say you'll remember me

standing in a nice dress

staring at the sunset babe

taimoor, altea and margarette all sat together in the janitor's closet. taimoor and margarette in one corner, scrambling to get their biology homework (literally due next period), and altea in another, simply in her own little world.

"this is why you shouldn't procrastinate." altea scoffed, "amateurs."

"ugh, be quiet! i had a lot to do last weekend, ok? i didn't have time ..." taimoor trailed off, looking even more perplexed because of his biology work than before he started.

"i'm just helping him because its funny to see him so confused." margarette scrunched her nose and folded her arms, looking down on taimoor as if he were her child and he just gave her the ugliest drawing ever, and now she has to pretend she likes it.

"oh damn, same! it was nice to see you that other night-" altea began.

"ANYWAYS-" margarette cut her off, eyes widening. "after school, do you guys wanna go out or something? i heard there's a new frozen yoghurt place in the community, we should go."

tapping her chin, altea pondered. "it depends ... is it expensive?"

"i mean you're paying for us to share one – taimoor get your own."

"yeah taimoor, get your own."

"I- I DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY THOUGH-" taimoor screeched.

"ok ... and? do we look like we give a fuck?"

"ok ... and? you're so stumped about her and for what?"

"i've literally gotten anybody i could've ever wanted – is she not like, aware of my presence?" alex hushed under his breath. kealan simply sat on a beanbag in the corner, quickly typing on a laptop. jonny on the other hand was over at the closet, organizing the owner's clothing in a color-coded system.

what? alex's room was messy ok? you don't really have the time to clean when you're out there wiping someone clean of their purity.

"dude. you've just gotta accept that MAYBE she's not into you." kealan rolled his eyes, looking up from his laptop. "she literally told you to go away the other day. remember? when you tried to wink-"

"okay look – winking may NOT be my thing but getting what i want is kind of my whole schtick." alex ripped off his jacket and threw it on his 'expensive linen drawn bed'- eww.

"jamison is still an option." jonny peaked from the pile of clothes he had stationed in front of him.

"i don't like him. too gay to function, too straight to do anything right."

"i thought went for anybody-"

"yeah, but like ... tits ..."

"you're disgusting." kealan murmured.
