JESSE & MADDIE.

"Don't ever scare the hell out of me like that again. If there's a blackout, we go by the buddy system. I don't want you to be the white girl who dies in the first five minutes of the horror movie," Jesse announced as they walked through Maddie's front door, a bag of takeout in hand. He hadn't seen her since the Met gala, so when she texted inquiring about a hangout, they jumped at the chance to unwind with their closest friend. "I couldn't decide between mexican or chinese, so I got both. If you don't want either, I can postmates something different," He offered, flopping down on her couch once the food was safely set on the coffee table. "How is it that you don't look at all bothered by this heat?" Jesse sputtered, seeing Maddie looking as radiant and cool as ever. @thebookoflcve

starter for Ethan Briggs! // @thebookoflcve

"You know, I've heard your name in stories a lot this past week that I don't know what question to ask first." She did actually but starting off her lunch with Ethan with what she deemed to be a heavy question did not seem right so she decided to start with that instead. "Do you want to talk about your good news first?"

never did she ever think that at twenty eight years of age, she'd be forced to start over. for her entire life, she had lived with rose colored lenses covering her eyes, living the life of a princess and knowing nothing but that, and not wanting to know anything but that. she thought she'd marry a prince and continue her days carrying on the legacy of her family. but in a cruel twist of fate, her parents wanted a 'better life' and took that all away from her, resulting in her coming to another country and being an absolute nobody. she was taking a vow of silence in the windsor home, hadn't spoken to her parents in months because of how angry she was and instead, kept herself locked up in her room - as mad as she was, lord knew she couldn't survive living on her own. when she had heard they were gone for the day, she waited a while just to be safe before exiting her room and making her way down the stairs, only freezing when she saw who was sitting in the living room, biting the insides of her cheeks to prevent them from turning bright red. "clifton." she said, putting a tight lipped smile on her face, posture immediately stiffing as she tried to keep her composure and not appear like that babbling little girl she had once been years ago. "my father's not here. i believe he's at the animal shelter, you know, pretending to care about cats when he's deathly allergic and all."

press for wicked had been the most fun fiona had since the trio's days in new york, doing the original run. while mathilda was running late, as usual, fiona had already showed up and begun adding to the makeup already on her face, while ethan sat back already ready. "so you were married for, what, five minutes? i always thought i'd be the one getting drunk and getting hitched, you're too serious for such things. she's hot though," she remarked with a pat to his cheek. @thebookoflcve

"you're not a club guy, are you?" jesse couldn't help but grin at the lanky young man who was sitting on a couch, looking thoroughly unimpressed by the entire scene in front of him. flopping down beside the stranger, jesse offered a friendly smile while sticking out their hand, the music making it difficult to hear much at all. "i'm jesse," @thebookoflcve

" Thanks man." After putting the weights down, Lukas patted Arlo on the back, not caring that they were both drenched in sweat. " It's been a while since I worked out that hard. " He had not realised how much he had missed it. Hopefully his shoulder would not torture him too much in the next few hours and days. Lukas had taken the habit of avoiding to put too much strain on his wounded shoulder but perhaps it was finally healing. " I fucking miss it." And baseball. He would give anything to be able to play again. " Please don't take anything for granted. " One's life could change in just a moment. His had.

" Have you given more thought about our last conversation ? " Hazel was nothing if tenacious. She would not let Jake forget about her proposal. Some collaboration with 3DC3 would be amazing for her. It would single her out from her group and create serious heat. Kpop was all the rage. Perhaps it could also help the spice girls to set a foot in a new market and invite new featuring. " We could even do a verse in tamil. It'd be good business for you and your boys to have a hit in India." And good business for Hazel as well. That way she would check so many boxes and spread her web.

" You know Cade just took me to Italy because I wanted a nice gelato. " And spritz and pizza. " He even bought me shoes. " She showed Atticus the new pair she was wearing. She doubted that he would have noticed. " Aren't they nice ? " As if the shoes were any different from the hundred pairs she already had in her dressing room. " You'll have to step up your game if you want to stay my favourite." She teased her brother before sticking her tongue out at him. " I accept diamonds, properties, holidays, books written about how amazing I am ..." All things she already had. Apart from the book but surely if Atticus ever wrote his memoirs he could say nice things about her.
