Work Text:
It was an average December Day, Snow was falling and Christmas was nearing. Not much was happening.
Angel, or at least that’s what he went by, always woke up early for some reason. Like around 6:00 or 7:00. There wasn’t a reason behind it, really. It just happened. And the first thing he’d always do is check the hundreds of messages from the group chat on discord that were sent when he fell asleep.
They were always something completely random and he didn’t even usually respond or bother to read all of them. He wished he could just talk to them in real life. Nothing harmful, right? Just a group of friends who’ve known each other for, what? Almost a year now?
Atleast some trust had to be placed between them then, Angel thought. Without second thinking, he started pressing his fingers against his screen and typing out the words:
“good morning chat, lowk bored”
and waited for a response.
Anth, or Anthony, was the only other one online.
”farts”
he replied. he had a interesting personality, to say the least.
angel: “oh..!”
angel: “anywaysss i was thinking maybe today could FINALLY be the day where we actually meet up?”
the others then came online.
mudgette: “YESSS 😭 I’ve been waiting for this”
leo: “im down”
felix: “yuh!”
And Angel couldn’t help but smile softly. Today was finally the day.

Angel got into his car and immediately opened Spotify to play Doja Cat while he drove. He messaged the group chat to meet up at the Short Pump Town Centre Mall. Damn. That’s a mouthful.
He and the others eventually arrived and Angel put his AirPods in to talk to them and track ‘em down. Ew. No. Wait. That sounds wrong. To find them. Yeah, that’s better.
Anthony, in Voice Call: “Angel get your ass over here we’re near the Chick-fil-A”
Angel tried to hide his smirk as people passed by and he walked. “Coming,” He replied.
Angel then eventually found the four sitting at a table together, waiting for him. “Angel!” Leo shouted out. The two immediately ran up to each other and hugged, while Angel smiled and waved at the others. “Holy shit, I can’t believe this is ACTUALLY happening.” Angel said. “Heyy!” Felix greets playfully, waving.
Anthony tries to not seem excited but he secretly is. “Took you long enough.” He says.
“Sooo..? Where to first?” Felix asks.
“Well, since we’re here, why not get some Chick-fil-A?” Mudgette suggests. They all nod and agree, going in and waiting in line. They all eventually get their meals and sit down at a table together, laughing and talking about recent events.
Once they finish all of them throw their meals out and start walking towards the escalators to go the other stores. “I was thinking we could visit like 6 or 7 stores.” Angel says, smirking. He had to make atleast one 67 Joke. “Ugh.. I’m so tired of hearing that.” Anthony says.
The first store they went into was a Hollister clothing store. There were all sorts of different coats, shirts, pants, etcetera etcetera. Angel probably tried on the most out of everyone. He chose an outfit that looked gay on purpose and told everyone to come see, posing playfully and saying “How do I look?”
“Like a twink.” Anthony replied.
”Period!” Felix said.
”Okayy get it!” Leo also said.
Anthony gasped as he saw a shirt for his precious, beloved, favorite band. Machine Girl. “OH MY GOD THEY HAVE A SHIRT FOR MACHINE GIRL.” He shouted unnecessarily loud. “Good lord, it’s a miracle,” Angel says with teasing sarcasm. “Go on, try it.”
He ran to the dressing room and tried it on, actually fitting perfectly. Anthony was probably in his own version of heaven right now.
They eventually all bought what they wanted and went to the next store, Dick’s sporting goods. And of course, Angel made a joke about it being called Dick’s.
Each of them got some fitting attire there as well, and went to the next store.
Then the next, then the next, until they had visited 8 different stores. To finish it off, they went to Kilwins ice creamery to all get Milkshakes, sitting at a table together.
”I’m glad we could have this.” Angel said with genuine appreciation.
”Me too!” Leo said.
”Me three.” Mudgette said.
”Me four.” Felix continued,
”Hm? Oh, Me five.” Anth said quickly.
They all laughed and already were discussing their next outing.
“Hey, why stop now? We should have a sleepover!” Angel suggested.
”Oh my gosh, YES.” Mudgette agreed.
