5. Bad Habit

wanted me I wish I knew, I wish I knew you wanted me. I wish I knew, I wish I knew you wanted me. What you, ooh, uh, what you do? Made a move, coulda made a move, If I knew I'd be with you. Is it too late to pursue? I bite my tongue, it's a bad habit.

my heart starts beating fast as Robin starts walking closer to me. Why is he starting to freak me out by doing nothing all of a sudden?

"Hey friend." he said in what sounded like a mocking tone. "Hi Robin." I responded.

I see him holding something in his hand. I hope it's not a pen, we do not need to recreate that scene from earlier.

"well i gotta go, good luck with your old man back at home." he winked once more and as he walked away he put something in my-

well his sweater pocket.

I turned to look at him confused but he was already gone.

I found Gwen and we started walking home. "where on earth were you last night, you were lucky dad fell asleep and didn't bother to check on us this morning." oh thank god i'm off the fucking hook.

one less ass beating for me. "I was just hanging out with some friends." I said blankly fiddling with whatever Robin gave me.

"yeah and did you steal their clothes too." she said looking up and down at an outfit i would probably never wear. "It's just Robin." I shrugged off.

"Just Robin?! Robin is seriously one of the most popular people in school." How come everyone knows about this Robin kid but me?

-

it's starting to get dark and i've just been hiding in my room reading all day. it's starting to get colder as winter is beginning to slowly take over.

I push my blankets off me and I reach over to my night stand where my open book was. I flinch when I hear something fall on the floor. I look at the night stand and everything is there.

I look down and I see a vape pen. it's the thing that was in my pocket. I quickly pick it up and there's a blue sticky note on it.

'it's a bad habit, but it could help you :)'

Robin, seriously. a fucking vape pen really. first he gives me weed and now he gives a vape pen like are you kidding me he's not about to get me hooked onto drugs-

I took another drag of the pineapple flavored vape. It's the weekend and I'm walking over to Billie's house because I'm tired of being home. There is also another party tonight so why not go.

"I desperately don't want to." Billy said as he finished getting dressed. "It'll be cool I promise." I said throwing the vape at him and he caught it.

"Did your dad ever find out about the other night?" Billy asked. "yeah and he was fine with it." I said. He looks at me confused, "because he still has no idea." I finished and he nodded his head taking a hit from the vape then tossed it back to me.

"You know what I think we should try."

"if you say alcohol i'm out." he cut me off and i scoff. "That's exactly what I was going to say." I said disappointed standing up from his bed.

"Since when did you become such a rebel?" Billy said in a fake awe as he opened his room door. "I don't know but I'm not hating it." I answered and we went on our way to the party.

-

five shots in. I am five shots in. It feels like the entire room is spinning in circles. This feels way different than being high. Instead of feeling tired and relaxed, I feel like I have the most energy in the world yet if I move too much I might yack everywhere.

Also Bruce made me chug two beer cans with him to see who could finish it the fastest, I surprisingly won both times. the first round he was swearing that he was gonna beat me and then he didn't so he asked for round two, won again.

I guess you can say I got it from my dad. I'm joking.

I'm standing outside the house needing to breathe a little. I step on crunchy leaves enjoying the sound of them. I hear footsteps from behind me walking oddly close to me.

I turn around and I see a pretty boy. "yup take it all in." he said and i didn't care i kept staring, "i should be telling you that since you claim to be so in love with me." I said turning back around to walk.

he quickly grabs me and pulls me back, "where are you going." he asked with a concerned look on his face. "away i guess." I said with a little slur in my voice. I haven't seen Robin the whole night. Billy was hanging out with some other kids from our school and I was with Bruce the whole night until now.

"Are you alright you don't sound like you." he said concerned and i shrugged it off. "I feel great." I slurred again. He grabbed my wrist and we started walking.

"woah, where are we going?" I said smiling, getting excited. "We're going to my house."

-

We finally got to his house and I sat down with a huff on his bed. "Why were you drinking tonight?" he asked, sitting down near his head board while I stayed at the edge of the bed.

"why not." I answered blankly, after a few seconds I broke out into laughter. "Seriously though Finn i don't want anything bad to happen to you so please don't do this again." he pleaded and i smirk.

"Sounds like somebody got down with a bug, i think people would call it a love bug." I smirked while sitting up. "What do you mean?" he asked.

trust i know exactly what he means, i just was to see what he'll do next.

"any normal person would be like oh, Finney? fuck that kid he's a f*g that could rot in a ditch, but you actually give a fuck about me." I slurred my words crawling over the bed to sit next to him.

"well yeah because i'm your friend Finn, we may have met not too long ago but that doesn't mean i can't give a fuck about you." he defended.

"Well that too to me just sounds like you want to make out." I said honestly. hey they say alcohol brings out sober thoughts.

"Finn, you don't know what you're talking about, your head isn't clear." he said, shifting his body to face more towards me.

i lifted my head, "really Robin? because i think this is the clearest my head has ever been in my whole life." and with that.

I kissed him.
