the  scrolling  came  to  a  sudden  stop  though  and  lyla  interrupted  the  conversation  between  the  cousins  with  a  gasp,  the  brunette  twisting  where  she  sat  and  bringing  herself  face  to  face  with  both  of  them,  clutching  her  phone  as  if  it  were  something  valuable.  well,  it  was...  but  you  get  the  idea.   ‘  dude!  mikey  text  me.  ’    more  and  more  lately,  lyla  and  sean  were  branching  out,  inviting  others  into  their  two  person  friend  group-  and  to  no  one's  surprise,  it  was  lyla's  idea  originally  -and  the  first  to  grasp  the  hand  they  extended  out  were  steph  and  mikey,  who  they  often  played  dnd  with.    ‘  ...he  got  a  text  from  steph,  who  was  at  some  restaurant  and  apparently,  nathan  stormed  in  and  next  thing  everyone  knows,  some  waiter  is  on  the  ground.  steph  sent  pics  too  and  mikey  sent  them  to  me.  ’

☆ ───── kiss me. an assortment of kissing dialogue. | a kiss shared against a tree asked by @amesstms for troy & juniper

Rough hands grasped either side of her face, thumbs brushing against sunkissed cheeks and his lips quick to follow as they sweetly and lovingly pressed up against her own mouth. She could taste the sweat of his skin as she kissed him back, her boots shuffling against the leaves beneath her feet as he walked her backward until her back hit the tree behind her.

“ Damn, Sidney Bean... Is that why you didn't haul ass in the other direction when I let you in on my little secret - ? You hope one day I'll make a meal out of you too? ”

‘ You don't know that - and that's precisely why I'm not setting foot in a graveyard. Well, that, and because I'm in shoes that aren't meant for a graveyard because you didn't tell me we were going to-... Wait, what are we doing? Don't tell me we're graverobbing. We're friends and all but there are some things I won't do, even for you and graverobbing is one of them. ’

☆ ───── QUESTION PROMPTS. | “ you were going to leave without saying goodbye? ” — from ellie williams asked by @amesstms / @goldnsnds

Juniper didn't want to leave and that was the problem. She felt like she had finally carved out a place for herself, belonging somewhere with people she thought were unlikely to want her among them. Not because there was anything bad about her, but because Ellie and Joel were such a strong duo, an inner circle that was hard to fit into. It reminded her a lot of the dynamic she shared with her own dad. But she had to go. For now, at least, hoping that whatever happened in the end, there was a sliver of chance that she could return to the family she had made for herself.

‘  we  aren't  friends,  ’    as  many  times  as  she  insisted  on  that  though,  it  was  clear  that  they  were,  and  as  much  as  she  tried,  riley  matthews  wasn't  and  had  never  been  a  good  liar.    ‘  ...okay,  we  are  friends,  and  as  his  friend,  i  can  tell  you  that  he's  not  dangerous.  ’    she  insisted  on  that  though  because  rafe  cameron  showed  her  kindness,  he  showed  her  a  side  of  himself  that  the  pogues  had  never  seen  and  would  never  see  as  long  as  the  tension  was  still  there,  and  because  she  wasn't  there  when  he  was  the  opposite  of  the  rafe  cameron  she  knew. ‘  he's  alone,  pope.  sarah...  she  has  you,  and  she  has  kiara,  and  she  has  jj  and  john  b,  she  even  has  maya  and  i,  but  rafe?  rafe  has  no  one.  he's  alone,  in  an  extravagent  house,  surrounded  by  extravagent  things,  but  none  of  it  is  the same as having  someone  on  your  side.  a  friend,  which...  i'm  trying  to  be  to  him.  if  you  got  to  know  him,  if  any  of  you  got  to  know  him,  you  would  know  that  he's  only  dangerous...  because  he  hasn't  been  shown  kindness  and  he  doesn't  have  the  support  you  all  do.  i'm  not  trying  to  'fix  him'  or  anything,  but  i  do  see  something  in  him,  goodness  and  potential,  the  way  that  i  see  it  in  you  guys  and  i'm  trying  to  get  him  to  see  it  too.  ’
