Okay last one I swear! (I don't have the emoji) But Adriana's attempt plssss
I'm bopping all around your asks doing bits and pieces, ty for being interested <3 this one is on the serious side and if I'm honest, I might not ever finish it because i'm not sure who it's for, but here's one of the few light-hearted parts so far (i did 1800ish words in this doc today and this is the only part i feel okay to share, the rest was all quite morbid 🤣)
“Christopher?” Sophia asks, tense, breathing slowly and deliberately like she’s trying to calm down.
“Yeah,” Eddie says. Then he adds, “And Buck,” because it felt like an omission not to but that just makes Sophia shoots him a long side eye, assessing, and Eddie wishes he hadn’t.
“Buck is the Evan Tia Pepa talks about, yes?” Sophia asks after a long quiet moment. Eyes firmly on the road.
Sophia hums and Eddie wonders how much Pepa talks about Buck that Sophia would know his name well enough to put two and two together.
“He sounds like a good man,” she offers after a few moments. “A good friend?”
Eddie nods, feeling a little like a deer caught in headlights, “Yeah, he is.”
Sophia nods, shooting him another long assessing look before she looks back at the road.
“Pepa thinks you’re living together.”
Eddie nods, “He sublet from me while I was back here for Chris, and he hasn’t managed to find anywhere else to go yet. Everything in his price range has issues.”
Sophia hums again, something hidden just under the tone of it.
