'shut it, tozier. i'm just trying to enjoy my summer without you flirting with me'
'i'm not flirting with you, i'm just being extra friendly to someone who is extra attractive'

lying in my cold bed alone in the darkness, I thought about what richie had said to me four days ago;
do you think he actually meant it, or was it just another one of his crazy pick up lines?
but, it wasn't crazy, wasn't crazy at all
he meant it, and not in a pickup line sort of way
is the richie tozier catching feelings for me,
or am i catching feelings for him?
getting up out of my bed, I looked at my clock on the wall
'9:45 am'
it read
'i should get up and ready now' I thought to myself
it was sunday, which meant that richie was at the arcade
part of me wanted to see him,
but another part of me didn't
you know what, maybe I could hang out with eddie today
i decided that that was what I was going to do
before opening the door to my room, I opened the blinds in my room to let some light in the enclosed room, and then I creeped out to go to the family phone
even though we didn't ever act like a proper 'family' did, we still had a family phone
picking up the bright yellow phone off the wall in the kitchen, I dialled eddie's number
ring, ring, ring
he picked up after three rings, 'hello?'
hearing the tiredness from his voice, I could easily tell he just woke up
'hey eddie, it's me, victoria; do you want to hang out with me today? I don'r really care where or when'
the line went silent for a second, 'okay, meet me at the library in an hour' he said before hanging up.
walking back to my room, I noticed that the house was completely empty, 'oh' was all I said
when I got to my room, I went straight to my closet and picked out a pair of blue denim knee-length shorts and a yellow shirt with no sleeves. I wrapped a few necklaces around my neck, and decided I didn't want to wear any rings today
when I was done with my outfit, I walked out of my room again to go to the bathroom
picking up my toothpaste and toothbrush, I looked in the mirror
'hm,' I thought to myself, 'why would anyone like a girl like me?'
when I was done brushing my teeth, I quickly brushed through my hair and braided it so it wouldn't be in my face the whole day
