"i aced my test" i said to brendon.

brendon suggested online school. so i agreed. and it was going really well.
"really? what'd you get?" he asked.
"a b" i said, sucking my lollypop.
"awesome!" we high fived and he went to the fridge to get some beer.
"i got you a present" he said.
"really?" i looked up. he grinned and slid a little bag across the table. i looked inside and pulled out a sweater. i unfolded it and saw it was an ariana grande one!
"i love it!" i got up and ran to hug him.

"im glad. it'll look good on you" he ruffled my hair and sent me to put it away. after that i went back downstairs to see him lighting something.
"you mind?" he asked. i shook my head and sucked my lollypop.
"at least your open about it unlike most people. plus its legal" i said.
"you're so funny - like your level of common sense is cute but it's also funny" he laughed. "yeah the truth hurts"

he laughed again. "i didn't realise you had this side of you" he said.
"of course you didn't" i replied. "i was some quiet little rat"
"hey don't talk like that" he scolded me.
"least i dont think guns are okay"
"talk how you want" he high fived me. "but not badly about yourself"
