Who: Molly Barnes and Lance What: Making Plans When: Thursday Where: Madison Valley Creamery Warnings: TBD Status: Closed/On-going
Molly might not be the most organized kid around, and there might be a lot of distractions with things at home being so weird and so tense even though everyone was obviously trying to pretend otherwise, but there were some things she couldn’t just let sneak up on her. And one of them was her boyfriend’s birthday. She’d definitely set a reminder in her phone about it the second she’d found out when it was and it was just a few days away and honestly she needed to be away from the house anyway so what better time to drag him out and make some plans or something.
Better that than hang around with nothing to do but play fetch with the dog or stare at the TV or lie out in the backyard and pretend like things didn't feel weird at home. They felt super weird. She didn't say to anyone that she felt it but it was really hard to miss that something was wrong and it was definitely getting to a point where she was going to have to start asking questions or something. Not today, though. Today she was focused on Lance and on happier things.
She’d announced she wanted ice cream the second they’d met up, took his hand and dragged him right to get some. It was summer, it was hot, ice cream was the right answer.
After finding a seat by the window, she made sure to sit shoulder to shoulder so she could lean on him a little, take his hand. “So are we going to have a party this weekend or what?”
