Calls for Celebration!

he's a really sweet guy, and i had to give Aero a little something for his birthday! hope you had a great one, fops ^^

fruity little guy haha

did this, back in the day, cause i wanted a new icon tbh lol (drawn in nov. '20)

 It's not like I smiled when the teacher said Siggy would fail in math if she didn't study right now.

 Okay, maybe I did.

 But see, it's not like I want to see Sigrid failing. She's the smartest girl I've ever met! It's just that it would give me an excuse to talk to her. And that excuse had a name.

 It was a long journey to the front of the class, fighting dragons and worse things like the mean girls. I stopped in front of her and she looked up. She looked really sad. No, please, not the puppy eyes.

 STOP DESTROYING ME!

 Anyway, I started my well prepared speech:

 "Benny and math, so you're in?"

 Sigrid looked up, completely confused. Of course she was! Stupid, stupid, stupid!

 “I mean, um... Benny is good at math and he helps me with it. Do you wanna join? I-If you want to, of course. Because if you don’t then it’s fine but you know, I’m just being polite. And it’s not that I don’t want you there, I really do so yeah and I should be quiet now.”

 She laughed.

 Oh the sound of the gods.

 I mean what?

 “Okay, I’m in.”

 “Cool! I’m um, I’m gonna tell you the details before you go home. Eh, bye!”

 ~/~/~

 “What the... I can barely hear what the teacher says!”

 “But she’s smart! Come on dude, do it for me! You’re my best friend uh?”

 Benny sighed and crossed his arms.

 “And why should I do that?”

 “Because I once helped you with that fight thing, remember? You owe me this.”

 “You said I could pay you with macarroni and cheese.”

 “You haven’t paid me yet.”

 “I have! A week ago! We ate and you even made me use that stupid purple hat!”

 “...Please, Benny! She won’t be trouble!”

 “Fine. But don’t ask me anything!”

 ~/~/~

 “Here, let me clean it for you” I say as I grab a napkin and clean Sigrid’s nose. All of our books are open but we’re not studying, at least not yet. We’re at the new cafe and we ordered three cupcakes. I realize Benny can’t stop glaring at us and using words like “date” and “I’m not your cupid” every single time during our conversations. Please man, we’re studying. We just haven’t touched our books yet!

 “Isn’t that your father, Sigrid?” Benny points and I know he’s lying just to ruin our date. I mean, studies.

 “Oh crap” Okay, maybe he’s not lying. Sigrid tries to hide herself but her father comes walking straight to us. He’s a really scary person. He’s also a lawyer so it means he could sue me anytime and win. There’s just one word that comes through my mind as he walks: Swag. He’s got it.

 “Hello kids, what are you doing?” Damon Curtis asks and Sigrid smiles nervously to him. I understand you, Sigrid. I really do. She can’t answer because she opened her mouth so I say for her.

 “We’re studying!”

 He looks at our cupcakes and our closed books and nods.

 “Sure. What are you studying exactly?”

 “...Just a thing from today’s class, you know?”

 “Mhmm... and what thing exactly?”

 Sigrid and I look at Benny, who suddenly look up from his food and mumbles.

 “Wait, me? Are you asking me to remember something from class?”

 Sigrid facepalms (is that the correct word? I guess so) and I roll my eyes.

 “Yeah that... math thing. You know? A-algebra. B² minus 4ac, things like that...”

 Of course Damon Curtis was smarter than us and he took his daughter home so she could study with her parents. “Safer”, he said. There goes my chance.

"And I throw it all away

 I admit I slept a lot. But I'm a seventeen years old boy, what can I do? I have needs, and I needed to sleep. Jane told me she would have to solve something with her boss, and if I wanted to have lunch, I would have to cook it because I am "big enough". Right. But mommy, your food is the best food in the world! It didn't work, naturally. She just poked me again and left.

 In my dreams I was a brave prince, wearing a red prince cloth and one of those weird hats. The wind was messing with my hair but I still looked attractive. Oh please, I'm still a son of Venus! Anyway, I was climbing a mountain to save the beautiful cheerleader princess who was... me? Oh hey, that's my wig!

 "Save me, oh brave prince!"

 "I'm coming, beautiful princess!"

 I do look good as a girl. But I had no time to admire myself. I had to save the princess. When, suddenly, something huge fell on me. I was still alive, and I could feel it taking away the air from my lungs. It was heavy, it was huge, it was...

 "Is that an elephant?"

 "Ha ha ha, really funny" I've heard the sweet voice of Sigrid. As a real gentleman, I woke up. It doesn't mean I got up. I pretended I was sleeping.

 "Oh huge elephant, would you please get out?"

 "Uh... no. This is your punishment"

 "Please?"

 "No."

 "I'll kiss you"

 "Tempting, but no."

 "Sigrid, I feel a crick coming."

 "So?"

  I opened my bed table's drawer and handed her a small, red box.
