Vinnies's POV

i love writing poetry it's so fun, now i see why ol loves writing music so much its so therapeutic, she said it only has to be 6 lines and i just finished line 3 so we're on the home stretch, it's been a few days since i dropped the collage off at her apartment, a few days of flirty messages back and forth, even a couple snapchat's mostly her trying to figure out the app, which she now refuses to delete because it is apparently 'admitting defeat to the app' but i am enjoying it anyway.

but now i'm stuck i can't find a word that rhymes with sorry, and none of the girl's are here to help me out, so i guess i'll just ask the guys since they all happen to be next door in the gym. i walk in pen and paper in hand, "hey guys, i need your help" they all look to me pausing whatever they're doing, "what rhymes with sorry?" they all share the same confused look, "uh why?" jack finally asks, "it's for my poem to ollie i just need three more lines" i answer, "worry?" dorry?" "laurie?" "ferry?" "mcflurry?" calvin's answer makes us all laugh, "what i'm hungry?" he shrugs, "you know what I'm going to use mcflurry, it will make her laugh" i chuckle whilst leaving the gym to finish my poem.
