trapped

Don’t kill me, I have a child.

I'll think about sparing you. No promises though.

"Everyone gets rejected, Caden, it’s just something you’re gonna have to learn to live with, besides, it makes it all the more special when that one person doesn’t." Ollie smiled, but truth be told he rarely got rejected, he’d just been lucky that way. He pushed Caden’s shoulder playfully, catching him before he could fall anywhere and wrapped an arm around the boy. "My number one rule; Always wear a condom" he smirked. "That’s the spirit" Ollie grinned, patting Caden’s back. "You’ll be fighting the girls off in no time, I mean, are you only into girls?" Oliver asked, his eyebrows raised. 

"But I don't want to," he whined obnoxiously, pouting. "Well, obviously. We don't need any baby Ollies running around. Now that would be a nightmare," he teased, throwing his arm around Oliver. Caden's eyebrows rose a fraction, and he bit his lip, unsure of how to answer. He was sure he liked girls, but boys? He hadn't truly given it much thought. "I-I don't know, I think so?"

That’s not fair! I’m not nice.

My point exactly. I have a flawless plan

Are you planning to exact revenge on Mick with a fork? Are you going to take down the rest of us, too? This sounds like the plot of a Lifetime movie unfolding.

I think I'll spare you if you're nice. 

Are you kidding? The dullest of knives hurt the most. 

Think of it this way: If you heard someone got killed with a knife, it'd sound really painful, while a fork would be like, oh, that's alright. Not too bad. 

A fork? Jesus Cupcake, you’re a savage.

A knife is way too gruesome. A fork doesn't seem that bad

"That looks like enough food to feed an African village."

I’d be careful. Mick seems to have a few homicidal tendencies. Carry a weapon with you.

I'll bring a fork and poke his eyes out if need be.

Does he? That’s cute. Are you sure Jae didn’t die? I swear he did. Shame. Hm… Maybe you’re right. Do you have some kind of death wish?

Mhm. Maybe his parents killed him after, who knows? Maybe I do, maybe I don't. I guess you'll never know. 

          "I didn’t kill anybody."          

"I still have a feeling once the snow melts we might find something like, I don't know, a body maybe."

Caden grinned as she spoke, his bottom lip snagging on his teeth. "That I've been told before," he said with a chuckle, feeling a blush creeping up his neck.

Mickey loves me too much to almost kill me, I'm convinced. Levi, he didn't die. I distinctly remember dragging him away while you were all shitfaced. But I have to get the panties straight from her drawer, otherwise it wont have the same effect. 

"God, I really hate sarcasm, it’s ruined flirting" he sighed dramatically. "Just go with it, and then if they’ll either go along in the end, or just not. Rejection isn’t the worst thing you know." he smiled. "Well I mean, not here" he bit his lip. "Okay maybe once here, but like, in pubs and stuff, and yes it’s highly unsanitary and I don’t recommend it, but the point is, well I forget what the point is, but just stop thinking you’re not good enough Caden, because that’s the most untrue thing I’ve ever heard, okay?"

"Sarcasm is reflex for me, shush," he half scolded, pursing his lips. "Last time I got rejected I was a hot mess for, like, two weeks. The wounds are still fresh...ish." Caden sighed, pressing his hands to his temples. "Ollie, did you pay any attention at all in sex ed? I'm going to go ahead and answer that for you with a firm no," he joked, hoping to draw the attention away from himself. "I know, I know. I'm good enough," he nodded, though he didn't exactly believe what he'd said.

"It is fun! Just you wait and see, it’s basically the best thing" he smirked. Ollie chuckled lightly, with a shake of his head. "Okay, maybe not that blunt" he smiled, patting Caden’s shoulder. "But like, maybe a ‘hey I like you’ or something" he shrugged. "I mean bluntness works for me, but flirting is important too, like if you can feel somebody flirting with you, maybe then just come out and say it, if that’s really what you want" Oliver shrugged again, because he wasn’t the best person to give advice. "I mean I’ve walked up to plenty of people, and within twenty minutes we’re in the bathroom, you know.." he wiggled his eyebrows with a laugh. 

Caden quirked an eyebrow, but allowed Oliver to continue. "See, I think that's my problem. I shut everyone down with sarcasm, and that kind of clouds my thoughts. Like, are they flirting with me, or are they planning my downfall? The two are kind of hard to distinguish between," he said with a nod, but what Oliver said next made Caden gasp. "You have sex with people in the bathroom? That sounds so unsanitary I might vomit."
