black butterflies & deja vu

lizzie: that is adorable !

lizzie: i myself was hoping for a yacht but no

lizzie: what about you ?

dominic: ahahah maybe next year???

“Okay… fair, but you don’t have to drag me for it!” Avrielle fake pouted, but the smile on her face that overcame that was enough to give her away quickly for not really having her feelings hurt by Dom suggesting that her overzealousness for spoiling herself wasn’t exactly a shocker to him. “I honestly don’t know yet? I kinda wanna have a birthday party with a few of my friends, like a joint birthday party, you know? Some of my friends with siblings did that growing up and they always hated sharing the spotlight but I feel like it’d be so fun!” Her only child syndrome was definitely speaking for itself as she admitted the vague idea she had for how she wanted to spend one of the biggest birthdays of her life. “I’ll let you help me plan if I decide to, for sure.” She added on, running her fingers back through her hair and pushing it away from her face. “I’m glad yours was chill! Mine was… okay. Dunno about everything I dreamed of, parents kinda pissed me off, but what else is new.” She shrugged it off, not wanting to linger too long on the subject of how weird her mom had been toward her during Christmas, and in the weeks before she’d come home to celebrate.

if he seem nervous she felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest. the audible cuss made her giggle at least.  ❛hey❜ she greets him again.  ❛im–im okay, how about yourself? you look great❜ she tried to make the conversation lighter. the last time she had seen him things were clearly different. 

amelia knew if things hadn’t work out it had been her fault, she had let go a beautiful thing but her insecurities floated making her run away the moment she started to feel like things were ‘too serious’. she keeps regretting it.

it shouldn’t surprise dominic that the two have run into each other ( quite literally, might he add ). while new york city is huge, the boy has found in his time living here that it was hard to avoid anyone in this city. sooner or later ( and with dominic’s luck it was sooner ) they were bound to run into each other. better to rip the band-aid off now, right?

lizzie: they say italy is magic

lizzie: i guess they're right

lizzie: what did you get penelope for christmas ?

dominic: lol guess so

vera playfully rolled her eyes at his teasing , as she took another sip from her champagne glass . “ well , that was nice of you to say . but , i tend to impress easily . “ she shrugged , giving him a small smile as a laugh escaped her lips . despite whatever drama was surrounding vera’s life , getting to spend time with dominic was probably the best remedy for her . when she thought of drama , she definitely didn’t think of him & she knew it was about time she surrounded herself with people just like him – it also helped that vera was attracted to him . “ okay , now listen . last time i tried sneaking in – i got caught . so , let’s hope that doesn’t happen this time . “ she responded , grabbing his hand and pulling him off the bed . “ let’s goooo. “ she said , leading the pair out the door and on the way to the pool .
