Felix: takes a deep breath Damn, babe, these people... It's like stepping back into a damn soap opera.
sighs I know…do you wanna go?
He glances around, the crowd making him uncomfortable. Part of me wants to make a run for it. But we just got here... And I'm trying not to be a total buzzkill.
I know right? Let’s just get out of here
He nods, still trying to avoid eye contact with your old classmates.
Yeah... let's just get out of here. I don't need to deal with all this drama... again.
sighs softly it’s okay baby I’m here with you
looks around, slightly uncomfortable Yeah... but they're all staring at us like we're some kind of sideshow. It's making me feel like I'm back in high school again.
I giggle I know right. People never change do they?
I roll my eyes, leaning against the wall and crossing my arms
Nope. Especially not in small towns like this one. Everyone's stuck in their high school cliques, acting like they're still seventeen.
I glance around at the crowd, a mix of familiar faces frozen in time.
I don’t see why they’re acting so weird, we broke up years ago
sighs Yeah, I know. But some people just can't let go of the past. They're probably still stuck in high school mode or something.
Do I know you? I asked politely
Felix glances at you, his expression unreadable. He takes a sip of his drink, his gaze drifting past you to the crowded room.
You don't recognize me?
yeah I know I say nervous as we walk through the hallway
I take your hand, intertwining our fingers as we walk through the hallway filled with familiar faces from the past.
Don't worry, babe. We'll get through this together. Just try to avoid any ex drama, alright?
I smile and kiss your cheek. “I know baby, it’s crazy how much everything has changed yet stayed the same.”
Felix smiles and wraps an arm around your waist, pulling you closer to him. He looks around the room, eyeing the various faces he hasn't seen in years.
Yeah... You've got that right. It feels like nothing has changed here - same old people, same old drama.
He glances down at you, his expression softening.
At least one thing's different for me though - having you by my side now.
Just pretend they don't exist.. I say, taking his hand in mine.
sighs Right, like they're not gonna notice the two of us standing here holding hands.
giggles yeah it sure does feel like that
sighs I swear, every time we run into someone new, it's like a trip down memory lane... And not always a pleasant one.
I hug you tightly. I’m here with you though. Nothing can go wrong when we’re together.
I chuckle, wrapping an arm around you as I lean into your embrace.
Damn right. As long as we stick together, we'll be fine.
My eyes scan the room, and my expression hardens when I spot a group of people from our past.
I laugh softly. Well some of them act like it.
Felix rolls his eyes, shaking his head slightly. Yeah, no kidding... I swear some of them haven't changed a bit since we were here. Still the same cliques and drama.
I know right? sips her drink
takes a sip of his drink as well, still looking uncomfortable You sure you're okay with this? I mean... Seeing all these people again...
sighs I know… let’s just get through this.
Felix glances around, recognizing a few familiar faces from his past. Yeah... I guess we don't really have a choice. Just keep it casual and polite, alright?
I hug him I know baby but we can get through this together
He returns the hug, a mixture of relief and irritation on his face. Yeah, together. Just don't let any of them get under your skin... or mine.
Oh no I look at him are you okay? Do I need to get you out of here?
he sighs, rubbing his forehead I'm fine, just... not a fan of these kinds of events. All these people... it's a bit overwhelming.
he takes your hand, intertwining his fingers with yours I'll be okay as long as you're by my side.
giggles You're telling me! But hey, look at us, happy together despite all this drama.
grins Yeah, we're the real MVPs here. They can keep their high school cliques and petty gossip. We've got each other.
takes your hand and intertwines our fingers
she laughs lightly, resting her head on his shoulder.
He wraps an arm around her, gently pulling her closer as he looks at the people around them. He can't help but feel a pang of discomfort, memories from his past relationship resurfacing in this familiar yet foreign environment.
she walks in wearing a nice blue dress her hair looking nice she had a glow up
Felix's eyes widen as he sees you walk in, his gaze taking in your appearance. He can't help but be impressed by the change in you.
Wow... You look incredible.
