Chapter 16 – New Rochelle


[05:02am] Quinn?

[05:10am] Hi!

[05:11am] Why are you up already, baby?

[05:18am] I had a nightmare and I can't fall back asleep

[05:26am] Aww that sucks, I'm sorry!

[05:27am] Are you okay?

[05:34am] Yeah, I think so

[05:39am] What did you dream about?

[05:45am] Promise you won't be upset?

[05:52am] Why would I be upset about your nightmare?

[06:01am] Just promise

[06:06am] Okay... I promise

[06:10am] Just tell me, Rach, you're making me nervous

[06:14am] Okay

[06:15am] I dreamed that you had switched back to old Quinn all of the sudden

[06:16am] You started being rude to me and saying bad things...

[06:17am] Then I went to visit you because I wanted to know what was wrong

[06:18am] And you and all of your college friends threw slushies at me

[06:19am] I know it sounds ridiculous but it was unsettling and kinda scary

[06:27am] That's not ridiculous...

[06:29am] God this is heartbreaking, I don't even know what to say

[06:30am] I'm so so sorry Rach

[06:32am] You can bet your ass that if there was one thing I would change in my past it would be the way I treated you

[06:33am] You never deserved anything I did

[06:33am] No one did, but specially you, you had always been nothing but kind to me and I couldn't apologize enough

[06:34am] You can be sure that in no way I would ever switch back to old Quinn

[06:35am] I'm never hurting you again, Rach

[06:36am] And I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you don't doubt that

[06:48am] I know that

[06:49am] I know you're different now, and I trust you more than I trust any of my friends

[06:50am] You don't have to apologize, Quinn

[06:50am] I didn't mean to make you feel guilty...

[06:56am] I really wish I could erase our past

[06:59am] I don't

[07:02am] What do you mean?

[07:08am] Who knows

[07:08am] Maybe if we didn't have such a bumpy road we wouldn't be where we are right now

[07:13am] You're always so smart

[07:14am] Thank you, Rach

[07:16am] For what?

[07:20am] For being so nice to me, even after everything

[07:24am] It's such a pleasure to have you in my life :)

[07:28am] Can I call you?

[07:32am] Sure

[07:32am] Is everything okay?

[07:36am] Yeah, I just got off work and I kinda miss your voice

[07:40am] Oh, okay, sure

[07:41am] My voice is all raspy and sleepy though

[07:44am] If that's you trying to convince me not to call you, it didn't work at all

[07:45am] In fact, now I wanna hear it even more

[07:45am] Calling you right now!

...

[03:34pm] I think Kwini liked your voice

[03:39pm] Why?

[03:42pm] I was playing on my phone right now and she came closer to it and started howling

[03:43pm] She's probably trying to call you

[03:47pm] Awww, she should have howled when I was on the phone so I could hear her!

[03:55pm] I'll train that to do that next time

[04:01pm] Rach, no offense, but you can't even train her to not ruin your house

[04:06pm] Not true! She's getting better!

[04:07pm] This morning she didn't pee in the house at all! She actually waited until I took her outside!

[04:07pm] Sure, maybe it has something to do with the fact that we went out way earlier than usual, but still!

[04:08pm] I'm just so proud she's growing up so fast

[04:14pm] Sometimes I think maybe the dog wasn't such a good idea

[04:19pm] It was a great idea, what are you talking about?

[04:20pm] We're currently having the time of our lives in the park

[04:21pm] And by that I mean I'm sitting talking to you while Kwini is running like mad and trying to catch other dogs even though she can't see them

[04:22pm] Such a little fighter I love her

[04:24pm] I hate you two

[04:25pm] I'm in class trying not to die of boredom

[04:31pm] I would hate me if I were you too

[04:31pm] The day is surprisingly warm, I think spring is coming earlier this year

[04:37pm] Yeah, it's warm in here too

[04:39pm] I have a very important question

[04:43pm] What is it?

[04:50pm] Who's cuter, me or Kwini?

[04:55pm] I'm offended by how much time you're taking to answer this

[04:57pm] I definitely can not choose, I'm so sorry

[04:59pm] I'm hurt

[04:59pm] You've just met her! I used to be the prettiest girl you've ever met!

[05:03pm] Sorry she's irresistible

[05:07pm] I was just thinking that her name reminds me of Kiwi the fruit

[05:10pm] Can you please not ruin my dog's name? Thank you

[05:14pm] I'm not ruining, kiwi is a good fruit

[05:18pm] Quinn a weirdo man is playing with Kwini

[05:19pm] I don't know what to do

[05:20pm] What do I do?

[05:24pm] Call her and get her home

[05:25pm] Grab a cab nearby

[05:28pm] I don't think she recognizes my voice yet and she can't see me

[05:29pm] Also I don't think you can take dogs on cabs

[05:36pm] Be careful Rach

[05:36pm] See, that's why you need me in my life, I would totally kick that man ass

[05:37pm] Do you want me to call the cops?

[05:40pm] Calm down, Protective Quinn

[05:43pm] I'm not protective, I just care about you

[05:44pm] Sometimes I think you forget that you're kinda famous now

[05:44pm] There are a lot of crazy people out there

[05:49pm] I don't think I'm famous enough to have stalkers yet

[05:50pm] Anyway, I'm always careful

[05:50pm] But you're cute for caring

[05:54pm] Not as cute as Kwini though...

[05:58pm] I'm not sorry lol

[06:00pm] We're on our way home now

[06:02pm] I'm so glad I have the night off tonight

[06:06pm] Hey, me too!

[06:07pm] We could watch Netflix

[06:13pm] Oh, I got a party to go

[06:14pm] It's my friend's bacharolette party

[06:15pm] But we can watch it some other time?

[06:15pm] I'm sorry

[06:22pm] Don't worry about it! :)

[06:23pm] It's just that watching Netflix gets kinda boring without your annoying comments all the time

[06:24pm] But yeah, we can watch some other time

[06:30pm] Will you keep talking to me while I get ready though?

[06:36pm] Of course!

[06:43pm] Okay great! Thanks!

[06:47pm] I really wish I could get a dog too

[06:48pm] I feel like I'm getting too old to be cuddling with plush bears

[06:54pm] You have plush bears? I didn't know that!

[06:59pm] No but I wish I had some

[07:04pm] I'll try to find a plush dog that looks like Kwini!

[07:07pm] That would be totally adorable

[07:12pm] I know right?

[07:14pm] Hey, help me out

[07:18pm] What's up?

[07:30pm] Which dress should I wear?

[07:31pm] The red one

[07:31pm] [1 file attached] x

[07:33pm] Or this black one?

[07:33pm] [1 file attached] x

[07:41pm] Red has always been your color, you look great in it

[07:42pm] But does this dress has enough fabric to cover your butt? It looks so short

[07:48pm] Of course it does

[07:49pm] And I will wear tights

[07:53pm] Then red it is :)

[07:58pm] Awesome, just gotta finish my make up then

[08:02pm] You got ready pretty quickly

[08:03pm] I'm surprised

[08:14pm] I guess I got used to it because I gotta change so many times on stage

[08:15pm] How do I look?

[08:15pm] [1 file attached] x

[08:17pm] Mesmerizing, like always

[08:19pm] Thank you very much

[08:20pm] So, what are we gonna watch?

[08:26pm] What do you mean?

[08:27pm] What about your party?

[08:34pm] Baby, I'm the party

[08:38pm] Are you just gonna stay home and drink alone?

[08:39pm] Cause that's pathetic and borderline alcoholic, Rach

[08:42pm] Maybe

[08:43pm] No, I'm kidding

[08:43pm] I just cancelled it

[08:48pm] Why?

[08:51pm] Because the minute I got ready I realized I would muc rather stay in and watch movies with you then socializing with people I don't even like that much

[08:52pm] And it felt kinda pointless to go out knowing that no one would use compliments like mesmerizing when they saw me in my red dress

[08:53pm] Seriously?

[08:57pm] Yep! You have my undivided attention :)

[08:58pm] (Except you gotta share it with Kwini)

[09:01pm] You're unbeliavable

[09:05pm] Aren't you happy with my company?

[09:07pm] Of course I am

[09:09pm] Good! I just missed you too much.

[09:13pm] But we're talking right now

[09:17pm] Oh you know what I mean

[09:18pm] I think I'd miss you even if I'd never met you

[09:20pm] That's cornyyyyyy

[09:24pm] There you go ruining my cuteness

[09:27pm] lol I'm sorry

[09:28pm] You know I miss you too

[09:29pm] More than anything

[09:36pm] Someone rang my doorbell and left me a pizza but I didn't order it?

[09:37pm] Do you think it's poisoned?

[09:38pm] Maybe it IS a stalker omg

[09:43pm] Mhm nope

[09:44pm] You can eat it, I sent you

[09:47pm] What? Really?

[09:50pm] Yup

[09:53pm] Why?

[09:58pm] I thought you were going out

[09:59pm] And you always come back hungry when you get drunk

[10:03pm] You're my favorite person in this whole world

[10:05pm] Yeah, Kwini is cuter though...

[10:07pm] Quinn?

[10:09pm] Yeah?

[10:12pm] I love Kwini to death

[10:13pm] But I would totally rather have you here sharing this pizza with me and watching our movies

[10:14pm] I would always choose you

[10:16pm] And you're the silliest for being jealous
