     there  was  a  list  of  things  teddy  liked  that  should  make  this  the  trip  of  his  dreams:  the  neatly  planned  itinerary  folded  in  his  pocket  —  with  extra  copies  in  his  bags,  spending  time  with  sawyer,  their  newly  purchased  collection  of  favorite  snacks,  the  promise  of  star  wars  related  adventures  at  the  end  of  this  adventure.  and  then  there  were  the  catch:  the  fact  that,  very  likely,  the  same  sawyer  he  was  spending  time  with  would  heavily  encourage  him  to  break  from  his  itinerary.

     which,  naturally,  he  would  end  up  doing.  this  did  less  to  quell  his  excitement,  and  instead  did  more  to  increase his anxiety.

     they've  just  made  it  out  of  the  city,  all  their  bags  packed  in  the  back  of  a  rental  car  —  and  are  not  in  a  walmart  parking  lot,  bags  of  snacks  being  placed  with  precision  in  the  center  console.    ❛    d-did  you,  uh,  remember  a  first  aid  kit ?    ❜      his  eyes  flash  back  to  the  storefront.  it  had  been  on  the  list.      ❛    i  could  run  b-back  and  get  one.      ❜

     so  things  hadn't  been  going  great.  not  with  her  life,  not  with  her  connections  to  the  people  she  actually  cared  about  ...  which  was,  in  this  conversation  of  friendships  gone  strained,  limited  to  kevin  and  chelsea.  the  former  of  who  was  scheduled  to  meet  pippa  at  a  coffee  shop  in  about  three  minutes,  she  notices,  according  to  the  clock  on  the  wall.  pippa  espina  early,  or  even  on  time:  first  time  for  everything.  but  what  could  be  classified  as  a  reintroduction  after  some  distance  was  a  worthy  enough  occasion.

     drifting  apart  was  her  fault,  naturally,  shitty  behavior  and  a  refusal  to  change.  but  she'd  promised  she  would  now,  and  that's  what  mattered.  even  if  it  was  cloaked  in  dishonesty  —  she'd  try  and  be  a  little  nicer,  she  could  work  on  that.  genuinely.  in  front  of  kevin,  at  least.  but  with  the  single  community  college  class  she'd  signed  up  for  long  gone  unattended,  and  the  fact  that  she's  currently  disguising  a  hangover  ...  other  things  still  needed  some  work  she  wasn't  ready  to  put  in.

     as  the  bell  at  the  entrance  of  the  store  chimed,  pippa  jumped  up  and  circled  around  a  few  tables  to  meet  kevin.    ❛     kev !    ❜    she,  smiles,  eyes  brightening  as  much  as  they  could  with  pounding  headache.    ❛    i  didn't  order  yet,  but  my  treat  at  the  counter.    ❜      a  thumb  juts  back  to  the  barista  making  an  annoyed  looking  businessman  his  drink.

     parties  weren't  really  hayden's  thing.  but  after  being  dragged  to  a  party  by  her  freshman  roommate,  an  encounter  with  the  girl  now  sitting  in  front  of  her  had  assured  hayden  that  they  certainly  were  blake's  thing.  she  wasn't  really  sure  how  they  had  ended  up  as  friends,  though  her  penchant  for  solitude  had  hayden  considering  them  more  acquaintances.  all  she  remembers  from  that  particular  evening  something  about  spilled  beer  and  the  music  being  too  loud  for  her  to  think.  

     but  here  they  were,  and  considering  the  limited  nature  of  hayden's  options  in  the  companionship  department,  she  was  planning  on  keeping  them  that  way.  she  sits  cross  legged  on  her  bed,  looking  exasperated.    ❛    it's  july,    ❜    she  deadpans.   ❛    why  the  fuck  is  there  even  a  frat  party  in  july  ?     ❜

      let  alone  in  new  york  city.  she  knew  logically  that  it  wasn't  the  toga  parties  and  football  games  that  movies  show  but  ...  still.  she  had  much  better  things  to  do  than  sip  something  gross  out  of  a  solo  cup  and  listen  to  bad  music.

kinney, sawyer.

sawyer could handle her liquor …     she only needed to know what she was handling.     and whatever this was did not register.     tasting of everything and nothing at all.     it was impressive more than anything.     not that she’d give sienna that kind of satisfaction.                    ❛     well, it tastes like tv static.     and jet fuel.     ❜      she dares take another sip—this time bracing herself for the fiery concoction—but experiences a hitch when it comes to swallowing.     and she coughs :   subtly, stifled as if not enjoying what was essentially  BATTERY ACID  would somehow make her inferior.     less brave and more of a quitter.     she was not.                    ❛     i mean, what’s wrong with like, a nice cider or even lemonade ?      because this is something a non - functioning alcoholic would make.     ❜ it’s that sort of joke only siblings could make :    inappropriate and borderline offensive, reserved only for those tied by blood.     even if theirs was no match.      unnoticeable anyhow.     because despite differences     ( and there were many )     sienna and sawyer were ultimately two sides of the same coin.      stubborn, proud, and too much for everybody else.                                    ❛     need me to take you to a meeting ?     ❜         

     sienna  sipped  her  drink,  eyebrows  raised  at  sawyer’s  critique,  and  eye  rolling  when  she  finished.  her  drink  was  delicious,  first  and  foremost.  another  sip.  okay.  it  WASN’T  delicious,  but  it  was  certainly  enough  for  a  nice  buzz  on  an  annoyingly  hot  july  afternoon.    ❛    you’re  pickier  with  your  mixed  drinks  than  you  are  with  your  boyfriends.      ❜      sienna  said.  

     setting  her  drink  down  next  to  her  with  a  satisfying  clink,  she  reaches  for  the  hair  tie  around  her  wrist  and  swoops  her  hair  into  a  messy  knot  atop  her  head.  she's  trying  her  hardest  to  focus  on  the  weak  breeze  of  the  fan  buzzing  across  from  them.

     ❛    i'll  go  to  AA  the  second  you  go  to  couples  therapy  with  your  next  one.    ❜    sienna  told  her,  a  glance  given  back  to  her  younger  sister  as  she  picks  up  her  drink  once  more.  the  heat  in  the  air  has  already  melted  half  the  ice  cubes,  a  little  ring  of  water  left  on  the  table.

     she thinks for a moment, nose wrinkling as the fan turns away from her and back to sawyer.     ❛    actually,  do  you  think  they  have  air  conditioning  there ?    ❜

     it  took  over  an  hour  by  subway  to  make  it  to  him    —    a  fact  sienna  had  gleefully  and  repeatedly  pointed  out  as  testament  to  her  dedication  when  they  were,  quote  unquote    “    dating.    ”      i'm  the  perfect  not  girlfriend,  she  would  inform  him,  as  if  the  trek  from  brooklyn  to  the  bronx  meant  anything  but  her  catching  up  on  whatever  book  she  was  reading.  and  as  if  he  wasn't  usually  the  one  to  make  his  way  over  to  her.  

     though  once  his  ex-girlfriend  was  satiated,  and  sienna  felt  as  if  her  spinster  status    (    at  thirty  ?  really  ?    )    within  the  kinney  family  had  faded    ...    well,  there  quickly  became  fewer  and  fewer  reasons  to  make  the  trek.  it's  the  first  time  in  two  months  now,  and  she's  entered  the  bar  where  he  is,  table  that  was  formerly  their  usual  and  now  occupied  by  one  jordan  tucker.  ah,  memories.    

     ❛    you  know,  you  should  honestly  consider  a  move  if  you  want  to  see  me  ever  again.  or  you  could  start  visiting  me  again.    ❜    she  slides  into  the  booth,  offering  him  a  smile.    ❛    but  then  my  family  might  start  to  think  we're  amicable,  and  i  really  embellished  that  breakup.  like,  you  looked  bad.    ❜

KINNEY, sawyer.

starter for sienna kinney     /     @freefallens​ !

IT WAS FIVE PM SOMEWHERE     ——     but in brooklyn it was only noon.     sun high up in the sky, and two sisters reposed in loungers on their front porch.     sawyer didn’t usually partake in day - drinking, and though summertime offers a pass :     she was still partial to late evening chats over boxed wine.     not … whatever this was.     spitting out her very first sip, she oh - so - gracefully drools all over a newly bought bikini.     another load of laundry, then.     a thought pushed to the back of her mind, as the front is entirely occupied by a burning mouth.                   ❛     yecch !     what did you put in this …     GASOLINE ?     ❜

     on  a  day  off,  quite  frankly,  sawyer  was  LUCKY  sienna  was  up  before  noon.  let  alone  up  and  cheerful  enough  to  graciously  make  them  perfect  drinks,  thank  you  very  much.  a  concoction  of  her  own,  some  weird  cross  between  some  of  the  summer  friendly  mixes  she  had,  and  a  long  island  iced  tea    —    except  only  the  part  where  it  was  a  bunch  of  different  liquors  mixed  together.    

     ❛    nope,  just  jet  fuel,    ❜    she  shoots  back,  a  bright  grin  on  her  face,  downing  part  of  her  drink.    ❛    and  it's  called  the  sienna  special.  you  should  learn  to  be  appreciative  of  my  bartending  genius.    ❜    it  wasn't  called  that,  because  no  one  had  ever  made  it  before  ...  but  it  was  now.
