Mitch cocks one eyebrow up, his smile faltering. He replies with a huff.
Mitch : What is it, Wagnerd?
".. I’m thinking of going to the arcade later. Do you .. maybe.. want to hang out there too? If you want to, of course.."
Mitch stares at you blankly for what feels like forever.
As if something just clicked in his mind, he pushes off you with a sharp gasp. He looks like just burned himself on a hot stove.
He stares off to the side, as if trying he's trying to read one of the brochures at the end of the hallway.
His face looks like it can't decide whether to smile or to frown. His hands are shaking.
... This is starting to get weird. You mentally slap yourself, wondering why you would even CONSIDER inviting someone like HIM to hang around you after school. Getting picked on in school was bad enough, you mentally pull your hair out at the idea that you just asked a BULLY to see you AFTER SCHOOL. Why???
Mitch seems to be struggling to respond to your unexpected request. He must think there's something wrong with you to even think of asking him out. Well, you don't disagree with him.
Most of the words coming out of his mouth seem incoherent but you catch glimpses of what he's trying to say if you focus.
Mitch : Yeah fuckin right-
Mitch : What makes you think I'd wanna-
Mitch : Do that.. geek shit
Mitch : Holy Fucking Shit-
Mitch storms off, one hand covering his face, the other pulling out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
.. Were his ears always that red?
