HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

me with the secret history by donna tartt

annotated margins but it just says “gay???” repeatedly at various points throughout the book

touya todoroki embodied the profound eldest daughter pain in every single way. the vigilance of not giving in to the love you’re finally offered too late because it feels like a betrayal to the pain your younger self has felt and carried forever…..vs the screaming, wailing, childlike ache at the mere thought that the ones you always begged for attention have finally looked your way, and the misery it took to get there…..the mental image of the child you were when you finally broke, recognizing that that part of you has never really gone away……and then his final scene…the guilt of leaving your innocent younger sibling behind in all the terror so that you can seek out what YOU need, likely to their detriment….the pain of knowing you harbored hatred toward them because they were beloved when you were not….and coming to understand that they, too, suffered, even if it didn’t look the same, and that now you’ve contributed to that suffering, and what does that make you?…..god i will never ever ever recover from him. he carried too much, too long, just like all of us.

Sweet Welcomes:

There he was again, back in the same head space he tried to stay away from, a space he made just for the two of them. He was aimlessly scrolling through Instagram when he stumbled across a picture that stopped everything around him, leaving him in nothing but empty silence, there he was smile plastered across his face and his arms crossed over her shoulders, he remembered the memory like yesterday. He smiled allowing the same space to take his mind away.

He smelt the carnival popcorn, cotton candy and hotdogs “Come on Colson, it’ll be fun!” She exclaimed as she grabbed his hand gently ushering him through the crowd regardless of the stares and whispers around them. He hated going out with her, she deserved to be with someone that didn’t receive so much negative attention, she was too kind for that. “Colson Baker pay attention.” She teased as she poked his chest causing him to laugh as he shook his head “You’ve got all my attention baby girl.” He said grabbing her waist pulling her close to him as they rocked together in line.

More whispers, a few snide comments and nasty remarks that caused him to flinch and he knew she heard everyone of them but never did her smile falter,  she paid them no mind look up at the night sky “See it’s beautiful skies like this that you could sing about.” she said mindlessly as he smiled all attention on her soft facial features “You know? I will.” He said kissing her forehead as she laughed, the line began to move rapidly until they were seated on the Ferris wheel, going up. “You know, there’s no easy way to say this Colson.” She started as his heart began to sink into his chest as he watched her with sad eyes, he knew it was too good to be true, it always was. “So I’m just gonna say it.” She said taking a deep breath, “I love you.” “You’re breaking up with me?” They said in unison causing an awkward silence.

It didn’t dawn on Colson what she said in that moment “You love me?” He asked shocked as she looked out the cart towards the fields “You don’t have to say it back, I just needed to get it off my chest.” She said shrugging as he shook his head taking her face in his hands as he placed a soft kiss on her lips “Damn, I love you too. I didn’t want to say it first and scare you away.” He said softly as she laughed “Couldn’t scare me even if you tried Baker.” She teased as he laughed “A picture or it never happened” he teased her famous phrase as she laughed taking out her phone and snapping a few pictures.

He smiled as he scrolled to the caption “Whoa, it's my husbands birthday. It doesn’t get any less weirder to say, can’t believe I married this dork. He’s out and about in different countries while me and Casie are chilling at home make different dishes each night, so who's really losing? Anyway; this was supposed to be about my husband. So happy birthday to my favorite person in the entire world! Pictures or it never happened right?” He laughed as he called her “Yes loser?” She said into the phone “God I love you. Have I ever told you how lucky I am?” He said causing her to laugh “Everyday baby. Now hurry home, you have a lot of dishes to try.” She said as he laughed “Of course Mrs. Baker.” He teased as she sighed “Goodbye Mr. Baker, me and Casie love you.” She said as he replied a quick ’I love you’ in return before putting the phone down and resting his head on the seat.

“An hour before were home free.” Slim said tapping Colson as he nodded “I can’t wait.” He said smiling with anticipation, he couldn’t wait to see his family.
