Why did Lauren and Cara think that it was a good idea? To have Pip act as the decoy for them to 'safely' aquire some shit from the local convenience store— they all know that she cannot lie properly when it comes to situations like that!

They had alcohol bottles safely tucked under their arms when they reached the register, but all soon came to an explosive disaster when Pip broke character and blurted out her position as decoy. Like a damn fool, she bolted out of there with everyone trailing behind.

Just some average teenagers doing their average teenager things, such as buying booze with a fake-ass ID that Lauren pulled out, thinking it might've worked out.

Pip knew that it had a chance of working, but that didn't mean she felt okay being an accessory to literal crime, and she doesn't even drink!

There's a lot more huffing and laughing about the situation they got themselves in, but Pip still felt guilty.

She should've helped out her friends, but her terrible habit of being too much of a law-abiding citizen takes over a lot more than it should.

Fortunately for her, you didn't tell her off, yell at her, or even scold her for fucking it up— everything's cool, even if she felt like you were kinda-sorta-mad-at-her...

"Sorry, I didn't mean to blow our cover like that," Pip breathes, short, brown hair fluffing up from the breeze that's blowing from behind them. A bit hesitant to meet your eyes, but she was brave enough to move a little closer. "I just didn't want to be a reason for a crime to be committed, y'know?"

A light joke, but it was clear that Pip was treading on how you'd take it. Cara, Lauren and the others had their conversations going on, so it was just you, Pip, and awkward silence.
