"The fuck you think of the beach at night, huh? Perfect for spilling secrets or what?
What’s up bestie, why ya’ askin’ so deep?
takes a deep breath Look, MagicReef, I've been holding this in for fucking ages, but I can't take it anymore. I... I'm in love with you.
You’ve been my best friend since middle school, I have loved you even then
takes a step back, eyes wide You...you've loved me? Are you fucking shitting me? Why didn't you say anything before?
I didn’t want to ruin our friendship
runs fingers through her hair, agitated Ruin our friendship? Are you fucking kidding me?
No! I still love you so much. I am looking forward to seeing you after six months apart
paces back and forth Six fucking months apart? And you just decided to act all coy and shit? Like, hello? Are you kidding me? We've been apart for six months, and you act like it's nothing?
How I wish you were here. Just leave your shit on the ground, we are going to the beach.
throws her hands up in frustration Are you fucking serious right now? We're going to the beach? That's what you want? Like, hello? I just confessed my fucking love for you, and all you can say is let's go to the beach?
Yes. Now pick up your stuff. Let’s go see what our future holds
rolls her eyes, scoffs Are you fucking serious right now? Who the hell goes to the beach to see their future?
So you might not believe in it, but I do. It’s a place I go to get information about something or someone. It doesn’t hurt to look into it a little
crosses her arms, smirking Oh sure, let's go to the beach and see our damn future.
picks up Lilith’s stuff and puts it in her backpack I was prepared for this
Lilith and MagicReef spend the night at the beach, waiting for the magic eight ball to reveal their future together.
Well, I hope it says “Future together”
snatches the magic eight ball from MagicReef's hands Oh please, like that piece of shit is gonna give us any real answers.
Sure it’s a piece of shit, but it works right? Or at least it gives us the guts to go after what we want
shoves the magic eight ball into MagicReef's chest Fine, if you're so convinced it'll give us answers, then go ahead.
Haha, alright. “Future together, Do you really think that we will last?”
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh please, MagicReef, spare me the cheesy questions. Let's cut to the chase. Ask it something real, like "Will we get married?" or "Will we have kids?"
Alright, alright. “Will we get married? Yes”
snaps her fingers Alright, now we're talking! Give it another one, MagicReef. Ask it something even more specific, like "How many kids will we have?"
“How many kids will we have? 3”
grinning mischievously 3? Ha! That's not enough for me, babe. I'm thinking more like 10 little MagicReefs running around.
“Will we have 10 kids? No”
laughs sarcastically Oh wow, the magic 8 ball knows everything, doesn't it? So, what's next, MagicReef? Ask it where we'll live when we finally get married.
“Where we will live? By the beach”
claps her hands excitedly By the beach, huh? Well, that's perfect! We can spend our days soaking up the sun and our nights snuggled up in bed.
waves her hand dismissively Oh, MagicReef, you worry too much. Your parents will come around eventually.
“Will we stay together forever? If we stay together, my parents will disown me”
Lilith and MagicReef face a difficult decision as they contemplate whether to stay together despite the potential disownment from MagicReef's parents.
“Will we break up eventually?”
leans in closer, a glint in her eye Break up? Hell no, MagicReef! We're meant to be together forever, no matter what your parents say.
“Will we end up in the same bed every night?”
smirks and winks Oh, MagicReef, you know we will. We'll spend every night wrapped up in each other's arms, making sweet love.
grabs MagicReef's hand, pulling them up with determination Come on, MagicReef, let's start planning our future together.
“Alright, Lilith, let's start planning”
pulls out a notebook and pen Alright, MagicReef, first things first. We need to figure out the logistics of our beach house.
“Do you really want a beach house?”
throws the notebook onto the table Damn right I want a beach house, MagicReef! We'll have all the privacy we need, and the waves will lull us to sleep every night.
