"oh yeah! go check on your little boyfriend lorelai."

"should i wear this top or this one?" maria questioned laurie, who was putting her mascara on. she stopped and looked towards her, there was a deep red tank top, with a black leather jacket to go over it. or a black laced tube top, and a blue jean jacket. laurie though for a moment, as maria held them both up to her top figure.
"the deep red, you know reds your color." laurie answered, adding her pink lipgloss to her lips. maria nodded and began to brush her hair out, throwing the outfit on her bed. there was loud knock on the door, and the two looked at each other confused. laurie opened the door slowly, but pulled it all the way open when she realized it was just saya.
"can i come in?" maria sighed, as laurie nodded. "i like this shirt better." saya picked up the black tube top. laurie giggled at how bad saya knew maria, because she knew that red looked better on her, not black.
"i'm wearing that one. is that what your wearing?" maria pointed to the red tank top, then to saya's black shirt and black leather jacket. saya nodded and took a seat on maria's bed.
"okay my turn. which one?" laurie asked the girl, laying out two different outfits. the first one was a sparkly silver crop top, with black leather jeans. and the other was ripped skinny jeans and pink long sleeve with the back cut out of it. (you can use this or you can picture her in whatever.)
"silver, it's more of the party type." maira said, saya nodding in agreement. laurie smiled and hung the other clothes back up.
"i saw you and marcus hugging after the quiz the other day, laurie." saya brought up. laurie smiled but quickly hid it, biting the inside of her cheek. "um yeah, i guess he was just happy we all made it out." maria scoffed at the girls answer, as saya hummed.
"i kissed him." saya blurted out, making the other two girls look at her. "twice." maria rolled her eyes, as laurie pursed her lips together, nodding her head. "yeah i mean, i had to get him to come back somehow." she continued talking. "and it just kinda happened the second time."
laurie turned back towards her reflection, going over her glossy lips one last time. "slut." laurie heard maria mutter. her eyes widened as she turned to look at saya, but the girl must have not heard her because she sat smiling at nothing. laurie assumed she was thinking about hers and marcus' kiss.
"you like him?" maria asked saya, who was now laying on her back. saya scoffed and brung herself back up. "as if." laurie laughed sarcastically. saya walked over to the girls' medicine table, picking up lauries anxiety medicine and then maria's bipolar disorder medicine.
"what's this?" she asked, shaking the bottles of pills. the two girls ran over to them, snatching them away from her. saya put her hands up by her head, and blew out a breath.
"its nothing." maria said. "it's about trust maria" saya said back, not worrying about laurie. maria scoffed and laurie sat on her bed, watching the scene unfold. maria knew that laurie has anxiety, that's why she doesn't smoke or do drugs. for laurie it only makes the anxiety worse. and laurie knew that maria was bipolar, and that's why she wouldn't break up with chico. because some days she hates him, but on others she loves him dearly.
