But still. I wish he didn’t do that. That you have a crush. Just my opinion, though. You also don’t have to tell me the truth. I don’t need to know if I’m wrong.

Seth

true. i think he sees me as your other brother tbh. interesting. i will not confirm. so you don't think that our closer relationship would make a difference in the emojis?

Julia

I liked you too much to ever see you like family. He knew that too. Derek says he only sends emojis to girls he likes because he doesn’t want to give the others false hope. You’re his best friend, I figured you shared the same philosophy.

Seth

you knew he knew? maybe that's why he enforced it so much with me... i mean, he's not wrong either but that doesn't mean it's always the case. there are always exceptions and exceptions to exceptions.

Julia

It was the year you had a date for homecoming. I was devastated. It's why I never came out of my room. She was really pretty, and you looked so handsome in your baby blue tie that matched her dress. Okay. Well, what about when someone starts looking at someone’s stories and likes posts more than they once did? I mean, yeah, I could be wrong.

Seth

wait, seriously? he said you were really sick :frowns: i know it's years later but she was just a friend. we weren't together like that... clearly, that person has them on their mind more. there are multiple reasons why

Julia

Yes, seriously and you better never hold my confessions against me. Oh, okay. I'll keep that in mind. I have to go, though. I'll talk to you later.

Julia

Tell Derek to turn down the game. I can hear the stupid guns in my room.

Seth

oh shit our bad, i'll turn it down. sorry for keeping you awake.

Julia

You should be. It's like 2 am, you crazy goose. Thank you.
