ian and i were waiting for lip outside of his residence since we were going out to eat.
"hey, things still going good between you guys?" ian asked me.
"yeah, we're happier than ever actually, what about you? you know, things going good with the fireman?" i asked my best friend.
"yeah, he's really nice." ian replied as i nodded.
"that's great, you deserve someone nice." i replied.
"thanks, hey you'll never guess who i found kissing carl in his room yesterday." ian told me.
"who?" i asked him.
"emma." ian replied with a grin.
"wait, emma and carl were kissing?" i asked ian again.
"yeah, they didn't do anything else though but it was kind of cute in a puppy love kind of way." ian replied as we saw lip walk over to us.
"finally. where were you? i'm starving." ian told his older brother.
"what time is it?" lip asked.
"oh, shit! i'm sorry, man." lip replied when he saw the time on ian's phone.
"hey, what's going on tonight? calebs working all night." ian said.
"i'm working at the sorority, run the bar for a party. you should come." lip told his little brother.
"you know how i love a sorority." ian replied.
"and there's some girls who look like dudes." lip said.
"pass." ian replied.
"it's mardi gras theme, they got costumes and shit." lip explained.
"oh." ian groaned.
"we'll make it fun. fuck." lip said taking a drink.
"hair of the dog?" ian asked.
"you read 63 shitty student papers on nuclear fission, you need something to dull the pain." lip said finishing his drink and then putting it in the trash.
while we were walking i saw someone i didn't expect to see, it was justin.
"lip, am i crazy or is that him." i said tapping his chest and lip looked in the distance and then he gripped onto my hand softly and we started walking in the same direction as him but we kept our heads low and he didn't notice us.
"hey, mel wasn't that your ex?" ian asked me.
"yeah, don't draw attention, okay?" i told ian.
"got it." ian replied.
-
later that night we went to the party and lip was handing out drinks. lip passed ian and i some drinks as well.
