status : closed for @mvxsinc setting : trip’s car on the way to the wedding
MAX HAS BEEN IN TRIP’S car a lot over the years, joined him on errand runs and ice cream trips, the occasional mental breakdown. he still remembers swapping stories with her here 8 months ago, and how she had told him that no one was jumping to take her on any dates after the whole christian debacle. now, she’s sitting in his car in a wedding dress with a guy waiting to pledge himself to her at the guppy pond. suddenly, 8 months feels like a lifetime ago.
❝ so, good news, ❞ trip starts, gaze flicking over to her briefly. ❝ we did so good on your makeup that i don’t think anyone is even going to notice that you’re two seconds away from upchucking. bad news, you look two seconds away from upchucking. what’s up, maxie ? talk to me. ❞
