Untitled 8 [Writing #22]

I don't even know the origin of this. It wasn't a writing exercise. I don't know why, but I just wrote it one day and though it's cute so I'm posting it here. Not my best work, but the last of my old writing. I still have some one-shots, but I am going to be writing some new small shorts.

Words: 448

Charlotte stood in the doorway of Andrew's office, talking to him. Her boyfriend, Brandon, stood behind her, holding his fingers to his lips so Andrew wouldn't say anything. Brandon grabbed Charlotte's shoulders, making her scream. She turned to see him laughing.
"You fucking asshole!" Charlotte wasn't one for expletives, but it was a reflex at that moment. Andrew couldn't help but chuckle a little.
"Listen, you can't hold that against me. I saw the opportunity and took it. No one told you to allow yourself to be so vulnerable." Brandon wrapped his arms around Charlotte's waist, resting his chin on her shoulder.
"You're such an idiot. Jesus. Please don't do that again."
"I'm sorry." Brandon kissed her cheek, laughing. "So what's the gossip today?" He asked.
"No gossip. I was just asking Char for advice on what to do for Roger and my five year anniversary." Andrew explained.
"Oh. Well, you've come to the right person. Charlotte's expertise is date planning." Brandon smiled. "What did you tell him?"
"Well for their last anniversary, I figured, since Fall Out Boy is Roger's favorite band and they're performing at the arena on their anniversary weekend they could go."
"You're taking him to see Fall Out Boy? He's going to flip." Brandon smiled.
"If I could get tickets, I'll take him, but-"
"Lucky for you I had two tickets for Bran and me, but you take them," Charlotte explained. Andrew's face lit up.
"Wait. What? But I want to see Fall Out Boy too." Brandon whined.
"They're coming back in two months. And we're going to that show. Relax." Charlotte laughed. "I'll bring you the tickets for tomorrow and you can surprise him."
"He's going to shit bricks. I owe you, Char."
"Just name your daughter after her." Brandon teased.
"You owe me nothing." Charlotte smiled. "You guys deserve to have a good time, especially with the baby on the way. Enjoy pre-family life as long as you can."
"But you don't regret having kids, right?" Andrew asked.
"No. I mean- sometimes they're little shits, but then I remember, I decided to procreate with this one." Charlotte laughed.
"Hey."
"They are both just like him. It's wild." She looked at Brandon. "You know it's true."
"Yeah. Jace can be a bit of a shit sometimes. It's all the sugar your mother gives to him."
"Maybe." Charlotte shrugged. "Alright, I'll bring you the tickets tomorrow." She pushed Brandon out of the office.
"Thanks again, Char." Andrew smiled. Charlotte nodded before closing his office door.
"That was nice of you."
"I know. You need to get back to work."
"Okay, Madame CEO." He kissed her cheek.
"Shut up." She pushed him away, laughing.

That Time A President Conducted Meetings from the Toilet

Happy Monday! Another week ahead. This week's weird moment from history is how President Lyndon B. Johnson conducted meetings and interviews while on the toilet. I learned way too much about LBJ while doing research for this post and it is going to be a LONG time before I write another weird history post about him. But there will be at least another one in the future. Man was weird. Quick history lesson for my non-Americans who may not know who LBJ is. Lyndon Baines Johnson was the 36th President of the United States. He assumed the position following the assassination of John F. Kennedy. He was president from 1963 til 1969. NOW if you're like me and you grew up with the rewatching the movie Forrest Gump over and over again your first introduction to LBJ might be when Forrest was being honored with the Medal of Honor and showed the president where he was "shot in the buttocks" during the Vietnam War.  I haven't watched Forrest Gump in years, but if you haven't...

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...

Zac Efron and Garrett Clayton are Basically the Same Person

I, a 21-year-old adult, is still a HUGE fan of the High School Musical franchise. In high school, had I been a better planner, I would have asked Lucas Grabeel to be my prom date. And even though I was older than most viewers, I did love Teen Beach Movie when it came out. In this post, I am going to explain how Zac Efron and Garrett Clayton are basically the same person. Let's start at the beginning. You may know Zac Efron as Troy Bolton in the Disney Channel Original Movie (or DCOM), High School Musical and it's franchise. He is the attractive blue-eyed, protagonist of all three HSM movies. And I will admit that I was a huge fangirl for him in my youth. Honestly, now I can't stand him. But that's for another post. Zac portrayed Troy in all three HSM films, but he only sang in the last two. That's right. Zac Efron did not sing in the first HSM movie. That was the amazingly talented Drew Seeley whom I will love till the day I die. Similarly, Garrett Clayton pl...
