Page 60 of Yours Until Forever

Marin:

That OG thirst trap of you and Gage? Gone. Poof. Vanished. And the comments are finally vibing. Amelia stans are loud rn.

Me:

Amelia stans?

Marin:

Yuh. As in, the girlies are here for you. Like full ride-or-die status.

Me:

Okay. Great. And when you say thirst trap, do you mean the photo of us?

Marin:

Yep.

Me:

Thanks for getting it pulled.

Marin:

I’d love to say it was me, but I think it was Gage’s main character energy working overtime.

Me:

Right…

Marin:

Anyway, you’re trending chill rn. Don’t do anything chaotic. Talk soon, babes x

I frown,wondering why that account would delete the photo just like that. It doesn’t make sense, but I don’t have time to dwell on it. I’m in the middle of emailing a friend back who reached out about a job he wants me to do. A short indie film with a three-week-turnaround. We’ve worked together before, and I love collaborating with him.

I’m also relieved to know not everyone’s blacklisting me.

Me:

Gage:

I thought we had.

Me:

I’d like to see more prizes.

Gage:

You want a prize for everyone?

Me:
