M 🐱 is typing...


Cody shoved his phone in his pocket and made his way through the crowd towards his best friend's locker. He wasn't sure if he should still call Maxx his best friend after his "confession" of sorts, but he didn't think now would be the best time to bring it up. He made a mental note to ask about it during lunch.

He had half the mind to yell out some inside joke of their's to get his friend's attention, only to  decide he'd love the look of shock upon Maxx's face. Cody knew that he didn't have to walk as quietly as he was, one of the perks for being in a place fulled to the brim with noisy people, yet continued to sneak up behind his friend as if he were a spy taking down an enemy.

Cody stood up from his crouch and got ready to jump onto Maxx's back, stopping only when he saw that he was typing a message to someone. Cody wasn't able to catch who the contact was, but he was able to make out a bit of the message.

"Shut up, yellow is a good color! If we're talking ugly colors, blue is up on that list :p"

Cody quickly snuck one of his arms around Maxx's shoulders and slammed the locker shut with his free hand. "Whatcha doing, water boy?" He could feel a couple of people sending glares at the two, knowing the rumors one of them would spread through the school.

Maxx jumped and tried to lock his phone, only to have it slip out of his hand and plummet towards the floor. If having Cody find out that his snapchat crush was Maxx wasn't bad enough, having to explain why his phone was shattered sure was.

Both to Maxx's relief, and fright, his phone landed into Cody's open book bag. If there were any a time to be thankful for his friend's habit of slinging his bag off his shoulder, now would be the time. "What the hell man, you almost gave me a heart attack!" Maxx placed a hand over his heart and let out a sigh of relief when he realized he had manged to at least close out of Snapchat.

"That was the point, you balloon. By the way," Cody handed Maxx his phone back and tapped the screen. "Nice background." Maxx's eyes drifted down to the photo of him on top of Cody's back, smacking Zach with a pillow. "Totally forgot we did that. How long ago was that, like-"

"Three years. It's buffoon." Maxx made sure to lock his phone and shoved it deep inside his pocket, choosing to ignore his friend's look of confusion. "2006, first day of summer. I remember because I cracked my skull on the chandelier at-"

"Right. We all thought you were gonna die because of that huge shard of glass in your head. You still have the scar, right?" Cody kicked at his bag and leaned against the wall of lockers, attempting to talk over the bell.

Maxx instinctively ran a hand through his hair and picked at the nearly gone scar. He could remember not feeling anything in his head, except of course when the doctors decided that they had to staple the gash closed. He could swear that sometimes as he were drifting off to sleep, he would get a whiff of the pus and sweat.

Maxx gently pushed Cody off of his locker and grabbed his things, only providing him with a slight nod. "Hey, we gotta go to class. I'll try and catch you during third period if I'm feeling well enough. Don't do dumb shit without me, please." He shot Cody a playfully stern look as he backed away and into the slowly dispersing crowd.

"Wouldn't dream of it, buckaroo!" Cody let out a loud laugh, picked his own bag off the ground and made his way towards class, stopping only when he heard his phone give off a chime.

He fished it out of his pocket and opened the notification, eyes quickly scanning the message.
