When I pulled away, he smiled down at me. "So we’re doing this?" he asked, low enough that it was only for me to hear.
I threaded my fingers through his. "Yeah, I think we are."
A photo of us went up within the hour, a candid that was blurry with low-light, obviously taken from someone’s phone in the crowd. It was already on at least three gossip accounts before I made it to the backroom.
The comments were a war zone.
@shay_loves_books: Asher was seen kissing Rory in the VIP section at Euphoria! they're together!?
@keiona.nicole86:Is this real life or a Wattpad AU?!
@charity.riddle1: finally. been shipping this since he showed up
@shayisbooked: she downgraded huh
@michaella.r3ads: she looks happy for once. y’all should chill
@ashley_reads_smut: ok but when is the collab dropping???
Gina peeked over my shoulder and gave a low whistle. "Fuck, you broke the internet."
I lowered the phone. "I didn’t mean to."
"Didn’t mean to fall for him either, did you?"
I rolled my eyes, not answering her, continuing to scroll the endless comments. I paused only when she shoved her phone into my face.
"Tell me you’ve seen this. It’s on his Instagram!"
I blinked at the screen, trying to make sense of what I was looking at. I looked at the photo of me and Sullivan, one I didn’t remember being taken. His arm was around my shoulders. my head tilted toward him. We looked… happy.
Underneath it, there was a caption.
Some people move on like it never mattered. I’m not built that way.
The comments below the imagewere already spiraling.
@glennyssduarte: we were rooting for you two :(
@jenthelibrarian_: that’s lowkey a guilt trip
@positivityb4negativity: boy please, she upgraded
@amymartineztriplebphotography: so desperate
Gina didn’t say anything for a long moment. "He’s not over you."
I shook my head. "That’s not what that is."
"It’s not?"
"That’s an attempt at control. He couldn’t be the one to walk away, so now he wants to be the one everyone pities."
She raised an eyebrow. "Are you gonna respond?"
"I’m pretty sure I already did."
"Oh shit, incoming at two o’clock."
