“You’ve always been good at that.”  She affirmed, exchanging a passing glance before her gaze fell back to the instrument.  “It’s alright, Salem.  It’s alright.  You just worried me.  I was afraid for a moment that I had created a fiction – a friendship that was never there – but you’re still just as I remember you.”  Her eyes turned to trail his face.  “Okay.”  She sighed, intently watching his hand.  She attempted to mirror his movements, her attempt almost successful before she was met with a slipping finger.  Turning slightly, she shot Salem a crooked smile.  “Almost?”

“I think it’s just because I like you a bit,” he shrugged, laughing playfully. “I’m glad that you think so. I’ve been terrified that you’d think I was too different now that I’m back,” he admitted. Salem laughed softly, nodding his head. “It’s fine. You’ve got to stretch your fingers like you do for yoga or ballet, you know? It takes time.”

“Don’t understand why people have to argue over Twitter back to back. Sort of a coward move to me.”

[stfusalem]

“Well, I mean, just consider the kind of people that do it. It’s a no-brainer.”

[trevorkappa-blog]

“Relatable as fuck. I only check twitter to see what’s happening in the NHL, the petty drama gets so frustrating.”

[stfusalem]

“I only have it to keep up to date with my siblings, honestly. People who regularly run their mouths on that site are so trashy, it’s unbelievable.”

“Almost too many to properly reminisce.”  Emilie chimed, the act of reflection proving difficult in itself.  She wanted multifaceted – and that is exactly she got, probably to the extreme.  “You’re going to make me all sappy.”  She teased, a gentle smile parting her lips.  She got used to the feeling of steel strings, silently running her fingers across the instrument as if to get reacquainted with an old friend.  She let her head fall to his shoulder out of habit, whispered words falling from her lips.  “I thought you’d left, Sa.’  When you came back I thought you were gone.  Replaced by some stranger with a familiar face.  But you’re still here.”  As soon as she spoke, she removed herself from some invisible trance, lifting her head off of his shoulder and attempting to pretend as if the brief slip never happened.  “Yeah– let’s get to that.”

[stfusalem]

“Honestly,” he agreed, staring down at a smudge on the top of his guitar. “That’s my job,” he said with a grin, glancing over to Emilie as she rested her head against his shoulder. “I didn’t go anywhere, Em. I don’t know why I was like that,” he admitted, moving a hand to her back temporarily. “Right... Okay, so you start with an E minor. Second fret and the two strings second to the first one,” he said, showing her with his hand.

“See! How much fun would that have been. Make sure you tell me the story afterwards, I love hearing about self absorbed teenagers crying over Tiger Beat headlines.” 

[stfusalem]

“The sad thing about this whole thing is that I’m pretty sure they’re in their twenties and still this immature. Like sure, if you’re eighteen or younger, I’d give you lee-way because you’re obviously still a baby. But when you hit your twenties, you lose that wiggle room.”

“You hate your generation for just because two girls were talking about a fight?”

[stfusalem]

      “Yes. 100%. I mean, if it were an actual fight, then I’d be interested. The internet isn’t real, I don’t know why people waste their time. Plus, people who start drama on the internet just want attention and well, unfortunately, millennials are huge attention seekers. I can’t deal with that. A generalization, of course. I know some millennial students here are actually here to get an education and not parade their drunken spoilt ass in our face on the regular. Maybe it’s an Irish thing. We just prefer to bottle each other and then buy a pint for the table in apology.”

“You should have turned around told them something that could cause them a serious crisis. Like, Beyonce died or Kanye got caught cheating on Kim. They probably would have pissed their pants which would have been worth watching.”

[stfusalem]

“Fuck, I missed out on such an opportunity. Did you hear Beyonce got hit by a bus à la Mean Girls style?”

“Good.”  She repeated, her words following suit.  “At least we’re giving this a shot, yeah?  I think it would be quite the shame to never have you in my life again.  It was never just love or lust or whatever, you know?  It was midnight bowls of cereal and hearing stories about your childhood and knowing that I would do anything for you, not because it was an obligation, but because you were one of my closest friends.”  Her legs slung lazily over the side of the bed, clearing a space next to her.  “C’mon.  Teach me whatever it is you were playing.  I’ve got some time that I’d love to waste.”

[stfusalem]

“It was a lot of things, wasn’t it?” he asked, raising his brows with a smile. He loved being around Emilie. She always eased his mind, made him feel better. “You’re my best friend, you know,” he shrugged, brushing his fingers over the strings. “Okay,” he said, handing her the guitar. “It takes some time to get used to, but you’re a fast learner.” 

[stfusalem]

“I was trying to listen to my Latin lesson today and all I could hear were these two basic bitches behind me talking about Twitter drama. I fucking hate my generation.”

[emilieohmy-blog]

“Okay.”  Emilie responded, her body releasing tension at his assurance.  She slipped her shoes off, bringing stockinged legs to rest upon his bed comfortably – the symbolic end of what seemed like weeks of formality.  “I trust you.  Possibly when it comes to matters greater than what song to play.  If anyone can get themselves back from hell in one piece, it’s you, you know.”

[stfusalem]

“Good,” he smiled, biting his bottom lip. “I mean, I know that I’m not exactly the most reliable person. At least based on the older experiences we’ve had. But I’m trying to work on it and I think after some time, everything will be okay.”

[stfusalem]

@salemoverdose: who gives a fuck tho

[stfusalem]

RT @smorgs: my life: constantly having to repeat myself to professors bc apparently my irish accent really is /that/ hard to understand????

[emilieohmy-blog]

“That’s a bit concerning.  Especially considering the fact that I know almost as much – and I’ve never been involved by more than association.”  Pensive eyes met his for a brief moment, before trailing away in thought.  “Just stay safe, okay?  Stay safe.”  She asked, her voice barely above a whisper.  “You have no idea how long I’ve waited to hear that.”

[stfusalem]

“You don’t know a lot of details, and that’s what their worried about,” he said, shrugging a shoulder. “I’ve got this, Em. I promise.”

[marcuspierce]

     That’s an interesting way to describe your life. Honestly. I need all the details now because I get pleasure out of hearing these stories.  

[stfusalem]

You do not want to know anything about my life. I’d have to kill you.
