Chapter Fifty Four - Coupley Things

(Jefferson seems like one of those people who would drink a whole bottle of wine by just refilling a drinking glass, so when he was asked how much wine he had he would just say one glass)

Wednesday was tourist day, so the school dressed up in flowered shirts and khakis. A small group of seniors started wandering around the school, led by G, as if they were a tour group. People kept joining the group until the entire senior class (about 50-60 students) were wandering the halls when they should've been in class.

"Here we have the gym," G said, waving dramatically at the gym doors "students are put through an hour of torture here daily to "keep them in shape" as the gym teacher, or the head torturer, puts it."

The crowd of seniors gasped and covered their mouths as if in shock.

"Now if you'll follow me I'll show you the science corridor, where our lives are put in danger every day due to children not following the instructions." G said, glaring at one kid in the group who had accidentally stabbed G in the hand with a scalpel in Sophomore year.

The crowd moved forward, Philip with them. George was at his side, and Philip had linked arms with him so they wouldn't lose each other as the crowd moved.

Philip had noticed recently that he was the only one George linked arms with. He also noticed that he and their friends (and teachers) were the only people George was nice to. These realizations probably didn't mean anything, but Philip still reveled in the fact that he was somewhat special to George.

"Do you have your Homecoming outfit picked out yet?" George asked as the group moved to the science corridor.

"Yup!" Philip said.

"I'm just wearing a button-down and dress pants like the rest of the football team." George said.

"Well my outfit is better because I have a tie." Philip said, tapping a rhythm with his fingers along George's arm like he was playing the piano.

"How fancy." George said. "Almost to fancy for a highschool dance."

"It's our last year- let me enjoy it." Philip said.

"Just kiss already!" Someone yelled behind them.

Philip blushed while George turned and glared at the kid. They were kind of acting like a couple.

Philip mentally slapped himself. They weren't acting like a couple, he wad just interpreting it that way, which he had been doing recently. He didn't understand why he always saw the things he and George did together as coupley things.

"What are you thinking about?" George asked Philip, snapping him out of his thoughts.

"How great I'm going to look at Homecoming." He said, even though that wasn't true.

George rolled his eyes and smiled.
