It’s not that your companionship was anything extraordinary, but there was gleeful memories and conversation and turning around in your seat for the hundredth time to ask for another pencil lead. Then you look at others, and there’s a dull disappointment. You look at some people, and you’re fucking relieved. In fact, you’re never going to see approximately ninety-eight percent of these students again. You’re never going to see Joshua again once he relocates for business school. He grabs the last chocolate milk carton and you sigh quietly. You keep staring at the gold tassel hanging off the back of Joshua’s cap, how it bobbles from side to side while he balances the plate on his arm and stacks it high with wafer cookies, flavoured in vanilla and strawberry.

ALSO, pls do not feel obligated to read this entire thing! if halfway through you’re like “this isn’t for me” then feel free to step away. i did think abt uploading this as a series, but this feels like something which should be uploaded all at once. you’re not going to let the honey boy slip away twice. the universe doesn’t give second chances very often. five years later, after accepting an offer to pass the summer at a friend’s lake house, he’s standing right in front of you. ✧✎ synopsis: when you graduate high school, you realize you’re not really going to miss anyone, apart from a cute boy who doesn’t even remember your name. ⚬ genres: SLOWBURN, back and forth PINING, angst, summer romance, spice/nsfw mentions and smut, eventual friends to lovers, brief high school!au, fluff, slight love triangle, lots of teasing/flirting.
