Using Your Best Friend as Your Lover

Catching up with the gang

The end of that day is almost here! I grabbed my bags and put my stuff away while my eyes fixed on the clock. 3...2...1.. DING,DING,DING!

"Finally!", I shouted before getting up from my seat and slinging my book-bag over my shoulder. I sprinted for the door and ran straight to Dave's work place. Dave was my good friend since I was a kid. He is a jerk at times ,but in reality, the kid's a softy.

"Hold up,Speedie!",a girl with black hair and green eyes pulled my book-bag back and smiled down at me. She wore a black hoodie with dog ears at the top and a pair of comfortable looking jeans. wait-I know her! Her name is Jade Harley. She's a complete nerd like--Speak of the devil. Her brother with same hair and blue eyes tripped over me. His blue hoodie almost fell over his head while his shoe's laces seemed to be tied in a knot.

"Sorry about that,Crystal. I wasn't paying attention at the time-"

"I could tell,John~", he ignored my comment and just kept talking.

"I was reading this new Magazine Dave got for me! Guess who it is about?"

"Is this a trick question?",Jade replied this time.

"It's Nic Cage and--", he did a quick swooning motion  before falling again," So, that's why my feet wanted to not move so badly!" He tried untying them while he stuck his tongue out to the side. I kneel'd down and helped him untie them while Jade just laughed to herself. I looked up at Jade when I started to hear her snort when I saw Sollux.

Sollux had been my crush since we were in middle school. I mean, who doesn't love a tall, adorkable, computer nerd with a lisp and two different colored eyes? I have tried to be the attention of his eye for so long ,but he is always with Feferi. She is the nicest person in the world and so pretty. Long brown,wavy hair with glasses that rest on her nose like she was some cute librarian. She dressed nice too. I remember for Prom she had this pink dress that had everyone staring with their jaws to the floor. So much that if you played  that song that goes "Does yo chain hang low?" it would have been changed to "Does yo Jaw hang low? Can it almost touch da floor? Does yo Jaw Hang Low." Okay, maybe not so dramatic ,but you get what I mean. Fef was also a friend of mine. She seemed to like Sollux almost and he returned her red feelings it seemed. Sometimes I wished to had Fef's life.

Jade snapped her fingers in front of my face and I looked ahead. Dave was leaning against a wall wearing his signature dark shades,red sleeved white shirt and jeans with brand name shoes. Dave was the 'Cool Kid' of everyone I knew. He lowered his glasses a bit and shook his head at me. He noticed my daydreaming about Sollux and Fef, that jerk. I stood up and threw my arms around him and hugged him tight.

"I won't let go til you say that you take that head motion back!"

"Hug all you want. It doesn't hurt."

" I won't let you go.."

"Alright then." He just pushed himself off the wall and started walking while keeping an arm around me. "He's not worth it." I think I heard him mumble.

"Can we go to the movie place now? I heard Con Air is on sale today! Vriska wanted to watch it later." John bounced up and down with excitement. I swear he has the biggest man-crush on Nic cage.

"Yo,girlie. You might want to get off now." Mr.Cool kid smirked at me before lowering his glasses again a bit to see where his eyes were pointing. Sollux was looking this way and I practically jumped off Dave. He chuckled before I punched him in the arm playfully.

"Okay enough teasing the girl. How about we get going? I heard Eridan will come if we don't hurry." Jade tried to help me up while talking ,but dropped me.

 Eridan, he was I guess the wannabe player? He tried to get girls ,but he always failed. He claimed to love everyone,even the guys. I thought he was pretty cool at first til he hit on me and Nepeta. Nep is the youngest of everyone, she is also the most playful. Wait, is Sollux still looking?

I look over and he was gone. So was Feferi.
