Who missed me?

[smgnbd-deactivated20160714]

Where did you go?

[vanessxnne]

Deep within the depths of my mind. I ended up getting lost. It was kinda scary, actually.

[darthxtveiter]

Yeah. He doesn’t like sharing anything of importance with me. 

[vanessxnne]

Oo, that sounds a little bitter. I'll beat some sense in him, too, when I get the chance.

[ashleysmgreene-deactivated20150]

That’s so true, I just can’t get enough of you…that rhymed. Where have you been?!

[vanessxnne]

You know me, Ashley. See, I can rhyme, too! Haha. I've been around.

[highschoolsmusical]

[vanessxnne]

Please do. Hey, has he…said anything about me?

[darthxtveiter]

Um… No? But honestly, he doesn’t tell me much of anything. 

[vanessxnne]

Really? I thought you guys were thick as thieves.

[vanessxnne]

Who missed me?

[ashleysmgreene-deactivated20150]

Uh, I did!

[vanessxnne]

You always miss me, you goofball.

[vanessxnne]

Nothing really comes to mind. Keep an eye on Skylar while I’m in Vancouver.

[darthxtveiter]

Easy enough. Was planning on going to beat some sense into the idiot this weekend anyways.

[vanessxnne]

Please do. Hey, has he...said anything about me?

wide awake || jared and nessa

He wanted to be sad. More than anything, Jared wanted to need to cry. Sitting in the front porch, phone in hand though? He was just mad. He was so indescribably angry. At Mark, Shep, Sam… mainly though? He was mad at himself. Every nightmare he’d had since the first time Mark ran off had not only come back, but realized and now he was faced with trying to piece himself back together and making a difficult choice.

He was so relieved that even if she was bluffing, Ness was coming. He needed someone there, even if just to keep him from doing anything stupid. It wasn’t long after she told him she’d landed that the car she rented was pulling up, Jared getting up and moving to pull open her door and waiting for her to stand before pulling her into his chest and holding tight. His voice shook as he whispered into her hair.

“I’m so stupid…”

[vanessxnne]

The flight had been the perfect length for Vanessa to think everything over. Initially, when boarding the plane, she had one, clear goal in mind; Mark was going to die. This was certainly a fight that was long overdue. But the length of the flight, mixed with the mind-numbing amount of alcohol she'd had, was enough to get her thinking clearly. This trip needn't be about Mark, but about Jared. Her friend was really hurting and, while she felt he had no one to blame but himself, she still needed to be there for him before anything else.

As her rental car pulled along his driveway, she got a full dosage of the blame that Jared was putting on himself. He looked ragged, sitting in the chair on his front porch. His air looked unkempt and his beard untrimmed. She faintly wondered how long he'd been out of work for this to grow, sure they'd sent him home.

He was there before she'd even opened the door, grasping her in a bear hug that she returned gingerly. She sighed softly at his words and rubbed his shoulders lightly.

"No, you're not," Nessa murmured in reply. "A little thick in the skull, but not stupid."

[vanessxnne]

I’m alright, I guess. A little stressed, if I’m to be honest.

[darthxtveiter]

Sorry to hear that, lovely. Anything I can do to help you out?

[vanessxnne]

Nothing really comes to mind. Keep an eye on Skylar while I'm in Vancouver.

[vanessxnne]

Only the ones I wouldn’t mind biting. How are you, my love?

[darthxtveiter]

Ah. Well then, I’m flattered, hah. I’m good. Great, actually. How about you?

[vanessxnne]

I'm alright, I guess. A little stressed, if I'm to be honest.

[vanessxnne]

[text] I never was good at lying to you, Nessa.... you know that.

[text] Well over a text is a little different, Sky.

[text] But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for now.

[vanessxnne]

[text] I love you, Monster.

[text] Love you, too, Jarhead.

[vanessxnne]

[text] I'm not on anything from before, Ness. I'm high as a fucking kite right now, but I swear to you-- its not what you think. I promised you. I kept that promise. [text] Answer me. Do i look like a twink? Do you know what that is? I straight up thought it was like Tinkerbell.

[text] Okay... I'm trusting you.

[text] Yes, I know what it is, and no you don't look like a twink.

[vanessxnne]

[text] Because he warned me. He was the one who dealt with the meltdowns and the depression and the anger... and I ran off and eloped behind his back. I married the one person he could safely say he hated... [text] I let him down. Just like I let you down, and I just... [text] I fucked up.

[text] It's alright, Jare. It's not you I'm mad at.

[text] I'm gonna catch the red eye. And I'll be there soon, I promise.

[darthxtveiter]

I’m sure you say that to all the guys… haha.

[vanessxnne]

Only the ones I wouldn't mind biting. How are you, my love?

[vanessxnne]

[text] Always the sinner, never the saint. That's me <3 [text] Well. Fuck. I told Aaron I was going to become a nun. Now what? [text] Also, do you think I'm a twink?

[text] Skylar, are you on drugs?

[text] Because you can be honest with me.

[vanessxnne]

[text] I need you to be here, not threatening my husband, Vanessa. Please. [text] Misha hates me, Jensen is still freezing me out. I NEED you, right now. None of the reminders that I'm stupid, of how he's fucked up.. i need my sister. I'm falling apart and I don't know what to do.

[text] I'll be there as soon as I can, Jare. You know that.

[text] Why does Misha hate you?
