AUGUST IS INNOCENT. She just got sucked into a very unfortunate situation

(A thread that makes me feel very sad for her)

Okay we’re about go get deep into the relationships between James, Betty and August. Bear with me...
In my mind, August doesn’t go to the same school as James and Betty. (ie why she asks if he’ll call when he’s back at school). Similar to the premise of Grease, August and James shared a SUMMER LOVE.
Thus, they spend the end of summer together (the month of AUGUST). I like to think they met at their families’ summer homes and spent all their time together. She was totally in love and thought he was the 1.
Meanwhile, Betty was at home calling James every night. This is where the “slept next to her but I dreamt of you all summer long,” comes along. He slept next to August ON VACATION as he was still in a relationship with Betty, his hometown girlfriend.
So as August fell more and more in love, James continued to lead her on. She was head over heels, saying us with James. She had no idea he had a girl at home because there was never any mention of her.
So flash forward to the end of the month, August has slipped away and they part ways. James thinks he’s gonna get away with his summer romance. He goes back home and starts bragging about his “score” at the skate park.
However, as he’s talking about it, Inez happens to walk by. And even though she’s known for being a gossip, she felt like Betty needed to know the TRUTH immediately.
So Inez goes to Betty and together they find August online. They find photos of her and James and message her about it.
August is shocked. James never mentioned Betty. There wasn’t a trace of her anywhere on his phone. She comes to find out that everything he ever told her was fake. His faithless love was the only hoax she’d believed in.
August remains heartbroken. She’s persistent in resisting the urge to text him. And even though he broke her, she still lets herself wonder what it would’ve been like if he had been the one from time to time.
END OF THREAD
Okay, I truly have myself convinced that August was an innocent victim of James’ dark, twisted games. She and Betty both deserve so much better.
