Liza smiled. "He's a wild one. Where is he?"
"He doesn't know."
"Typical."
"Very."
"Have you been feeling okay?"
I was caught off guard by this question. "Yeah."
"You sure?"
"Yeah."
"Okay."
Gus burst in. "Okay, we were closer then we thought-"
"Hi, Peepers."
"Momma!" He ran over to her and hugged her. "You're here! I thought you had to leave."
"Decided to stay."
"That's awesome!" Gus grinned. He turned to me. "Did you know?"
"I knew." I smiled.
He picked me up and hugged me. "You're impossible."
"I'm not."
"Correct, you're amazing."
"Gus, concert." Liza reminded him, laughing.
"Right!" He ran into the bathroom and came out a minute later in a different outfit. "My hair is a mess." He groaned.
"Nah, you look adorable."
Gus grabbed his Hello Kitty beanie and pulled it on his head. "I'm ready now."
"You're so cute." I smiled.
"I know I am." He scrunched his nose and stuck his tongue out at me. Gus's phone dinged. "I don't wanna answer that. Can someone else?"
I grabbed his phone. "It's Mackned."
"Yeah, what does he want?"
I read it. "He wants to drop the stuff off tomorrow?"
"Yeah, go ahead. Let him. It's Xans, yeah?"

Mackned: I got your stuff, I'll bring it tomorrow?
Me: xans, yeah?
Mackned: lmao yep, Gus u texting different why?
Me: lol it's Leia, he doesn't wanna answer shit rn
Mackned: who tf are u Leia
Me: I'm hellboy's ghost girl
Mackned: oh, u his gf now? nice
Mackned: tell him imma bring his stuff tomorrow before the concert, prolly in the morning
Me: will do

"Mackned will bring it tomorrow, probably in the morning."
"Alright." Gus nodded.
"You gotta go. Concert."
"I don't wanna."
"Too bad." Liza laughed. "Go perform, Peepers. We'll watch you."

"I love you." He slurred. We were laying in his bunk.
"Uh huh." I smiled.
"I do! I love you so much! You're my everything."
I blushed and buried my face in my chest. "You're my everything."
"I wanna be everybody's everything."
My brain went to his Instagram post. "I know you do."
"I just wish people cared about me."
"Gus..."
"I know you do, and Mom does too, but other people." His hand cupped my face and his thumb trailed over my lips. "I love you so much. More then I ever loved anybody, more then I love myself. You're perfect in every way."
"You're drunk and high."
"No. I'm talkin' truth. You're amazing. I didn't... Shoulda brought you with me originally. I shouldn'tve left you."
"It's okay, Gus."
"No, it's not."
"Yes. It is. It is, I know it is."
He kissed me. He tasted like weed and vodka. "Okay."
"Okay."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
Gus wrapped his arm around my shoulders. "Baby, you're mine. Just mine."
"Yeah. I am."
"I wrote a song. I just recorded it a couple hours ago."
"How does it go?"
"Catchin' feelings for me, catchin' feelings for my lifestyle. Poppin' pills for free, pop that pussy for me right now. Leanin' back in my seat, got me thinkin' bout my life now. I wish that I could see you right now, bury me with all the lights out. Woke up surprised, am I really alive? I almost tried to die last night, survived suicide last night."
"Gus..."
"Don't worry about me. I wrote it a couple months back. Not recently."
"Okay."
"I love you."
"I know you do."
"Good. I want you... No, I need you to know that. You mean so much to me. Baby, I know I don't show it much, but you do. I love you so so much."
I smiled and looked at him. "I love you too."
"I know you do. Remember that time we were like, fourteen, and we got in a fight with a couple kids, and our moms were so mad?"

"Gus! Leia!" The principal marched over to us and grabbed our arms. "Leave them alone!"
"They started hitting Leia!" Gus protested. "She's my best friend! They started hitting her!"
I stood there, nose bleeding. I wiped away the blood and noticed my right fist was bleeding. "Come inside."
We followed her and sat outside the office. Gus looked at me. "You okay?"
I nodded. "Sure."
He handed me a Kleenex. "Nose."
I held it up to my nose. "Assholes."
"Yeah."
My mom ran in. "Leia, I cannot believe you're so fucking stupid and immature as to get in a fight! I thought you knew better!"
"They were hitting her!" Gus said.
"Gustav Elijah, I'll get to you next. Leia, I don't ever want to hear you getting into a fight again, Miss."
"Okay, yeah, whatever." I muttered.
"Gustav. I cannot fathom why you're initiating fights and bringing my daughter into them. I've thought you're a bad example for her for a long time. But I never said it, because she likes you. And I've had to come to a decision. You're not allowed to hang out with her anymore."
"Bullshit!" He jumped up. "Bullshit, she's my best friend, you can't stop me!"
The principal came out. "Oh, Leia's mom. Please come in, we need to talk."
Mom went in. Liza came into the room. "You guys look horrible. What happened?"
"Couple kids were hitting Leia and I had to defend her, Momma."
"Okay." Liza sat next to me. "You guys okay?"
"I'm okay, dunno if Leia will be."
"I'll be okay." I said. "Nose hurts. Oh well."
"Momma, her mom said that we can't hang out anymore. She's my best friend... I dunno what I'd do without her."
"I'll talk to her, okay Peepers?"
"Don't call me that in public..."
"I'll go in. I'll try and calm her down, so you guys can be friends. Okay?"
"Okay."
Liza kissed Gus's hair, then kissed mine. "Even if she says no, I'll still let you come over, sweetheart. I fuckin' love you and I know Gus does too."

I smiled. "Almost forgot about that. Your mom was never mad. She was just concerned."
"Your mom wanted to kill me." Gus laughed. "God, she fuckin' hated me. I bet she still does. Probably heard about me somewhere, recognized my name. I would still hate me if I was her."
"Yeah."
"You should go to sleep, baby."
"Okay." I rested my head on his chest. "Night, Gus."
"Night, baby. I love you."
