Its been a hot minute hi its 2am how are you-

////////////////////

Peggys face went to confusion, as my heart quickened.

Does she notice?

Will she find out?

"Why do you suddenly look so nervous dude? Im not gonna bite you." She giggles, and i nervously chuckle.

"I dunno.. Just.. excited?"

K i l l  m e-

"Awe. Well then lets go!" She says and drags me while John follows behind.

A wave of anixety is still stirring inside me as she leads me somewhere. 

"Were gonna go get some ice cream Alex what kind ya like?" Peggy asks me, still having a death grip on my arm.

"Chocolate is fine." I reply.

sToP tOuchiNg mY aRm -

"Mint for me!" John called out from behind me.

"Ight."

*time skip brought to you by Jesus, our lord and savior amEN-*

So after all that ice cream fiasco, and a shit ton of napkins later, i finally got Peggy to let my arm go and currently were about to go in Peggys pool.

You can guess that im scared shitless and there is no way in hell im going in it. For obvious reasons, but they don't know that..

How the fuck am i gonna convince them i don't wanna swim?? There probably gonna think im weird or something..

Which is true actually,, fuck-

"CANNONBALL-"

John screamed as he basically yeeted himself into the pool with a grand splash. Water went everywhere as he emerged back up.

"This is so nice~" He moans and floats on his back. Peggy snorts and jumps in after him.

I stood there awkwardly while they swam around splashing each other. I would love to swim, but also kinda don't wanna electrocute anyone or myself at the moment..

"Hey you comin' in Alex? Water is great." Peggy says as she slicks back her mass of hair.

"Oh um.. It's fine im not a big swimmer." I say trying to make up some convincing excuse.

"You sure? It's pretty hot out. 90° to be exact."

I fiddle with my fingers in my hoodie pocket, there very sweaty and slippery. Why must i be this way?

"I'll be ok." I smile.

What a lie im so mother motherfucking dying right now-

"Ok. Whatever floats your boat."

As she swims toward a floatie, i decide to sit in the shade. I wish i could have fun with actual friends, but i can't.. They'll think im some freak or they already assume that anyways. I just feel bad.

But before i could swallow myself in self pity, a sudden rush of drowsiness washes over me.

Don't know if this is good or bad, but i forcefully blink my eyes open to avoid whatever is happening. My eye lids feel like bricks are weighing them down, and i give in.

All i recall is me slowly hitting the hot pavement and black filling my vision.
