A-W

I agree. I wasn’t too keen on sixteen candles but my mom really enjoyed it. I think she decided it was her favorite movie.

Other than back to the future what other movies do you like? I can see why sixteen candles wouldn't be to everyone's taste though. 

I’ve actually got a few things to do at the Halliwell manor, so maybe watching Friends reruns would be preferable to that, in most people’s opinions.

A few things to do? Do you work there? Or are you just being kind and helping out?

Like you said, no plan B. Sticking to plan A and watching Friends seems like a pretty good option!

Do you have a favorite character?

If you don’t have any other plans, why not? 

Other people probably have more interesting plans, but TV's always a goo back-up right?

Why not? Oh, to hell with reputations! You seem like a nice girl and I’d totally love to hang out with you. And you have an extremely cool name! I’m jealous. 

You haven't heard? My brother and I, completely accidentally, set fire to our old school's gym in Portland, and apparently news travels fast I like that philosophy, you seem nice too. Thank you, I'm sure my mother will be pleased. Phoebe is a really nice name though, as long as you don't call yourself Regina. 

Mind if I join, watching Friends sounds like more fun than what I had planned. Which was watching Real Housewives. I’m not even a housewife.

Really? You can join if you want, I wouldn't mind company. I've still never watched that show, only heard about it.

Oh, really? Well — that can change. You need to get out there and meet people. Here’s your first — I’m Phoebe!

I don't have... The best reputation around town. But I'm sure it's lovely to meet you Phoebe, I'm Avery. 

You know, usually I’d say it’s not cool to stay home on a Friday night — but what can beat watching countless episodes of Friends? It’s only the best show ever. 

I don't have too many people to make plans with, so fake Friends are the best consolation prize. It's timeless, I could watch the show on repeat forever and never get bored. Who's your favorite character?

Well if there’s no plan B, it really might have to be?

Touche, what are your plans for tonight?

Yeah, I know — don’t you think I felt a little weird too. But, Samantha asked me to. Why I don’t know but she did.

How did that happen? I'm guessing she didn't just walk up to you and ask.

What do you mean let me pick the songs? I got asked to do the music.

That makes it weirder. The party throwers aren't exactly the people who talk to us on a regular basis. I'll rephrase though, who asked you to do the music?

People seem to actually like my music choices for the party, huh?

Your music choices? Who did you have to convince to let you pick the songs? 

Ashes, Ashes

Standing as far away from the bonfire as she could, Avery silently analysed the party goers. Part of her wanted to jump into the fun. ‘Fake it until you make it’ had to be a saying for a reason, and if she happened to fake merely being one of the crowd, maybe no-one would notice. However, as her luck would have it, she was stuck on the outside – both literally and metaphorically. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t shake the ‘weird girl’ label. As her eyes glanced around, she noticed someone else standing by the sidelines. Walking over to the other girl, a smile appeared on her face, before shrugging. “I normally answer to Avery, but I guess ‘you’ could work too.” She didn’t know much about the other girl, simply having noticed her in the school corridors, but she couldn’t exactly walk away without making herself seem strange. “Is there a reason you’re not in with the crowd? Not that you have to tell me but... Yeah.” She finished, awkwardly shuffling her feet, trying not to focus on how odd she must have sounded like in that moment.

It does, yes. I quite enjoyed the newer series, especially the run of the 10th Doctor. They can love me all they want, but the mess they make makes me want to kill them sometimes.

10 was my favorite, I'm not sure why I just seemed to like him more. Who hasn't wanted to kill their siblings at some point in their life? I think it's an unwritten rule. You can want to kill your siblings,but as long as you'd kill anyone who tried to hurt them, it balances itself out.

I just love when mine and Sam’s meticulous planning pays off.

You planned it?
