 It was the best of times, the worst of crimes. My dear friend Autumn and I decided to partake in a car ride to Malibu and treat ourselves to strawberry ice cream. Little did we both know of what that car ride would ultimately lead to... it was quite the frenzy indeed.

I swore my getting away in getaway cars and escaping graveyard days were over. No more crashing into New York buildings or ramming people off the crossroad. As Harry Styles once said "It's not the same as it was. ". However, all I know is pouring rain and the uber never arrived... whoops.

For the record though, this time I really didn't crash into buildings while screaming my lungs out to The Weeknd's After Hours album, or ram off pedestrians. May I remind you that I've tOtALLy matured since 2021 *lie detected* OH SHUT UP LIE DETECTOR, YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S LYING-

Sure, I may be on the verge of turning 17 and this time I'm legally old enough to drive. What possibly could've gone wrong?.... Oh, A LOT. It was one thing after another,safetaynets to waterfalls and cats and coneheads. God, I don't even know where to start...

Ah well, there's nothing like the merry month of May. I never really realized how many special occasions and birthdays take place in May. You've got Cinco De Mayo, May 13th, @KarmaIs_aRat's birthday on the 9th, @Melody__Moonstone's birthday on the 14th, Oh yeah, and a million Mother Days. 

Now you're probably wondering where the hell is the HN gang in this story. Y'know, I've been wondering that myself. I have some tricks up my sleeve *poofs up inflated cat from my cardigan's sleeve* but I've come to the conclusion that the HN gang can't co-exist with Autumn. They're too sane for the gang.

However, this is my hn book and in this universe you guys all know eachother, also know my online mom ( Fatiha) + my 500 crazed swiftie siblings and are all besties!! Sorry to the HN gang though, because in this chapter, I don't think you guys will make an appearance 😅

So I told them " Think about the day when you first met me. "

" May 13th. " 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

After coming back home, X marks the the spot where we fell apart, and it hit us like a shotgun shot in the dark. One moment we were in Malibu visiting our friends Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Gray in that very ice cream shop and next thing you know we're swerving beneath the waterfall's high tides. It was quite the sour superache 😭😭

Olivia Rodrigo had let us borrow her baby blue Ford Bronco... hmm, I wonder why blue :0 ( inside joke between Autumn and I 😅💙 ) and we drove it by the suburbs. Don't pretend it's such a mystery, ofcourse I was the one in the driver's seat *shoves driver's license an inch away from your face* IT'S 2023 HAHA, I CAN DRIVE NOW!! ( P.S. I don't irl, but legally I'm of age now compared to 14/15 y/o me writing hn viii )

Darling, it was good, never looking down. Right there where we drove was holy ground. Or that was until I got too distracted bopping and bawling to Red ( Taylor's Version ) and hit the brakes too soon. 

I ran the red, as I was looking over Autumn. In my defense... I have none. Don't blame me-

I don't know how, but I had managed to ram us into the lakes, where the poets went to die. Sure, I wanted auroras and sad prose.... but not like this. All I had to do was stay on the right lane of the road and drive straight. It turns out that I'm too not so straight for my own good and therefore unable to drive straight. sWoOsH sWoOTsH ✨
