a story i never finished (and never will);
⥠when she introduces you to her friends âĄ
"i'm so excited to have you meet sophie and reina today ashton! oh they're gonna love you so much and it'll just be all cool because you'll all he friends and we can all be happy together but not have a foursome because that's just weird and you're mine and only mine and i will never share my baby." blossom said cheerfully as she started pulling her boyfriend's arm to get him out of their shared apartment. they've been dating for about three years now, so them sharing a house shouldn't be much of a surprise at this point. if so, it's 2018, get used to it.
it was eight in the morning in the oh-so wonderful city of new york. the streets were slowly crowding with people going to work at this time and it was an awful pain walking due to the whole mess. it would be easier to get a car but you have to study and everything and that is just way too much of a struggle for a piece of plastic and a vehicle you have to pay for monthly. the pair had decided to meet their friends at a mcdonald's near their house because 1) they weren't gonna meet friends all sweaty and disgusting and 2) it's fucking mcdonald's. and in about ten minutes they should get there; at least that's what blossom texted reina, who was boredly scrolling through her phone next to sophie in a booth already eating chicken nuggets.
"they're supposedly gonna be here in ten minutes. but since they're soooo in love they might take their time walking to giggle and do that stupid 'i love you more, no i love you more!' type of thing before they get here so i say they'll be here in twenty." reina said in a bit of an annoyed tone, rolling her eyes at the message and quickly typing an 'ok' to her always fashionably late bestie. blossom was always late, ever since the two met! high school graduation? as soon as blossom's name was called she busted into the auditorium yelling 'i'm here! i'm here!' pulling her cap and gown on and practically tripping over the steps to get her diploma. but hey, that's her best friend and she loves her.
to be honest, reina wasn't really excited to see blossy's boy toy. she didn't really care about who her girl dated unless they break her heart. in that case she isn't afraid of going to prison for murder. she was NOT gonna let any boy play with her feelings like that. not her baby. not her. so during this "meeting" she's gonna act like a father meeting their daughter's boyfriend.
"hey! don't be so pessimistic about things, rei! oh hey that rhymed! 'rei' and 'hey'!" sophie started giggling like such a lunatic, everyone in the restaurant started staring at the two. "soph! shut up these people are looking!" reina said a bit harshly. sophie immediately silenced.
sophie has always been the optimist of the little friend triangle. she was always cracking jokes, being all random, acting like her looney self. some have even called her crazy! but it doesn't matter, 'cause she calls herself crazy too. and she is, her parents just haven't showed her the papers yet. she was just thrilled to meet the 'ashton' she has so frequently heard about. rei and her have heard about that boy so much, rei was getting sick of it. sophie? eh, it was never really obvious but probably not. not sure how though. blossom talked so much about him that reina had to cover her mouth just to get her to stop. their love was almost sickening. but hey that's love for you.
it was 8:15 they've been here since 7:50. "i swear if blossom and her boy toy don't come in fifteen minutes i'm gonna just get up and lea-" reina couldn't finish as she looked up to see who just entered the fast food place. speak of the devil, it's blossom and her boy. "sophie! rei! sorry i'm a bit late! this dummy over here didn't wanna get out of bed!" she pointed to the boy next to her.
brown hair, green eyes, pale skin. just blossom's type. a few inches taller than her, dressed pretty in a black button up and some jeans. while blossom decided to match with a black crop top and blue shorts (they weren't really jeans). reina rolled her eyes, perfect couple.
sophie got up quickly and ran up to the boy, rei slowly after. she shook his hand and said in a tone sweeter than sugar "hi, my name is sophie! i've heard so much about you, it's a pleasure to finally meet you!" the kind raven haired girl then went up to her friend's shoulder and said "you get a good one blossy, just the type you like! i can tell you and him are meant to be!" blossom blushed and said a small thank you before glancing at reina to see if she was going to introduce herself.
rei was staring the boy down, a cruel glance on her face. the boy may look fine, but she has to make sure that he's the right one for her friend. ashton seemed a bit intimidated, but finding enough courage he held his hand out and said "hey, i'm ashton. you're... reina, right? it's nice to meet you."
the brunette looked at the boy's hand, then glared at him. "yes, i'm reina. nice to see you too." she said in a dark tone. but she then look at blossom and sophie who were staring at her sadly and shook his hand. he smiled and said "how about we all go sit down? if we're gonna get to know each other, it might as well be comfortable." everyone agreed and started heading towards the booth reina and sophie were sitting. while they were getting there, blossom rushed up to ashton and whispered into ashton's ear "don't worry about rei, she's a bit of a tough cookie to crack. but as soon as she sees how good you are she'll loosen up, okay?" he giggled lightly and nodded, "okay."
the small group of four sat down, rei and sophie facing ashton and blossom. there was an awkward silence until sophie decided to break it with her cheery voice. "soooo, how'd you two lovebirds meet?"
