When Phoebe thought she’d done everything she probably shouldn’t, everything that was in one way or another wrong, of course she had to be wrong. Maybe it was wrong to sleep with Diego and then start to avoid him and maybe she had her reasons but that was not important right now, what was important - she finally got what she always wanted. And she didn’t know how she felt about that.
Do you know how long Phoebe’s been drooling over Elio? You probably do but I’ll give you a little reminder… For waaaaay too long. It’s always fun to chase someone who obviously doesn’t want you, to try to prove to yourself that you can change someone’s opinion and get everyone you want. Well, Phoebe had nothing better to do with her life, not wanting a real relationship only adding to the way she acted. So you can imagine how she felt when she finally succeeded in her Elio mission. Yes, you heard me. Have you not seen his picture on insta? Cmon. Everyone has. What happened? Well… Was that really important? She was in a way seen with him and that was, for now, enough for her. Hence why she’s been a bit more positive over the last few weeks.
Another good news - France. Yes, Phoebe was one of those students counting down the days, excited about the ski trip. Has she been able to sleep? No, of course not. She’s been packing for three days now, planning all of her very cute and probably not that warm outfits in advance, her room was a mess but it’s something she’ll have to deal with once she comes back home. She’s been to France before, you really think she didn’t travel with her dad around the world? I don’t want to hear a no. But it’s always been summer so don’t judge her for arriving at the airport in biker shorts. She’ll find a way to keep herself warm. At least she had a fluffy jacket, that counts, right?
Losing her sister a long time ago, with airpods in, Phoebe looked for her seat, a ticket in her hand. This could either go very well or… just terribly. Imagine if she had to be next to Diego!! Or Jp. If that was the case we might as well just cancel this trip, okay? Alright, it’s gonna be okay… Oh, hello random people… Nope, not my seat - wait, it is - nope, this is 6 not 16… Hi logan, Hi Die- Nope, nope, just keep walking. No eye contact aaaand… We’re clear, phew… Oh there you are sister, good luck with peopl- Oh hell no, Quinn? Really? Should I ask her to switch seats? I should, I definitely should. I just can’t let this happen this is - Wait this is my seat and it’s… ”Elio,” with a sweet smile, Phoebe paused her music right in time to hear what he was saying, by now completely forgetting about Amie’s situation… SORRY. Unfortunately that smile was quickly replaced with… A mix of so many emotions that weren’t that… pleasant, seeing who was next to Elio. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Trip canceled, go home kids. BUT REALLY? JP AND… LENORA? Was someone messing with them right now? No, this had to be a joke. It’s a joke, haha very funny!
For a second Phoebe’s gaze remained on the lovely couple in her row, trying so hard not to say anything… mean to the boy she once called a friend. But she decided to do something even worse, she put on another sweet smile that probably seemed a little devious from their point of view, before taking her seat. ”Hm?” She mumbled as he continued talking to her, making herself comfy in her seat while trying to ignore the two next to them… Just like Elio was doing, it seems. And once she heard him in a way confirming that she let out a laugh that was… Maybe a bit louder than it should’ve been. ”I care too much about you,” only when she said that, making sure it was loud enough for people around them to hear, did she start speaking normally and actually focusing only on the guy next to hear. ”To harm you in any way. But if you insist… I just don’t want to get in any trouble right now you know… I would like to go on with my life if that’s possible,” dramatically placing her hand on her chest she chuckled to herself, trying to let it show she was joking all along. ”But let’s maaaaybe give it another hour and see how it goes, maybe you’ll change your mind, I mean is it really bad to be sitting next to me?” She almost whispered now, a goofy smile still on her lips. ”I can see why you don’t have a problem sitting this close to Julian, I’m also very happy about that but me? Never did I think I would be the problem. If you apologize I’ll think about not bothering you for…” She looked down at the non-existent watch on her left wrist. ”Another 12 hours.”
