He glanced up at my face while checking out my wrist. I had a couple small tattoos on their. One was just a stick figure tree and it looked horrible I got it only because my friends made me, another was a heart on my forearm.
"Are you done examining me" I ask teasingly.
He lets out a small laugh, "yea whatever", "you know I would have never thought you're name would be Justine" he says quietly to himself.
"And I would have never thought you're name would be gus" I added behind him.
"It's short for Gustav" he smiles back.
I don't know what I was feeling but I couldn't help but grin. I passed the blunt back to him.
Soon we're both as high as I kite, I feel a familiar wave fly over me. Than I pass out on the couch.
The Next Day
I woke up to the vibration of my phone and immediately reach into my pocket, I'm still on the couch but with a blanket. I hear Tracy's voice and a familiar one following. It was Mandy, she had an oversized shirt on that was probably his, and Tracy kept referring to her as his "snow bunny". I made a weird face to her as she went into the kitchen she laughed it off. It was typical Mandy always had stars in her eyes.My phone keeps blowing and I woke up still baked. I unlocked it and my social media is flooded with dms and screenshots. I click onto a recent one titled are you two talking?!
It was a picture of peep smiling with a thumbs up and me in the background knocked out, he put it on his Instagram story and titled it "she can't hang :))"
I smiled to myself and put my phone down. Gus was a stud I'll tell you that.
Gus came out, with a Louis Vee sweater and some black ripped jeans. He had a supreme fanny pack. "Yooo I'm bout to go to the studio" he shouts loud enough to wake the whole block.
He realizes I'm still here and looks embarrassed I let out a laugh.He starts up towards the couch and runs his hands through his two toned hair. "How bout you go get dressed and we can grab some coffee." he tried telling more than asking. I looked up at him and shrugged. "I have to change and go back home ". I butted in trying not to be awkward.
"Than let's hit the mall" he replied."You won't stop now won't you"
"I thought I was making it obvious"
We hoped into a white Benz Truck. I tried my best to adjust myself but I lowkey looked homeless. He stares at me non stop and I stare at him as we cruise downtown LA. We pulled up to a huge shopping center. "I'll buy you anything you need" he chirps. As we pull up into a parking spot further back to the shops. The car stops and we're sitting there in a familiar silence again.
I unbuckle my seat belt, and so does he. We start out with small talk, where he's from, why he got into music and build up from their.
"I really got into music because it was the only way for me express myself without falling apart" he sighs. I look at the ground as we keep walking up. I can feel his staring at the back of my neck. "How about you" he ask. "It started out in high school, when young goth, was just Justine Patterson, she was just you're average well, average Out Cast" he smiled "well I see something we have in common".
"One day I took it to rapping and the rest was history". He smiles at the thought of my story. We stopped in front of Hot Topic.
"Let's go in here, yeah?!" He walks into the dimly lit store. I immediately picked up a pair of weed glasses. He whips out his phone and takes a picture. I can't help to laugh. Everywhere we go he's greeted by fans or exchanged weird looks. He occasionally stopped to take pictures and autographs and so did I. His eyes were brown and he was the cutest I didn't know what was happening but I found comfort in him.I looked up at the Victoria Secret logo and my eyes beam up it was like heaven. I looked back at him and he smiled. "Like I said anything you wanted" he winked. I started grabbing a couple of panties and picked up a pink lingerie set. I went to the dressing room and tried them on. It complimented my skin nice but I still feel like it was missing something. At this point I'm modeling in lingerie in the mirror.
I see the curtain flash open to the dressing room and I try my best to cover my barely clothed self up. It was peep..
