"Hey guys wanna grab pizza after school?"
The crew decided to meet together in the morning before classes started. It was fresh in the morning. Nick and Lucille were holding hands, walking alongside Miller, Clay and Victor. They were making idle conversation on the way to JIms house.
"Yeah sure let's get Jimmy though." Lucille chirped.
Conveniently Jim was located near a pizza parlor, well a block away but located near nonetheless. Once Jim joined the party they were on the way to get pizza for breakfast.
Jim stretches, and yawns, "Man I had a weird dream. I dreamt these guys came together and formed a slam poetry group but everytime someone preformed the lyrics would get darker and darker until eventually the last person came on stage and shot himself."
"Uh? JIM? That's eerily dark first thing in the damn morning-" Lucille said, reapplying her lip gloss. Miller walking alongside Victor takes it upon himself to grab his hand, at this gesture Victor internally swoons completely forgetting Miller's attitude problem. "Jim, my guy, you good?"
"Yes sir, I think I just been watching too much crime documentaries."
Clay shivers at the thought, "Eee I can't watch true crime crap it freaks me out."
"Pussy." Miller said.
Nick laughed at this but Clay gave Miller a dirty glance, one that was met with a similar face. Afterwards Miller whispered something under his breath, "Mutt."
"What did you just call me? You fucking smurf. " Clay shot back.
Everyone went silent waiting for a moment, waiting for Miller to bite back. But he didn't. Instead, he tsk-ed and rolled his eyes. Getting shut down caught Clay off guard, he was so ready to get into an argument. And maybe he realized he should reflect on this habit of his, so he sighed.
Lucille, worn out and tired, "You guys are always bickering like children."
"Maybe they are kids, doll."
"Oh I love it when you call me that." She's falling more in love with Nick as time goes on. Jim gags, "Gross you two, cut that crap out. You too Clay and Mills no more name calling."
She giggles, "Jealous, hun?"
"Oh I would rather die, thank you." He reassured her. This entire time Victor has just been on his phone, "Guys can we order our pizza now?" Not even looking up from his phone.
"Oh right, let's go in and order."
The crew steps and order their pizza slices, and once they finish it their off their way to school.
At school they went inside and waited until the bell rung to go to their classes. Once the bell rung they went to their own classes, Jim and Miller sharing a homeroom. They walk together talking, "So how's things with Victor?"
Miller coughed, "Uh. Their new."
"Wow, vague. Remind me not to ask you anything ever again."
"Will do. But how about you? Hows' things with Poppy?"
"Ahhh, things are going great with them I hope. The other day we were texting and they said I could pistol whip them." He chuckled.
"What?"
"...As a joke obviously."
Miller side eyed him, "Okay. Anyways though, I'm gonna go to the bathroom."
Jim shifted his gaze towards Miller. He knew what Miller was up too, as Miller has been consistently high since the weekend. Jim didn't like this new development, not that it's uncharacteristic of Miller. Everyone saw this coming.
