#HoldenDanversInLoveOrMadness
It’s a foggy day in Springvale, Indiana when #HT looks at the photos spread out on the desk in the shed that has been converted to a makeshift office. The shots were taken from a camera that makes it seem like the person taking the photos is right next to the couple even though they had to be at least several feet away to remain inconspicuous while taking them. Technology is a powerful tool. Like any other tool, in the hands of the wrong person, it brings disaster. But the thing about power is once you get a taste of it, you can’t go back. #HT knew the community of Springvale was living on every word typed in hashtag that appeared on the website. And now, looking at Holden Danvers’ face along with that of another socialite old enough to be his mother, #HT knows he has something juicy enough for the online tabloid to get enough hits for the sponsors to keep coming.
#HT begins typing…
They say that love is madness.
No one knows this better than Holden Danvers.
It has been brought to the attention of the Hashtag staff that the sole heir of the Danvers Empire, aka the resident bad boy, is suffering from the same disease that has been driving people to madness for centuries. But should we feel bad for the rich, spoilt, brat who has done nothing but break hearts for years? #HT wants to know what you think so as usual leave your comments and responses. #HoldenDanversInLoveOrMadness
#HT sits back in his seat and admires his handiwork.
The post will go live the minute a firm decision to alter Holden’s fate has been made. The pictures along with the hashtag—it wouldn’t be long before Danvers will become top-quality gossip among school kids and PTA meetings—a mother’s worst nightmare, her twenty-two year old college-age son having an affair with a woman not only old enough to be his mother, but who also happens to be an actual acquaintance of his mother. #HT wonders how Mrs. Danvers, the self-proclaimed Queen of Springvale would handle this news.
God, these people are dumb.
But if they weren’t #HT wouldn’t have had enough fodder for the masses.
These people who thought they were so powerful, so fucking perfect, bringing them down will be more fun than #HT ever imagined it would be.
#HT laughs at the prospect.
#HT hits PUBLISH.
