i actually have standards"WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?"
The voice of Chloe Fowler asked as she let herself into her best friends room and took a seat on the bed. Clementine wasn't shocked by the brunette's appearance in her room, her unannounced appearances had become a normal occurrence for both girls
"I got Henry to wait as long as I could for you to appear but you know how he can get," Chloe carried on while she reclined back on one of the many decorative pillows that covered the bed, "Patrick was not happy at the no show though, that boy has a weird obsession with you."
"I didn't feel well, that's all, decided to stay home for the day. I forgot to call, sorry."
The Montgomery girl thought it best to hide her newfound friendship with the outcast boys. It wasn't that she was embarrassed by them, just that she knew her best friend and the Bowers' group well enough to know when to shut her mouth and, unfortunately, this was one of those situations.
"You didn't miss much," Chloe admitted, "Henry wanted to talk to the new kid about something, apparently he didn't let Henry copy his answers to a stupid test. The boy was scared shitless, it was hilarious!"
Clementine hummed in response, not daring to look at the girl who was laughing at the morbid memory. Her mind had gone straight to Ben Hanscom, the new kid, of course, she had already known Henry was guilty of hurting the boy but what shocked her was not Henry, but her best friends carelessness about the situation.
"The fucker made Henry lose his knife though, you know the one his dad gave him. God, he's not gonna know what hit him." Chloe snorted before flipping onto her stomach to face the blonde, "So what's with you and Patrick?"
"What do you mean?"
"Come on, Clem, are you blind? He's seriously into you."
Clementine grimaced, "He's a creep."
Chloe rolled her eyes, "Clementine, you can't turn away every boy that shows interest in you because he's not up to your standards. You're going to be single forever."
"I'm sorry, I actually have standards." The blonde snapped, fed up of her best friends attitude "I don't date the first boy that shows me any interest."
"What the fuck does that mean?"
"I mean Henry Bowers, out of everyone in Derry, him?"
A silence fell over the two girls both shocked at the sudden outburst that had occurred. The two never fought, and even on the rare occasion they did it would end as quickly as it had started, but now the ongoing silence suggested that this time it was different.
