trigger warning: mention of bullying

kalani had been busy as ever trying to contain her work load to a minimum. scrolling through her emails, she received a message from her pr manager reminding her about upcoming events. glancing up, she nibbles on her bottom lip, “hey, so i got invited to new york fashion week and i have a few spare tickets if you’d like to go?” she offers, sending the other a soft smile as she pulls out the envelopes from her bag. 

chad smiles over towards the other, “see, i’m glad someone has an understanding on what i mean… there’s only a few children that i can tolerate.” he mentions while chuckling. smirking deviously, he shakes his head, “oh, but you being part of it will also be my way in!” he exclaims laughing as well. “you know what? i think that’s a pretty cool idea… got my wheels spinning and shit.” chad mentions, pointing to his head while laughing even more. “i’m sure you’re plenty of great.” 

chad licks his lips as he nods his head, “i swear i can’t hear my own thoughts sometimes over kids screaming,” he shakes his head at the thought as he inhales the cool atmosphere, feeling a sense of calmness rush through his body. he rises a brow, a smirk appearing across his lips. “mm, i might be able to pull some strings and get me on that set.” a round of laughter falls from his lips as he nods his head, “exactly! i should make that my gig, appearing in random movies and shows as a weird background character.” he couldn’t help, but laugh even more at the thought. “i’m sure that you’re doing fine, i mean logan hasn’t fired you yet, right? so that’s a good start.” 

“yeah, i headed out a bit early today, it was slow enough and lina was good with closing up. i’m glad i was here too.” she told the other with a smile. “right? i think mother nature is a little confused on what season it’s supposed to be.” lennon closed the door behind him and gestured him toward the living room.

he smiled softly as she explained her day to him nodding his head when he needed to, “well i’m certainly glad it was slow enough for you come home.” he said as he walked into her living room moving to sit on the couch before setting the gift bag and wrapped picture at his feet. chuckling he gave a nod looking at her, “i really think it is, i mean i can adapt to any of the seasons but i’d like to know what we’re officially setting on.” he laughed.

“it’s way better when you can actually hear your thoughts.” he hums, not sure if he was making any sense, however, he lets out a chuckle before shaking his head, blowing out a breath as he glances back over towards anthony. “really now? you think they’ll let me be a background character?” he smirks at the thought, eyebrow still rose. “i think i’ll be that one actor in the back where people pause and is like find him.” chad laughs at the thought before licking his lips, “what’s there to be nervous about?” 

chad’s gaze follows the horizon before falling back over towards anthony with a smile, “yeah, it’s a good place for it. plus, the beach is always so calming, especially around this time of year when there aren’t hundreds of people running around.” he might not seem much like a beach person, but he actually loved it. “the actor trying to run away from his first gig?” he quirks a teasing brow, while smirking ever so slightly. “well, shit i expect nothing less with how professional you are. can’t wait to see the movie.” 

serenity makes a face as she tilts her head to the side, “almost like none…” she trails off before laughing. “i feel like that’s a complete lie… but i’m take it.” the female jokes with him as she playfully wipes a happy tear from her cheek, a goofy smile spread across her lips. “i sure hope you can deal with me when i put up a fight with drinking water,” serenity mentions while she laughs, hearing that she did that plenty of times when she wasn’t in the right mindset. “hey, you totally should though! there’s a first for everything and i’ll gladly take care of you.” she informs giving him a look with her brow rose. as she took her first bite, bliss filled within her as she looks up at him, “speaking of being boyfriend material… are you and len good?” she inquires giving him a knowing smirk. 

“now normally i’m not, but saw that the beach was clear and nobody was here so it was the perfect thing to do before i went back to my apartment for breakfast.” he admits, there was something so calming about being near the ocean as the cold breeze blew by. “trying to remember lines and all that shit?” he teases the other, smiling ever so slightly, “how’s it going by the way?” 

“oh, no, it’s no problem at all, stop by whenever you like. although you’re lucky you caught me, you can find me more often at the shop than here.” lennon rambled, nervous for whatever was going to happen today. “that’s a new one.” she chuckled before pushing the door open further and stepping to the side. “come in, come in, it’s freezing out there today.”

“i knew i had a fifty fifty chance of you being here so i did get hopeful.” he said honestly looking from the things he was holding to the girl standing across from him, “i’m glad you were here.” he added then this nose scrunched up nodding, “its new and it sounded weird.” he laughed lightly nodding again before entering her place, “i don’t think the weather knows what its doing if i’m being honest. one day its warm the next its freezing.”

over the last few days, lennon had been going over and over in her head all of the things she wanted to say to anthony. she knew his first day on set wasn’t the right time but these things needed to be said so they could both move forward. “coming!” she yelled when she heard a knock at the door. lennon quickly made her way down the stairs and pulled open the door to see the one person she did not expect. “anthony, hey. what are you doing here?” she asked with a smile.

the few seconds after he knocked it was silent and he thought maybe this was a bad idea but then he heard her voice on the other end and he took a deep breath his hands clutching onto the gifts in hand. smiling when she opened the door though he felt a bit panicked and had to clear his throat before he spoke, “hi sorry for coming by unannounced.” he said letting out a breath before holding up the gifts he had, “i come bringing christmas in february?” he answered though it came out as more of a question.

“i’ll keep that in mind when you abandon me for all those fancy parties you’ll be invited to.” serenity mumbles out with a shrug of her shoulders, “if you’re looking for a pr manager when you blow up, let me know.” she teases sending him a wink. “i trust that you’ll keep me at a good pace and if you decide to get fucked up i’ll be responsible and ensure we get home safely.” she commented, a small smile appearing because that’s who she was, she take care of people that she cares for. at the plate, she was practically drooling, “definitely is a big deal, you’re cooking for me! definitely perfect boyfriend material right there.” 

it been a while since chad see anthony around or it could be the fact that he was wrapped up in his own bubble, going to night clubs djing and then heading home and going to bed. it was a routine of his and sleeping most of the day did cut his human interactions. he was on the beach, clearing his head as well. thinking about his mom in particular when he spotted the other. moving over towards him, he rising a brow. “why do people assume that i’m not a beach person or something?” he jokes before shrugging his shoulders, “i had last night off and was actually able to fall asleep at a decent hour, hints to why i’m actually up around this time, but why are you on the beach? it’s freezing.” 

ivy couldn’t wipe the smile off her face. “thank you. it feels so surreal. i can’t believe it” the girl said looking at the other. “i second that. but i am super excited to tell ana about it. she will be just as excited” ivy said.

serenity was grateful, in gratitude to him and all that he does her for. he was truly one of a kind type of special. “we need to get you out more anyways before you get too famous to hang out with me.” she teases him, taking hold of the glass of water and drowning the rest of it like she haven’t had water in forever. taking hold of the frozen veggies he handed over towards her, she places the cold package on her head, instantly hit with chills that went down her spine. “i owe you big time!” the smell of the breakfast food was already making her feel better as she tries to control the spinning room that was happening inside her head.
