"sadie, can i come over?" millie spoke into the phone, slightly whimpering as she spoke. her chest heaved up and down as she breathed heavily, due to the fact that she literally just ran away from finn wolfhard.
"what's wrong, mills? are you on your period for the month?" sadie said, not joking at all.
"what? yes, but no."
"just get over here, idiot." sadie said, sighing and giggling.
millie smiled and dashed out of her room. she hadn't bothered to take her white combat boots off, because the house was already messy, dirt on the floors, as well as empty beer bottles and used cigarettes. millie was walking towards the front door, and she accidentally knocked over a blue bottle, unknowingly spilling a fizzy yellow liquid on the carpet.
when she finally made it to sadie's house, she noticed that there were no cars in the driveway, so she just let herself into the pale brown house.
"sadie? get down here. i wanna talk."
shortly after millie said that, she saw a head of bright red hair and piercing blue eyes hopping down the wooden stairs. sadie smiled when she saw millie, but frowned when she saw the messed up makeup smeared on millie's face.
"millie what happened?" sadie said, walking to the kitchen table where multiple products of makeup sat. she pulled two wooden chairs out from underneath the table and motioned for millie to sit.
"basically i was being my usual shy-ass self and i was in the woods crying because at school everyone was staring at me." i started, and sadie focused on my words, probably understanding what i went through. "you know how i get in situations like that. it's like i can't control myself."
"i'm sorry, mills. this was my fault. if you hadn't worn all that makeup and that short dress, we wouldn't be in this situation. but, please, go on." she said, and grabbed my hand.
"it's fine, sads, you probably didn't know i would have a panic attack. well anyways, i was sitting at my 'special place' when i heard something behind me." i had never told sadie where i went to think, 'my special place' was just simply somewhere in the woods to her.
she nodded, a sign that she wanted me to continue.
god, if i could only have a better life, one where i was pestered everyday by a cute guy. no, millie, you can't think he's cute. he's a fucking bully. don't think like that again.
ugh.
"it was finn. i don't know why i keep seeing him there. i hate it. i said that he is bullshit. but it is true. sads what do i do?"
sadie appeared shocked, but also- disappointed?
"millie, maybe you should give him a chance to talk." she said. my mouth dropped open.
how could she say that? i thought she was on my side!
"um... what the fuck! sadie are you insane?! i can't give him a chance to speak again! were you not there all of those times when he physically and mentally abused me? and he told me he was going to change but he didn't. he just went right back to being the little asshole he always is!" i yelled.
"mills, chill. it was just a suggestion."
she said.
can't she see that i hate finn? i will never understand him.
"you're right. i- i'm sorry, sads. but i don't want to see him again. can we skip school tomorrow?" i asked with a tinge of hope in my voice in attempt to make her say yes.
"millie," she sighed, "you know we can't do that. but, i love you so my answer is yes. fuck school. fuck finn. actually no, don't fuck finn."
that caused me to laugh. a teary eyed laugh.
"sadie, you're weird. you're a weird little bitch!" i said, causing her to laugh as well.
i hoped that skipping school would be fun. past experiences with skipping school haven't gone well. we've been caught almost every time we tried to leave school in the middle of the day. our excuses would usually be something like, 'but we only wanted some food!', or, 'my mom wanted us home.' obviously these never worked. for smart girls, they are bad at lying.
"you know you love me." sadie said, and i smiled.
"you know it, sads." i told her. her arms wrapped around me, giving me a tight hug. "sads, you're gonna break all of my bones!"
(sillie)
"okay, okay." she said while dropping her arms. "so where do you want to go tomorrow?"
i thought for a minute.
"we can drive to the next town over and go to an old diner. surely nobody we know could be there." i said.
