Vinnie: Charlie still hasn't called? It's been like 2 weeks. He has to get over it sooner or later.

Vinnie watched me throw popcorn into my mouth listening to my story.

I've known him for my entire life. We had very few normal moments. This was one of them. Sitting on the floor with junk food gossiping. I mean this was usually something I did with Sienna but I rarely ever see her anymore. She's always so busy.. I mean I should be busy too. I've been skipping out on work and I need to keep my grades in check.

Vinnie: Hey um. I know you were supposed to take to a test last week. How did that go?
Yale: Fine.

Not fine. I failed. High school was a breeze. College is a whole other story.

Vinnie: So I was thinking. What if you and Case moved in with me and Mal.
Yale: What?
Vinnie: I mean we have the space. Why not?
Yale: I'll tell you why not. Cause we're adults Vinnie.
Vinnie: We're in college. It's normal to have roommates.
Yale: Not when those roommates are in our position. Things work the way they are, we should keep it that way.
Vinnie: Yale. You're about to flunk out of school and don't think I haven't noticed the lack of time you've been spending at work lately. You're going to get fired.
Yale: Vinnie I'm fine!
Vinnie: No you're not. You're stressed, overwhelmed and to be honest, you're looking pale as fuck.
Yale: I know. I'm fine Vin. I just- oh my god.

A familiar vomiting sensation appeared in my throat and I raced to the bathroom.

Vinnie: Holy shit. Are you okay?
Yale: I feel like shit.
Vinnie: Yale...
Yale: Vinnie...
Vinnie: You've been sick for a while now. Maybe you should go to the doctor or take a pregnancy test.

He mumbled the last part- But I heard him.

Yale: I'm not pregnant. I can't be pregnant.
Vinnie: Why not?
Yale: Cause.. well cause..
Vinnie: You need to take a test Yale.
Yale: What if I am?
Vinnie: You are using condoms right?
Yale: Well...
Vinnie: God dammit what is wrong with you?
Yale: I GET CAUGHT UP IN THE MOMENT!

Vinnie started to laugh.

Yale: What's so funny?
Vinnie: You should just stop having sex. Please.

I began laughing with him.

Yale: You wanna make a no sex pact.
Vinnie: Hell no. I'm in a committed relationship. Do it yourself.
Yale: It's no fun when you're alone.
Vinnie: Then call charlie and ask him to do it with you.

Vinnie pushed my shoulder and walked away.

Vinnie: You want some ginger ale?
Yale: Please.
