“Yeah, Bertie mentioned you have a couple siblings. I’m an only child myself.” Ed nodded. He seemed friendly enough, he had a polite smile in spite of his otherwise rough around the edges appearance.
“Uh so, you and Bertie…You’re just friends, right?” He asked then. |

Without meaning to, Viktor’s face erupted into a bright red flush. Of course he first and foremost thought of Bernadette as his friend, but he’d be a liar if he said he hadn’t thought about being more. He thought she was kind and thought she was awfully pretty, but he liked their friendship and dynamic and didn’t want to risk it with the concept of more.
“I-uh, I mean, yeah, we’re just friends.” Viktor nodded, rubbing at the back of his neck. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“Oh okay, cool.” Ed nodded, his own cheeks pricked with pink. “You go to school with her right? She doesn’t have a boyfriend that you know of?” He asked. |

“Um, I don’t think so...why?” Viktor asked, brows pinching slightly when he saw the pink in Ed’s face. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Ed chuckled nervously, reaching to ruffle the length of his mohawk.
“Well, she is the sweetest girl I know, she’d be a rad girl to date.” He admitted. |

Viktor didn’t know what he expected, but it wasn’t for his heart to sink in his chest, an overwhelming sense of disappointment clenching in his belly.
“I-oh, are you...are you going to ask her out?” He asked. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“I may, do you think she’d say yes?” He asked. |

I hope she doesn’t, was Viktor’s first thought and he immediately felt guilty about it. He forced a small smile and shrugged.
“I don’t know. Maybe.” He said. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“Cool, I can be hopeful over a maybe.” Ed smiled and nodded. “She’s definitely different than everyone else in my world, it’s like a breath of fresh air.” He admitted. |

“Yeah...” Ed replied slowly, seeming a little embarrassed. “You know, I’m mostly around people like me.” He began, gesturing to himself, his rough appearance. |

“I...don’t follow. What do you mean?” Viktor shook his head with brows furrowed. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“You know, she lives on the upper east side, goes to a nice private school. I dropped out when I was fifteen, left home a year later and haven’t really found a new place since I left.” Ed explained. |

And there it was. Ed was homeless and slumming it.
“Oh...uh, actually, hold that thought. Bertie’s been a minute. I’m going to go check on her.” Viktor said as he stood up and hurried off toward the kitchen, nearby stumbling over the coffee table in true Viktor fashion. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Bertie was happily humming and mumbling to herself in the kitchen. Her apron was pretty dirty, she had some flour on her face, just above her brow. She was stirring a big pot of something, just barely tall enough to be able to see its contents as she stirred. When she heard Viktor, she smiled and looked up at him.
“Hey, sorry it’s taking so long.” She chirped nervously. |
