The words 'Suck it Cunt' were spray painted on the now broken windshield of Hunter's car, a pile of dogshit on the hood.

Sommer looked and saw the tires were slashed, Sommer immediately turning to Hunter who grew angrier.

"That's mean." Robbie says from Sommer's right. "Yeah, it is." Kevin replied. "I gotta call my dad." Hunter says as he fumbled with his phone.

"Let me drive you home." Sommer says as she looked at Hunter who dialed up his dad's number. 

Eventually the boy agreed, they walked up to Sommer's Mazda. There were small crochet things that hung from her rearview mirror, small figurines on her dashboard.

It wasn't metal, not in the slightest, but it was most definitely Sommer Peterson. "You can have aux. Just press this before you use it." Sommer says as she motioned to the black cord in her cupholder.

Hunter plugged his phone in, Iron Maiden blaring through her speakers as she drove. "Skip's an asshole, he's just jealous cause you had such a cool car." Sommer says with a smirk.

"You think it was cool?" Hunter questioned as he tapped along to the beat on his leg. "Hell yeah." Sommer says with a laugh, suddenly feeling bold.

"I mean, you're a cool person Hunter." She says, focused on the road ahead of her. "I am?" Hunter questioned, the girl fully having his attention now.

"Coolest person I know." She says with a grin. They then pulled up to Hunter's house, Sommer stopping.

"We have arrived to your destination-" Sommer was cut off as Hunter grabbed her face and pressed his lips against hers swiftly.

The boy pulled away swiftly, Sommer looking at him with wide eyes. 'Shit. I fucked up.' Hunter says, but then a smile started to form on her face.

Sommer then wrapped her arms around him loosely, smiling at him softly. "Does this change things?" Hunter questioned, Sommer raising a brow.

"In a good way or a bad way?" Sommer questioned. "Hopefully a good way, I mean I really-" Hunter was cut off as Sommer brought his face close to hers, kissing him softly.

When they pulled away, Sommer looked at him with a wide grin. "Wanna come in?" Hunter questioned, Sommer nodding as she shut off her car, both of them getting out.

The next day, Sommer and Hunter were in his room. She sat on his bed as she brainstormed some lyrics for his song, the boy sat on his chair and held his guitar.

Sommer's phone then dinged, the girl putting down her notebook and grabbing her phone, that was the same time Hunter's phone vibrated.

Em💜

I might be joining a band...

Sommer sat up straighter as she began typing back vigorously. Hunter watched as the girl typed, a small smile on his face as he put his guitar down, walking towards her.

"Hey." Hunter says as he sat behind her, wrapping his arms around her. "Hi." She says as she leant back, kissing his cheek.

"Kevin's comin' over, says he has something to show us." Hunter says as he placed his chin on her shoulder.

"Something we should be afraid of?" Sommer questioned as she put her phone down. "I hope not." Hunter grumbles which made Sommer chuckle.

"I'm sure it's fine." Sommer says as she grasped the grasped the boy's hand, his chunky silver rings colliding with hers.
