"what took you so long!?" mike exclaims as el exits the classroom, "you said class ends at 12."

"sorry! i was packing up!" she exclaims as he wraps his arm around her shoulder and kisses the side of her hair, "let's go eat fucking fluffy pancakes now."

she giggles as he goes to hold her hand tightly.

"i want to drink that delicious matcha drink." she says excitedly as he nods, "sounds great."

he moves his hand from his hand to wrap around her waist and at the contact, she leans closer to him they continue to walk.

"remember thunder is going with you tonight." she reminds as he nods, "i know. you gonna miss him?"

"definitely." she nods as he chuckles, "sorry babe, but it's my weekend with him."

she shakes her head, "you better send me pictures."

"or..." he trails off and holds the door open for her, "you could come visit him at my house."

"your house?" she asks, "that your parents and sister live in? no."

"why no?"

"parents! that is already freaking me out. i did a lot to run away from them at your game last time with storm meowing at me for running away from you." she says making him burst out into laughter, "they're not scary. they're really nice."

"how nice?"

"ice cream as a bribe nice." he nods.

"that's why you're such a big baby!" she exclaims as he huffs out in anger, "am not."

"you are!" she sings, "but it's okay, baby. i still love you for who you are even though people don't see the secret big baby side of you." she kisses his cheek teasingly as he holds back a laugh, "god, i hate you but i fucking love you at the same time."

"such a big baby," she coos to tease him more making him poke her waist.

she yelps, "hey!"

he snorts, "who's the big baby now, huh?"

"not me." she huffs loudly making him laugh and kiss her hair.

he grins, "definitely you." he nods making her roll her eyes.

"stop taking so long!" mike whines as el rushes out of her classroom, "i'm here, i'm here! we can go have fun now!"

"you're always taking forever, babe." he says and helps her with her books since she was stumbling.

"where should we go?" she asks and smiles at him for helping her stack her books.

"let's go to the playground, i wanna go on the swings." el giggles to herself as he gives her a look, "you're 20."

"hey! they have no age limit for the playground!" she exclaims with a wide smile.

"they kinda do." he says, "it's ages—"

"shut up! i weigh the same as a twelve year old so it's fine!" she cuts him off as he chuckles, "alright, you win. you are in the age limit of the fucking swings."

she nods and sticks out her tongue, "damn right, big baby."

he gasps and points at her, "panda face! i swear, i gotta take a photo of you and put it side by side to compare."
