Hey look! A new story by JustMe133!
Anyway, this is just another little story idea I had. Don't know how long it's going to be or anything like that, since this is only the first chapter. Hopefully I'll get more posted soon enough : )
Hope you guys like it.
…
Ethan was waiting for Benny outside the school entrance so they could walk home together. He sighed, agitated that his "best friend" hadn't shown up yet. He'd been waiting for about 20 minutes already. He looked up when he caught a flash of blonde hair head his way.
"Hi Ethan!" Rory said happily, not noticing how Ethan seemed kinda down.
"Hey Rory."
"What are you doing sitting outside the school still?"
"I'm waiting for Benny, but I guess he must have already left, so I guess I'll head home by myself." Ethan hated how sad he sounded. He wished he didn't have to depend on Benny so much.
"He's over by that old tree stump. Looked like he was maybe carving a new crush's name into it," Rory said, tilting his head in the general direction. Ethan felt the frown come onto his face. Benny has a new crush? No chance now… Not like I would want one.
"Well I'm gonna go get him so I can go home." Rory nodded and just followed Ethan. Ethan didn't even bother making him not follow. Together, the two boys headed towards the stump, where the tall lanky teen was currently sitting, a pocket knife in his hand.
"Benny!" Ethan called out as the two boys got closer. Benny's head snapped up from what he was doing, eyes wide. He quickly began to carve faster. Ethan thought this was weird but kept heading over there anyway. Before him and Rory could get close enough to see the name, Benny stood up.
"H-hey E, hey Rory," the taller boy said, looking nervous. Why would he be nervous? Ethan wondered, eyeing the tall brunette.
"Hey Benny, so who's the lucky girl your crushing on now?" Rory asked, chipper as always.
"N-no one." Rory rolled his eyes and pushed Benny out of the way and peered at where he had been carving. Benny and Ethan watched as Rory's face scrunched up in confusion before he stood back up.
"Why'd you mark it out?" he wondered, looking at the tall boy, whose face had a light blush covering his cheeks.
"N-no reason." Rory eyed him before turning to Ethan, who was now looking at the scratched out name of whoever caught the other boy's heart now.
"Ethan, can you leave me and Benny alone for a minute? I wanna talk to him about something." Ethan looked surprised but nodded anyway.
"Sure. I'll meet you guys in the front in a few minutes?" Rory nodded happily while Benny looked confused. Ethan just frowned and walked away. Once he was out of earshot Rory turned to Benny, a glare on his face.
"You know with my vampire abilities I can read through the scratch marks you made. How long?" Rory asked, concern in his blue eyes. Benny sighed before speaking. I'll feel better telling someone, even if it is Rory.
"A few months now…"
"A few months?" Dude…"
"I know! Please don't say anything Rory. Please."
"Benny … you gotta tell him."
"… He'll leave me. I'd rather have him as my best friend than not at all."
…
Short first chapter, I know. But hey, I'm a short chapter person. We learned that from my previous stories.
So, I like this story idea. I hope I can spin a good enough story out of it.
I hope you all liked it. If not, I'm sorry. If you did, then thank you!
