AS MAZIE WALKED BACK TO HER house, she stopped where she was as she realized that she had completely forgotten to get her dad's cigarettes and that she gave all her money to Vance.
Not wanting to get screamed at by her dad, she turned back around and jogged towards the store.
Mazie walked into the store, making her way over to the candy aisle. She picked out a bag of gummy worms and then headed over to the cashier. She placed the candy on the counter.
"Will that be all?" The lady asks.
"Yeah! And uh, I think you dropped some change on the ground from that last person." Mazie answered.
"Oh, thanks dear." The lady takes her eyes off Mazie and looks for the change. Mazie took her chance and quickly slipped a pack of cigarettes up her sleeve.
"I didn't see any change?" The lady looks at Mazie, confused.
"Oh sorry, I must've been seeing things! Also, I've changed my mind about the candy. Not that hungry anyways. Bye!" Mazie said quickly.
As Mazie walked out of the store, someone pulled her back by her book bag.
"What the- Jesus, Vance?" The girl sighs in relief once she sees the boy.
"Yeah. Why the fuck are you stealing cigarettes?" He questions, confused why a girl like her would be stealing, especially since she was stealing cigarettes.
"First off, I'm like, broke and have no money on me. Second, they aren't for me, they're for my dad. I was supposed to get them and almost forgot, so here I am." She answers. "And I don't smoke. I hate those stupid cancer sticks." Vance rolled his eyes when she said that.
"Yeah, okay, but why not just get them tomorrow or something? You could get caught you dipshit." He flicks her on the forehead.
"Well, I don't really feel like getting yelled at by my dad. Also, I don't wanna turn into some stupid like you, coming to this stupid store every day." She replies sarcastically, swatting his hand away.
He scoffs, "You're already stupid, you asshat."
"Uhm, no, I am not! You literally never even show up to class." She rolled her eyes when he stays silent.
"Right, so, I'll be on my way. Cya!" Mazie pats his shoulder and then starts to walk off.
Vance just stares at her weirdly as she walks away. "What the fuck." He breathes out.
Vance stood there for a second before jogging up to her.
Mazie looked over at him and laughed. "Just couldn't stay away from me, huh Hopper?" She said sarcastically.
