My Stories from Fanfiction by Erin Anne

thanks so much
for the facebook
invite to
your party

wish i could
make it out but i
“have a family thing”

oh what? family thing?
um it’s my great
grandma’s birthday

she’d be so sad
if i missed it
i mean a lot to her she’s
so old

don’t ask me about it again because i
can’t back up my story
my great grandma died when i was ten
but you never have to know that, do you? DO YOU?

yes i’d love
to do drinks any
night this week
but not tonight

i feel so sick
suddenly
it’s that
“cold that’s going around”
jen at work
you know her
she just has the worst
cough these days

i die inside
when she hacks
and now look
i’m coughing too what
irony!

don’t ask me about it again because i
can’t back up my story
I'm feeling fine and I don't work with a jen
but you never have to know that, do you? DO YOU?

Master of deception
I forgot to mention,

being seen at your apartment will not make up for the terror
that is setting foot outside and being crushed by social pressure
it’s a terrifying notion, what if i end up alone
what if i have to make small talk (beat)
what if i lose my phone

I’m gonna irish exit
Even if you are my best friend

don't ask me about it again because I
Can't back up my story
I don’t remember anything that i said
but you never have to know that, do you? DO YOU?
