my sweetest downfall

Orientation week sounds a bit ridiculous. I mean, are we supposed to walk around and hold hands and team build?

I’m not sure. Do you want to hold my hand and team build?

Great. Lets go somewhere, we haven’t done anything fun in a while. Coffee date with me?

Note to all you candle lovers.. Put a vanilla scented tea light in a bowl filled with coffee beans. The warmth from the tea light will heat the coffee beans and have your room smelling like French vanilla coffee. It’s like heaven. 

That sounds pretty good, but how did you even work that out? An experimental “lets throw coffee beans on the candles” moment?

Do you need to vomit yet? I promised I’d hold back your hair, and I won’t break my word.

It’s lovely. She’d love it. 

Thanks… So uh, how’ve you been? Anything interesting happening? Because my life is terribly boring at the moment.

Nope. Starting young, of course.

Why on earth am I only just meeting you now?!

Well, yeah it should be. That’s the way the seasons work.

Maravilhoso, um comediante. Well, just checking, it would be a shame to skip right to fall.

Oh damn, but I was gonna hum the theme song and find an excuse to press you up against a wall and pretend we’re hiding from the enemy. The club is called Vintage on The Rocks, it’s set up like a 1920’s speakeasy.

Shit. Would you look at that, I've gone and lost my ID. 

I’m hoping you were playing for different reasons back when you were six. 

Nope. Starting young, of course.

It's lovely. She'd love it. 

There’s a club just off campus I’ve been dying to check out. Tell me you either have a legit id or a fake one? If not I can probably find you something that’ll get you in.

I have ID, no need for mission impossible to sneak me in. Whats the club? 

Not even for Ella?

I love Ella. I would do anything for Ella. But even if she begged, if she became so deluded to think you've changed, I would have a hard time trying to forget all the shit you've done to her.

I don’t puke, but I accept the sentiment.

You will do when I'm done with you.

Maybe at some point. I mean, it’ll be summer again soon, right?

Well, yeah it should be. That's the way the seasons work.

Why? Is it because I left without a word?

No, no. It's not your fault. You had to go, I understand that.

We’ll definitely have to go shopping before we move because I don’t have nearly enough winter clothes to survive in Scotland. Hmm… we can each have three accessories to enhance the bin bag look. 

That's fine by me! Why does this feel like a game I'd play when I was like six? Dressing up in bin bags? 

Definitely not joking, sadly.

Uh, okay then. Well, each to their own. If you're that distraught about being away from the beach for so long, maybe you should just take a trip or something.
