"Sorry I'm late, traffic was a nightmare from work," he spoke. Giving me a small wink as a 'just go with it'. I nodded slowly.

"I bet," I tried to play off the fact that a guy I've never met nor seen before in my life was trying to help me out of an awkward situation.

The then says quietly enough forms to hear. "I'm Geoff by the way,"

"Awsten," I said in the same tone. He smiled and nodded.

"I like your hair," he said politely. It took me a moment to remember my hair is dyed pink. Faded a lot from when it was first done.

"Thanks, I do too," I gave into a soft smile at the stranger. Geoff. I then decided to ask quietly, "how'd you know I was gay,,?"

"Your hair gives off vibes your in a pastel hoodie and there's a flag on your phone case," he played off. I pulled up my phone checking the case. It was black with a gay pride flag in the center. I forgot about that. I nodded in response.

We had a lovely 'date'. We got along nicely. By the end we decided on a second. And to this day, the guy I was supposed to go out with, never text me back. I have no idea what happened to him. But I have Geoff now.

"Yeah well- I actually texted you back and said sorry.." I told. Maybe I am still a little sour about that.

"True, but that's a shitty move. Be honest here."

"It is.." I agreed.

"Oh! Look at the time."

"If it's not 4:20 I'm going to hit you." I spoke turning to the clock. 1:30. "I'm going to hit you."

"No no wait wait!!" He argued. Raising himself into a little more defensive position. "We can go get Otto now," he smiled. My eyes widened.

"I thought we were leaving at 2??"

"No its pick up at 2." He told. I nodded. Then, of course, I jumped at/on him. Mainly on him. He started laughing again which made me do the same. The of us laughing on the couch. At this point in time I took the uno card and put it in my phone case. Its better this way. I need the chaotic power.

He wrapped his arms around me and held me down against him. I wiggled until he wrapped his legs around me as well. I fell into a short giggle before laying my head to the side and playing dead.

He kissed my cheek and giggled before letting me go. I tried to catch myself but I fell off the couch in this process. I found myself falling into a small giggle fit as I lay on the ground.

"I'm so sorry-" Geoff tried.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, common lets go," I smiled.

"O k a y" Geoff spoke getting up. I got up as well. Just a little slower. "Get in the car coward," he teased.

"O n l y if I can play music in the car." I teased back.

"Hmmmm," he pretended to think while he locked up the house. "I'll have to think about that one."

"Oh Geoff come on. I'm gonna pick music anyway."

"Of course you are,"
