you’re the kindest girl i know. olivia smiled at wren, her cheeks a soft pink at the compliment coming from the male’s lips. ❛ thank you. gosh darn it, wren, you’re gonna make me cry, ❜ she said and laughed as she quickly brushed her fingers across her cheeks, while looking at wren. ❛ i think… everything will work itself out, wren. honestly, i think you need to just… take the time and give your heart a chance to heal. and you know, if you’re meant to be with chanel or if you’re meant to be with valerie… it will happen when it’s supposed to. ❜ olivia honestly believed that. ❛ soulmates find their way back to each other. and who knows, maybe you weren’t supposed to be with either of them? maybe your soulmate is still out there, just waiting for you. ❜
Meant to be with Chanel or if you’re meant to be with Valerie. “I don’t like Chanel” said Wren confused, “we were best friends a long time ago, and then there was a long time where we never spoke and I never came back. Then I came back and she was different, and I was different. It worked for a moment, and now it doesn’t. That’s what’s so annoying about what everyone has been saying to me, Chanel this, Chanel that. I don’t like her. She was just my best friend. But I was just friends with the memory of her, not the girl she is” he explained.
“Oh, I can see that” chuckled the blonde “Oh, well if that helps” smiled Skylar “The only thing I would get if I got here to try to shoot would be more stress if I’m honest” admitted the blonde “Basketball is not the perfect sport when you are 5ft short” chuckled the blonde “But it seems you’re doing great… at least is what I can see looking at your crowd”
“Let’s get you some height” said Wren handing her the ball and crouching down to pick her up at the thighs and lift her up way high. “She runs down the court with the ball, she’s a giant” he called out as he made their way over to the hoop. “She dunks it, Skylar Gray is a monster on the court! The crowd goes WILD” he called out as she put the ball in the hoop and he put her down, Wren laughing through it all.
Rory shook her head with disagreement” I wouldn’t worry about it, i’m sure you’ll have more oppurtunities to do the dirty.” she nudged him, before finishing the subject. “I should take Nana’s advice, only way to get over someone is to get under someone new but alas i think i;m going to keep it in my pants, sand behave myself.”
“Eh, I’ll get there when I get there. I’m not ready for anything right now” said the boy, a lot of people (including nana) had told him to just move on and figure out what he likes and who he likes it with. But Wren knows himself better than that, just like his sister, they get attached easy. “I’ll be honest, I think Nana is way cooler than either of us” said Wren with a laugh. She really was. How she got two dweebs for grandkids was beyond him.
“I think you need to cut yourself some slack. I mean you’re a victim in all of this too and while I get why some people think it was a dick move for you to cut ties with the both of them, I understand where you’re coming from.” That’s exactly why it was difficult for Vienna to pick a side at first. Eventually, though, she found herself being by Val’s side more than usual. “If things ended because of a different reason, I would have but it didn’t.”, she told him. “Are you taking care of yourself?”
“I’m not going to pick between them. I’d rather have neither in my life, and if I feel that way ... then the two of us shouldn’t have dated, and me and Chanel shouldn’t have been friends” said Wren taking a big breath. “Enough, yeah. You’re taking good care of her though, right?” he asked, hoping that she had someone there with her.
mem: seeing how she’s been suspended I’m sure that plays a big role in not talking to her.
mem: you don’t owe me any explanation or tell me who you’re friends with. That’s your business just leave val alone. Don’t think about her or worry or look at her. You’ve done enough to her.
Wren, Stevie, Jesse, and Chase get together to go over some text messages.
@stevie-summers @jessekxller @chase-stephens
Wren: Wren was sitting with his phone plugged into the TV to cast, "Seriously, look at these" he said, happy they were having a moment away from Jonah. He felt bad about it all.
Jesse: Jesse watched as the text messages played came up on the tv. "Oh my god." He said speachless
Wren: "Also! I posted this instagram story at [insert time] and she tweeted, hear me out at [insert time]. Am I crazy??? She's tweeting about me, right?" said Wren feeling like a maniac.
Stevie: Stevie couldn't help but laugh, "This girl is really a piece of work."
Jesse: Jesse's eyes went wide. "Oh yeah thats def about you, but you could chill with the grey. My poor eyes can't unsee that."
Wren: "I wasn't thinking about that" said Wren, "I was just tryna be confident, gimme a break. Also trying to catch a new honey" he added.
Chase: Chase rolled up, "hey guys, she has strep so I'm here and why is Wren's gray sweatpants thirst trap just chillin on the tv?" said Chase as he sat down on the couch, Wren caught him up to speed and showed the texts. "So is anyone gonna tell Jonah?" he asked.
Stevie: "You look dude. Nothing wrong with showing off a bit." Stevie told Wren with a smile before turning her attention to Chase. "Not it! I got nothing to do with this. This one's on you guys."
Chase: "Can't someone just tell Juliette? I feel like she gives him bad news all the time" said Chase, hoping to god it wouldn't be him. But lets be honest, it was totally going to be him.
Jesse: Jesse shook his head "I would... but Me + Jonah + devyn = a bad discussio"
Jesse: "I just..... I can't believe she called you daddy right up in there.."
Wren: "Right? At first I was kinda into getting even with Jonah, but she kept mentioning him and then hitting on me? Like I'm usually not good with this stuff ... but even I noticed" said Wren
Jesse: "And people look at me sideways when I say she plays them mind games. The 'I only think of you' meanwhile she trynna slide down my pants and yours"
Wren: "In my defense, I am horny and weak ... and she's so hot" said Wren with a wince, "but I think she might legit be nuts, also did you see that thing about how she said I'm friends with nerds?? The audacity when she's wanted like half of us"
Stevie: "You think she would've learned after screwing you over." Stevie motioned her head towards Jesse. "I guess Chase is next." she patted the boy's back.
Chase: "I mean, she called me a perv ... so I think that I'm safe for now" said Chase, "also two out of three of these conspiracies are traaaaaaaaaaaash. Riley not being blind? That's a low blow" he added, kinda annoyed.
Jesse: "Yeah, shes hot be let me be real. Her head game is weak and the sex is kinda boring." Jesse said with a shrug. "Bro. I heard that the car accident she was in was like.. really bad. She told me she was in the hospital for months."
Stevie: "Couldn't be me." Stevie shook her head. "But yeah, I'm not really sure why she would think Riley would lie about something like that."
Jesse: "She said its because shes good at cheer." Jesse said pulling out his phone and pulluing up her instagram and scrolling. "Whats a worlds champion?" He said before watching some videos from before her accident. "Oh my god how does someone do flips like that????" He said a bit shook. "I don't think shes lying. I've witnessed her walk into a door once"
Chase: "Riley was the best on the team before the accident, and she definitely still kicks ass" said Chase.
Wren: "The sex was boring? Not doing that again" said Wren with an eyeroll.
Jesse: "And shes hot." Jesse pointed out. "Go griffin, hot and flexiable" He said with a laugh. "Was Val boring in bed too? God I got lucky with Olivia."
Wren: "We only fucked once" said Wren, "didn't even get my dick sucked" admitted Wren.
Stevie: "So hot." Stevie smiled to herself. "Cut these girls some slack, at least you all get off by the end of it." she teased them. "But seriously dude, get your dick sucked. Have fun."
Wren: "People keep playing me, do I just look like I enjoy used by girls with no perks?" asked Wren, half joking.
Jesse: "stop!" Jesse said shaking his head. "You deserve it all, wrenny." Jesse added on. "Okay but like, If imma go down on her, she should at least return the favor." Jesse pointed out. "What if you gave all the head and didn't get any back?" he asked Stevie
Stevie: "That's gotta be someone's kink." Stevie said as a joke. "I'm sure you'll get your dick sucked soon." she gave Wren a thumbs up. "Well that's just being inconsiderate. I like to hookup with nice people that care about making me feel good as well." she said, placing her hand over her heart.
Wren: "I swear to god, cone of silence ... looking at you Chase. But I've never gotten head, only given it" said Wren, kind of embarrassed.
Jesse: "Wren, baby. You have to be more assertive." Jesse pointed out. "But Devyn would prob do it if you asked her, but like I said. It was weak." He added in. "But we can't deny shes a simp for simp nation"
Wren: "Girls just aren't into me. Maybe I should just take Asher up on his offer" joked Wren, well about the second half. "She is! That's what makes no sense" he replied.
Stevie: "Dude, how many times do I have to tell you? Girls are into you. I wouldn't lie to you." Stevie shook her head. "I mean I heard Asher already made himself quite comfortable in your room at the party so..."
Jesse: "Careful. Make sure that boy gets tested before you even look at him." He said with a laugh. "There are plenty of single hot girls in this school that would love you blow you." Jesse took out his phone again. "You guys should see the texts between me and devyn"
Chase: Chase kept his damn mouth shut about the fact that it did not happen.
Wren: Wren passed the connector to Jesse, "Feel free to demonstrate to the class" he said.
Stevie: "God there's more?" Stevie asked after laughing
Jesse: Jssse plugged in his phone. “This is the text message saying she thinks about me and my dick when she is in bed alone” he said before scrolling a big more up. “This is her telling me how much she likes my dick and then throws in a hope it runs in the family comment. Like gross.” He said before scrolling to the bottom “and this is her apologizing for it because I actually stood up for myself and let’s not forget how she tweeted the world that I was small.”
Wren: "Yeah calling a man small, not cool" said Chase, war flashbacks to the gossip blog anons.
Jesse: “I’m not even small and hate to share I’m not even average.” He said with a shrug. “She just trying to make all the girls think I am so they stay away but jokes on her because Olivia loves me and not just for my dick size”
Wren: "Not to shit on her sexuality and stuff, but what's with the dick obsession? And voicing it that much? Like if I tweeted about boobs like that, I would be absolutely cancelled" said Wren.
Jesse: “I heard she made out with that blond girl, Kelly’s sister. Maybe she’s gay.AND and. During spin the bottle she made out with Riley.”
Stevie: Stevie tried holding in her laugh when she read his response saying he was hard. Men. So weak. "So uh, did you ever tell Olivia about these?" she asked with raised brows.
Jesse: “I told her” he said simply. He didn’t want to say that he kissed her but they probably knew since devyn also tweeted that he was a cheater. “Told her how she was all over me and begging. Also told Jonah that but I’d love to hear how she is twisting that around even when she asked me to go back to her house with her.”
Wren: "So someone needs to tell Jonah" said Wren, kinda worried about him, "He shoulda just stayed with my sister"
Stevie: Stevie let out a sigh, "This shit is such a mess." she said as if she wasn't dealing with her own mess with girls. "Yeah like soon." she agreed. "How is she by the way?" she asked Wren.
Jesse: “Well it won’t be me. I don’t want him to think I’m doing it out of jealousy or some shit. But I also don’t want to see him hurt but like... I don’t want to give him another reason to hate me and is not talk again,”
Wren: "She's vulnerable and will hurt anyone" said Wren, "so don't try anything. Just talk to your little internet girlfriend"
Jesse: Jesse gave wren a look before pulling up rorys Instagram which presented into the tv.
Stevie: Stevie looked over at Wren with wide eyes before hitting his arm, "I wasn't going to try anything, and she's not my girlfriend."
Wren: "Guys, we're twins. Can we not do this?" said Wren with an exaggerated sigh.
Jesse: “Oh don’t worry. We are going to your page next.” He said before switching to wrens. “Devyn was right. You are hot.” He said playfully
Stevie: "Sooo hot." Stevie nodded her head and winked at Wren.
Wren: "I haven't managed to post enough to get the pictures of Chanel down on my page" said Wren, "or Valerie" he said realizing he should have probably said that first.
Jesse: “That’s what the delete button is for” he said pointing out. “Or the acrhive feature so it doesn’t delete them but they are hidden”
Wren: "I like the pictures, it's just ... they don't need to be at the top of my feed" said the boy, "haha very funny Steve"
Stevie: "They do look good in these pictures." Stevie looked through the pictures he had with the girls. "We can do like a whole photoshoot and get some sweet pics. It'll be fun. My parents have one nice ass camera we can use."
Jesse: "We can take some thirst traps and put them all up. Some snazzy captions abou how we are not all losers." Jesse pointed out as well
Wren: "Turtlenecks?" said Wren half joking, his sister had put him in one and he rather liked it. He'd never lived anywhere cold before, and he knew Stevie always commented on them.
Jesse: "I should invest in some turtle necks, i think people are tired of seeing me in plain long sleeves." He said playfully, thats really all he wore. "Are they really comfortable?"
Stevie: "Ah you know I just love the turtlenecks." Stevie teased her friend. "I think they are. We can all wear one and have one festive ass photoshoot. I'll make some corny family Christmas cards with the pictures. It'll be great." she said jokingly.
Wren: “Sounds like a plan to me” said Wren putting in a game. “But enough of that, let’s blow off some steam, boys and Steve” he said tossing each of them a controller.
“Definitely,i’ll have to keep them off with sticks.” she winked. “Hey, MINE!” she playfully swatted him when he took his sandwich, she was happy to see him eat, it put her at ease. “Yes don’t rush into anything, enjoy yourself and lastly don’t do any hanky panky on my laundry days or I will riot.” she said halway playing.
Wren put her grilled cheese back on the plate, only allowing himself the one bite. “To be fair, me and val only happened once. So I doubt anyone is going to want to sleep with me after one time again” said the boy, kinda disheartened at the whole thing. “Same goes to you though, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do”
Rory nodded she was happy that he was eating, and not depriving himself because of the drama. “I doubt it but thank you, i am amazing.” she said taking another bite of her grilled cheese. She thought about what he said and smiled, he might be on to something.”Maybe, focusing on someone else will help me move on.”she said more for herself than him. “What about you? newly single should I worry about you wooing my friends?” she teased hoping that wouldn’t be the case.
Wren laughed, “I feel like I should be more worried about my friends going after you than you should be of me going after your friends” said Wren with a smile. He stole her other grilled cheese half and took a big bite, he wanted her to think he was actually doing better. He was to a certain extent, but he didn’t want her to worry. “Any suggestions for me?” he asked.
olivia laughed softly and smiled at him. we have all the time in the world, and i don’t think you should play it safe. go for your dream, you’re an amazing photographer. her cheeks turned a soft pink instantly at the words coming from wren’s lips. couldn’t see you doing anything else. she sank her teeth into her bottom lip, ❛ thank you wren, that means a lot. and you’re right. i should follow my dreams, no matter where they take me. and that means you too. you should do it too, you know. ❜ she hoped that wren saw that. ❛ you deserve the best. nothing but that, okay? ❜ olivia took a deep breath and hummed softly.
“I think I am going to follow my dreams right out of town” said Wren, wishing he wasn’t living here right now. He wished he had only been here for a summer, and that he could have gone back to California and his biggest worry was facetiming Olivia often enough. That his days would be filled with surfing and beach volleyball, with basketball and videogames with the boys despite the time difference. “You deserve nothing but the best, you’re the kindest girl I know” Wren replied, putting his hand on her knee. She was the best of all of us.
“This probably won’t mean much coming from me but I’m sorry for how things went down. And I am happy that you’re at least sort of okay.” Vienna sighed. “She’s not doing that great.”
“Yeah things have not been great. Lost two people in one day, and it’s my fault” said Wren with a sad look on his face, “I was worried you were going to yell at me” he replied. Vienna had warned him if he hurt Valerie ... he would have a whole storm coming. V and V, always together. “I would assume so, but I’m giving her some space” said the boy, closing his locker.
Skylar couldn’t help but clap her hands and she walked into the court “Nice shoot” said the girl softly walking towards the boy. “Don’t worry at all, I was just wandering and heard the crowd going wild and I thought I should see what was going on” smiled the blonde.
“My fans are die hard” said Wren referencing the empty bleachers. “Nothing going on here, just some stress relief” replied the boy, “the crowds been great”
