Bella Leticia Zambada-García sat on the back porch of her house with Carl. The boy was playing some music quietly on his phone, texting Dominique with one hand as the other held a blunt. His best friend was the same except she was texting her new fling, Ivan. They had seen a lot of each other lately, partly due to the fact that Carl had been spending the night at her house for the past two weeks to get away from Franny's constant crying. He forgot what it was like to have a baby in the house it seemed and after the first week of sleepless nights he decided he couldn't take it. Bella welcomed her best friend with open arms of course, she loved when anyone would spend the night. She had grown to hate the utter silence in her home, every day it seemed to bother her even more that she was all alone.
Not completely alone but at night she was alone. During the day, while everyone was working or busy with family it was just her and her thoughts. He had even been making the girl breakfast, after having a talk with Dominique's dad about personal responsibility Carl had become quite a help in both the Gallagher's and Bella's home. Everything seemed to be going good for once, the best friends had gone almost a month without fighting. A new record. "Did Dominique get her dress for the wedding yet?" The girl asked, before taking a hit off the blunt in her hand.
"Nah. We're going Friday after school" He said before turning to look at the girl beside him. "How come?"
"I wanna make sure I don't get a dress like hers" The brunette explained, coughing lightly towards the end of her words.
"Good idea" Carl laughed, he could already imagine what a mess that would be and even worse he'd have to deal with both sides. Even after their truce, Dominique seemed to grow more jealous of Bella every day. Almost to the point where Carl couldn't dare utter his best friend's name. He had to hide the fact that he was spending the night at Bella's and couldn't even speak to her in Dominique's presence.
Usually Bella would be angry but with Ivan distracting each her, she didn't have the time to be angry. They would go hang out with their significant others during the day and come home to each other, smoking weed like always and eating junk food. "You gonna dress slutty?" Carl asked and his best friend rolled her eyes, ashing the thing in between her fingers before taking another hit.
"You hoping that I do or something?" Bella laughed, silently cursing herself for hoping he would flirt back and then cursing herself again because she knew he would.
"Maybe" Carl shrugged, leaning closer before blowing smoke in her face like she always hated. She slapped him in the shoulder, waving her hand around frantically in the air.
"Well I dunno about slutty but definitely super cute" The Latina mused and Carl stared at her, waiting for the girl to finish with what she had to say. "I mean my titties will probably be out but I'll still look cute!"
"I'm sure you will princess" Carl nodded and then he repeated his words with a smile on his face. "I'm sure you will"
