eww unedited thisis bad

it was the next day, somewhere around 12. the boys were just about starting their campaign now.

"your girlfriend still coming?" dustin asks, turning his head to look at her. max's face flushes. "shes not my girlfriend," she quickly snaps back, crossing her arms.

"yeah, you wish," dustin remarks, the boys sniggering. max mumbles a 'whatever' in response.

"thats probably the pizza," mike says to the doorbell ringing. "max, go get it, we're busy," he shoos her with his hand. normally max wouldn't have, but she had nothing better to do, so she got up from her seat on mike's couch and jumped up the stairs.

max pulled open the door, a flat and bored expression on her face, expecting it to be the delivery boy. suprise, it wasnt. there in the delivery boy's spot stood brooklyn, who's head was turned the other way when the door had been opened.

"brooklyn?" max asks, peeking out of the door to see what she was looking at. brooklyn's head whipped around so quickly she whacked herself in the face with her hair, only making max laugh.

 "you didnt-" max starts between laughs. "you didnt hear the door open?" she breathes, managing to stop laughing for a minute.

"whatever," brooklyn scoffs, rolling her eyes, but theres a smile plastered onto her red face.

"i thought you were the delivery boy," max says, running a hand through her hair. "do i look like him?" brooklyn asks, raising her eyebrows. max laughs again. "no, i mean, i was just expecting him, not you," she says.

"here, you can come in. the boys were waiting for you," she grabs brooklyn by the hand and gently pulls her in, guiding her to the stairs leading down to the basement. "hey, was it the piz-" mike starts, but looks up to see brooklyn. "obviously not," max makes her way over to the couch, sits down, and pulls brooklyn down beside her.

"this is so boring," max leans back into the couch after about an hour. "its not that boring," brooklyn says quietly from next to her. "we've been sitting here doing nothing, for like, an hour," max raises her eyebrows.

"yeah, okay, it is pretty boring," brooklyn agrees flatly, leaning back as max ha. "lets do something," max says, staring forward at the boys who were loudly bickering over their game.

"do something?" brooklyn repeats curiously, watching max. "lets go," max gets up and starts up the stairs.
