THIS IS THE FINAL CHAPTER

AAAARREEE YOU READY?

T for kissy fluffy scene

BTW the scenes are going to be confusing:

It's gonna go like this: Randy's perspective, Teddy's, Nate's,Francis's and Randy again

It's okay he can do this... It's okay he can do this..

Randy breathes in and out. He has to approach Nate, he just has to, but how?

He can't just go up to him, declare his new found love for him, and carry Nate out of the school. Okay that sounds awesome as hell, but still.

He needs to find a way to get to him...somehow without making a commotion and nobody noticing them at all. Randy spots his posse in the hallway, as they start stepping toward him, he walks away as soon as he sees them.

"What's wrong with him?" One guy complained, The others shrugged and kept on walking.

Phew...

He was relieved, that they walked away from him. He just felt stressed really. He never really was striven to be that guy that everyone wanted to be around all the time.

Besides he thought he needed some time off, like really.

He tried to nod off just for second, leaning his head lightly against his locker without hurting it.

He opens his eyes, it didn't seem to work. He didn't like being preoccupied with his thoughts. Last night he wasn't able to get any sleep anyway...

...He just wishes he could give up on him...but he can't anyway...he's too hung up on Nate..

Why...me...just why?

Randy would have to figure it out on his own unfortunately..

If there was anything he didn't want to do, was to face Nate that day. It would be totally awkward...

He didn't think he had the guts to talk to Nate again, Francis isn't even an option.

Teddy didn't think he had a chance anymore.

It's been a week since the trio of boys separated and he was so...lonely.

He needs his friends back!

He's not gonna throw in the towel, he can't.

He's gonna be a man and get his friends.

Yeah tHAT'S WHAT I'M GONNNA DOOO!

It's time to face his friends again.

Teddy's done with being a coward.

It was soo boring,he couldn't stand being in there anymore. Nate could barely keep his eyes open. He couldn't even focus. They were barely doing anything except for doing crossword puzzles and word searches. Gina kept saying "OOH!" and went forth and back each time getting a new activity to do.

He couldn't sleep last night...Ellen kept him up..

Ugh...Ellen why do you do this to me?

He remembers she was fretting about what to wear to the carnival-festival event today.

After all it is the last day of school.. Hallelujah...

The only thing left to do is just go through the day.

"Enjoy the rest of the day class" Ms. Clark announces and the bell rings. All the students run out excitedly leaving Nate being trampled.

'Ugh" After one of his peers steps on the back of his shoe, he flips to the ground.

"Are you alright Nate?"his teacher asked politely taking Nate's hand to help him up. Nate nodded and said thank you and simply moved on with his day.

Until...he bumped into Randy..

"Hey-"

He ran off to the library quickly, being greeted by the librarian.

"No running in the library..." He stopped and sat on a beanbag, and took deep and slow breaths.

"If you want, you can check out the new books I have out" The librarian suggested. Nate decided to look, until a certain book caught his eye.

He took it and read it, until he eventually became bored, and almost fell asleep.

"Hey don't fall asleep" he heard a familiar voice, Nate had to open his eyes.

It was Francis?

"What are you doing here? You don't have study hall.." He muttered with suspicion, moving inches away from his best friend.

His friend awkwardly smiled "I know it's been kinda...um you'know complicated, but it doesn't have to be"

"I know it doesn't have to be.."

"I'm not angry at you..."

"Well good...cause I'm not either.." The two look at each other for a moment.

"Aren't you excited? It's the last day of school" Francis noticed Nate being bored out of his mind. Nate was barely listening.

"I am...listen can you do me a favor?" Nate asked and then took a pause, looking like he was thinking about something...or someone.

"Sure" Nate leaned in, and whisper something into his friend's ears. Francis got up, and nodded at the raven-headed boy.

"I'm a man on a mission..."

He knows he has to apologize to Teddy...

"Oh, and Nate?" Francis remembered something. He looks back at his friend from behind, and Nate glances upward from the book.

"Randy is looking for you" Nate blushes and hides his face in the book and Francis was cackling to himself, as he walked out of the library back to his class with Teddy.

He returned to his class and sat in front of Teddy, while everyone else was doing what they want.

Okay let's do this... Francis thought in his mind. He casually turns and slides around his chair, resting his hands on the head of the chair.

"Hey..uh how ya doing?"

Good job genius, that's totally not awkward.

"What..do you want Francis..?"

"Can't we just talk like regular pals?"

"I don't know...anymore really" Teddy had a sad look in his eyes, he's not even giving full eye contact to his friend.

"I don't think you're disgusting by the way..." Teddy looked up at Francis and sighed.

"What do you want me to say Francis?" Teddy scrunched his eyebrows, was Francis trying to trick him of some sort?

Why is he being so difficult?

"Tedster..you should know that Nate doesn't hate you, I don't hate you...do I really need to repeat this over again?"

Probably Teddy thought.

This is going to take a while...throughout the day isn't it?

It's the end of the school end of school..until the end of summer now.

Randy stepped out of the building and breathed in the fresh air. The other children were walking home, some were being picked up by their parents and others went on buses that lived in the farther areas.

It's the start of summer, why isn't he happy? He tried thinking happy thoughts ,but nothing came to mind. He's been avoiding his posse the whole day and they were already curious about what's going on with him. He never said anything to them or at least tried. Confessing to anybody was hell of a big risk. Especially since his reputation is important. How the hell does he even imagine maintaining his rep even after confessing to Nate?

No chance, no way..no no.

He didn't have a chance no more right? Nate is already afraid of him, it would be useless to ask him out. Forcing himself on him would be a very..very bad choice. He didn't want Nate to run off and tell others about him. That would mean he would have to give up, but he didn't want to give up. After all he really really likes Nate.

Would Nate's dorky friends even be okay with that? Teddy and Randy had a grudge against each other. Francis was never on good terms with him until that talk earlier that had him convinced that he would be alright with him going out with Nate.

Whatever...It's probably over anyways...

He'd have to continue his day, running back home telling his parents he was going to the social event that day with a 'date'. He lied that he had someone to take to the fair. He only felt somewhat bad..he quickly got over it.

It wasn't full nor was it empty. He left his skateboard he rode on by a metal meter. He immediately slumped over a bench felt like a pile of shit. He glanced at a couple coming by. It was two girls holding hands. The taller one slipped her hand on the shorter girl's shoulders and yawned. Then they both giggled as they walked passed him.

He felt even crappier by looking at their happy faces. Imagine that could be him and Nate one day...yeah right.. What was he thinking. He stretched out, his arms fall before him and closed his eyes just for a moment.

"You having a bad time?" He heard a somewhat familiar voice. He opens his eye and lifts his head back up to face Teddy and Francis.

"He isn't here..you know?" Francis stated as matter as fact. Randy and Teddy both rolled their eyes. They both knew sometimes Francis was a little..egotistical just a little bit ...sometimes. Francis then insisted him being insufferable wasn't the point.

Teddy grunted "Listen...I'm not really that convinced that you're a great guy...but, Francis told me that you're not totally a bad person at the same time...so I'll just give you one more chance" He paused then angrily scrunched his eyebrows "I don't even like him anymore...however, if you do something to him...I"ll END you" It definitely took a lot of time to convince teddy about the whole entire situation.

"I won't" Randy replied. He couldn't believe this. He's having a regular conversation with the two of these do-classmates. Yeah, that's seems much better. He glances around them. "Where is Wri-Nate? Isn't he usually with you two?" He stared at them until they talked, he had the power. he was only naturally intimidating.

"Actually, he didn't come, he's at his house I'm sure" Francis said. "Now if you mind me I have a date with Gina" He grinned like an idiot and walked away. Both of the boys shivered at the thought of the two geniuses dating. Francis and Gina could be the ultimate bosses that no one could compete against.

"Well...I gotta go find Nate now, see ya sucker" He got on his bike and pushed forward on his pedals. He knows where his house is...at least he thought..yeah he didn't know he went back to Teddy. "Where's his house?" After Teddy told him he went on again.

This actually isn't that bad...I can't believe I was this paranoid the whole time. Randy peacefully thought to himself. This was less complex than he thought. He can just talk to Nate, take them back on his bike and BOOM, they'll be happy together.

He left his bike on the ground outside and went up to knock on the door since there was no doorbell. A blonde girl came at the door who he didn't recognize.

"Who the fuck are you?" She demanded. "Wait a second...you're that kid that hurt my brother!" Her voice grew louder and one hand latched onto Randy's shirt and twisted it.

"ELLEEEN! WHO'S AT THE DOOR?" Oh that's Nate. Ellen yells at him back to stay upstairs.

"Ellen what are you doing?" He stopped at the last step of the stair realizing his big sister was about to beat up his bully. SWEET SORT OF. He shook that thought off.

"You can stop now" He came back to his senses. Ellen let go of Randy's shirt which was now crinkled, but Randy brushed it aside. She gave the taller boy an death glare with two fingers from her eyes to his, simply conveying a message of 'I'm watching you". She walked backwards away into the kitchen still watching Randy.

When she was gone the boys were stuck with awkwardness. It was like that for a few minutes until Randy decided to break the silence.

"If you can let me talk to you for a mo-

"Why are you here? Go away please!" Nate insisted. He looked like he was eyes were puffy and red.

Randy grabbed his arm, and pulled Nate towards him-keeping his hands on both of his arms upwards and out of Nate's reach to even move. Nate tried to kick Randy away by tempting to skid his tiny doll legs on the taller boy's knees.

"Will you listen to me, goddammit Nate..." He let go of him and shoved him away. He was confused, why was Nate reacting like this? He ran his fingers in his hair trying to think. "Why are you wigging out all of a sudden? Huh?" Nate went ahead and slapped him across the face for whatever reason. "Wha-?"

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR? I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO YOU" He growled at Nate. Nate looked like he was going to say something, but he faltered. "YOU LITTLE-

Ellen cuts from the kitchen and sneaks her head out of the doorway, with her eyes on Randy still. "Don't forget I'm watching..." She resumed back into the kitchen. She's weird sometimes. When she left, Randy grabbed Nate's face and kissed him.

Right there at the moment,Randy fucked up. Ellen came from the kitchen and yelled. "NOOOOOOOO!" She removed her shoe and threw it at him. "AAGH, GET AWAY FROM MY BABY BROTHER!" Nate sat down on the sofa feeling flustered thinking about the kiss Randy just gave him, while Ellen was chasing Randy in circles around the couch.

Okay, his sister is crazy. Randy noted to himself. He also noted that Nate could get into weird moods, like the last time they encountered each other. He makes a break for it, and grabs Nate from behind.

"KYA-" Nate yelps in surprise. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

"PUT ME DOWN, NOW!" Randy was annoyed by now, and gave a look to the younger boy and his sister before dragging him out the door.

"JUST LET ME TALK TO HIM LADY!" He shuts the front door behind him and throws Nate on his lawn.

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? YOU BIG IDIOT!" Nate was complaining over and over again. Randy waited until he finished whining.

"Are you done yet?"

"NO, YOUUU ARE SUCH A-" Randy covered his mouth with his hand. "No need for unnecessary commentary Wright" The two stood there with killer awkward silence once again.

"See? You don't even have a reason why you're here!" Nate proclaimed turning away from Randy. 'You're just trying to trick me again, and I won't let you fool me this time"

Wow, he is really irritating and frustrating. How did Randy fall in love with him again? Randy grabbed him, moving his body closer to him. They were face to face now.

Nate felt his face turn red from such close contact. "Listen...I don't know how to officially say this,,,but, I like you. I like you like you" Randy's face turned red from embarrassment. "If you can understand that then please..." Wha-what? He didn't know what to say next.

Nate's face flushed immediately. He felt Randy take his hand and hold it tightly.

Oh my god, h-he really likes me? Nate thought. He was stuck in between thinking he liked Randy and Randy liking him, and was thinking it was all a trick just to play with his heart. All this time...he really liked Nate. Everything suddenly made sense.

"Sooo you did all of that...because you l-liked me? You actually like me.." Nate faltered for a moment. He moved his hand away and covered his mouth. Randy looked slightly confused.

"Huh?"

"You made fun of me...after all..this time...because..you really liked me" Randy became even more red.

"Y-yeah, I guess you can say that" He acted like he was so..tough.

Randy continued to look at Nate. His eyes wondered down to his small mouth. He lifted Nate's chin and unexpectedly kissed him. He heard Nate just moan a bit. When they separated, they stared at each other. Nate looked down and fiddled with his fingers.

"I-I don't hate you-scratch that- I never really hated you either." He mumbled. "I just was..acting like that since always..." He was silent after that.

"So? Do you wanna come with me?" Randy asked again to the younger boy. Nate nodded and grinned slightly. He started laughing and punched Randy lightly in the shoulder.

"Give me a moment.." He goes to open his door to tell his sister he's going to the fair with Randy. It wasn't that she was angry and hated him. She was interested before, because that was when Nate was initially excited about Randy. Then that one night she heard Nate crying in his room after he ran the way home, alarmed her.

She didn't feel disappointed anymore nor alerted by Randy. His presence didn't bother her very quickly.

"Okay.." She winks and gives a thumbs up to Randy. "Be careful with him" She watched as the kids got on Randy's bike, and went off back to the fair.

"So...we're okay?"

"Uh huh..we're okay" Nate stopped for a moment. "Please promise me something..if that's okay..?"

Randy looked up at Nate when chaining his bike. "Yeah?" He finished and ruffled Nate's hair.

"Promise..me..you'll stop being mean" He somewhat demanded while rearranging his hair back. He looked back at Randy for his response.

Randy took it as a real question. It's a no brainer, Nate wouldn't enjoy having him being an asshole to others except him. Naturally he said what was instinct.

"Of course I will" He scoffed. Nate rolled his eyes.

He threw his arms around Randy's neck and hugged him. Randy was surprised, but held Nate for a moment as well. He backed off away which Nate questioned.

"What's wro-" He took Nate by his waist and and planted a genuine soft kiss on his lips. It was about three minutes long, when Nate returned it.

"Randy-Ran-RANDY!" Nate swatted the taller boy on the head when they found Dee Dee giggling like a weirdo watching them kiss.

"HUEHHUEHUEHHHH-LOOKS LIKE I WAS 'WRIGHT' AFTER ALL,OHOHOHOHOH!"

Randy scratched his neck and stretched his arm around Nate's neck. "Whatever..." Nate was madly blushing while Dee Dee was snickering at them still.

"You guys are official now?" She was serious now.

Randy looked at her in a different light. "Yeah"

"Great!, can you two kiss again?, so I can get it on camera" She wiggled her eyebrows.

Randy choked. Nate exasperatedly chastised her. "DEE DEE!"

She laughed hysterically once more.

This is good for them.. Dee Dee secretly thought as they walked into the carnival. There were now many good things to come.
