"Do you have any plans for the rest of the week?" Olivia asks.

"I'm going to New York to see Vance for Valentine's Day." I say.

"Ooh. How is he?" Olivia says.

"He's good, I guess." I say.

"You... guess?" Olivia asks.

"We just don't talk as much for some reason. He always claims it's because he's busy but I feel like it's something bigger than that. Like maybe there's someone else." I say.

"That guy is so in love with you, I doubt he'd even think about that. It's probably just the distance. He's in New York studying and you're literally everywhere else." Olivia says.

"Maybe." I say.

"Don't ruin a good thing over speculation." Olivia says.

"You're right." I say.

"I know." Olivia says.

I laugh and she smiles.

I hear a knock on the door and I get up. I open it and see Max.

"Hey." Max says.

"Hey, man." I say, letting him in.

"It's a V-Day party tonight, you wanna go?" Max asks.

"No." I say.

"Why not?" Max asks.

"I've got practice in like 30 minutes." I say.

"Party's not until 8." Max says.

"One, I'll probably be too tired. Two, I gotta finish my water sample project." I say.

"Holy fuck!" Max says.

"What?" I ask.

"I've got a song due tomorrow for class." Max says.

"Guess you're not going to that party either." I say.

"The hell if I'm not. All I gotta do is freestyle for a minute." He says.

"Oh really? Let me hear something." I say.

"Bet." He says scrolling on his phone.

Music starts playing and I nod my head.

"Vance always bitching, he can't take an L. Dirty bitch, he look like he smell. Keep talking shit imma empty these shells, got a 30 round clip. Imma let that bitch melt." Max says.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait." I say.

"What?" He asks pausing the music.

"Why are you dissing Vance? Vance Adams?" I ask.

"He's a weirdo. He's been trying to get with my sister after she told him a dozen times that she's not interested." He says.

"Doesn't he have a girlfriend? They're long distance or something." I say.

"I dunno about all that but he's a fucking creep." He says.

"So, you're not coming to the party with me?" He asks.

"No." I say.

"Fine then, stay inside like a miserable hag." He says.

"More like a responsible adult." I say.

"Boorriinngg." He says.

I chuckle and he smiles.
