The first time I slept with Magic it was really fun.

After it got kinda dull. Now we're just really close. My god awful annoying girlfriend keeps on trying to talk to me about something. Some gossip that she picked up. Something about some chick Cards and this guy Dutchy. He asked her out and she turned him down.

"And it was so scandalous!"

"Falco, please" I grumbled. I saw Magic walking down the hall.

"MICHAEL!" Falco said in a shrill voice. Sometimes I love this chick. Now not so much. In fact I've been getting more and more annoyed with her.

"What?" I waved Magic over, I mean its not like I don't care about Falco I do. I just can't stand her! We used to get along really well. Or maybe we didn't, but we had fun. And I thought, hell may as well get involved.

But then I learned that she's totally obsessed with gossip.

Magic walked over.

"God Michael why do you always invite her over!" Falco hissed. "I heard she seduced Swifty a couple days ago."

"Why do people always act like its hard to seduce guys" Magic smiled kissing my cheek as she sat down. Falco made an indigent noise.

"So how was he?" I asked. I've been noticing recently that between the three of us, Me and Magic act like we're dating. Not me and Falco. I think she's noticed too.

"He was sweet" Magic smiled. She's wonderfully vague, and unless the guy's an ass she doesn't say much. She also isn't a bitch to the guys after. I've seen her and Swifty talk since she took him home, he blushed a lot and looked kinda surprised that Magic was talking to him.

"Did your mama walk in on you?"

"Nah, she had to work late." Magic was quiet. "You know that kid, Dominic Fuentes?" She asked softly.

"His dad's in jail, his mom threw him out in eighth grade." Falco said. I wonder if the school knows that she's started reading the files she files. "He lives in an apartment that the state owns."

"Nah I don't know him" I say softly. Magic doesn't normally talk about guys. If I ask she'll respond, but she's not like most girls who crush heavily on celebrities or anything. She's really quiet normally.

"I think I'd like to" She smiled, picking at her lunch. "I gave him a ride home yesterday."

"So you already know him pretty well" Falco snorted.

"Falco!" I turned.

Magic laughed uncomfortably, turning away from Falco so she was only talking to me. One of the reasons we get on so well is that we don't judge anything. When she realized my old man beats on me she didn't say a thing, just held me. When I realized why she left Puerto Rico even though she loves it, I didn't say a thing. Both of us hold each other's deepest secrets, it's a truce and promise both. "I didn't sleep with him. Or even kiss him. It was refreshing." She smiled again, it was the dreamy smile that girls get when they're thinking of an extremely hot guy.

I know the kid she's talking about, well I don't know him know him. But I have heard of him. He's in a couple of my classes. He's really quiet, does his work, doesn't cause any problems really. He's attractive, I'll give him that, but in a way that's so subtle and quiet that most girls don't notice him. Some of the girls in this school are horrible, almost like succubae, grabbing a guy, taking them and leaving them. The act is hardly pleasurable for either one involved. There's also a lot of drunken hookups. Of which I'm kind of ashamed to say I have had a lot of. I'm not ashamed of the sex or anything. Just the fact that I can't always remember who it was. Oh also that I've lied to Falco saying I've only slept with Magic. That's an issue too.

But Bumlets pretty much sits in class, he never goes to parties, never talks to anyone.

Magic smiles again into her salad, poking it with her plastic fork. I've never seen her like this. And I've seen a lot of Magic. I've seen her cry because some guy treated her like a whore, I've seen her yell at her mother, I've heard her talk about Puerto Rico and how much she loves it. But I've never seen her go gaga over a boy. She smiled taking her almost full tray up before I can stop and make her eat. Falco takes the time to lean over and whisper into my ear.

"God Micheal she's such a slut. Why do you hang out with her?"

Heaven help me I did the first thing I could think of. I slapped her.

Fuck.

Author's notes: My apologies to Falco. I'm sorry for turning you into a gossiping idiot. But given the first spiel your char. Gave I figured it was okay. I apologize again.

So this fic is starting to get really going! Woot! Now maybe if I updated it, and started integrating the characters.
