underwhelming
Nick had this hilarious girlfriend named Jane. She was one of the biggest feminist Corrine and Marcy Tills had ever met. They fit in easily in their company and for awhile they stopping needing people. They were at peace for awhile and in each other's company and long night talks, they found what they had needed.
They called themselves The Squad in high school, but they never really wen anywhere far. All they ever did was go get ice cream on fridays (occasionally, sometimes that didn't even happen). But they were still a squad and to them that's all that mattered
frederick played the piano in his death and a song was wrote. his spirit kept playing and everything went together. he dreamed up a world of musical terms and characters seeped out of every crack. he saw every brick in the building and every blade of grass was easily spotted
she said i hate you i hate you i hate you and she said those words over and over and over and over and she was sure she was going to hell for that one time when she flipped someone off in fourth grade.
she told him like she owned the place
"jimmy, i'm going to plant sunflowers here whether you like it or not"
he frowned like he was upset but everyday the sunflowers grew taller and his smile grew with them
some people eat and they don't even know they look like they haven't eaten in a month. god, they look awful. i remember i used to eat like that and then i saw someone eating just like me and now i make eat bite take 10 seconds or more with at least a 5 second interval between bites
jimmy had once told her that he'd carry all the furniture she owned across the street into his house and that theyd raise a baby together and they never spoke a word of it but they knew thats how it would be because elf owls nest in cacti and for as long as elf owls nest in cacti, jimmy will carry her furniture across the street
all i can think of is that stupid perks book and how dumb our conversation are because they always end in you saying forever and me repeating it and i know forever isnt infinity but they sure as hell feel the same and i dont know what to make of that
she wanted to be a farmer when she grew up, she didn't want cows or chickens or anything. she didn't want a a mile of corn field, she just wanted to have a cute little farmhouse and a cat she'd give a saucer of warm milk and she imagined faires would build little houses in her flower beds
i felt like the second most watched person in the world, like everyone was leaning over the railing just to see me. but not in a good way. they wanted to see my toes grow into snails and they wanted me to turn pale enough to become a ghost. they begged for the chance to see my hair become strands from a willow tree and i felt like where my heart should be an owl had nested there
