thirty seven.

"y/n. how do you know him?"

i shrugged at the girl's question, "he's just a friend."

i felt an arm around my shoulder and face nuzzled in my hair, i sighed, "hello benny."

ben chuckled, i rolled my eyes as the group of girls watched us, "i really love my damned nickname."

his voice seemed deeper, maybe it was my hair suffocating him.

i looked over and eyes met mine, "damn son you're body is really.."

"sexy?"

i rolled my eyes again and grabbed my bag, slinging it over my shoulder and shrugged ben off, "ugly."

he hit my shoulder playfully, "fucking bitch."

"fucking cunt."

ben stuck his tongue out at me, i walked out of the room, ben on my heels, "do you have any classes left today?"

"no. you?"

"nada."

ben smirked, "well in that case, let's do something. fuck joe. just me and you, let's go to like an indoor playground or some stupid shit."

i chuckled, rolling my eyes, "an indoor playground? does this town even have one?"

"we can take the bus."

"beeeeennn.."

we began walking out the building toward the bus stop, "i don't think i have time, i have assignments to do."

"live a little, y/n. for me, please? for benny?"

i groaned, seating myself on the small bench under the bus stop roof.

"the things i do for you."

he put his arm around my waist as he sat down next to me, "you love me."

i rolled my eyes but didn't answer.

"anyways, i don't have any money, maybe at home but not with me."

"then we'll go to yours first, let you get ready and we'll live our best life today."

"quote the fault in our stars again, i dare you."

he bumped shoulders with me as an answer, "suck my dick, y/n."

"hmm tempting,"i grinned, "but no."

"tempting?"

"aw y/n. my di-"

"bEN!"

the bus arrived, finally, and ben and i paid for our tickets and sat in the back.

once we arrived at my apartment, ben seated himself onto an armchair while i scurried around trying to find some money, "so, this playground that you want to go to, is it even close by?"

"researching it now. it's forty-five minutes away, ooh, it has a food court."

i chuckled, dusting down my pants. once i found a decent amount of money, i walked into the sitting room, "is there a bus going to that place?"

"yeah, it's at three. what ti- IT'S TEN TO THREE OH MY GOD Y/N RUN!"
