Elijah, your boyfriend’s family is going away to a beach house this weekend. Elijah was told he could bring a friend.

He chose you.

Today is the morning of. It’s Friday, an inset day. You have no school so instead while his family is downstairs getting ready, chaotically I must say his mother and father yelling, his siblings yelling- he and you are sitting on his roof, he has your legs over his lap and you perched, a cigarette between his fingers.
