You Never Go Full Meme Novels & Stories

Deep beneath the bustling Diamond District lay the "Under-Grid" bar, a hidden spot filled with booming bass and swirling violet mist.

“We’ve played basketball. Shared memes. He’s actually pretty funny, you know, when he’s not brooding.” My eyes shot toward Damon, who finally let a small smile slip. My stomach betrayed me with a tiny, traitorous flutter that I crushed down immediately. I folded my arms, trying to look unimpressed. “I cannot believe this. Nate, you don’t even respond to my texts half the time, and yet him—” I jabbed a thumb toward Damon, “—you’re swapping memes with like it’s some sacred bromance?” Nate had the audacity to look thoughtful. “Well, he replies faster.”
