Nora:
Keep being distracted like what?

Arch:
Like lately
'Cause tbh all I think about is you

Nora:
So it's... my fault...?

Arch:
No way no
This is my fault not yours
I let myself have feelings for you
'Cause of that somewhere along the way I lost focus
I've always been so good at balancing everything in my life but then I started talking to you and I liked it
I like talking to you so much that I didn't notice I started thinking about you all the time
I couldn't stop even if I wanted to
But then I lost focus Nora

Nora:
I distract you that much?

Arch:
Yeah

I guess I shouldn't have texted you everyday. That's what started this all. I didn't think. I'm sorry.

Arch:
You don't have anything to apologize for
I let myself be distracted
This is MY fault

Nora:
When you said you can't do this anymore, do you mean we can't keep talking like this or do you mean we can't keep talking at all?

Arch:
Just not right now

Nora:
Not right now... So we can talk again when you win back the title next year? Or after graduation when you don't have to balance school and basketball anymore?

Arch:
I don't mean no communication at all
Just not everyday like this with us investing more feelings than we can commit to

Nora:
I get it. You don't want to lead me on.

Arch:
Sorry

Nora:
It's okay, Arch. It's not like I expected anything. I mean, you're Arch, the Lion Prince. I'm just the sister of your teammate. Us ending up together is the most unrealistic cliché thing ever. I didn't believe it then, and I don't believe it now.

Arch:
You're never just Ansel's sister to me

Nora:
And that's the problem, right?

Like I said, it's okay. I get it, seriously. I enjoyed all our convos. It was fun while it lasted. 🙂

Arch:
Hey don't say it like we won't ever talk again

Nora:
You've said your piece. Now I'll say mine.
I told you before that I'm always here for you, Arch.  And I meant it. If you ever need someone to talk to or fanboy with, I'm just one text/call away. I'll be your friend. I'll even be your best friend. But that doesn't mean I'll wait for you to be anything more.

Arch:
Understood

Nora:
Anything else, pineapple head?

Arch:
Yeah one last thing
You're the kindest and most loving person I know and I don't think I deserve you

Nora:
Don't soothe my bruised ego with your aloe vera words. You know I'm too smart for that. 😂

Arch:
It's the truth

Nora:
Yeah, yeah. Now let me go back to watching Teen Wolf. I wanna know if this Theo dude dies.

Arch:
Lol aight
We cool tho?

Nora:
We're cool. 🙂

Arch:
Good
'Cause I don't wanna lose you as a friend

Nora:
You won't. I'm the Stiles to your Lydia.

Arch:
What

Nora:
Nothing. Good night, Arch.

Arch:
Night Nora
