theodora is very grateful she wasn’t asked to work this party. partially because she was now able to participate in it, but also because it seemed like a NIGHTMARE of an event to bartend. it gave her the freedom to be social, but someone standing beside her was making that quite difficult. “am i your caretaker for the night, or what? usually you ditch me the second we get to a party. what, was emilia busy or something and couldn’t make it?”

“uh ... excuse me?” florencia is quiet. far too SHY to be asking a random person at the blockbuster for help. “are you, um, are you a horror fan by any chance? my brother... he, uh, he asked me to find him a good scary movie and i just, um, don’t know where to start.”

       he  looks  good  ,   she  won’t  deny  that  ,   and  there’s  a  tiny  part  of  her  that  whispers :   this is what you always wanted  .   a  family  ,   the  girls  to  have  a  mom  and  a  dad  that  got  along  ;   but  ,   she’s  smarter  than  that  ,   smarter  than  to  trust  matty  right  away  .   instead  she’ll  shake  her  head  ,   offer  a  small  smile  ,   something  of  a  truce  .    ‘  so  -  i  hope  i’m  not  underdressed  for  this  dinner  you  have  planned  .  ’  

       (  @mattysfm​  !  )    chuckle  leaves  their  lips  as  they  finish  their  glass  of  wine  ,   shaking  their  head  at  him  .    ‘  i  can’t  believe  you  did  that  .   i  can’t  believe  i’m  best friends  with  someone  this  messy  .   seriously  ,   who  HURT  you  ,   matty ?  ’
