“shut up micah.” marisol stuck her tongue out at him, holding back a giggle. “you can’t just stop in the middle of the street like that, you’re going to get us killed,” she whined, reaching over and shoving his shoulder. “fuck off, i’m not going to remind you that i don’t want you to lie about how much you pretend to hate me every day,” she teased. “i did not ask. never once did i say ‘hey micah, have you ever fucked a girl in my sorority in the library?’, never. i asked if you’d ever been to the library. a simple yes would’ve done the trick.” rolling her eyes, marisol pushed the car door open, “of course i’m coming with you.”

he leaned onto the center console to get closer to her, “i’m not pretending.” although, he was. micah had just grown accustomed to teasing the girl, even if he did take it too far sometimes. “fine, yes ! i have been to the library is that what you wanted to hear ?” he swung open the door on his side and slid out of his seat. after he stood up, he placed both of his hands on the top of the car and poked his head in to finish what he was saying. “well then, in that case, quit talking and lets go.” once he was out of the way again, he shut the door as quietly as he could so that if any one was around them, it wouldn't draw attention to them. micah walked around the front of the car to marisol’s side to meet her, “i’m actually kind of surprised you’re so willing to do this.”

marisol giggled as micah swatted her away. “ninety percent?” she repeated, eyebrows shooting up. “that means you like ten percent of the things i say, and that’s way higher than i was expecting. i like those odds.” she hit his arm as he stopped the car, her mouth dropping open. “micah! what are you doing?” after flinching slightly when the car behind them honked, she let out the breath she was holding when micah finally started to drive again. “but to answer your question, no, not today. but i figured it was only a matter of time.” her nose scrunched up in disgust as he spoke. “gross, i don’t want to know that. you’re disgusting.”

“yes, but as you continue to speak .. the higher the percentage gets.” micah laughed at marisol’s reaction. “chill ! it’s fine !” he looked over at her just in time to notice that she was holding her breath, which only made him laugh more. “remind me to tell you everyday, even though i probably won’t forget but .. just in case.” micah shrugged a shoulder as he pulled the car off to the side of the road and put it in park. “well, you asked and i was just giving you an answer. so, that’s on you,” he turned the car off and took the keys out. his hands fell in his lap and he turned to face marisol, “you know, you don’t have to come in if you don’t want to.”

marisol rolled her eyes as micah brushed off her question. a smile spread across her lips as his tone changed. “i can’t help it. you’re just so damn cute,” she teased, reaching over and pinching his cheek. “i have to flirt with you. isn’t it obvious i’m just dying to date you? and frankly, i’m sick of you denying you don’t feel the same way,” she matched his sarcasm. “alright, but just know that if you get me in trouble in anyway it’ll be all your fault and i’ll never forgive you. have you even been in the library before to know how to sneak in?” 

micah raised a hand off the steering wheel to swat her hand away that was touching his cheek. “i know i basically asked for that one but i really do hate ninety percent of the things that come out of your mouth, marisol.” he quickly stopped the car in the middle of the street to look over at her, “have a mentioned today that i fucking hate you ?” the car behind them began to beep their horn, so micah faced the road again and drove on. “we’re not going to get in trouble ? don’t underestimate me. and yes, as a matter of fact i have been in the library a couple of times. i actually hooked up with one of your sorority sisters here, so ..”

mariisols:

marisol heard micah mutter something, but couldn’t make out what he said. “what was that?” she asked, knowing he didn’t really want her to hear. she turned to glance at him and noticed the smile tugging at his lips. “you were? that’s adorable. even if you won’t admit it i know you love me.“ she scrolled through her phone to find a song to play. "so where are we starting with this scavenger hunt?”

“hmm?” he peeked over at her and quickly looked back at the road, “i didn’t say anything.” micah smirked to himself until he heard her next statement and his expression turned to disgust. “ew. shut up, marisol. i do not and never will. stop trying to flirt with me, honestly,” his tone was as sarcastic as ever. “anyway, i hope you’re ready because there is no going back now.” micah kept his attention straight ahead as he spoke to her, “we’re starting at the library .. which is closed now, so we’re probably going to have to sneak in the back.”

mariisols:

marisol bounded down the stairs of her building, excited to see what the scavenger hunt was. she was friends with a few of the pledges and was excited to be able to hold it over them that she knew more about the shit they had to do then they did. stuffing her hands in her pocket, she walked over to where micah was parked. “hey,” she said hopping in the front seat, she immediately reached for the aux code, yanking it out of his phone and plugging hers in. “and i expected you to be here before you even sent the text. obviously.”

“yep, just make yourself at home,” he mumbled under his breathe almost inaudible after she removed his phone from the aux cord. micah tried his best not to laugh at her comment but a smile still pulled on the corner of his lips. “i was,” he admitted. micah then turned the key in the ignition and slowly merged his car into the closest lane en route to their first destination.

“fuck yeah get me it for my birthday, it’d be such a great present. true, you never have good ideas.”

“i’m going to get it, no joke. i’m going to go google how to get one as soon as i can. you have to at least pretend that you have no idea when i give it to you. wow, you couldn’t even have humored me and said i had a few in my day.”

[mlcah]

elijch:

“oh calm down micah, you’re okay. please, it’d be fuckin’ epic.”

“for now, maybe. i can’t make any promises. alright, well, at least i know what to get you for your next birthday. this is my first good idea in a while.”

[mlcah]

mariisols:

“i will.” she rolled his eyes at the face he pulled, acting like he didn’t love her. marisol’s sat up straighter, filling with pride as miach gave in. “you’re so good to me,” she drawled teasingly as he returned to the couch. the second he flopped down next to her, she grabbed his arm and wrapped it around her, forcing him to cuddle with her. “oh fuck off,” she said with a small smile. “i can’t help it, i just can’t keep a guy. but who needs one when i have you in my life? i’ve never met a guy that would watch the notebook fifteen times with me. you’re better than any boyfriend out there,” she teased, preparing for him to shove her away.

“remember this the next time you wanna give me shit for letting you down,” micah shot her a serious look until she finished speaking and his demeanor changed. the corner of his lips turned into a minor grin, “wow,” he shook his head in disbelief. micah would have tried to take his arm back yet he wasn’t in the mood to fight with marisol. “not two minutes ago, i was going on and on about how much i hate you .. and now you’re saying i’m better than a boyfriend ? what kind of boyfriends have you had ?” he turned back his attention to the television, using his free hand to control the remote --the other still around her. “you’ll regret that, too. i’m sure i’ll piss you off sometime in the future where you’re going to wish you never said it.”
