tw: swearing and idk

here's a poem i wrote during school

during 1st period, i listen to music the entire time

i feel like doing chemistry during 2nd period should be a crime

in third period im trying not to pass out while running too many laps

and fourth period was so boring all of us now need to take many naps

fifth was worse than the 1st, second, 3rd, and fourth

i feel like 6th period was going south rather than north

seventh period was the first break through

and in eighth i never felt like i needed to be more withdrew

two hours later at micah's house

truth...or dare. one of the games i despised the most, because i was not willing to do neither truth nor dare. but ally has of course convinced everyone to play. "hmmm...who's willing to go first?" ally asks. "fine, i'll pick at random. im thinking of a number between 1-100, whoever's closest, wins!" she says. "or loses, this isn't a good thing." micah says, as the rest of the group laughs with him. 

after we all choose our numbers, micah has to go first, of course. ally comes up with a question for him. "hmmm...who's the hottest person you've seen. doesn't have to be anyone you know, thoug-" she gets cut off. "oh, jacob elordi of course." there's a moment of silence, then someone snickers, and eventually it turns into laughter. "o-okay, okay" ally says through laughter. "let's go around the circle. matt you're next. micah, shoot your question." she says. "okay...um. matt... 'sup." the two laugh. "truth or dare, micah! ask truth or dare!" ally says. "oh yeah. truth or dare?" he says. "i know the dare will be weird, but so will the truth...i guess truth." matt says, with thought.  "what's the most embarrassing thing you've done this week?" micah asks. 

matt covers his face, and nick, chris, and mason all start laughing. i'm assuming something happened between the four of them that was worthy of this embarrassment from matt. who in chris's words is normally tough. "uhhh, do i have to say?" matt asks. "yes!" the guys laughing say, not quite in unison, but with the same directness. "well...i was talking about this girl with mason and chris, and nick was there too for some reason. and then when i was saying...while i was- god i can't when you're all looking at me like that." he says to chris, nick, and mason, who are leaning foward, and holding in laughter. "just say it." chris says. "or we will." mason says, which moves matt to tell his story.

"so i was in the hallway with chris, mason, and for some reason nick and we were talking and chris brought up..." he pauses and looks at chris for the answer. "...it was refrigerators." mason adds. "yeah whatever, refrigerators, and i said...hmm refrigerators are in kitchens. speaking of kitchen do you know addie kitchen? she's so fucking annoying" we were like at our lockers, and there's a corner right next to them, and she was turning the corner as i said addie kitchen is annoying." matt says. "and then what happened?" chris says, shoving nick playfully and laughing. "then she started roasting me. starting with how i act "tough" and never really ending there. so yeah, that's my answer." he says, almost annoyed at chris, nick, and mason. "she really resonates with chris i guess." ally says, chuckling.

after about another minute of laughing and joking about the situation, it's mine turn. matt's supposed to ask me. "katey truth or dare?" he asks. "dare." i say, almost knowing the truth will be worse. "i  dare you to call...the quarterback...what's his face?" matt asks. "are you humbling him matthew? it's bennett fairlend, by the way." jon informs him, while everyone laughs. "kay fine i guess." i say, pulling out my phone and scrolling through my contacts to find bennett. i call him. "hello?...dude katey what do you want?" bennett asks. "hold on i have to step outside." he says, not waiting for a response from me. "uhhh where are you, right now?" i ask. 

i see matt mouthing hang up. so i hang up before he can respond and we all laugh. "oh shit, it's already 11:49?" i check my phone time. "i need to get home by midnight, sorry guys." i say. "i can drive you if you need." matt says. "ummmm sure, i guess." i say. it is pretty dark out and jon walked here so i wouldn't be getting anything from him. and ive yet to take my test, it's coming up though...and i wouldn't be confident enough to drive alone in the dark. so yeah, going with matt has nothing to do with anything, he's just being a good friend...

right?
