"I'm just a potato sitting here, wishing I could be fries..." ~One of my friends lol idr which one XD

"I'm sorry...please repeat what you just said." I asked him trying to remain calm.

The little puppy that Luke had bought for Mari came scampering out of their room and made me remember that they had a dog in the first place.

"I could just cut off the hair that's stuck." Mari offered, giving me a sympathetic look.

I looked at her like she was insane.

"I don't fucking think so. You are not cutting off my hair." I said, my tone threatening, as if I dared her to touch those damn scissors.

She held up her hands in mock surrender.

"Alright, alright. Um...let's see if we can get you untangled then hold on I'm going to grab some conditioner." Mari said before disappearing into the bathroom.

The puppy bounced around, and jumped on Luke's stomach.

"Ha hi there, Beefcakes." Luke said and I rolled my eyes.

"Beefcakes? Really?" I asked, chuckling slightly.

"Yeah I call him that when Mari isn't around to hear it." Luke said.

"What's his actual name?" I asked and Luke looked down at me with a smirk.

"Poochykins."

I didn't say anything and instead rolled my eyes. In the end I couldn't refrain myself from saying, "Of course it is."

A few moments of silence passed.

"So is this conditioner thing actually gonna work?" I asked, sighing and trying not to think about where my head was currently laying.

"I don't know. You're the girl here, shouldn't you know about hair junk?" He asked and I glared.

"That's a stereotype Luke."

"Whatever. I don't know if it will work or not. I guess we'll have to find out." Luke told me and we waited for Mari to get back.

"Jesus did she die in there? What's taking her so long?" Luke muttered and sighed.

"MARI!! WHERE ARE YOU!?" I yelled and it scared Luke making him jerk and rip out some of my hair.

"OWW!" I screamed in pain feeling tears prick my eyes.

"Why in the fucking hell would you yell like that? Out of the blue too. I mean jeez you could have given me a heart attack." Luke blabbered on and I tried to focus on anything but the unpleasant burning sensation on my scalp.

I knocked my head back hitting him where it would hurt most.

"AHH DANG WHY!?" Luke yelled, and Mari scampered back in.

"Sorry it took me so long, I had to answer a phone call."

Luke and I just stared at her for a moment before we both started yelling at the same time.

"What the hell kind of phone call is-"
"Why in Jiminy Cricket's name would you answer-"

"Whoa, I'm sorry okay? Chill out." She said and began putting conditioner in the part of my hair where it was stuck.

Twenty minutes later and my hair was free, making Luke and I content and also tired at the same time.

"God, it's late you guys. I'm going to go to bed now. Try to keep the noises to a minimum?" I said, narrowing my eyes before turning to walk into my room. They knew exactly what kind of noises I was talking about.

Obviously disregarding my warning, after a few minutes the yelling began.

"Why was her hair caught in your crotch huh? Are you cheating on me with her?" 

"No, Mari calm down that's not what happened and you know it." Luke replied. I rolled over and tried to fall asleep, having no such luck. 

They fought every night these days. I try not to think about it. 

About how happy it makes me. 

About how I relish in their misery and how I wish they would just break up already so I can have Luke to myself.

"She probably only wants you to herself and got her hair stuck there on purpose." Mari yelled, making me shiver with the weird fact that I had just thought something like that in my head.

"She did not. She's my best friend and yours. Do you think she'd really do that in spite of you?" Luke told her making me smile as he defended me.

"You know what? She can obviously hear us. Why don't we go ask her?" Mari said and barged into my room.

"Wow, it's a good thing I wasn't mastur-" 

"Do you like Luke?" Mari interjected, making me freeze.

"No...why would I?" I said, glancing up at him while he watched me intently.

Mari's face broke and she stepped out of the room.

"What happened? What did I say?" I asked as Luke hung his head.

"It's not your fault...it's just..." 

"Just what Luke?" I asked, anticipation weaving throughout my voice.

"You hesitated."

I'm finally getting out and doing things haha...

Anyway I've just had a lot of projects and studying to do. I even have homework now and am instead writing this for you guys. 

Teaser: Mari has a reason for why she didn't immediately find the conditioner...she got a phone call.
