A/N: hope you guys enjoy this chapter, don't forget to review
Jake
5am.
"Benny start singing"
Benny started singing some song is Spanish though half of it was in English and I was jumping up in down firing the cap guns. A second later we ended up pinned against a wall by a dangerous beast known simply as Erica.
"Crikey, we are trapped against a wall, this dangerous predator is just thinking of ways to devour us. Word of advice kids, don't mess with dangerous animals"
My Steve Irwin impression sounded pretty good.
"Why are you two in my room at 5am" Erica asked.
"We were filming for our TV show: Dangerous Animals of White Chapel, and you're our target for today's snow" Benny said.
"Then where's your camera man" Erica said, with a smirk.
"We don't have a camera man"
"Get out of my room and stay away from me" she shouted.
Quickly me and Benny climbed out the window and headed back to my house.
"You know, now that we did that I kind of feel like a asshole for doing that to her"
"Yea, do you think we should go apologize" Benny asked.
"Yea, because I'd think she'd kill us in our sleep"
"Point taken, actually my grandma just texted me saying that I need to be home in 20 minutes, so I gotta go man" Benny said, heading towards the door.
"Text me"
When he left I got a drink of water and headed to Erica's house. When I got to her window I saw her crying. Shit, it was just a joke but I guess we took it to far. She looked at her window and saw me floating there. She flashed her fangs at me before going back to crying. Despite my instincts I opened the window and climbed in. only to be shoved out.
The rest of spring break went by fast. And before you knew it I had school the next day, Erica officially hates me and Benny, barely talking to us only if Sarah is with us. But you know it's Erica, don't expect much because you won't get anything from her. May went by real quick and June 1st seemed to be when everything got slower, like the first few days of spring break. Me, Ethan, and Benny still hang out every Friday night. Eventually the night of Sarah and Erica's senior prom came, Sarah was taking Ethan while Erica still didn't have a date, for the hell of it me and Benny are going to say goodbye to some of our friends. The music was awesome and the punch table was packed with all the nerds and people who couldn't get a date for the prom.
I was tapped on the shoulder by Erica, who was holding out her hand. "Dance with me dork" she said, taking my hand and leading me out on to the dance floor. Just then a slow song came on. Good job on that one DJ.
"Erica, you know me and Benny didn't mean that prank that we did to you a few months ago it was just for laughs"
"Yea, but you guys really hurt me, but it doesn't matter now, me and Sarah are going to college" Erica said.
Benny came over right next to me and took one half of Erica so now it was me, him, and Erica all dancing together during the slow song.
"Even though you guys are a bunch of Dork's I'm going to miss you guys" Erica said, smiling.
After the dance me and Benny headed back to my house to chill. Benny had become like a brother in my house, he was basically a part of the family and my parents didn't seem to care because they liked Benny. The next day Sarah and Erica were packing their stuff up for college.
"Why are you guys packing two months early" Benny asked.
"We're moving to an apartment near the campus, so we can save some money for gas, plus we can start making money earlier" Erica said.
The next day they were done packing and were saying their goodbyes. They climbed in the car and waved at us. Just like that they were gone out of our life's, for at least a couple months.
"You know guys, I feel… I don't know empty now that they left"
"Yea I know what you mean" Ethan said.
"But hey look on the bright side, no more loosing blood and most importantly no more dorks" Benny said, sounding thrilled.
Summer came in the next few days and I couldn't wait. A summer to do anything, plus our parents will be working all day so we can do whatever.
6 months later
Erica
"You know, I miss those dorks"
"Yea, but you'll see them this Christmas" Sarah said.
I got up and my phone fell out of my pocket. Sarah picked it up hitting the unlock button.
"Um Erica, why is there a picture of Jake as background and on your lock screen?" she asked.
"Mind your business"
"Somebody's got a crush" Sarah chimed.
"No I don't he's stupid, and… and… a lot of other things"
"When are you gonna tell him" she asked.
"I don't know just leave me alone, I'll tell him when we're both on Christmas break, is that good enough for you"
"yea, I can't wait till then" she said.
Thank god it's only a few days away.
