RECAP:
"Get in Loser, we're going shopping!"
"Hey Dimps... nice car."
*
"You! You are not taking me shopping! You're taking me to the woods so you can kill me with an axe."
"Yes, in fact the axe is in the glove compartment."
*
"Hey there, teddy bear!"
"Hey, bae."
"Don't do that! I am your baby, and you are mine but don't call me bae!" He says as his fingers lace through mine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Okay, okay. Let me get this straight. You," he points at me, " are getting married for your parents sake? So they get money? That's fucked up."
"I thought swearing wasn't attractive Diego. Anyway, yes I am and it's because of that, that my life feels so horrible and I want to commit suicide by jumping off a really tall building, into a pool filled with spikes... that are on fire." I say not really meaning it. But I feel like that sometimes.
"Phoebs, don't joke about that." Chloe scolds me. She once had a best friend that committed suicide... not a subject she takes lightly.
"Sorry." I say in a whisper.
My phone hasn't stopped vibrating. I don't know what terms Jeremy wants me to put it in. I swear I will write it in whatever language for him. In nice letters I will just say, leave me the fuck alone.
Jeremy: Go where?
Jeremy: Where are you?
Jeremy: Look I just want to talk.
Jeremy: Phoebe don't be a bitch. Just answer me.
Jeremy: I am calling the cops! Where the fuck are you?!
Phoebe: Lasciami il cazzo da solo, cagna. (Leave me the fuck alone, bitch.)
Jeremy: Did you just insult me in Italian? Fine, I will insult you in Korean. Dong saya dae.
Phoebe: That means 'I need to take a shit.'
Jeremy: oh :(
Phoebe: idiota
I read the conversation out for Diego and Chloe. They both just laughed. Soon we are driving up my street and I see Jeremy's car.
"Chloe, I am going to grab my things and we are staying with Diego."
"Um, you do know that I am staying with you?" Diego replies.
"Oh, merda."
"What does that mean?" Diego asks.
"It means shit."
Chloe parks and we all climb out gracefully. That's a lie, they climbed out gracefully while I fell on my face, and they were the bestest best friends ever. You wanna know how they helped? They laughed. Yup, they just made my whole week.
