‘  for once in my life i want to be surrounded by people that i don’t feel like i need to impress.  ’ //from Vic!

          𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐃.    Being  at  Victoria's  side  was  nothing  short  of  a reprieve  for  Nathan,    someone  who  felt  like  the  entire  world  was  holding  a  KNIFE  to  his  throat.     Where  Blackwell's  inhabitants  seemed  to  villainize  them,     they  could  at  least  catch  their  breath  in  each  other's  vicinity.     He  saw  a  side  of  Victoria  that  she  extensively  tried  to  HIDE  with  expensive  labels  and  some  kind  of  complex,     but  at  heart,     they  weren't  so  different  and  the  struggles  of  their  own  brand  ate  away  at  them  both  in  equally  similar  fashion.

           ❛ Hey  .  .  .  There's  nobody  here  you  gotta  impress. ❜      As  she  sat  there  moping  ( looking  like  a  cemetery  angel  cut  in  marble )  he  took  the  initiative  to  swing  a  tender  arm  over  her  shoulders.      Contrary  to  popular  belief  he  too  had  a  side  to  himself  that  scarcely  made  it  to  the  forefront;    Or  so  he  HOPED.      Something  about  it  not  fitting  the  Prescott  prestige.      ❛ I  mean  it  Vic.      You  don't  owe  anybody  shit,    not  even  me.      Remember  that. ❜

          as addicting as dust and daylight was, it didn’t mean that alex was getting much better at playing it. she’d already had riely call her out for obviously looking like she didn’t know what she was doing, and now steph was having to help her get past the currently impossible big boss. it felt like just yesterday that riely was helping her past the scorpions. maybe she really wasn’t cut out for this game, but she knew she wasn’t gonna stop, either; far too stubborn for that.

          so, when steph succeeds, alex gives her a playful nudge to her shoulder with her own. before steph can even think of something witty to say, alex decides to head her off.

          “ thanks, ” she says, before quickly adding, “ and also, save the gloating, please? i don’t think my dear, fragile heart could take it right now. ”
