"What are you screaming at me for," I said as the elevator stopped
"I don't know. Maybe because there's a potentially poisonous gas in my lab and IT'S YOUR FAULT!" he yelled as we walked out
"COME ON IT WAS AN ACCIDENT. WHY THE HELL ARE YOU BEHAVING LIKE THIS?" I yelled back now complete irritated as we walked back to the house
"DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT'S GOING TO TAKE ME TO GET RID OF THAT SMOKE?!" He yelled
"CAN'T YOU JUST SUCK UP THE GAS?!" I yelled back
"AND PUT IT WHERE?" He yelled
"YOU'RE UNDERGROUND JUST PUT IT THERE" I yelled back
"Whatever Vanderbilt," he said realizing I had a point as he began walking away
"What's your problem, Taylor. I've been trying to be nice to you all day but all you've been doing is behaving like a jerk" I said
"What's my problem? What's your problem. First of all, we haven't even said hi to each other in god knows how long, and now you just want to come back and pretend that everything is fine" he ranted angrily
"Look I know we've been out of touch for a while but all I'm trying to do is be a good friend and we're lab partners we have to talk to each other," I said
"Maybe you should stop. Maybe I don't want your friendship. Just because we're lab partners doesn't mean we're friends" he said turning away from me
"Wow Taylor I thought your ego would have shrunk along with your head but I guess not," I said
"Why does every time we argue you have to result to insults?" he said
"Maybe because-" I said before both our stomachs growled.
We stood there silently and embarrassed before breaking out into laughter
"Okay okay. Let's call a truce" he said
"Fine do you have anything to eat around here?" I asked as he went into the kitchen with me following and opened the fridge
"Nothing but last night dinner," he said
"Which was?" I asked
"Blackberry pie," he said
"I'm allergic to blackberry, remember," I said
"Oh yeah, I forgot. So what? We order food?" he asked
"Isn't there anything to cook in there?" I asked
"Um nope," he said closing the fridge awkwardly fast
"You sure," I said skeptically
"Yep," he said moving away
"And if I said you were lying," I said walking towards the fridge
"Why would I lie?" he asked sweating as he jumped in front of the fridge door
"Maybe because the young genius can't cook," I said
"Are you kidding, of course, I can cook" he lied
"Then you wouldn't mind moving out of the way," I said
"Um...no," he said nervously
"Then why aren't you moving?" I asked with a cheeky smile
"Because I don't want you to release all the cold air," he said grabbing tightly
"I didn't want to do this but you leave me no choice," I said as I smiled rising my hands up
"You wouldn't," he said before I started tickling him
