things. She missed it sometimes, but Key West was just as beautiful, and even more exciting. “Oh, yeah, of course. I mean, I miss ‘em and all, but I like havin’ a full closet and knowing all my things are kept and stayin’ there. A jean jacket always went missin’ or a cute dress of mine at home.” She smiled, slipping down her sunglasses to look at the girl. “Oh, Miami. Ain’t that excitin’. I’ve been a few times, with family friends and all. It’s a fun place. Oh, me? Well - I graduated from fashion school, wanted to strike out on my own. I also have my half siblings here that I never met - it’s a long story, but wanted to meet ‘em. They’re - still warmin’ to me, I think.” She shrugged. “What about you?” 

“hey, that sounds like a pretty great life,” sofia remarks with a coy smile. her eyes avert to brushing off some sand from her legs as the other gushed about this cute lifeguard named chip daniels. “quite a name,” she mumbled with an airy chuckle. relating to guy crushes was not something that sofia could ever relate to. ever since she was a young girl with an abundance of guy friends and not-so-many girl friends, sof knew there was something different about her. she didn’t like any of her guys like that, but boy did that girl down the street from her who could ride a skateboard make her go wobbly at the knees. the brunette flushed thinking about her, and then she finally pulls herself back into the present conversation.

“yeah, it must be nice not having to play the hunger games for your clothes,” sofia laughed. she nods along as maddie tells her a bit about her life. “that’s great,” she replies with a smile. “it is a fun place, but it’s better for me to be out here, far away from my parents.” she bites her lower lip. “by the way --” she extends a hand “--name’s sofia. sofia stewart. what’s yours?”

"hmm," sofia pauses, mulling this over. "probably a horse. strong, stubborn, free-spirited."

[sofiasofritos]

madder lake red; would you ever kiss someone (or accept a kiss) on a first date?

sofia's cheeks flush red. "i want to be all classy 'n stuff and say no, but to be honest," she shrugs, "if the chemistry is there, it's there. i don't think there has to be a timeline of when you should and shouldn't be with someone."

If it was one thing that Maddie just adored about being in the Keys and being a southern baby, even back in Virginia, it was the warm weather. With a messy bun tied up in her blonde hair, she sat in her bikini, just soaking up the beautiful sun above her. She was watching the hot boys surf, as well as the other kids surfing, and she smiled at the instructor as she came back. “You got a real talent, sweetheart - I could never take care of a kid for that long. Too much effort, but it does make me feel homesick for my little siblings. I’m the oldest, so it just feels good to have my closet be full and not havin’ things missin’ now.” She smiled, pulling her sunglasses down. “I just love the beach, don’t you? Such a lovely time. I thought Virginia weather was nice, but this here Florida weather is real keen. You from around here, sugar?” 

sofia let out an airy laugh at the other’s words. “thanks,” she breathed out, taking a moment to catch her breath. “most of the time, they’re not too bad to teach. although, sometimes i get the occasional pain-in-the-ass kid. (don’t tell my boss i said that, though.)” 

she slipped off her wetsuit so she was in just her bikini and rung out her hair again. she smiled as she listened to the girl’s story. “hear, hear,” the brunette states with a soft chuckle. “i don’t have any siblings, but i can imagine that to be a bit annoying.” a pause. “i’m from miami. oh, you’re from virginia? i’ve never been. what made you move out here to the keys?” sofia leaned against her surfboard so as to not get her entire body covered with sand.

[sofiasofritos]

flvnns​:

Adam came from a very Northern European background, which was frustrating for a kid that grew up by the beach. All he wanted was to tan - and he could tan, but it took a lot of time and energy and most of the activities Adam liked were things indoors. Machinery, fixing up old computers or software programs, and cooking - all inside. For the most part.

But it was his day off and it was the Keys and he was somewhat embarrassed to realize that he really barely went to the beach since he’s arrived. So he took his day off and headed down with a blanket, a backpack, and, to his irritation, some extra sunscreen. It was bright out today.

Sunglasses were on and eyes were shut while listening to the crooning of Foals - his all time favorite band - so he barely noticed when the other collapsed next to him, until he felt eyes on him and he turned to the side a bit, sand falling from his bare shoulders. “I’m sorry, um, it’s going alright,” he said, a little smile forming on his face. “There’s not a whole lot else I have going on, right now - I’m sure you keep yourself busy with surfing lessons, huh?”

it had been a busy day for the brunette. first, she had a short 4-hour shift at blue haven and then an hour for a quick bite to eat before her surfing lesson at 1pm. it had been a tiring, but good, lesson. the boy she was teaching was catching on fairly quickly, so it made her job easier.

“yeah,” she exhales with her reply, still trying to catch her breath. now that she wasn’t in the water, it was hot as fuck. she carefully slips out of her wetsuit until she’s in just her bathing suit. “hey, do you have any extra sunblock?” she asks the other. “what have you been up to, other than sun bathing?” she teases him.

[sofiasofritos]

graham-rhodes​:

graham had already been pretty tan from living in los angeles, but he didn’t want to lose that so he was laying on the beach in his short bathing suit with no shirt on. minding his own business, he heard someone speaking to him. he had his eyes closed so he didn’t see them come back to their own towel. “i actually am! and i wish i had a lot of energy.” he laughed softly as he leaned up a bit and looked at her. “what were you doing out there?” he asked, curiously. 

sofia laughed along with him. “i was teaching a kid how to surf,” she states gently. “i’m a surfing instructor. well, part-time. i also work at blue haven.” she throws her wet hair up into a messy bun so it’s out of her face; it was hot out today. “having fun sunbathing?” she asks with a playful smirk. then, a beat. “have you gone swimming yet today? the water’s perfect.”

[sofiasofritos]

sofia had just finished a particularly tiring surf lesson. she waved goodbye to her student and dropped her board onto the sand, her body soon following after. “whew, kid’s got a lot of energy,” she chuckles, speaking to the closest person nearby. it was nice to talk to an adult again. the brunette looks up at the person and decides to start up a conversation: “how’s your beach day going?” she begins stretching the aches in her body out and then squeezes out the remaining salt water from her hair.
