GIRLFRIEND // B.E

twelve.

"zay!"

it's currently the time between second and third block. people are either rushing through the halls to get to their class, or taking their sweet time. there was a line to the girls' bathroom that went way into the hallway, while the guys' bathroom had no line at all.

i turned around. i smiled as i saw that it was billie. "hi, bil; what's up?"

"hi," she caught up to me with a smile. she took a glance at my outfit. "warm enough?" she chuckled.

i was wearing one of her hoodies that i totally didn't steal, with leila's letterman jacket over it; i don't even know why i've been so cold today, but it is what it is.

"yes," i playfully flipped her off. "did you need something though?"

"yeah; me and you are skipping," she decided with a grin as she wrapped an arm around my shoulders.

i raised a brow. "to do what?"

"you'll see."

"it better be worth it," i threatened jokingly. "i'm risking not being exempt from exams to do it."

"it will be," she assured with a nod. we were able to walk right out since it was during class change; we'd just look like seniors with early release. "and if it's not, you'll be fine; you're smart enough to make an 'a' and then your absences won't even matter. you'll automatically be exempt."

"well, yeah, but that's not the point," i giggled.

she scrunched her nose up. "whatever."

we walked to her car. she opened the passenger door for me. she waited until i was situated until she closed the door, and then walked around the front of the car to get into the driver's seat.

"so... can i know where we're going now?" i asked after she drove for a bit.

"nope," she popped the 'p' with a shit eating grin on her face. i let out an overly dramatic groan as i let my head fall back against the headrest.

"oh my god, hell yeah!" my eyes widened as i saw that billie had brought me to an arcade. "come on, hurry up!" i grabbed her hand to quickly pull her inside.

"calm down, mama, sheesh," she laughed as she trailed closely behind me. she didn't try to pull her hand away; she just let me hold it.

once we were inside, we bought cards to use at the machines and everything.

"what do you wanna do first?" bil asked as she raised a brow.

"i saw pac-man on the way over here; i wanna beat your ass in that," i grinned.

"hey, don't get too cocky now. i used the beat fin's ass in pac-man all the time," she told me as she grabbed my hand this time to pull me towards it. "beating you will be no different," she smirked.

"oh, you wanna bet?" i gave her a look.

"yeah, i do. if i win, you gotta give me one of my hoodies back; you know, my favorite one that you stole."

"i didn't steal it," i huffed. "okay though. and if i win, then i get to keep it, and i get to pick out another one of your's." i nodded with a big grin.

"you're on," she challenged.

"i'm literally not gonna have any more hoodies because of you."
