“Oh! You’re Italian!” I drawled sarcastically, feigning shock. “See, I though you were Irish this whole time. My dreaded apologies.”

“Do I have to spell it out for you?” I snapped, irritation seeping into my tone. “L-E-A-V-E M-E T-H-E F-U-C-K A-L-O-N-E.”

“Hold on, hold on. Let me grab my notebook. Could you repeat that just a little slower? Kids this days, always in a rush.” Mercutio teased, smirking as he got a rise out of Marina.

“Sure, I’ll repeat it slowly so I can get my simple point across to dumbasses such as you.” I pinned him down with a harsh glare, repeating my earlier message at a lethargic speed that was clearly mocking him.

Mercutio didn’t even have his books with him, but pretended to be writing the whole thing out, patiently acting out every last letter. “Mercutio is a hot piece of ass?” He pretended to read it out, furrowing his brows in thought for extra emphasis. “I agree completely.”

I was ready to shove him off the desk and beat him to a pulp. “You just keep telling yourself that, Mercutio. Eventually, maybe that oversized ego of yours will be satisfied.”

“Okay, so far in my notes I have that Mercutio is a hot piece of ass, and that I should memorize this. Does that mean it’ll be on the next exam?” I kept up the act without faltering.

This time, I elected to ignore him completely and pull a huge chocolate chip cookie from my paper bag. Kill me now…

“How delightfully selfish of you.” I commented, finishing off my pizza.

I pointedly sidestepped the question by taking a large bite of the huge dessert, strands of dirty blonde hair falling in front of my face. My legs began to swing a little, releasing a small part of my pent-up energy.

“So what brings you here anyways? Fate? Destiny? The undeniable urge to make my day worse with your existence?”

I sighed slowly through my nose, making my exasperation clear. “The desire to skip PreCalc so I don’t punch the living daylights out of you in the middle of class.”

“Hey, I’m here for skipping first period! Look at us, syncing. Everyone loves a copycat.” I was throughly amused by this conversation. Annoying Marina was a lot more fun then I remembered it being.

Once again, I completely ignored his statement, nearly polishing off my cookie and reaching into my bag for a second.

“Sharing is caring, you know.” I taunted, eyeing the clock to see when I could leave.

“But I don’t care about you,” I said, voice dripping with false sweetness.
(G’morning)

(Morning! How’re you today?)

“You must. Come on! You even went and got detention just to spend a little time with me.” I gave her the same tone right back.

(Tired lol
Not sleeping until 5:30 was a mistake
You?)

“In your dreams,” I snorted, looking away again.

I’m sorry! Try and get some sleep tonight if you can. I’m doing okay, but I also just woke up.))

“You’re not in mine, but I’m in yours.” I winked for extra effect.

(Oof
Ah, I see
Hope your day goes well)

“Yeah, my dreams of shooting you trough the head,” I fired (no pun intended) back, polishing off the last of my cookie.

“So you are dreaming about me. A step in the right direction.” I hummed, slowly running my hand through my hair.

“You’re worse than Romeo,” I told him harshly, gut twisting.

“Romeo’s just a big sap right now. You aren’t going to get very far talking to him.” I snorted, rolling my eyes. “Unlike me, the emotionless stud, an honorary Montague for my good looks.”

“Hilarious,” I said dryly, tossing my empty bag into the garbage.

“Aren’t I? Just another one of my good qualities.” I chewed my lower lip, looking out the window.
