Cigarettes, Daydreams

Chapter 3

After the party, Ken flops down on his big gray bed. "I fucking hate gray" he mumbles into his pillow. Suddenly, his phone dings.

He opens the text, it's from Andrew Garfield, his best friend.

"Mate, i'm so sorry to tell you this, but Barbie is cheating on yew!!"

Andrew send a link to an Instagrand (knock off instagram) post. It shows a picture of barbie and *GASP!!!!* IS THAT HAROLD POTTER?????

They are grossly making out against a wall at the party HE was just at!! Ken turns on All Too Well (10 minute version (Taylor's version) (from the vault) and cries like a yassified hot girl into his gray pillow.

A few minutes later he gets a text from barbie.

"Hey babe, my parents arent home if you wanna come over"

Ken cries because he's mad at barbie but he still really loves her. He texts back:

"You cheater!!! I can't believe you cheated on me with Harold Potter he's a nerd who wear glasses!!!!!"

Ken cried himself to sleep as All Too Well plays on repeat in the background.

~the next day~

Ken walks up to his friends, Andrew, Tom, and Toby. His eyes are still red and puffy from crying so much the night before.

"How are you doing mate?" Tom asks. His boyfriend, the resident bad boy Harry Styles, has his arms wrapped around tom's waist.

"Bad lol" Ken replies, feeling even worse after seeing the happy couple. Sure Tom and Harry have their bad days, like that time Harry sold a bunch of cocaine to 7th graders and the time harry joined the mafia, but they were still in love.

Harry has a bunch of tattoos and a silver lip piercing and ken thinks, if i were a girl i would find him hot. Wait, maybe i find him hot anyways???????? (Same)

"Well, there are plenty of fish in the sea my dude bro" Toby says.

"Thanks Toby, want to head to class with me?" Ken replies right as the bell rings. Toby nods and they say goodbye to everyone else as they turn away and walk down the hall towards math class. Ken sees random people give him sympathetic looks. He sees Barbie right outside his Math class, since they have the same class, and dreadfully, he sits right next to her.

"Hey ken, can we talk?" Barbie asks once she puts her bubblegum pink notebook on the desk. Instead of replying, Ken looks the other way and sees Ryan. His brown shaggy hair is rough against the morning sunlight pouring through the windows, and his brown eyes glow golden as he enters the class.

"Hey, Ryan!" Ken stands up. They need to talk about their Anatomy project anyways. "Do you want to come over to my house again after school? We need to finish our anatomy project."

"Ughhhh okay"

"Mr. Dilf said it was due tomorrow soooo."

"Mr. Dilf is weird," Ryan replies, with a disgusted look on his face, "But yeah ill be there, I need to go to the grocery story first tho"

The bell rings, signaling class to start, and the teacher yells, "Alright students! Take your seats."

Ken slouches all the way back to his desk and faces completely away from barbie, ignoring all her whispers and pokes as he tries to take his notes.

At the end of the day, Ken gets into his Lamborghini (because he's rich) and drives home to his mansion. He changes into sweats and scrolls through his phone, listening to Red (Taylor's Version) until he hears the doorbell ring.

"Hey Ryan!" Ken says as he opens the door.

"Hey" ryan replies grumpily, "So how do we do this."

"Well we should probably start over because ours is way too big." Ken says. He pulls out a sketchbook and starts to draw a dick.

"So how big should it be?" Ryan asks, weirded out.

"Idk, a foot???"

"A foot??? I thought it was supposed to be accurate." Ryan says.

"Is that not...accurate?" Ken replies, confused.

"Um—" Ryan stutters, "Youre shitting me right??"

Ken bursts into laughter, "HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH OF COURSE I AM WHOS DICK IS A FOOT LONG LMFAOOOOO"

"Omg okay good i was getting concerned," Ryan replies, almost laughing with Ken.

After Ken stops laughing, he pulls out his history textbook from 9th grade and starts ripping out the pages. "We can use this to make it," Ken says while throwing the paper into a pile.

"Ok"

After a few hours of paper macheing Ken orders chipotle, and to his surprise, Ryan is a vegan. He gets a lifestyle bowl with only beans and lettuce while Ken gets a burrito with steak, cheese, and hot sauce.

"Omg im soooo bored this is taking forever" Ryan comments after he finishes his bowl.

"Do you wanna put on a movie?" Ken asks.

Ryan nods his head and ken turns on the TV and plays The Bee Movie. He turns up the volume and sits on the couch, throwing a blanket over his lap. "This is my favorite movie" Ken says.

"No wonder barbie cheated on you," Ryan mutters under his breath, just quiet enough so Ken cant hear. In just a few minutes, Ken is already sound asleep to the sound of Berry B. Benson saying "ya like jazz?" Ryan smiles softly at kens soft face before he literally vomits on the floor at the thought of ken as his boyfriend. He cleans the vomit up and falls on the couch of Kens living room exhausted. And after a few minutes, hes asleep, and—against his will—in Ken's arms.
