It's 11:55 on a Saturday and I'm watching Grays anatomy season 8, eating Ben and Jerry's and waiting for when I can leave for Wilburs house in my red t-shirt, gray sweatpants and purple painted nails until a knock turns my head towards the door. Oh? Okay.

I get up to open the door and instantly I want to close it again.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I spit. Amy, Kyle and Oliver are standing on my doorway, as if yesterday didn't happen.
"To hang out?" Amy says. I can still see the mark my hand left on her.
"I slapped you," I point at her, "and left you alone in schools parking lot." I finish, pointing at Kyle.
"Look, you got mad yesterday, and that's okay! C'mon let us in. Let's watch grays anatomy!" Oliver protests. I audibly laugh. Cold.
"No. Get off my lawn." I spit. "I dont want to hang out with you. Not today." Kyle sighs.
"Tomorrow?" He says, hopeful.
"We'll see." I say, closing the door.

After yesterday I've had plenty of time to think about what kind of friends I have and the more I think about it, the more I regret even speaking to them in the first place.

Here's a list:

1. On my birthday last year, I had to BEG them to come to my house. (It wasn't even a huge party. We literally just went to eat out and hang out at the mall.)

2. They're the reason I drank for the first (and last) time even though I'm very much against alcoholic drinking.

3. They're not supportive at all.
• They repeatedly remind me how little of a chanceI have with Sap.
• They call my dream of being a Twitch streamer "a joke", etc etc

4. They never stand up for me even though I've done it for them countless times. (Plus, they stand up for each other, just not me.)

The list could be endless. So, I've officially decided to try and befriend the "popular kids". Even if it means our friendship is just outside of school.
Speaking off, the time shows 12:57! Definitely going to get ready to leave.

After a few minutes I'm ready to leave, so I grab my green jacket and run down the stairs. I spot the brown building almost straight away.
I take a deep breath and open the door.
"Wilbur?" I call out.
"Karl! You're the first one here!" He says cheerfully as he approches me.
"Yo!" I laugh. 
"Let me show the living room!" I follow him into the house.

After a little tour of the house (mainly living room) we're sitting around the coffee table with snacks ready for a "group night" as Wilbur called it.
"When are the others going to be here?" I ask, screwing on a mars bar.
"Oh soon, it's 13:27, so any minute now." And as if the man was Jesus, a knock was heard from the hallway. "Told you!" I laugh as he gets up to open the door. "Oh Jesus, hello y'all." I hear Wilbur say. Two minutes later he comes back in with the whole group coming in along with him.
"Karl!!" they yell in unison.
"Hey guys!" I laugh, standing up to hug them. They all gladly hug me back. When I reach Sapnap, his face is loses color, but I smile at him, and bow down. "Good day to you too, sir." I smile up at him.

His face is the brightest thing I've ever seen. He smiles so wide I worry his cheekbones are breaking. He bows down to me in response.
"As well as you, sir." he teases.
I look back at the group and they're the happiest I've seen them. I can tell I'll fit right with these adorable dorks.

This chapter is shorter then the others, and im sorry :( next one will be longer !!
