Industry || Pete Wentz

Chapter 7

The walk to the bowling alley was eventful, Pete and I kept nudging each other that he ended up falling into the road and nearly getting ran over by an angry fat man. I was lacing up my bowling shoes whilst Pete went to get drinks.

"I got you a lemonade?" Pete comes over with a beer and a lemonade, his bowling shoes pad along the wooden floors.

"Why do I look too girly to handle a beer?" I raise a brow at him whilst I sip my lemonade.

"N-No, I just have seen you with a glass of lemonade before." He shrugs before going to the bowling alley he picked. I could see in my corner of my eye a group of girls pointing and giggling at us. They were secretly taking pictures of us, like I didn't know.

"Piloet is canon." I heard one of them giggle to her friend.

"Did you hear that Vi, we are canon." Pete sniggers, which causes me to snort aloud, I pick up the cyan bowling bowl after punching in my name with the stiff buttons on the machine. I launch it down the alley, getting a strike first time.

"Ready for me to kick your ass again Wentz?" I giggle before going to sit on the cushioned seat.

"I don't think I could take that mentally." He sighs before rolling his black and red bowling ball down the alley, he only knocked down seven pins. He picks up just the jet black ball and launches it down the alley knocking down 1 pin.

"Wow Pete, not your best." I tut before getting up and picking up the indigo bowling ball and pausing for a moment thinking of the best way to do it. I grab the child frame they use for help and push the ball down the alley, it knocks down 9 pins, I giggle, turning around to Pete smirking.

"How can you do better with me with the frame?" Pete rolls his eyes before handing me another bowling ball, I push it down the frame and knocks the last pin down. I push the frame away and it makes this horrible screeching sound, Pete goes up with his black and red bowling ball but as he is about to throw it, he launches it backwards, I duck so it doesn't knock me out. He slips and falls right on his ass and the ball crashes and puts a big ass hole in the wall behind us.

Pete's innocent face was hilarious, I was clutching my side laughing that I literally fell on the floor beside him. The annoying girls were laughing then I realised they had filmed the whole thing. They were useful for something, after all.

"You look pretty with a smile." Pete smiles, I immediately frown, did he seriously just say that?

"Uhm thanks?" I sheepishly smile, tucking a strand piece of hair behind my ear.

"Come on lets get out of here before I get fined for that wall." Pete grins before helping me up, I hear the girls aw, I really want to slip them the finger but I'd get in trouble off management.

"What about our shoes?"

"Hey you lovely couple." Pete runs up to this average looking couple, they look at him with disgust.

"If I paid you, would you please get my friend and I's shoes, it's just that I put a hole in the wall and we don't want to get fined." Pete nervously chuckles.

"You don't have to pay us son, just give us your shoes." I slip off my shoes and hand them to the lady, they go up to the booth and get our shoes.

"Thank you so much." I say before Pete grabs our wrist when the security points at us. We run through the shopping mall and out of the bowling alley. Security chase us as we carry our shoes.

"Somebody stop those kids!" The man shouts, I just start laughing  before picking up speed to catch up to Pete, he still has hold of my hand but I'm going slower so I'm slowing us down.
