What do you want to be when you grow up?

I’ve got to go as well.

Bye.

Tabby,

When I’m there, I will kick anyone’s ass that said you were trash. You’re beautiful, Tabby. Don’t listen to them, and don’t give them that kind of power. You’re too good for them.

Yeah. Dad was saying that money is tight at the moment. Something about a bad turn on the markets, and so we’re recouping. They don’t do the bad stuff, you know. We both know that some stuff cannot be talked about. I hate that I’m not seeing you as much. I’m hoping to get a laptop soon, and then we can stop sending letters and we can chat online. Would you like that?

I want to be prez when I grow up. I’ve always wanted to be part of the club, and I know I can handle it. I’m not being young and stupid either. You can be anything you want to be. Can you sing? I don’t know if I’ve heard you sing before. I would totally love you to sing for me.

Would you be my old lady? I know you don’t want to be part of the club, but I would totally support you, and there’s no one else for me. You know that.

Now I feel stupid because I’m going to have to wait for your answer.

Yeah, still stupid, and I waited a couple of days but I’m not going to cross anything out.

Love,

Simon.

Tabitha: Mom says I can’t be on here long.

Simon: Mine either. It’s so annoying. Mom’s looking all happy as she watches me.

Tabitha: It’s because we’re cute. It’s what I hear Whizz or Lacey say. I like Daisy’s parents. You know what I mean.

Simon: I do. I’ve got a question for you.

Tabitha: I’m waiting. I can’t answer it if you don’t ask me.

Simon: It’s stupid and you’re going to laugh.

Tabitha: So, it’s never bothered you before.

Simon: Have you ever been kissed?

Tabitha: Yeah. Mom and Dad kiss me all the time. That wasn’t a hard question, silly.

Simon: Not by our parents. By a boy!

Tabitha: Anthony kissed me once for a dare. It was so gross. He was eating tuna and he tasted really fishy. This was ages ago though.

Simon: I’m going to beat the shit out of him.

Tabitha: No, you won’t. We were kids and young. Don’t be a dick.

Simon: Do you want to be kissed?

Tabitha: Do you want to kiss me, Simon?

Simon: Yes, I’d really like that.

Dear Simon,

Happy birthday. I’m so sorry I missed your birthday. What are you? Old now lol. You’re thirteen, right? That must be totally awesome. You’re a teenager. How is everything with you? Did you have a good birthday? I’m sorry we couldn’t make it. I wanted to. Mom said we couldn’t as we didn’t have time to go. There’s always Thanksgiving. I know Angel is inviting you guys home. Are you looking forward to coming to Fort Wills?

Sorry about all the questions. I’m just so curious and you know Dad always watches me when we talk. I don’t know what his problem is. I’m your old lady, you would think he would be awesome about that. He never complains about anyone else. I don’t know. He keeps saying you’ll be with him over my dead body. He’s old, doesn’t he realize that you know, I’m younger? Lol.

Anthony has got it bad for Daisy. I heard Lash and Angel talking about him in the kitchen. When we were younger, like middle school, he would sit and listen to Daisy read to him. Whenever I’m at the clubhouse, I’ve seen him, Simon. He sits on a wall, and if Daisy’s near reading a book, which she always is, he will get her to read to him. Honestly, it’s crazy, and kind of weird, but I guess that is exactly what our families are like, weird. I think he’s totally going to ask her out. I’m rooting for them.

When I talk to Daisy about Anthony, she just shakes her head as if I’m the crazy one. I’m not. I still haven’t told her that Anthony is in love with her. I think a lot of people find Anthony weird because he doesn’t talk all that much. He stares. They don’t know him like I do. I see everything. Anything interesting happening on your end?

Take care, Simon.

Love you.

All yours,

Tabby.

Sweetest Tabby,

I had a great birthday. My dad’s teaching me how to fight. He says every man should know how to handle himself. I’ve told him what I want to be when I grow up, and he’s really happy about that. I told him you were my old lady, and he laughed. Said I’d understand what a lady is soon enough.

I heard one of the guys at school talking about a blowjob. Have you ever heard what one of those are? I’m scared to ask my dad. What if it’s one of those joke things that causes problems? I don’t want to be seen as not knowing. Do you know what it is? I don’t, and I can’t check it out online. Ever since I stumbled onto two girls kissing, Mom put some parental things on the computer. I can’t get on anything. Was Daisy able to get you a computer? I’m waiting for the text to let me know you’re online.
