So the Coney Island trip. It was, like. Possibly the best day of his life. Ever. And that included the day that the teachers discovered the Alice in Wonderland mural he and Thursday had painted over the lockers at his old school--actually, you know what, fuck "possibly," that was totally the best day of his life.
The only thing he regretted was that he hadn't kissed Pig.
It was hard to tell, with her. Whether she wanted something or not. Sometimes it really seemed like she did -- other times, it was so hard to tell. He was learning the intricacies of her body language and the subtleties of her expressions as quickly as he could, but he'd been nervous that he might... like... frack things up, because he was really really good at fracking things up. So he hadn't kissed her.
What if she'd wanted him to kiss her? What if he'd been wrong? What if she liked him, too, and now she thought that he didn't like her because he hadn't kissed her at Coney Island? Shit. Shit, shit, this was complicated. He'd never had this many... feelings about one person, like, ever, besides maybe his brother -- but his feelings for Tuesday were so straightforward, so familiar.
This was way different. This was, like, the difference between an acid and a base up in here, some chemistry shit. Like, literally chemistry.
...ew, that sounded like a line out of a romance novel. Right. Moving on.
He'd wanted to make sure they were still... friends, that she still liked him, because he'd had this sneaking suspicion that maybe he'd really messed up and he hadn't realized it and he wasn't going to until Pig looked him in the face and told him he'd really messed up. He'd had all sorts of wacky dreams about it, about a hundred-foot-tall Pig glowering at him and demanding to know why he didn't kiss her, he was supposed to kiss her, or why he hadn't done this or done that or bought her a huge present while they were there or something. Not that either of them had really had a lot of money on hand, but still. The dreams weren't logical. They were just scary.
Either way, to make his subconscious chill the firetruck out, he'd decided to pay his favorite Pig a visit.
His color schemes were still a little... black and white. He hadn't quite gotten the courage back to pull back out that embarrassing yet expert fashionista streak of his. Still a bit too self-conscious. He could still feel the healing wound between himself and his brother. It felt like he was in mourning. It wouldn't be right to dress too loudly, somehow.
Whatever.
Either way, that afternoon, after class, he dropped off his shit in his dorm and trekked all the way over to Pig's, hands in his pockets. He hesitated outside for a moment. What if she wasn't there? What if she didn't want to see him? What if she was busy? What if she was sleeping?
God, freaking stop it, you goon.
Taking a deep breath in and out, he knocked three times on the door. "Rube? It's Oz. You present?"
