mia, camden, tyler and i are all cramped in our small dining table. our forks and knives clink against the ceramic plates as we eat the burnt sausages and pancakes.

"i don't think it's a good idea to eat this." camden says as he holds up a black piece of sausage.

"your gay ass is going to eat it those weenies, and you're gonna like it." tyler says, "i didn't pay $5 for all of this shit to go to waste."

"i'm not gay!" camden yells.

"my bad. closeted gay." tyler says and camden sighs.

"tyler i can't do it. every bite i take is taking away 5 years of my life." mia cringes.

"good, bitch!" tyler snaps. "we all knew you was gonna die first anyways."

"dafuq does that mean?" mia says and i laugh.

"it's lowkey kind of good." i shrug. i submerge my pancakes in maple syrup and stuff it all into my mouth.

"damn mia, you're chasing after this?" tyler nods his head to me.

my eyes crinkle as i smile with my mouth full and they all say ew.

"the pancakes are delicious though, what did you guys put in it?" mia asks.

"crack." camden says.

mia makes an 'o' with her mouth and i slap camden.

after we've finished our food, i run to the door to put on my sneakers from our shoe rack.

"you're leaving?" mia comes up behind me.

"yeah, i'll be back." i pull her closer to me and lean down to kiss her. i immediately get hit with her sweet scent and i suddenly don't want to go.

"i'm going to study with sam," i lie. "i'll see you later?"

"i have two classes." she frowns.

"then i'll see you after." i wink as i grab my keys from the counter.

she bites her lip and nods. i tug her bottom lip out of her teeth with my thumb and kiss her parted lips one last time.

i turn around to leave and she has the audacity to slap me in the ass.

"mia! i swear." i yell as i swat her hand away.

she just hysterically laughs and slams the door on me.

i bounce my leg as i sit at a chess table near the fountain and wait for johnson. we both agreed to meet up here to talk. i look around for the blonde haired boy but my eyes land on someone else i know instead.

"hey, cutie." madison winks at me.

i give her a small smile and nod, hoping to dismiss her. she pulls out the seat in front of me and sits. damn it.
