a late night banter

“you’re so damn talented at annoying the shit out of me,” she rolled her eyes and stomped her foot irritably. fucking cute, he thought.

he gave her a long look, then smiled, his dimples that she secretly adored made an appearance.

“i’m sorry. come on, please?” he pleaded as he pinched her rosy cheeks, slowly lifting them up to form her lips into a smile.

“apology noted; acceptance…pending.”

 “pending? really now?” he asked in disbelief.

really,” she replied, dragging out the last syllable.

“how mature of you ella. you’re what? 16 years old?”

excuzes-moi you fucker, i’ll be 18 in five days, thank you very much.”

“see? almost 18 years of existence. sweetheart, act your age please.”

“well i’m a child at heart okay?” she smiled sheepishly and averted her gaze, looked down at her worn out converse, cheeks turning a shade darker.

he shook his head and laughed. “oh ella…what will i do without you? you’ve put up with me or 12 years now. you’re honestly the best best friend i could ask for.”

“oh eli,” she fired back, mocking his tone earlier. “let’s never find out yeah? i plan on keeping you forever mister.” she took a deep breath then started again, “you know what though? i actually have zero clue, like nada, of how we met. that’s funny eh?” she stood on her tippy toes, ruffled his hair, and waited for his reaction.

“i hate you so much. how many times do i have to tell you, anything but the hair. geez dude,” he complained, trying to suppress a smile.

“i love you too elijah. now please give me a piggy back ride back to the guest house. i think this night breeze froze my legs off. help out a person in need, won’t you?”

as he bent down, his heart and soul whispered to the wind, i love you, more than a best friend, i really do and i hope this reaches you.

as she jumped on his back, her heart and soul whispered to the wind, i love you, more than a best friend, i really do and i hope this reaches you.

_______________________________________________________________________________________ this was a cheesy ass thingy? i actually don’t think it even counts as a story. i guess you could pretend this is an excerpt from a book i’ve written lmao. i came up with this at like 11 at night after talking to my friend and listening to lo-fi hip hop. i got a few inspirations from various sickly sweet fan fictions i’ve read back in ’11, some cute movies about the awkwardly bittersweet teenage phase and a couple from an anime called “your lie in april” which actually made me bawl my eyes out but 10/10 would recommend. i hope someone other than my friend reads this. plez, whoever you are, if you happen to come across this, plez read and also like if ye wanttt. thanks, much love. i’m going to shower now. ciao bitchessss
