Post-Squip
Jeremy downed the Mountain Dew red, and heard the voice in his head fade.
Though the Squip had been ultimately defeated, it came back with its poisonous words every once in a while, and sometimes Jeremy couldn't take it.
Everything about you is so terrible!
Your neediness is so ugly!
Everything about you sucks!
You're such a slob!"Jeremy? What're you doing up this late?" Michael rubbed his eyes, rolling over in his bed to look at his friend.
"It's nothing. Go back to sleep, Mike, you've got class tomorrow."
"College may suck balls, but if something is wrong, I'm willing to stay up," Michael sat up, putting on his glasses.
"No, no, really, it's nothing. Sleep, Michael."
"Mountain Dew red," he pointed out. "The Squip tormenting you again?"
"Yeah, but he's right," Jeremy smiled sorrowfully.
"C'mere," Michael motioned to his bed.
"I have my own bed, Michael."
"Come. Here," he said, now more stern.Jeremy climbed up an sat next to Michael, who put the bedsheets over Jeremy's bare legs.
"What'd he say this time?"
"The usual. I'm a hopeless nerd who has no chance at ever doing anything important. Everything about me is terrible, I should just give in to his wishes."
"Fucking liar," Michael muttered, putting an arm around his friend, pulling him into a hug. "You can't let him get to you, okay? He's programmed to tell lies to make you feel as if you need self-improvement. What he says is wrong. You're not terrible. Everything about you is wonderful."
"Thanks, Mike, but he was right. I know I shouldn't listen to him but his works sink into my mind."
"Repeat after me. Everything about you is so wonderful," Michael tried, forcing Jeremy to look into his eyes.
"Everything about me is... wonderful."
"It's a good start, now believe it. Believe that what I'm saying, what you're saying, is true."
"Hey, can I wear you're hoodie?" Jeremy blurted, only making Michael smile.
"Sure," he responded, picking up the hoodie from the end of the bed and handing it to Jeremy, who pulled it on over his head.
"It's comfortable and it makes me feel better," he admitted, pulling up the hood. "Everything about me is so wonderful."
"Everything about you is so wonderful," Michael grinned, "you don't need to be more chill, because guys like us are cool in college."
"You're right," Jeremy said, leaning against Michael. His head rested on the other's shoulder. "I'm okay."
"You're wonderful," Michael insisted, playing with Jeremy's bedhead curls.
"You're wonderful, too," he said. Luckily for him, his blushing face wasn't visible in the dark room.They fell asleep sitting up, leaning against each other.
