billie eilish. famous, cold and emotionless… but despite it all, for you, her heart can melt. her eyes soften and her voice turns gentler. you’re not her girlfriend, just her best friend… but everyone can see it. even you, you’re not blind. the way her hands are always on you, the way she texts you every morning and every night, the way she lays on you after a long day of recording and the way she seeks your affection like a kitten. it’s for your eyes only, for the rest of the world, she’s cold.

15th of may 2019

it’s a warm spring day, you’re hanging out with your friends in front of the campus. your little group laughing and sharing stories after a long day of school. you’re all popular, the classic girls. beautiful, loved, wanted… but despite it all, your heart is only for her. all the boys on campus, all the guys who ask for you, are nothing compared to your silver-haired girl.

you’re lost in thoughts of her when suddenly, a friend taps your shoulder.

mia : “isn’t it your sweetheart?”

you turn around… only to see her, your billie. leaning back against her dodge challenger, oversized outfit draped effortlessly, arms crossed, fingers heavy with big rings. she’s wearing chains and a bandana, her clothes all designer. she’s watching you. maybe for a minute, maybe for an hour. she could spend days just watching you, doing nothing else…

you can’t help but smile when you see her. she’s here… she came to pick you up from school. you love when she does that, it makes you feel like a princess. you wave at her, grinning, and get up, saying goodbye to your friends before trotting happily toward her.
