Mike

i watched as will hugged him back after he said that.

wow i fucked up.

maybe i should just wait for them to fall apart, or i can make them fall apart.

nevermind it sounds psychopathic , but is it so insane it'll actually work?

no, just insane.

"hey mike, what are you staring at they left like 2 minutes ago"

i shooed her away turning back at her to give her a nasty glare,

"shut up el im thinking"

"if you become a mass murderer im not bailing you out"

"no shit your dad's probably gonna arrest me before even committing murder"

"mike, let it go"

i turn to her in confusion, i thought she liked me, liked us together.

"im not saying you need to forget about him but he's full on dating a guy now"

"that's the thing, el"

.

i have a shift today, i mean could you really blame me for not being able to think clearly after today.

but this is one of the only shifts i have with max, were close.

we definitely pretend we hate eachother but we are, very close. were so close that i still feel distant enough that she'll ask me about will.

or what i did to him.

a usual thursday morning was tense with ease, but today was just tense. with the usual sound of coffee grinding in the background, and the creak of the door greeting. but of course max just had to come at this moment.

i mean she is late, again but thats not exactly the point.

"hey sorry im late"

"wow where were you making out with lucas"

"no actually, i was with will"

if only you could hear her tone, i didnt know what to say. no, i didnt want to say anything. but the only thing you could really do is play dumb.

"what were you talking about?"

"you"

i turned to her with my shoulder tensing up,

"theres a customer, ill go take their order"

"mike-"

"we'll talk about it later max"

i scurried off as i left the counter, and max. though i wasnt as close i could still here her sigh as she unpacked her things.

Will

"hey,"
