“The side of her head is shaved,
isn’t that
weird
?”
Afraid to admit my attraction,
I nodded in agreement.
And in a low voice
I responded with,
“
yeah, weird…
”
Yet again he pointed out,
“Look at her septum piercing!
Doesn’t she look like Benny the Bull?”
I looked away. Under my breath
I said, “
I think…she’s cute.
”
My friend turned
with simpering eyes.
“
Really?
Cute?
You’re a
******
too.”
I looked up, “I’m not weird.
I just think she’s pretty,
that’s all
.”
He scoffed,
“Nah man, you’re
really weird
.
Tattoos and piercings aren’t attractive,
they’re
weird
but I guess
weirdos
are attracted to other
weirdos
.
Flustered, I looked up to him.
“So what? Punk rock
is
pretty.
At least I’m not a pretentious ******* like you.”
And with that, I left him there.
