Partners In Time (Life Is Strange Fan-fiction)

8) Max Gots No Time

-Max-
I slowly made my way back to my dorm thinking about this actually pretty cool day. As I made my way to the dorm from the gate I saw a familiar face.

"Hey Max! Get over here, please." Warren said waving at me.

"Hey Warren were you waiting for me?" I asked meeting up with him.

"Yeah but I just got here don't worry."

"Oh okay do you need something?"

"Uh yeah I was meaning to ask you. If you wanted to go with me to a drive in? Let's go ape!" Warren said in his nerd voice.

"Oh when?"

"This weekend? We don't have class so I thought it was perfect timing."

"Uh ye-" I was cut off bye my phone ringing. It was Chloe.

"Sorry Warren I have to take this." I said stepping to the side.

"Oh yeah it's cool." Warren said looking down.

I turned around so that my back was towards him.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Maxwell. You get it cause Blackwell and that's where you are."

"Yes I get it you dork what's wrong? Miss me already?" I teased.

"Oh yeah I've been away from you for a few minutes and I've been going crazy!" She said sarcastically.

"Okay what's up really?" I asked.

"Well Joyce and David Dickhead want to go out of town this weekend and I need a excuse to stay here so can that excuse can be you?" Chloe asked through the phone.

"This weekend?" I asked taking a brief glance at Warren. He was looking at me till I looked back then he looked back down at the floor.

"Yes Maximus I rather spend my weekend with my sick tricked out best friend then with them. Please keep me from tearing his head off." Chloe pleaded.

"Okay okay I'll hang with you." I stated. How could I say no?

"Sweet. I'll let the bloodsuckers know that I'm busy."

"Okay. Bye."

"Later."

I hung up the phone before awkwardly turning around.

"So I'm guessing that's a no." Warren said disappointed.

"Sorry Warren I just got in touch with my best friend from my child hood and I can't bail on them again." I said.

I only left her for 5 years so...

I said sarcastically in my head like it wasn't a big deal.

"Max it's cool I understand." Warren said his voice not matching his words.

"I'm sorry Warren."

"Max really it's fine."

"Okay..." We stood there in silence before he said something.

"So who was that blue haired girl from earlier she looked pretty punk rock."

Bad question Warren.

"Oh that's Chloe... Chloe Price I haven't seen her in 5 years...she's my best friend." I answered.

"Oh she's the person your going to hang out with this weekend?" he asked curious.

"Yeah..."

"Oh good." He said sighing in relief.
