Fourty Eight

Wednesday Night

[China Jane - 7:34 p.m.]
okay what the fuck is up with you?

[Walz - 7:35 p.m.]
what?

[China Jane - 7:36 p.m.]
you're really going to "what" me?

[Walz - 7:36 p.m.]
i mean...

[China Jane - 7:37 p.m.]
why are you suddenly cutting lauren out of your life?

[Walz - 7:38 p.m.]
woah what the hell?

[China Jane - 7:39 p.m.]
don't play dumb. she's such a sweet girl mila.

[Walz - 7:40 p.m.]
you don't even know her??

[China Jane - 7:41 p.m.]
maybe if you were around you'd know i actually met her

[Walz - 7:42 p.m.]
what? when?

[China Jane - 7:43 p.m.]
yesterday. she came to watch mani and i practice.

[China Jane - 7:43 p.m.]
now quit changing the subject

[China Jane - 7:43 p.m.]
what the hell is wrong with you?

[Walz - 7:45 p.m.]
what the hell is wrong with me? no. what the hell is wrong with you? don't come for me with all these bullshit accusations.

[Walz - 7:46 p.m.]
you know nothing about our friendship.

[China Jane - 7:47 p.m.]
really?

[Walz - 7:48 p.m.]
yup. so why don't you back out of my business.

[China Jane - 7:48 p.m.]
you know normani is my best friend in dance class, right?

[China Jane - 7:48 p.m.]
we talk on a daily.

[Walz - 7:49 p.m.]
is this your attempt to make me jealous or something?

[China Jane - 7:49 p.m.]
no.

[China Jane - 7:50 p.m.]
this is me proving i know shit.

[China Jane - 7:50 p.m.]
apparently you've been ignoring her. messages, phone calls, attempts to hang out. everything.

[Walz - 7:52 p.m.]
normani? i don't even talk to her?

[China Jane - 7:52 p.m.]
drop the fucking act camila.

[China Jane - 7:52 p.m.]
you know i'm not talking about normani.

[China Jane - 7:53 p.m.]
i know everything.

[China Jane - 7:55 p.m.]
reminder: i've known normani for four, almost five years now. so i don't think she'd lie to me about lauren getting attached to people fast and that she showed up on her door step at 2 a.m. in tears because she's terrified she did something wrong to make you not want to be her friend anymore.

[China Jane - 7:56 p.m.]
and the funny thing is, lauren told her you started acting weird as soon as you told her i was teasing you about starring at Hailee's ass.

[China Jane - 7:56 p.m.]
let me stress the word teasing because i never meant to make you feel like i was labeling you.

[China Jane - 7:57 p.m.]
but i'm gonna tell you again what i told you that day: it's not gonna change the way i see you if you like girls. i literally couldn't give less of a fuck.

[China Jane - 7:58 p.m.]
and i don't give a fuck if you like lauren either. in fact, i can't even blame you. she's beautiful as fuck and honestly, i think you guys would make such a hot couple.

[China Jane - 7:59 p.m.]
but on a serious note: if you like her, cut the crap and quit trying to cut the girl out of your life.

[Walz - 8:05 p.m.]
i don't like her.

[Walz - 8:06 p.m.]
and so what if i started acting weird after i told her about you "teasing" me?

[Walz - 8:06 p.m.]
maybe i just don't like people assuming my sexuality.

[China Jane - 8:09 p.m.]
goddamn it camila! i'm not assuming anything! i can see it as clear as daylight! ever since you first brought her up, you've been happy in a way that you never have been before! your eyes sparkle when you talk about her and you have this shit eating grin on your face whenever you're texting her! it's fucking obvious mila! maybe not to anyone else, but to me it is! i'm not fucking blind!

[Walz - 8:21 p.m.]
you are.

[China Jane - 8:23 p.m.]
i'm not. they're feelings. you have feelings for god sake. and yeah it's scary, i know. fuck, you know that i know. but dropping lauren isn't going to make them go away. they are still gonna be there. you can't change the way your heart feels. you know this!

[China Jane - 8:24 p.m.]
so quit the fucking bullshit, sit the fuck down, allow yourself to process the fact that you like her, apologize to her, and text me if you need anything.

[China Jane - 8:25 p.m.]
because you fucking deserve to be happy camila.

[China Jane - 8:26 p.m.]
i'm not letting you let her go when you've barely gotten your chance with her yet.
