life's better on saturn 🪐

• when you first meet, you don't think much of Isaac

• you are of the opinion that he's arrogant af and extremely entitled

• he's the popular guy and you're just chilling with your small friend group, away from all the high school drama

• it's only when you're paired as lab partners in chemistry and have to sit next to each other that you're forced to talk more (forced proximity y'all 😌😌)

• you bicker for a few weeks, exchanging snarky comments

you: "you really have no idea what the periodic table is? fucking stupid ass himbo"

Isaac: "oh so you're saying I'm good looking? can't even insult me properly huh?"

you: "oh stfu"

• it's only until both of you burst out laughing at some stupid video the teacher showed you in class

• and both of you are looking at each other like ????

• "I didn't know you had a good sense of humor too?"

• then both of you find yourself more often than not laughing at the same things

• you start making jokes to each other in classes, still bickering with each other but the bickering turning more into play fighting??

• also now you don't despise having to work together as lab partners anymore

• sometimes you also purposely sit next to each other in different classes just because it's more fun together

• yet both of you would never admit that

• lots of people from school are surprised about your new acquaintance with Isaac bc what is this popular guy doing with this outsider girl?

• but Isaac doesn't care about what other people think bc you're actually really chill and fun to be around

• one day, Isaac decides he's sick of conversing with his admirers and finds that your bickering with him is far more interesting and also more intellectually stimulating (yes 😂) than just having a bunch of girls stare at him with heart eyes swooning over him and just nodding at everything he's saying

• so at lunch he goes over to your friend group's table (actually just you and your two friend's table 😌) and asks if he can sit with you

• your two friends are like : 🤨🤨🤨him?

• but you're like: nah nah guys he's cool

• so you guys are just chilling together for lunch and he realizes what he's been missing out on!!

• he actually gets along with you and your friends so well bc y'all are also fashion mfs like him and not football ppl like his other friends lmao (tho he mostly hangs out with his cousins)

• after lunch he asks you if you want to hang out after school sometime and chill just the two of you, which surprises you but ofc you say yes

• on your first hangout you go to get matcha 🍵 and talk about art (I could imagine that also being one of Isaac's interests) and fashion, also like your fav brands and stuff and how both of you want to model/design/study fashion etc. in your future

• you also deep talk about his dad a lil and how Isaac mostly grew up at the Walter's house bc his dad is in the army

• your hangouts get more frequent and soon you realize it's more than friendship for both of you and that you actually are like in love with each other

• both of you used to always chat during class and laugh together which you still do but now it's just with a little bit of tension and awkwardness bc you're now crushing on each other

"hahaha...yeah that was um... really funny😅haha"

• and somehow Isaac can't flirt with you like he does with other girls bc with the other girls it was never genuine, he didn't really care about them but with you it's like...

• he really likes you and he doesn't wanna f it up

• I think he would get a lil more touchy tho as he realizes he likes u

• for example: you're out at the cinema watching an indie movie together and he puts an arm around you

• you're like: you've never done that before 🤨🤨🤨

• but then you have to hide your blush bc omg!! 😳 he just put his arm around you

• I feel like Isaac is a scaredy cat so he tells you he loves you over text 😭

• he doesn't even tell you he likes you first, bro just goes all out with the L word

• you've just woken up, it's like 6am on a Sunday and you see a text from Isaac from like an hour ago 💀💀

• "I think I'm in love with you lmao"

• and you immediately call him bc wtf???

• you ask him: "is this one of your jokes?" bc ain't no way are you gonna confess too only to be told it's a prank

• "no, no... it's true"

• "and you decided to tell me this over text?? literally wtf Isaac"

• then you're silent for a while and just say "I can't believe I'm about to say this on the phone but...I feel the same"

• then you meet up that same day and the second you meet you're literally laughing saying: "literally wtf Isaac"

• "sorry I, uh.. didn't know how else to say it..", he says awkwardly, looking away bc he's blushingg

• "well, it's fine because.. I love you too"

• Isaac literally perks up even though you've already said you feel the same, it's different hearing you say it in front of him

• then you guys have your first kiss which is literally life changing for Isaac because so far he's only ever kissed girls like for fun and not because he's fallen for them

• so this is a very new experience for Isaac

• you show up as a couple at school the next day and walk the hallways holding hands 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼

• everybody is confused and asks Isaac: "really? her?"

• he answers: "yeah, why? she's cool af?? and I'm literally in love with her??!!"

• so let's talk about your relationship

• you both match fits often and are basically the most stylish couple at school

• you also go thrifting together!

• you guys have a very strong emotional bond and talk about anything and everything literally

• you're his rock and his best friend, he tells you everything

• and by that I mean literally everything

• he also tells you about every prank he plans / has done and he also tells you about the putting bleach in Jackie's shampoo bottle prank

• which you immediately scold him for bc why is he putting that poor girl through this when she's literally still adjusting to the new life in the Walter's house after having to leave her home because her parents died?

• at school you go to Jackie to apologize for Isaac's behavior and offer to help with her hair, which she gladly accepts

• this leads to you and Jackie becoming best friends and to her joining your little friend group with your 2 friends

• (you guys are a better influence on her than Skylar and Grace)

• you also get invited to Walter family events, for example Will's wedding or Thanksgiving

• you can be a bit shy so you always cling to Isaac and Jackie whenever you're there

• But Katherine makes you warm up quickly with her good-hearted nature and you find yourself feeling comfortable in the Walter's home pretty soon

• you get along with Lee pretty well and you just fit in perfectly with the whole bunch

You were sitting on one of the docks at the riverside, your legs dangling off the wooden pier. You had already spent half an hour waiting for your date, as you had agreed to meet up at your dad's boat to take it for a little spin and maybe picnic at the beach later. So far she hadn't shown up yet and you hadn't received a message from her in which she might've told you she would run late. You were slowly growing impatient, fiddling with the little strawberry charm on your necklace. It was a warm day, without a single cloud in sight and only a small breeze, which made you shiver every now and then. You picked up your phone and tried calling her. After a few rings, you heard a nervous voice answer.

“Hey y/n…”

“Hey Kie! Where are you, babes? I’m waiting for you at the docks!”, you asked, trying to sound cheerful but also being worried, wondering why she wasn't here with you yet.

“Yeah, I know, I’m really really sorry. I swear I don’t mean to be late on our first date it’s just…”, she trailed off, stopping mid-sentence. You noticed that her voice seemed slightly panicked, a little breathless.

“Kie, are you okay?”, you inquire, really worried now. You thought about what you might’ve done wrong or what might’ve happened to make her this anxious. You remembered she had already been pretty nervous when you had asked her out for the first time, but not like this. You heard her sigh.

“Look, I’ll be honest with you, I um… I kind of panicked getting ready because I wanted this date to go well and I was overthinking like what if I’m gonna say something wrong or the date is going to go horrible and I just didn't want to lose you because you're so important to me y/n and-”

At this point she was just nervously rambling, which you weren't having. You didn't want her to be anxious about your date, you wanted the two of you to have fun! So you cut her off.

“Kie, I promise you, you're not going to lose me. I don't want our first date to be something you’re anxious about. I just want us to have fun and see where this whole thing goes!”

Kiara had gone silent on the other line.

“And if this doesn't work out romantically with us, then we’ll still be friends! I really like you, Kie and want to get to know you more.”

She sighed.

“Yeah, you’re right. You're totally right. Sorry for freaking out. I just really like you, y/n”, she said. You could tell your little talk had calmed her down and you really hoped she was still coming.

“Are you still coming? If you want to, I can give you a hug when you get here…”, you offered, wanting to give her some comfort.

“Of course I’m still coming! Wouldn't want to miss one of your hugs for the world.” Both of you were laughing now. Though you couldn't see Kiara, you knew she had lightened up and her anxiousness had faded.

“See you soon, Kie.”
