"What can I do to make her love me again? As a friend, I mean…"
Gene scoffed. "Okay, you can stop with the 'just friends' crap. You're not fooling anybody," he snickered. "Honestly…it's really fucking difficult to gain Louise's trust back after something like this. I think the only reason she still trusts me and Tina is because she had to put up with us her whole life. I actually…don't know how you'd do that. I've never witnessed it first-hand."
Logan groaned; this was going to be no easy task. Gene looked at his phone. "Hey, do you remember Dylan?"
"You mean that biker dude you brought home once? Yeah, what about him?"
"He wants me back. And I'm like, HAHA no sweetie. I'd rather be in the pussy game,"Gene laughed. The blonde roommate rolled his eyes. "Why is it my own roommate can get more guys than I can get a single girl?" Gene leaned forward and pinched Logan's cheek. "Don't worry, buddy, I'm sure a tranny is on their way for you." Logan smacked his hand away, annoyed.
"So does this mean Louise is a lesbian now?" Logan asked aloud. Gene pondered this for a moment before speaking up. "No, I'm pretty sure I've caught her looking at guy porn."
Logan stared. "How do you know that?"
"Because then I opened the door and looked at it with her. That was one of our best memories together," Gene sighed happily. Logan started laughing, then pulled out his phone just to see if maybe Louise had texted him back. No luck.
Gene peered over Logan's shoulder. "Dude, what did you tell her?" Logan shut his phone, mumbling, "That I missed her…why?" Gene shook his head no. "That's not going to bring her back. That just makes you sound clingy." "Well, then how would you handle this?" Logan asked in aggravation. The chocolate haired boy snatched Logan's phone, opening it up. "Let me show you." He started typing out something, and within seconds, "Annnnd 'Send'." Logan grabbed the phone, "What did you say?" He looked at the sent box.
I want genes dick oh yea
"What the fuck, Gene?!" Logan hit the laughing man upside the head. "I'm sorry, I just had to. You're so desperate, Logan," Gene almost fell over in laughter. Logan was just about to hit him when his phone went off, indicating a new message. He quickly opened it. "See? I told you, you're desperate. It's sorta sad," Gene said, trying to stop his laughter.
Louise: Tell Gene to grow up.
Logan: Oh so NOW you talk to me?
Louise: Shut up, that's not important. I have a secret.
Logan: And?
Louise: I think I'm bisexual.
Logan: I've heard.
Louise: What? WHO TOLD YOU?!
Logan: Gene. Well, he heard you talking about some girl, he didn't really say that you're bi.
A few minutes passed, before Gene's phone went off. "…Fuck you, you shouldn't be listening to my conversations," he read aloud. "Well, then," Gene started to type, "Then maybe you should have talked about it somewhere that wasn't a public place. Send." Logan rolled his eyes. "You're a drama queen."
"Hey! I worked hard for the money! While you sat on your ass, I was cleaning, cooking, and taking care of the kids! GIVE ME A BREAK, LOGAN! GIVE ME A BREAK!"
"…What?"
Gene got up and shrugged, walking away into his room. Logan started texting something before hearing Gene coming back. "Hey, Logan, do you want to practice kissi-"
Logan glared at him. "No. I'm straight, Gene."
"Well we could PRETEND I'm Louise! I'm related! I can be Lou-" Gene was cut off by an incoming pillow hitting him in the face. "Fine, fine," Gene mumbled, going back to his room.
Logan started texting Louise once more.
Logan: Sorry about Gene. I should probably try to control him better. He is my roommate anyway…
Louise: You think? Whatever, don't you have work now?
Oh shit.
Logan looked at the time and rushed to get his jacket on, flying out of the door. "Bye Gene, Work, home later!" Gene, not surprisingly, didn't hear him over the sound of his voice singing along to music he was blasting from his room.
"'Cause I'mma Primadonna girl, all I ever wanted was the world…"
"Oh, yeah! I saw this video of a kid online who could light a light bulb by sticking it in his mouth.. I mean, like, what's going on there, right? Do you think he's-"
Linda's voice was interrupted by the sound of the restaurant door being open, Logan rushing through it. He gave her a quick, "Hi Linda," while running to the kitchen. Linda watched him go; it was her cue to get back to reality. "I'll talk to you later, Ginger. Good luck with your hemorrhoids," Linda said before hanging up the phone. She turned around to face the window between the kitchen and the rest of the restaurant, her ponytail swinging in the air. "Logan, you're late!" Logan hurriedly took off his jacket. "I know, Mrs. B, but-" "Ugh, you're lucky Bobby's not here right now, or he'd have your ass on the burner instead!" The blonde looked at the clock, it said 4:30. He gagged before doing the typical routine.
After a while, Logan poked his head through the window. "Hey, Linda, where does Bob keep the meat again?" The mother turned around with her hands on her hips. The woman had aged reasonably well in the last couple years, looking exactly the same as when he was in high school. The only difference was she had her hair tied back. Hugo finally crawled through Bob's skin enough to make him force the staff to wear hairnets. Of course, Bob wasn't going to do that, so he just told Linda to pull her hair into a ponytail.
"Logan, you've been here two years and you already forgot?" Linda sighed, placing her arm on the blue windowsill of the kitchen, one hand on her hip, as she leaned against it. Logan smiled sheepishly, blushing lightly in embarrassment. "It's been a rough week for me, I'm sorry…" Linda looked at the blonde, laughing a bit. "You think I didn't notice? Sunday wasn't the first time I've had women's panties thrown in my face, you know. Speaking of Sunday, is Louise still mad? You know, I never objected to you two being together. My husband, on the other hand…" Logan looked away, leaving to get the meat. Linda called after him, "Get back here!"
The front door swung open, with Tina coming inside with Louise and Alexis trailing behind. Linda turned around, smiling at first then screamed when she laid her eyes on Alexis. "Louise! Oh..! Oh my God. I thought you were David Bowie, I'm so sorry." Louise groaned. "Mom..!"
Linda laughed nervously. "So, uh, Louise, who's your new friend?"
Louise looked at Alexis, who was grinning evilly and took Louise's hand in her own.
"Mom, this is Alexis. She's…she's my girlfriend."
Logan dropped everything he was holding, meat patties falling onto the floor.
