Putzie's POV
I watched Abby ran off, what have I done? I just kissed my best friend! "Way a go Jacobs." I muttered to myself, so I sat down the step of the deck and rested my hands on my forehead.
"Hey babe!" I heard Danny yelled while laughing as he walked over to me.
I looked up to see him.
"I got ya a box of chocolate candies and a red rose flowers." He said laughing.
I just gave him a small smile.
"What's the matter brother?" He asked as he sat down and set the candies and the flowers down beside him.
"I uh…I kissed Abby and she ran off." I told him.
"Oh." All he said.
I heard him let out a sigh.
"It's gonna be ok pal." He said.
He puts his arm around my shoulder.
"No it's not." I said standing up. "Everything I do…I mess everything up…I just want to be alone…" I rambled on.
"Putzie." He started.
"And I as well think Rachel is gonna break up with me now." I added.
I let out a sigh.
"I need to be alone!" I said running inside.
"Buddy!" I heard Danny called out, but I didn't wanna talk now!
I was still in my room lying on my bed thinking about my feelings for Abby. Why can't I tell her how I feel? I don't know what to do! I don't even know what I'm feeling right now! Gah my head hurts! Just then I heard the door open and I saw my dad.
"Hey son," My dad said smiling at me as he sat down on my bed. "How are you feeling?" He asked me.
I shook my head.
"I'm not myself." I replied.
"Abby?" He asked me.
I nodded my head.
"Look son, I know you love her." My dad started. "But you gotta tell her how you feel sport." I sat up on my bed.
"But dad, when I look at her…my heart starts pounding and I don't know what to say." I told him.
"Listen son, when I met your mother, I was scared." He said.
"You were?" I asked him.
He nods his head.
"Yes I was, but luckily I told her how I felt." He said patting my shoulder. "But I know you will tell Abby that you love her." He stood up.
I let out a sigh.
"Just gotta wait." He winked.
"Kay." I says.
He ruffles my hair and kissed my head before leaving the room.
"Abby." I muttered looking out the window.
I let out a sad sigh wishing Abby was mine! All sudden I woke up in my bed realizing that I had fall asleep, so it was all a dream? MAN! I rubbed my face in frustration and I saw Phil and the guys came in the room. "Another dream about Abby?" Phil asked me.
I nodded my head.
"Listen buddy, she'll come around." Danny said.
"No she's won't," I said sitting up. "She'll probably marry Tom, the little idiot."
Phil puts his arm around me.
"Come on little brother, she'll come around." Phil said to me.
"No she won't." I said.
Then I felt Danny sat down next to me.
"Putzie, that girl cares about you more than anything in the world, you're her favorite guy buddy." Danny told me.
I just looked down.
"Come on, let's go out to Frosty." Phil suggested.
"But I don't feel like going anywhere." I winced.
"Come on, get dress little brother." Phil said as they left my room.
Then I let out a sigh as I saw Danny came in.
"And that Rachel girl seems like a real nice girl." Danny said.
I just smiled.
"Thanks" I said and he nods his head and then left the room.
The guys and I were at Frosty, I saw Rachel talking to the girls. I looked over at the guys staring at me.
"What?" I asked them.
"Putzie, who do you really want?" Danny asked me.
"What?" I asked him.
"Bro, you've been trying to avoid the girls for a week, and you are torn apart." Phil said to me.
"So, who's it gonna be? Abby or Rachel?" Kenickie asked as I looked back at Rachel and Abby.
"I honestly don't know." I admit.
"Putzie, you need to realize your feelings." Doody said.
"But Abby is with Tom." I told them.
"Well one of these days she's gonna realized that you're the one for her." Phil said as I looked back at Rachel and saw her talking to Abby. "But to be honest little brother, you loved Abby more than Rachel." Phil added.
I looked over at my older brother.
"And you never stopped." Sonny added.
"But I don't wanna hurt Rachel." I said.
"We know you don't." Danny said.
"I'm gonna go home and think about this." I said getting up.
"Hey babyface, you're a real nice and smart guy." Kenickie told me.
I just nodded my head at them and left. It's been 2 weeks since I met Rachel and I am STILL confused about my feelings! I was still lying in my bed thinking about Abby and Rachel. You know what, the guys are right. I gotta make my choice, but it's so hard. Because both girls are super sweet, smart, kind, nice and most down-to-earth girls ever. Then I saw my mom came in with the laundry.
"Sweetie, I know you don't want to hurt the girls, but you gotta figure out your feelings." My mom said walking over to my bed.
"It's so hard mom, they're both are so nice." I said.
"Oh I know sweetheart." She said kissing my forehead.
Then she was about leave my room.
"Mom." I spoke up and she turned around.
"Yeah?" She asked.
"Who do you think I should be with?" I asked her.
She smiles.
"What your heart wants it'll tell you sweetheart." She replies.
I smiled a little.
"I love Rachel, she's a dear but…" She started. "But I like Abby more because you guys known each other and I see how you two are with each other."
"Thanks mom." I said.
"Just don't stress so much," She said. "Don't want you to get sick."
I chuckled.
"I won't mom." I said as she smiled before leaving.
She and the guys' mothers were ALWAYS protective, but hey! It's our moms and we love them dearly! I finally got out of bed to meet up with the guys at Frosty. So we've been hanging around, but of course I was still thinking about Abby and Rachel. Why is it SO hard to choose!
"Putzie." I heard Danny started.
"What am I'm doing?" I asked.
I looked over at the guys.
"What do you mean little brother?" Phil asked.
"I should've just told Abby the real truth how I felt and instead I just let her date some loser jock!" I snapped as I stood up.
I glanced to see Kenickie motions me to sit down.
"Look man," Doody started. "I know you feel bad."
"Feel bad! I feel awful! I feel like I'm hurting everyone!" I snapped.
"Putzie calm down." Danny half-whisper half-yelled, "Just…just give it time buddy." I stared at me and walked over to him.
"Danny, I made Rachel felt uncomfortable and all I know is that she's gonna break up with me because of this!" I yelled. "I STILL HAVEN'T told Abby that I love her!" I yelled making everyone go quiet and looked at Putzie in shocked.
Smooth Jacobs, real smooth!
"Did I just say that out loud?" I asked.
"Yes you did." Sonny said.
Doody covers Sonny's mouth to shut him up.
"I'm gonna…go outside, see ya." I said as I walked out of Frosty.
I stopped taking a deep breath.
"Putzie?" I heard Rachel behind me.
I felt a stained in my chest.
"I'm so sorry Rachel." I said not wanting to face her.
"Putzie!" I heard her called out.
But I just ran home and watched some TV. I knew I've been watching for couple of hours holding blue baby blanket that Phil got me when I was born. I still of course was in the living room watching movies while holding my blue blanket and I looked over to see the guys standing there.
"May I help you?" I asked them.
"Putz, this aintin you." Kenickie says.
"Guys, I'm fine." I lied.
"Ok baby brother," Phil said walking up to me. "You are watching a romance movie about a guy finally got his girl while holding your blue blanket, and you keep muttering about Abby."
"Which that guy in the movie have more luck than me." I told him
Phil looks over at the guys and back at me.
"Putzie," Kenickie started as he walked sat in front of me on the coffee table. "I'm gonna tell you a secret that nobody don't know, not even Danny, or Phil or the boys." Kenickie looks at the guys and back at me. "When I met Rizzo for the first time in the 5th grade…" Kenickie started. "I um…I was nervous and was scared to tell her that I loved her.
The guys and mine felt our mouth dropped.
"No way!" Sonny says.
"Say it isn't true." Doody said.
Kenickie nods his head.
"Yep, it's true…because know why Putz?" Kenickie asked me.
"Because you knew that she was the one for you and you really thought she was special." I said.
"That's right." Kenickie said. "Even though we fight…"
I let out a sigh.
"But we still love each other like crazy." Kenickie told me.
I looked down.
"Little brother, what Kenickie is saying that…Abby is the one for you, you love her and…she loves you," Phil said.
I looked up at Phil.
"Yeah Putzie, I seen how you are with girls…" Doody said. "You are too nice."
"Next to Doody." Sonny replied.
I smiled.
"Thanks fellas." I said.
Kenickie pats the back of my neck.
~A Little While~
All of sudden I woke up on the couch with the TV still on. So I guess that was just a dream, as usual. "Abby," I mutter.
"Little bro, you need to make up your mind and go to the girl of your dream." Phil said as he faded away.
"I can't." I said.
"We're worry about ya." Danny said standing in front of me.
"I try to tell her…but I just can't." I said looking down.
"Putzie." I looked up to see an angel…it was Abby!
"Abby?" I asked.
"Putzie, please tell me how you feel." She begged.
I looked down and back up, she was gone. Just then I jolted up on the couch, sitting up rubbing my face.
"Another dream about Abby?" Doody asked.
"No it was about Lucy." I said back.
Then I saw Doody stared at me.
"Sorry man, I'm just…not with it." I said.
"Dude, man up already." He said.
I stood up.
"I tried Dood! But it doesn't work!" I said walking over to the door.
"Where are you going?" He asked. "I'm coming with!" We got in Doody's car driving off.
I just need to get a drink, to clear out my mind.
"Where are we going?" Doody asked.
I looked over at him.
"I'll tell you to stop when we arrived." I said.
"Ok." He said shrugging his shoulders.
I let out a sigh.
"Abby." I said rubbing my eyes in frustation.
"It's gonna be ok buddy." I heard him say.
I felt him gave me a comfort shoulder squeeze.
"She'll come around." He added.
"When will that be?" I mumbled queitly as I let out a sad sigh.
