Beggers can't be choosers

Everett and I have been hanging out a lot more in the past few weeks, it's a weird love/hate relationship.

Half the time we agree on everything and the other half we argue and annoy the shit out of each other. It's pretty entertaining.

But anyways, that brings me to today.

"Hey Everett, what's up?" I ask while sitting on my bed after finally finishing my homework.

"Nothing much, what about you?"

"Clearly not much, I'm calling you" I say sarcastically and I can hear a loud sigh come from the other side of the phone.

"Do you want to go out or what?"

"Yup, I wanna go to the hobby shop today" I say standing up and grabbing my jacket.

"Hell no"

"Why?"

"Are you fucking kidding me? As if it being a loser hive isn't bad enough, it's Jeremy's place. Fucking Jeremy's"

"It's not that bad, and neither is Jeremy, I work their sometimes too." I say rolling my eyes.

"Yeah, I feel sorry for you"

"Yes. You do feel sorry, so your gonna meet me in front of Rio in an hour" I say opening my door and leaning my dorm room.

"Eh Fine. But if Jeremy shows up I'm getting the fuck out of there"

"Right. See you there" I say hanging up.

1 hour later

"Hey 'Ever'." I say walking up to him and he sighs.

"Let's just get this over with" Everett says and I chuckle.

"No need for dramatics, come on" I say and we walk into the shop.

"Fuck this place disgusts me. I am literally disgusted right now. With you, with myself, With this entire situation" Everett says making me roll my eyes.

"You are such a baby" I say looking around the shop.

"Just do your thing so we can get out of here" Everett says and I laugh.

"I'm gonna take my own time, Darl. If you can't handle this you probably shouldn't be asking me out. I've got some pretty different ideas of dates" I say feeling amused by how much he hates this place.

I might bring him here more often.

A loud sigh makes both me and Everett look up and Jeremy is looking at us seeming... well, pretty neutral as usual.

"Everett, what are you doing here?" Jeremy asks and I smile.

"Hey Sunshine!" I say and Jeremy sighs again.

"Why are you both here?" Jeremy asks again and I shrug.

"Well, I needed some things from here and I wanted to keep things interesting so I forced Everett to come with me" I say truthfully.

"Okay, I'm going to go to the back. Don't call me if you need anything" Jeremy says and I salut him.

"Cool, see you later jerebear" I say and he doesn't bother to respond before leaving.

"See? that wasn't that bad" I tell everett and he glares at me.

"My skin crawled so much I think I'm gonna need a graft" Everett says and I scoff.

"Come on, you see him like once a month at the meetings and we go to the same school as him, what's the big deal now?" I ask leaning against a bookshelf.
