Suburbs Boy

4 - #Crazy

"Aberdeen, what are you doing here?" Chad asked, smiling at his kind-of-friend.

"I needed your help." she sighed, plopping down on the white sofa.

"You might not want to sit on that." Chad pointed at the sofa.

"Why?" Aberdeen kicked of her boots and plopped her bare legs on the sofa.

"My roommate enjoyed some time on this sofa this morning. Hasn't been cleaned yet."

"Ew!" She jumped of the sofa, attempting to clean off invisible things from her body. "What the hell?"

"I know."

"What kind of sicko is he? #Crazy." she walked towards him.

"I know." he nodded, almost laughing. "Anyways, what the hell are you doing here Aberdeen?"

"Call me Aber, it sounds better. My friends get to call me Aber."

"Okay Aber, what brought you to my humble dorm?"

"Remember when you saved me from that weird drug dealer guy?"

"Yeah, is he coming after you again?"

"Yes, and I don't know why." she looked down at her feet as she spoke.

"Why are you looking down at your feet? Are you lying to me? Look at me Aber."

She looked at his chest; "I'm not lying."

"Aberdeen."

"He is coming after me again." She looked into his eyes."

"Why?"

"I don't know."

"Why, Aberdeen?"

"I might have made another deal with him and now I owe him money."

"What? I warned you against those type of people!"

"I know! I'm-"

The door opened and Alex stood in the doorway, staring at them. It was silent as he walked towards them, glancing at Chad. He turned to Aber.

"I thought I heard voices. Hello, I'm Alex, Mac's roommate." He held his hand out towards her.

"I'm Aberdeen. But you can call me Deen." she smiled at him, putting her hand in his.

Chad felt disgusted. Was she flirting?

"Are you Mac's sister? I don't see and comparison."

"No, I'm not."

"No wonder. You definitely can't be his girlfriend then, what's a beautiful thing like you doing with him?"

"I'm not his girlfriend either."

"I'm in luck then!" he smiled and she laughed.

"I'm sorry to interrupt whatever you were doing but we were actually having a conversation." Chad spoke up, clearly disgusted.

"See you later bonita. Maybe next time we can put our bodies together." he walked into the bedroom and closed the door, winking at Aber.

"That was so damn repulsive. That guy, seriously?" Chad shook away the thought from his head.

"He was kind of cute thought, wasn't he?"

"No. Anyways, what were you thinking?"

"I was thinking that I needed money. I still need it now so could you please just give it to me and spare me the fatherly lecture?"
