like a railroad

012

I laughed, sitting in the back of Aaron's car, eating a bag of lime chips. We were watching The Maze Runner, and Aaron had just finished his five minute rant on why Vinnie is a bitch and didn't deserve me anyway.

We were parked on the side of the road, next to a strawberry field, and the sun was making a big, cloud shaped shadow roll over the road.

"He was hot though." I smirked, watching Dylan O'Brien run around a corner on the screen.

"He was a beauty wasn't he."

buddy switches up fast.

I let out a cackle that I would have been embarrassed of, if I was with anyone other than my cousin.

He looked up at me from his phone, horrified by my strange laugh, before erupting into a laugh as well. 

"Bruh, lets go back home, I don't want to get you high off of laughter." Aaron was like Soda-Pop from the Outsiders that way. He was able to get drunk off of just plain old living life.

That was one of my favorite things about him.

"Fair, fair." He turned off his phone and switched the car into drive, putting on Tungs, by the Frights. And pulling back onto the countryside road.

...

When we got back home, I plugged my phone in, which had died quickly from me watching Outer Banks all morning in a coffee shop.

The little white apple illuminated the black screen, before switching to my lock screen which had over 24 texts and 12 missed calls.

I unlocked my phone to see that they were mostly from one person...

Vinnie.

I checked my texts.

I sighed, reading all the texts I realized a few things.

1- buddy was sloppy drunk
2- he needed better autocorrect
3- he was sorry?

Strange list, but effective.

I closed messages and opened phone, calling Emily. She picked up on the second ring.

El: Guess who just texted me
Em: Vinnie
El: How'd you guess... no fun
Em: Because he just texted me a million times too
El: He's so dumb
Em: Honestly
El: Anyways how is your day going?
Em: Pretty boring
*silence*
Em: do you wanna go save his ass from public humiliation
El: Yes, but I don't know why... he was a total dumbass
Em: I'll pick you up in 15
El: bye em
Em: bye el
