The weeknd- try me
———————————————————————— The first thing Lilith saw when she woke up, was a grinning rue staring down at her. She felt a gentle shake on her shoulder, making her groan, as she sleepily swatted the older girl away.
"Oh my god wake the fuck upppppp lils, I wanna go buy drugs and I need company." Rue whined, making Lilith's eyebrows knit together into a frown.
"Okay? Why the fuck do u need me for that, what about Cassie or one of the others?" She grumbled, barely even registering the current conversation.
"Because, they're all shitheads and wouldn't come with me. Well, lex is coming but I want you to come too, you barely know fez or ash and I want you to get to know them better!" Rue grabbed her arm, dragging her off the bed.
"Ughhh what the fuck rue." Lilith groaned, sprawled across the floor before giving in. She knew the girl wouldn't stop nagging her, so she picked herself up, and trudged slowly towards one of her suitcases.
She pulled out all her clothes, rummaging around before finding an outfit she wanted to wear (pictured on cover photo, if u don't like it you can imagine she's wearing something else).
She looked over at Lexi's alarm clock, rolling her eyes as it read 11:13am. She walked into her shared bathroom, locked the door, had her usual 25 minute shower and got out before doing her makeup and hair and getting dressed.
As she walked out the bathroom, rue looked at her, the older girls mouth suddenly hanging open.
"What...?" Lils asked, cocking a brow in confusion at the elder.
"Nothing nothing, just damn!! Ashtrays gonna love this." She snickered, before standing up and handing Lilith her shoes, the younger disregarding the stupid comment as she barely knew him.
"C'mon kid, we're going now. I've waited long enough." Rue grinned, waiting impatiently for Lilith to pull her shoes on before grabbing her arm and dragging her downstairs and out the door before lilith could even speak to her housemates.
Lils and Rue spent around 10 minutes walking before they reached a little shop. It was white, kinda small but not too small, with a big sign on top with "milk" wrote in red on it. There was only one car parked outside, Lils assuming it was fezco's, and a few other signs around here and there that she didn't take the time to read.
As they walked in, Lilith could hear music playing quietly from somewhere, and she saw a familiar ginger sitting on a counter next to a till with shelves of cigarettes, rolling papers and filters stacked behind him.
"Yoooo fez!" Rue grinned, instantly walking to the man and giving him a hug.
"Sup kid." He mumbled, a small smile tugging at his lips before he looked over at Lilith and nodded a bit to her. "Yo, you the new girl right?"
"Uh, yeah. Hi." She smiled, waving a bit to him, making him wave back.
"Yo is ash out back?" Rue asked, turning fezco's attention back to her.
"You serious? Didn't you just get out of rehab what, 5 fuckin days ago?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. He'd seen her the day before, sure, but she was too high for him to even bother wanting to speaking to her.
"What you think that jus cuz I went to rehab I stayed clean?" She chuckled, rolling her eyes.
"I mean, ain't that the point?" Lilith asked, cocking her head slightly. Rue and fez looked at her in unison, fez nodding in agreement.
"Ahh well, the worlds coming to an end and I haven't even graduated highschool yet." Rue threw her arms out as she walked backwards towards the coolers.
Lilith followed her, giving fez one last smile before entering a secret little room with rue.
She looked ahead of her, seeing the same boy from yesterday sat in a chair, with a tub full of cereal, munching away.
He looked up, eyes landing on rue before he put the makeshift bowl down and clearing his throat. "Not gonna lie, I thought yo ass was dead." He said, a cocky smile appearing on his face.
"And I thought you had Asperger's before I realised you're just a prick." Rue bit back, sarcasm laced in her tone.
Lilith bit her bottom lip hard to hold back a laugh as she stood to the left of rue.
"This is a fickle industry. Y'all come and go. I'm jus tryna stack my cash, pay off my mortgage, so what the fuck you want." He said, opening the microwave beside him and pulling out a bowl full to the brim with drugs.
Rue narrowed her eyes at him before they struck a conversation about what she wanted, the boy who was presumably called ash introducing her to a bunch of new shit.
Lilith had zoned out, looking around and taking in her surroundings while ignoring the other two.
"Yo, new girl," Lilith was brought back to her senses by a slight shout from the boy opposite them. "You want anything?" He asked her, making her think for a second before nodding.
"An eighth, please." She mumbled, hands shoved in her pockets as she watched him rummage around to get her what she wanted.
He passed it over, hand brushing hers as she took it and nodded as a thankyou to him. His eyes lingered on her figure for a few seconds before he turned to rue with a deadpanned expression.
"That'll be 140." He muttered.
"Fez said he'd spot us."
"Fez don't spot nobody." The boy raised an eyebrow, instantly sensing the lie.
"Fuckin ask him I dunno." Rue mumbled before turning to leave.
"Yeah I will ask him because I know you're full of shit." He bit back, watching as she left.
Lilith turned to him and smiled a bit, pulling a $20 bill out of her pocket and holding it out to him.
He stared at her hand for a few seconds, before looking up at her face and shaking his head a bit, pushing her hand back gently with his own. "Nah, don't worry about it ma. You can have it free, since it's your first time and you're new around here."
She was slightly taken aback by the nickname, but smiled at him nonetheless. She put the bill on the table in front of her before winking, turning to leave. "Bye pretty boy." She said as she left the back room. She didn't know where that sudden confidence had sparked from but she sure as hell liked it.
As she was about to leave the shop, she was stopped by a hand holding her arm, she turned and saw fez stood in front of her.
"Yo, kid, I know I barely know you and all that bullshit but just be careful wit rue. She could end up getting you into some serious shit with her addictions." He mumbled, and she noticed that he seemed to have a pretty slow talking pace and eyes that always seemed spaced out, as if he was always revolving in the complete opposite direction to earth.
She just smiled and gently pulled her arm out of his grip as she left. She appreciated the concern, but little did he know, she was on some hard shit back in New York, and she was here partially because she was constantly getting herself into trouble with dealers out there too.
"I think ashtray is taking a liking to you. He doesn't look at people the way he looked at u in there." Rue giggled, as Lilith caught up to her, walking alongside her down the path.
"Whatever." The younger chuckled, acting as if she didn't care. But deep down, she couldn't help but feel her stomach do a little summersault at the comment.
Authors note: This is such a bullshit chapter I am so sorry 🤣😭 anyway. I'll update again later today hopefully, but I'm getting a random spur of writers block at the moment. Love u <3
