@predominateIy “thanks.” he mutters with a half-hearted smile. it was about all he could muster up at the moment. the news of grace’s death was shocking, definitely. it had left the entire student body out of whack.
after taking a swig from the bottle to wash the medication down, he~
@SACRAZUL “maybe. i really don’t know. time will tell, right?” he shrugs his shoulders while keeping a fixated gaze on the road ahead of him. he didn’t want to weigh in on the matter too much, but there were a few people in their school that he would’ve suspected . . .
@phiIanthropia “grace. . .” brows furrow as he tries to concentrate on the name and place it to a face. his head was 𝒑𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈.
“. . . irvine?” he recalls, trying to think back to the party. did he even see her there? maybe just in passing. . .
@SACRAZUL “alright, maybe that wasn’t funny.” he tries to stifle his laughter with the palm of his hand.
“but you gotta admit, i’m a little bit right. that guy is a 𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒌.”

𝒘𝒆𝒍𝒍, 𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒈𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈.
he was already here, so he might as well make the best of it. bringing the brim of the cup to his lips, he tilts his head back and downs the whole thing.
“time to play catch-up.”

maybe she was right . . . maybe he should just relax a little, “easier said than done.”
he looks down~
