BELL SAID: want to go somewhere quiet ? / [ ACCEPTING. ] @mermade
❛ um , do you think we could ? i don’t know why they had to play this song , ❜ it’s a very unique kind of grief she finds herself wading through. as sunset curve’s LATE LAST NIGHT blares from the house party’s speakers, aimee barely notices her drink sloshing in shaking hands before bell takes her arm and says something. aimee clings to her because she understands ; because she’s the only other person in here that could. the boys ( sans bobby, ) have been gone for a few months now, but . . . it’s not like she prepared for this when she came out to try and dance the hurt of it all away. if anything, she wishes this drink was a tad stronger. or that she was at home, curled up on the couch with a box of twinkies. it was still healthy to grieve real hard once and awhile, right ?
aimee leaves her cup on a corner table, not intending to come back for it, and walks along with bell. everything’ll be fine in a few minutes, she tells herself, nuzzling her cheek against bell’s shoulder. tears begin to prick at her when the song’s backing vocals jump in, and that’s when aimee picks up the pace to drag them into a random bedroom and shut the door tight.
the song is muffled through the other end. most things are, until she lowers her free hand from her ear.
❛ — well . . . seems like our luck, huh ? ‘least that means they got a demo track sold . . . ❜ the victory, if you can call it that, is so hollow. aimee finds that after that, she doesn’t quite know what to say. her arms cross, her head tilts back, and she stairs at the ceiling ; she waits. ❛ i forget. is this one of the long ones or one of the short ones ? ❜
