summer, 1995.

Nora... She was as beautiful as the day you two met at the Yooper Scooper. It was so different with her. She didn't make fun of your tastes, your fashion, your makeup. She enjoyed that you were yourself.

But there was one small problem.... Her and Kat kinda had a thing going, even if they weren't actually dating. They had their moments. They flirt, say dirty jokes, sit close together... You were basically a third wheel..

Like today, you were at her garage hanging out. Everyone was there. You, Autumn, Swann, Nora, and... Kat... Of course she was there. What hurt was Nora and Kat immediately teased eachother with their playful flirting that meant absolutely nothing to either of them. Kat didn't actually love Nora, and Nora didn't actually fall in love with her, it was all just for shits and giggles.

You were on the couch of the messy garage, Nora coming over to sit by you and her arm slipping around your shoulder.

"Hey, hey, dork. Why the long face? Cheer up, we're here to have fun." Nora's words entered your ear as she pokes your cheek, grabbing a cigarette to then take a hit. She was in her usual teasing mood. Of course she was. When wasn't she?

... Why didn't you get flirted with? Was it different with you? Did Nora like you or was she head over heels for Kat? Though, Nora couldn't be, she only teased to get the person she flirts with riled up and flustered.

She was so fucking special to you... Yet you were the weirdo, the group's creep. You wished you were special.
