Chapter 4 - Walnut Beach


[05:55am] Hey are you awake?

[06:02am] Yup!

[06:06am] Good, I need to talk to you about High School Musical

[06:09am] ? Are you serious right now?

[06:12am] Why are you even awake so early? I thought you woke up at 7

[06:15am] I do, but I woke up in the middle of the night with a High School Musical song stuck in my head and now I can't fall back asleep

[06:18am] You have some serious problems

[06:20am] I can always fall back asleep

[06:23am] What song was it?

[06:26am] Bop to the Top

[06:30am] Of course it is

[06:31am] Don't even know why I asked, tbh

[06:34am] I don't see what you mean with that

[06:36am] Why didn't we ever do High School Musical in Glee?

[06:38am] I don't even like it that much

[06:42am] Me neither actually, but still

[06:43am] It seems fitting

[06:43am] And it's much better than Mr. Schuester raps

[06:47am] That's not even a fair fight lol

[06:52am] I miss Glee club

[06:55am] Yeah, me too

[06:57am] Believe it or not, I even miss you fighting for all the solos

[07:02am] I shouldn't HAVE to fight though, they were so clearly meant for me

[07:06am] I'm not gonna deny, you always had the best voice between us all

[07:11am] I'm not used to having you agree so easily

[07:13am] I like new Quinn much better than I liked old Quinn

[07:16am] I grew kind of fond of her too

[07:24am] What's your favorite Disney movie?

[07:30am] Lion King, obviously

[07:31am] The only reasonable choice

[07:34am] ...

[07:36am] God, I'm afraid to ask

[07:37am] What's yours?

[07:40am] Snow White

[07:41am] I really liked the dwarfs!

[07:43am] You have terrible taste

[07:44am] I never liked any of the princesses, I only liked the movies with animals

[07:46am] Like Aristocats, and Fox and the Hound and Oliver and Co and Nemo

[07:47am] Oh and Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan and Lilo and Stitch

[07:50am] So you basically liked all of them

[07:52am] No, I didn't like the princesses

[07:53am] But anyway, none of them came close to the Lion King

[07:55am] I liked all of those too but I don't think the princesses were that bad

[07:58am] Beauty and the Beast for example, it's amazing!

[07:59am] Also Enchanted!

[08:02am] Meh

[08:05am] I liked Maleficent though

[08:08am] You do seem like the kind of person who likes the villains

[08:14am] Sometimes

[08:16am] I hate Scar though

[08:23am] We all do, he was just ruthless

[08:31am] Yeah

[08:34am] Hey, I'm gonna take a nap, alright?

[08:38am] Yeah, I gotta get going to class too

[08:40am] I have a busy day today, with classes and reharsals in the evening

[08:43am] Wish me luck!

[08:45am] Good luck!

[08:46am] Although you don't really need it

[08:46am] What you need is coffee!

[08:48am] Maybe...

[08:49am] Sweet dreams!

...

[10:42pm] Hey back

[10:44pm] Hi! I thought you were dead!

[10:48pm] I am, basically. The reharsal was supposed to be over around 7, and we just finished now

[10:50pm] I'm so fucked up because I have so much homework for tomorrow and I planned on doing it after reharsals but now I'll have to pull an all nighter probably

[10:56pm] Ugh, that sucks... Sorry :(

[10:57pm] I gotta start my shift, ttyl

[10:59pm] No no no no

[11:00pm] Don't leave me! I'm afraid of going home alone, I need you to keep texting me!

[11:02pm] I have to work!

[11:05pm] I'll walk fast I promise

[11:09pm] That's dangerous Rach

[11:10pm] You should take a cab

[11:14pm] Taxi drivers are crazy in this city, I don't trust them

[11:17pm] You're lucky, it seems like we're having a slow night in here

[11:20pm] Oh that's great, then you can stay up all night with me!

[11:26pm] Well it's not like I ever get to sleep anyway

[11:30pm] Yay!

[11:32pm] I'm home! See, I told you I would be fast.

[11:40pm] You really were

[11:42pm] Look, I'm gonna pretend I'm working for a while because boss is here, but as soon as he leaves I'll text you, alright?

[11:45pm] Okay! I'll be waiting!

...

[00:20am] God, does your work delivers coffee? I'm so sleepy already

...

[00:51am] We don't, unfortunately

[00:53am] I'm better now, I took an energy shot

[00:58am] Now you're finally starting to sound like a college student!

[01:00am] I wish I didn't!

[01:01am] Did your boss leave?

[01:04am] Yeah, finally

[01:06am] I'm listening to your ~mixtape~ now

[01:29am] Oh really? Did you like it?

[01:34am] I'm not done yet, I'll tell you when I am

[01:36am] I'm just trying to figure out your line of thoughts to think that the Bananas in Pajamas theme song would be appropriated for a coffee shop

[01:43am] That was me testing whether or not you would really listen it

[01:44am] Congrats, you've passed

[01:46am] Also you said bananas were your favorites so...

[01:52am] You're ridiculous, of course I would hear it!

[01:55am] There's one student right now who is doing some work in here

[01:56am] You just had to see his face when this song started

[01:58am] I think he was certain he was going crazy

[02:11am] lol You should have recorded it

...

[03:46am] Still up?

[03:50am] Yup

[03:51am] And still not even near done

[03:52am] Life sucks

[03:58am] We're having a barbecue!

[04:01am] ?

[04:02am] It's 4am

[04:05am] Yeah but Debbie (my co-worker) found a grill in the back and why not right? We're not busy anyway

[04:09am] Are you drunk?

[04:11am] Oh yeah, on lemonade

[04:11am] I don't drink

[04:14am] Really?

[04:17am] Yeah

[04:20am] One more thing I learned about new Quinn then

[04:23am] Wait where did you even get meat to grill?

[04:26am] Debbie called her boyfriend and he brought some steaks

[04:28am] Now they're probably banging on the back while I eat alone since that one student left already

[04:34am] Don't you have a boyfriend you could call?

[04:38am] I don't date boys anymore

[04:42am] Are you serious?

[04:43am] Yup

[04:46am] Omg since when?

[04:49am] Pretty much since I left Lima

[04:51am] It had already been a while since I realized I didn't like boys as much as I tried to convince myself

[04:53am] Okay so let me rephrase that

[04:56am] Don't you have a girlfriend you could call?

[05:01am] I haven't dated any girls either tbh

[05:03am] Oh

[05:05am] Im sorry, I just assumed...

[05:07am] It's okay

[05:09am] I didn't say I would never

[05:11am] You just didn't find the right person?

[05:13am] More like the right person hasn't found me yet

[05:15am] Well, I feel you

[05:18am] Although I honestly don't think I would have any time for a relationship right now

[05:23am] Yeah well, me neither

[05:25am] So, did you finish the mixtape?

[05:29am] Yeah! It's pretty good! You have a good ear for music, we both already knew I would like it.

[05:32am] Which song was your favorite?

[05:38am] What I Really Wanna Say, by Nicole Serrano

[05:40am] Dammit I was hoping you were going to say Bananas in Pajamas

[05:44am] Dumbass

[05:46am] No but really

[05:47am] I really like that one too

[05:47am] I'm glad you liked it

[05:49am] Are you done with homework?

[05:52am] Yeah

[05:53am] To be honest I'm falling asleep right now

[05:55am] But don't you have classes?

[05:58am] Only at 10am

...

[06:42am] You must be asleep already, I'm finishing up things now

[06:45am] Sleep well, love! And don't wake up with my texts!

[07:01am] Okay I was secretely hoping you would wake up

[07:03am] But it's fine, I'll go to sleep now too

[07:04am] Bye, sleeping beauty! Xxx
