You need to listen to this rap! Trust me you won't be disappointed!

"For the love of god can you stop?!" Bennett yelled while rolling his eyes.

"Guys?" Jordan piped in.

"No! Not until you tell me what's up your ass because you never act like this!" I yelled getting in his face.

"Guys?" Jordan stuck his hand up but we didn't even acknowledge him. We were too busy yelling at each other.

"Why can't you just leave me alone!" His nostrils flared as he glared at me. His eyes felt like ice, Declan should be proud. Instead he's watching us fight with a bag of popcorn.

"Oh I know!" I stuck up my index finger.

"What?" Bennett's eyebrows furred as he looked at me, probably from the sound of my voice changing.

I sneered at him, "You got the devils staff up your ass!" I poked his chest.

"That was good." Declan commented.

Bennett's eye twitched as he looked down at me, "No! I've got you stuck up my ass!"

I gasped, hitting my chest "Are you calling me a pain in the ass?"

"I'm glad we're on the same page." He rolled his eyes while crossing his arms.

I can't handle him anymore- Woah! Let's rewind to the beginning so you can understand how we got here... Errr....Errr....Errr..

"I don't think this is a good idea." Jordan muttered while trying to walk in the opposite way I was dragging him.

I scoffed, "What are you talking about?" I laughed. "We're just going to talk to him, not like this could get any worse, right?" I stopped walking for a second. Then I shook my head, "Yeah we'll be fine."

"That's what I'm worried about." He muttered under his breath.

I have a plan. Me and Jordan are going to go talk to Bennett and work everything out, after we talk it out we'll be good and everything will go back to normal. Do I even know what normal is anymore?.. Anyways I knew if I told Jordan that I was taking him to talk it out with Bennett then he wouldn't have come, so I went to his house and told him I wanted to go get food with him. I didn't have to say anything else, he was already getting his shoes on and grabbing his wallet.

I drove to McDonald's and got him chicken nuggets then drove to the house. He didn't even notice until I parked the car, and by then I was already dragging him towards the house.

I opened the front door and yelled "Bennett get your butt down here!" There was yelling and banging before Declan walked into the living room dragging Bennett by his ear.

"Ow! Ow! That hurts! Let me go!" Declan let him go and Bennett grunted. He glared at him while fixing his clothes. "There were other ways to drag me down here."

Declan laughed walking into the kitchen, "Yeah but they weren't as fun!"

With Declan gone we stood in the middle of the living room staring at each other. No one talked and I'm pretty sure Jordan wasn't even blinking. "Oh." I let Jordan go and apologized. "Sorry." He nodded. The silence was broken with the sound of something popping. A couple minutes later and Declan came back with a bag of popcorn and some soda.

We all turned and looked at him strangely. "What?" He sounded defensive. "This is going to end bad and I just wanted a snack to go with it." He shrugged walking past us and sitting down on the couch.

We didn't look away from him though. He got comfortable then looked up at us, "Continue."

I looked away from Declan and focused on Bennett. How do I start? What should I say? Tell me what has you treating me like a beanbag chair?.. Nah, to straight forward. Maybe- "Are you going to speak or can I leave?"

"Rude." I coughed and covered my mouth as I did. He rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. I took a step forward and cleared my throat, "Me and Jordan," I motioned to Jordan and myself. "Would like to talk to you."

"You already are." He raised his eyebrow at me.

I closed my eyes for a second trying to keep my inner bitch from coming out. I opened my eyes and looked at him, "We would like to know what has made you upset-"

"No." He shook his head.

"W-what?" I stuttered. "I'm sorry I don't think I heard you correctly, could you repeat that please?"

He rolled his eyes, his slouch lowering even more. "No."

"Why not?" I looked at him strangely.

"Because I don't want to." He rolled his eyes and uncrossed his arms. He stuffed his hands in his pockets and looked like he would rather be talking to Raymond then talking to me right now.

"Is it because you saw me and Jordan kissing-"

"Wait! You guys kissed again?" Declan's eyes were wide as he looked between me and Jordan. "I didn't think this was going to be that juicy." He muttered to himself while going for some more popcorn.

I rolled my eyes looking back at Bennett, "Is it because you saw us kissing-"

"No!" He shook his head.

"Then what is it?" I yelled getting frustrated.

His hands raked through his hair as he groaned, "I'm not going to tell you." His voice raised a little.

"Tell me!" I yelled while pulling my hair.

...Err.. Errr... Errr... and that brings us back to where we were, enjoy!

"For the love of god can you stop?!" Bennett yelled while rolling his eyes.

"Guys?" Jordan piped in.

"No! Not until you tell me what's up your ass because you never act like this!" I yelled getting in his face.

"Guys?" Jordan stuck his hand up but we didn't even acknowledge him. We were too busy yelling at each other.

"Why can't you just leave me alone!" His nostrils flared as he glared at me. His eyes felt like ice, Declan should be proud. Instead he's watching us fight with a bag of popcorn.

"Oh I know!" I stuck up my index finger.

"What?" Bennett's eyebrows furred as he looked at me, probably from the sound of my voice changing.

I sneered at him, "You got the devils staff up your ass!" I poked his chest.

"That was good." Declan commented.

Bennett's eye twitched as he looked down at me, "No! I've got you stuck up my ass!"

I gasped, hitting my chest "Are you calling me a pain in the ass?"

"I'm glad we're on the same page." He rolled his eyes while crossing his arms.

I can't handle him anymore. I looked at the floor and let my hair create a curtain around my face.

"Is she alright?" "Did he go too far?" I could hear their voices but it went in one ear and out the other. Then I heard his voice "Naomi?" I slowly raised my head and looked into his icy blue eyes. They widened once my eyes met his, "Naomi." It was a whisper but it was still heard.

I blinked when I felt something drip off my chin. I felt my cheek and looked down at my hand, "Oh." It was wet with my tears. "Sorry... I don't know why I'm apologizing, I didn't do anything wrong." I laughed as I wiped the wetness from my cheeks.

"Naomi I-I.." Whatever Bennett had to say died out on his tongue when I looked at him. Suddenly his eyes hardened and his poster straightened, "Is there anything else you want to say or can I leave?"

I pushed down on my lips and nodded, "Jordan come on I'll take you home." I sniffled and rubbed my nose. Jordan jumped up and looked at Declan, "I'll call you later." Declan nodded and they did that bro hug thing. I pulled my keys from my pocket and followed Jordan to the door. He opened the door and walked to the car, I grabbed the door handle and started closing the door.

Before I closed it all the way I looked over my shoulder at Bennett. He was still standing there even after asking if he could leave, his eyes were soft as he looked at me but as soon as my eyes met his they hardened. I nodded and waved at Declan, he gave me a sad smile and waved back. I looked at Bennett one more time before closing the door.

I let out a big breath when I closed the car door. I set my forehead against the steering wheel and sighed at the coolness of it. I can't believe that just happened.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Jordan's voice broke the silence that was wrapped around us.

I chuckled sitting up, "No, but thank you." I started the car and flashed him the best smile I could muster up.

"Anytime!" He smiled as he took my hand that wasn't on the steering wheel into his. I raised my eyebrows at him, "Oh, um, I shouldn't have done that." He let my hand go and looked out the window.

I smiled and took his hand in mine. His head turned to me as he looked between our joined hands and me. "It's okay, I like it." I smiled and squeezed his hand. He smiled and adjusted our hands so they were in his lap. I smiled and started backing out of the driveway.

We didn't talk much during the drive to his house, he mostly played with my hand. I smiled the whole way to his house but there was that fight with Bennett eating away in my head that it almost made the smile go away, but he would always squeeze my hand when my smile would start to slip until the smile grew bigger. He was like my smile fixer. Not like a drug but he, himself could be my own personal drug.

When we got to the apartment building he didn't want to leave me.

"I don't want to go!" He whined while pulling on my arm.

I rolled my eyes pushing his hands off my arm, "I don't care, you need to go home."

He whined some more before I promised him I would come pick him up to hang out tomorrow since it's the weekend and we don't have classes tomorrow. He smiled and skipped- yes you heard me -skipped to the building.

After I got back in the car, I drove. I didn't know where I was going but I just drove. The whole time Bennett's voice rang in my head.

"For the love of god can you stop?!"

"No! I've got you stuck up my ass!"

"No!"

"No!"

"No!" I parked and started hitting the steering wheel.

"No!"

"NO!" I screamed. I calmed my breathing and fixed my hair, "I'm fine." I nodded to myself. "I'm good." I got out of the car and realized where I was.

I laughed to myself as I entered the Mad Hatter.
