Jojo's: Neon Trees chapter 0.5
Nim left his school and headed to his sister's house. It was a bit of a walk, but he didn't mind. He appreciated not having to take the bus anymore, though he wasn't a fan of how he got that privilege. he remembered that night vividly; he came home to find his father, his chest twisted and deformed, his eyes lifeless.
"Hey Nimmy," an angelic voice broke the young man from his disassociation.
"O-oh, h-hi, Benny," he said nervously, "Sh-shouldn't you be on the bus?"
"I told my dad that we had a group project to work on, so I was gonna be at your place, and he could pick me up later."
"B-but we d-dont..." His tanned skin turned deep red on his cheeks. "Oh."
"Glad you caught on, Nimmy," she said with a slightly flirtatious tone. "Now, let's get going, we have a lot of 'studying' to do before Officer Roxy comes back home."
"y-y-Yes ma'am!" Benny grabbed him by the hand, and they ran to his sister's place, chuckling and giggling all the way. They barely paid attention to their surroundings, so much so that Nim barely noticed the large fruit falling towards Benny's head. As soon as he did, he pulled her to his chest and clutched the strange fruit in his hand.
"Well, don't mind if I do," Benny rubbed her face into Nim's chest, which made him shiver. She looked at the fruit in his hand, "You know, with that weird fruit in between your six fingers, you kinda look like an album cover."
"y-y-You r-really think so." He said, loosening his grip on her, "Thanks, Benny." Benny was the only person who didn't react strangely to his central polydactylism. Most people would stare at his two middle fingers before quickly looking away, or, in the case of some of his other classmates, they'd use it as more fuel to mock him, but the moment Benny first met him, she thought it was awesome. "... d-d-Do you wanna split the fruit with me?" He asked sheepishly.
"Hell yeah, mystery fruit," Benny said with a goofy grin. They entered the house and sat down in the kitchen. Nim cut the fruit in half and they both took a bite.
"w-Wow, that is sweet, sweet, tastes more like a candy than an actual fruit."
"Yeah, it does, but I can't seem to stop eating it."
"Me n-neither." In seconds, the fruit was gone. "Shit, we're gonna regret that later."
"That's a future Benny and Nimmy problem." Her smile was contagious. "Now, I for one, think it's 'study' time."
"I think that's a great idea, Nim here has been struggling with his physics homework, haven't ya bud?" Roxanne Sting said, putting a hand on Nim's shoulder
"...y-Yeah, sis."
"Why don't I go grab your physics textbook for ya while I grab the paperwork I came for?"
"Sounds g-great, sis."
"Good," she said as she headed to her office, then to Nim's room. "Oh, and keep in mind, you two, that due to recent events, I've put cameras in the house. I obviously haven't put any in Nim's room for privacy reasons, but they pick up sound really well. Keep that in mind." With that, she left.
"...Well, that's just fantastic." Benny said, a little disappointed, "Well, I guess we should actually do some studying then, huh?" Her smile still infectious.
"y-Yeah," and so they began studying physics, unaware of the madness that awaited them that night.
