“Theo! Jesus, you scared me.” Mandy wiped her mouth, annoyed.

Theo grabbed Mandy’s milkshake and took a sip. “Ladies,” he said through a mouthful of strawberry.

“Theo,” said Beck sarcastically. “What are you doing here?”

Theo raised an eyebrow. “I could ask you two the same question. Skipping school, are we?”

“Eh. Maybe a little bit.” admitted Beck. “But it’s gym class, Theo…”

“Oh, I see.” Theo laughed. “If they required gym class in college I’d skip it too.”

Mandy snorted. “You skip everything, Theo.”

“And what makes you say that?”

“Otherwise you wouldn’t always be home annoying me with your stupid drumset!”

“Oh, come on, it must be nice to have the sounds of rock caressing your eardrums from next door!”

“Ew.”

Theo shrugged and slurped at Mandy’s milkshake. “So, what’s the occasion ladies? I know only the toughest of situations requires a milkshake.”

“Well, there’s this guy, see-” started Beck, but Theo cut her off.

“Lalalalala!” he yelled, fingers in his ears. “Don’twannahearlalalalala!”
