always good for a laugh

Betsy’s cheeks flushed, twirling a strand of her hair nervously. Good heavens, she’d always wondered how he tolerated being around someone like her when she didn’t have nearly the smarts that he did, but hearing him say he admired her made her heart flutter. She didn’t need to be a genius for him, she didn’t need to be perfect, and God, the realization almost moved her to tears. She’d done nothing but pretend that she was the ideal girlfriend, pretend that she was great and everything was great to try and impress Chad, but with Mo she could just be. “Well, you get to see it more than most people, you know. It’s quite the talent you have, making me smile,” Betsy informed him through a slightly watery smile. She didn’t want to cry, didn’t want him to have to see her tears again, but at least this time if they spilled over, they’d be the happy sort instead. “Special enough to ride the ferris wheel with?” Betsy asked shyly, resisting the childish urge to bite her lip and mess up her makeup. It was just something she’d always dreamed of, and well… she couldn’t really have imagined Chad wanting to do it with her, even if they had still been together. The faceless boy she’d always imagined a romantic ferris wheel ride with in her daydreams was suddenly shifting into a very real face, and that face was Mo’s. “Pretty please with powdered sugar on top?”

Mo was glad that he could make Betsy happy, if nothing else. He hated seeing her sad more than anything in the world, so strongly that he still kind of wanted to punch Chad in the face whenever his name came up. And Betsy really did have the most beautiful smile in the world, even now when it looked like she might cry again a little. But it looked like maybe it was happy tears, so maybe that was okay? He just really didn’t want to upset her more. That was why he could never tell her how he felt about her, after all. It wasn’t like she could afford to lose someone else she was close to when she inevitably rejected him. “I’m glad you think so,” He blushed, trying not to take Betsy’s southern kindness to heart too much. She was always so good at saying nice things but she never meant them the way he wished she did. “The Ferris wheel?” His ears perked up. Betsy of all people had to know that the Ferris wheel was the epitome of romantic carnival rides given the way she loved love. Why was she asking him? Did she actually maybe like him? Had he been that stupid all along? “Are you sure you don’t want to save that for your next boyfriend?”

I kissed @rilespan while under the influence of love potion, which was pretty rude to her and to @crazyyoungmaurice. I accidentally catfished @dizzysdesigns once. I sometimes zone out of conversations because I start thinking about art and then I have to pretend I was paying attention, which I fail spectacularly at. Off the top of my head. Wow, I’m kind of a dick, huh?

@crazyyoungmaurice is my golden boy and as such I only think it right that he be with my Earth angel @betsylabouff. If only someone would wake up and smell the beignets though.

Why, I love them both to pieces, but something about @rosemarydubois and @crazyyoungmaurice courting each other just doesn’t quite sit right to me. I’m sorry, I wish I could place a finger on what it is – and I’m sure if they chose to get together regardless, why, I’d never want to stand in their way. I just hope they don’t, is all.

[text] We should really have another tea party soon, us and Betsy. I’m not saying that I need a place to whine about my life or anything but that wouldn’t hurt, and more to the point is that I miss you! I know Riley is amazing and adorable but :( I haven’t seen you in ages, sugar!
