Untitled 7 [Writing #18]

This is another writing exercise, because why now? The prompt was "can I kiss you?". It's cute and simple and I hope you enjoy it. This was written in the spirit of my bad fanfiction of 2013. It's not a fanfiction, but it's got that spirit.

Words: 470

Kevin looked at Elena. She looked beautiful under the New York streetlights. He was dropping her off at her apartment, but he didn't want the night to end. They had so much fun, but he had to get back to LA.
"Thank you for tonight." She looked at him, her green eyes sparkled.
"No, thank you." He smiled, shoving his hands in his pockets. "I really enjoyed spending time with you and if I wasn't heading back to LA, I'd ask for another date, but-" He sighed.
"If you come back to the city, we can have coffee." Elena proposed.
"Really?"
"Yes." She laughed. "I really like you. If we didn't live on opposite sides of the country, I could see this blossoming into something beautiful. Whether it be a relationship or just a friendship."
"Wow." Kevin smiled.
"Let's keep in touch. Who knows? You might find yourself back here and I might visit LA?"
"I'd love to keep in touch I think you're an amazing person and I really would like to get to know you better."
"Have you had a New York Fourth of July?" She asked.
"Never. I'm a Cali kid."
"It's great. A few friends and I grill on the roof of my best friend's building and watch the fireworks. You should come back for that."
"It would give me an excuse to get away from my dad's horrible potato salad." Kevin laughed. Elena smiled.
"Great!"
"I'll try to come back for the Fourth of July."
"Perfect." Elena smiled. She wanted to prolong the night as much as she could, but she knew he had an early flight."
"May I kiss you?" Kevin asked.
"You don't even have to ask." She told him. He kissed her, gently. "Why do you have to go back to LA? These past two weeks have been the most fun I've had in a long time. Why can't you stay in New York a little while longer?"
"Because shooting starts in three days and they need their director."
"You promise you'll keep in touch?" She asked.
"I promise."
"Goodnight, Kevin."
"Goodnight, Elena." He smiled. She kissed him, this time more passionately than he did. She wrapped her arm around him. "Have a good night."
"Let me know when you land in LA."
"I will." He promised. She left him and walked into her apartment building without saying another word. Kevin stared at the building.
Part of his brain was telling him to forget the movie and stay in New York longer, but he couldn't abandon ship. The film was the opportunity of a lifetime. He hailed a cab, not knowing she was watching him from her window. She had hoped he was going to ring her bell and say he was going to stay, but the film was much more important.

Why Blue is the Real Villain of Blue's Big City Adventure

Okay, so maybe "villain" isn't the right word. Blue is more like the antagonist. This post is about the Blues' Clues & You movie Blue's Big City Adventure. So there will be spoilers. If you have Paramount+, it's only an hour watch. I promise it is worth the watch if you have watched Blue's Clues in any capacity. Blue's Big City Adventure poster If you were born in the 90s or early 2000s like me then you most likely watched the original Blue's Clues show hosted by either Steve (Steve Burns) or Joe (Donovan Patton). I have an older and a younger brother, so I got to experience both. However, MY host was Steve, and I am a Steve fan til the day I die. I have Blue's Clues & You playing in the background as I write this post because I realized I haven't watched a single episode of the new series despite watching the movie 6 times. I cannot stress enough how much I love Blue's new design. She looks so much fluffier. The original Blue...

Fangirl Friday: Deleasa

 Heyo! Happy Friday! It's that time of the week when I ramble about someone I love! Today's subject is DJ and producer, Deleasa. His name is Mike Deleasa and while I normally refer to my subjects by first name in these posts, I will be referring to him by his stage name, Deleasa. NOW to understand how I became a fan of Deleasa, we have to go all the way back to 2012, when Kevin and Danielle Jonas' reality show, Married to Jonas  premiered. I bet you're wondering what does this guy have to do with the Jonas Brothers? Deleasa is actually Danielle's brother, making him Kevin's brother-in-law. He was featured in the reality show and I ended up falling in love with him. He was actually my parasocial "rebound" from Joe. You can read all about my parasocial breakup with Joe in my Fangirl Friday about him . But enough about the Jonas Brothers. That's not why we're here. Plus I've already written 30k words about them on this blog. However, I am for...

That Time Rod Stewart Found Other Ways of Doing Cocaine

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A...
