Ethan was standing at his locker grabbing some books for the rest of the day since lunch was almost over. He jumped a little when David Stachowski, sports star of all the sports teams, leaned against the locker next to him. He wasn't worried about David picking on him he was just startled easily.

"Hey, David. What's up?" Ethan asked as he shut his locker. David gave him what looked like a nervous smile.

"Not much. Not much…" David said as he kept looking around as if distracted. There was an awkward silence as Ethan waited for the other boy to say something but when nothing happened he shuffled his bag making the other boy's attention zero in on him. He felt a little like a deer in headlights.

"Uhm…" Ethan started and then bit his tongue as he kept from shrieking as Erica suddenly appeared. He saw David's eyes widen. More from fear than surprise.

"Hi sweetie!" Erica said way too sweetly. She went to move towards David but he wrapped an arm around Ethan and held him almost in front of himself. Ethan's eyes bugged out as he tried to look at David. He backed up against the boy when he glanced at Erica: if looks could kill.

"What are you doing?" Erica asked David trying to keep her voice sweet but you could hear the acid under her words.

"I am trying to ask Ethan something." David said while tightening his hold on Ethan a little. Ethan was surprised the jock remembered his name. He again tried to crane his neck back to look at the jock but he couldn't see the boy at all. David accommodated him by stepping to the side so he was next to the boy but he still had an arm around his shoulder.

"Well ask him so we can go." Erica said in her valley-girl-esque voice while rolling her eyes playfully. David looked a little freaked out but shook his head and gave his full attention to Ethan. Ethan was pretty sure he had a freaked out look on his face. More from the fact that David had his arm around him then having the jock's undivided attention.

"So, Ethan…" David started and then blushed a little but cleared his throat. "Uhm, will you go out with me?" Ethan stared at the jock not even registering Erica's gob smacked face.

"I'm sorry I think I heard you wrong. What?" Ethan asked sounding confused. David just smiled a small smile.

"Will you. Go out. With me?" David said making sure to say it clearly. Ethan just stared at him again with that deer in the headlight look.

"Benny's here so now it's a party!" Benny said as he approached the odd scene of his best friend, looking to be in shock, being held by the were-wolf jock, and Erica in a state of angry shock. David gave him a glance and a head nod but turned his attention back to Ethan.

David gave Ethan's shoulder a slight squeeze, which snapped him out of his shock. Ethan started sputtering and a blush appeared on his face making David grin.

"I-whu-you-What?" Ethan finally squeaked out.

"What did I miss?" Benny asked slowly, looking around the small group. He gravitated away from Erica because she looked absolutely thunderous. He stared at his best friend and glanced at the arm around the boy. He couldn't help but frown and he wasn't sure why.

"I asked Ethan if he would go out with me." David said pretty nonchalantly as he squeezed his arm around Ethan. "Seeing as class is gonna start soon I'll just give you a call after school?" David asked. "I have practice so it won't be until later." He got a jerky nod from the boy and smiled as he finally let Ethan go. He nodded at Benny and skirted around Erica.

Ethan backed up against the lockers as Erica got right up in his face. She was so mad that she couldn't even say anything. Ethan winced as Erica let out a mix between a shriek and a growl and then disappeared. He looked over at Benny who was frowning at the ground.

"Lets get to class." Ethan said a little shakily as he poked Benny's arm making the other boy snap out of his thoughts.

"I'm glad you're alive, dude." Benny said as they walked to class.

"Thanks?" Ethan asked.

"But you will see Erica again." Benny said helpfully. Ethan tried not to whimper.

A/N: I actually wrote this all in one long document but it works better when it's split up. So some chapter's might be really short but it's all in one timeline.
