Chapter 10 Explanations
Lee's P.O.V.
After my brother and I gathered our lunch, we sat at the table Humphrey and the other guys usually sit. I really don't fully remember their names just yet, but I'll grow on it soon. It just seems like we're going to go through a lot of bullshit together. We were waiting for them to join and after a couple of minutes they sat with us but someone was missing.
"Sup Lee, Sup Sebastian" Salty said sitting next to him.
"Sup guys" Sebastian said drinking his milk.
"Where's Humphrey?" I asked.
"I don't know, but he'll be here soon hopefully" Salty said.
"You guys are our friends right?" Shakey asked.
"Ummm, sure why?" Sebastian asked.
"If you want to roll with us you need to get the hand shake down" Shakey said.
"Wait a second, what happened to the fat one?" I asked.
"He moved to a different school for now...but anyway it goes like this" Shakey said while doing the handshake with Salty.
"Woah, that was kind of dope….how you do it?" Sebastian asked actually impressed by this. After a while and a couple of tries he finally got it right and was getting the hang of it.
"Okay, I think I got it down now" Sebastian said.
"You need practice too?" Salty asked.
"I think I can get it the first….time" I said with confident until I seen Lilly walk out the lunch line with her friend. "She looks so cute….I wonder if she's going with anyone to the dance...only one way to find out" I thought.
"I'll be right back" I said standing up. Then suddenly I felt a small pinch of pain in my lower abs area, making me whimper.
"Bro, you okay?" Sebastian asked.
"Y-Yeah...I'm fine just got up too fast I guess" I said shaking off the pain.
"But where are you going?" Sebastian asked.
"Don't worry about it" I said.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Sebastian asked.
"I don't know why but I lost my appetite...and who are you my dad?...just shut up and eat let me live my life" I said before walking off.
"Shit my bad for just wondering" Sebastian said shrugging.
I walked over to Lilly and her friend which looked a lot like Humphrey, with a throbbing heart. I've never been so nervous in my life to talk to a girl I heard that don't really talk a lot. She's just so perfect in my eyes I don't want to mess up. When I walked up to her she greeted me immediately.
"Hey Meteor" Lilly said cheerfully smiling.
"Hey Lilly, who's your friend?...I don't think we ever met" I said looking at her.
"Oh sorry, this is Apple….Apple this is Lee but I like to call him Meteor" Lilly said smiling.
"It's nice to meet you" Apple said holding out her hand. I gently shook her hand then finished it off with a soft hand kiss.
"It was a pleasure meeting you too Apple" I said making her face turn cherry red.
"By the way do you happened to be related to Humphrey?" I asked curious at the resemblance.
"Yeah, he's my brother why?" Apple asked.
"Just wondering you guys look similar...but uh...Lilly can I talk to you in private for a second?" I asked.
"Okay sure…I'll be with you in a second Apple" Lilly said looking at her.
"Ok" Apple said before she walked to her original table.
"So, what's up?" Lilly asked.
"First question are you going with anyone to the homecoming dance yet?" I asked.
"No, still looking for that perfect guy" Lilly said smiling.
"Okay, second, do you like superheros?" I asked.
"Yes, I'm in love with the Hulk he's the best superhero of all time...to be honest I'm a huge marvel fan" Lilly said smirking the a speedy tail.
"Great, because I was wondering if you wanted to see Deadpool with me later tonight" I said smiling and Lilly squealed with excitement holding my hand.
"Yes!...I would absolutely love to...I been wanting to see it since the trailer...but wait...it's rated R how are we supposed to get in?" Lilly asked calming down a little.
"Don't worry my brother is friends with one of the guys who works behind the counter and he'll sneak us in...but I really don't remember where the Hollywood Theaters are" I said.
"It's okay I know where it's at...when do you want me to pick you up?" Lilly asked.
"Umm 8:00...is that good?" I asked smiling gazing in her lavender eye.
"Perfect" Lilly said smiling back. Then I slowly moved her bang out her eye rubbing her soft furry cheeks.
"That's better" I said smiling and she blushed looking around avoiding eye contact. Lilly realized she was still holding my hand then quickly let go.
"Uh...I'm-I'm...s-sorry I didn't mean to do that" Lilly said shyly looking down then her hair fell back in front of her eye.
"Relax it's fine...so I'll see you at eight?" I asked lifting her head to look in my eyes. Lilly moved her hair and smiled.
"Y-Yeah.." Lilly said timidly blushing. "She's so adorable when she's shy and blushing at the same time…." I thought.
"Great, bye" I said before walking back to the guys.
"Bye Meteor" Lilly said cheerfully waving.
I walked over to my table with pride feeling like the man of the year. With a big smirk on my face. For the first time ever I talked to a girl without her ditching me in mid conversation. Maybe I should just be myself more often because I love this feeling. I just set myself up with the cutest girl in school to go see a movie together. How amazing is that, I feel so accomplished for the first time ever in my life. There's still no need to feel achieved just yet because something can still go wrong. I sat back down next to my brother with a huge smile on my face.
"What did you do?...why are you cheesing so hard?" Sebastian asked.
"Remember the girl you said I wouldn't get her number?" I asked.
"Trilly?...no wait umm Lilly right?" Sebastian asked trying to remember.
"Yeah, I got her number and much more" I said grinning.
"What?" Sebastian asked.
"A date" I said smiling.
"My mannn" Salty said as we did our new handshake.
"No wayyy...he's lying she's so out of your league" Sebastian said denying it.
"I swear I'm not" I said smiling.
"Well I have to say...I'm impressed little bro never thought I would say that when the topic is about girls" Sebastian admitted.
"Thanks, by the way you think you can ask Frank to hook us up with a movie?" I asked.
"Sure bro I got you...this might be the last time I ever see you with a cute girl longer than 3 minutes" Sebastian said chuckling.
"Enough with Lee girl problems, what about you dude where is your dilemma with girls?" Shakey asked.
"My dilemma?" Sebastian repeated back with a chuckle.
"Yeah, why you're not trying to get with any of these hotties?" Shakey asked watching one pass by.
"I'm not interested in dating especially with the girls here" Sebastian said.
"Why?" Shakey asked.
"That's classified" Sebastian said.
"There's a dance coming up soon and you can't go alone...so tell us who would be your pick if you can choose any girl in this school?" Shakey asked.
"No one...and I am not going it sounds lame" Sebastian said.
"Nope, you're going even if we have to drag you there...you need to have fun once in awhile you're so serious all the time" Salty said.
"Maybe because I don't take my life as a joke" Sebastian said.
"What is that supposed to mean" Salty asked.
"Nevermind, you obviously wouldn't understand" Sebastian said.
"Is it still about Rose?" I asked smirking knowing I'll piss him off.
"Lee don't talk about her last warning" Sebastian said serious.
"Who is her dude?" Salty asked.
"His long lost girlfriend that che-"
"I SAID SHUT UP!" Sebastian yelled hitting the table gaining everyone's attention.
When wolves realized it wasn't really nothing entertaining, everyone started talking again going about their business. It was an awkward 2 minutes as we all are in silence, until I noticed someone was still gone.
"Umm guys, isn't Humphrey supposed to be back by now?" I asked curious.
Kate's P.O.V.
I was following Humphrey and Stephanie and at a respectable distance. Trying the best I can not to lose them in the crowd, but I was falling slowly. They were almost out the door heading to the west side of the cafeteria where no one hardly ever eats at. "Where is she taking him?" I thought.
Then Sweets stopped in front of me relieved she finally found me…
"There you are I been looking for you everywhere...you went to Taco Bell without telling us?...how dare you" Sweets said joking and I handed her my bag.
"Sweets I'll be right back, you can have a taco if you want" I said quickly moving her out the way before I lost them.
"But Kate?...wait...what are you...ughh never mind...sometimes I just wanna..." Sweets said frustrated.
Once they walked out the door I lost them and didn't know if they went right or left. I took a guess and went right because right is always right. There were no signs of them anywhere and there scent was too weak to pick up. But I didn't give up on Humphery that easily so I kept searching. When I turned the corner I saw the most heartbreaking sight ever. Humphrey was kissing another girl. All the gooeyness that flooded my heart was now flushed out down the drain. Leaving my heart empty, cold, and lifeless with no emotions to be happy ever again. It was shuddered into millions of pieces and Stephanie burned it so they can never be put back together. We never dated yet but I thought he was the one and he just kisses another girl behind my back. I felt like he just used me only to be my boyfriend. He saw me looking at them and quickly broke the kiss.
"Kate no...it's not what it...looks like" Humphrey said in between kisses Stephanie gave him.
"Forget her Humphrey, you have me baby…" Stephanie said seductively biting his lip as they kissed.
I walked away with the forming tears in my eyes, still not believing what I saw. But something that was left over in my heart told me to stay and listen so I did. I heard a small thud hit the floor and I peeked around the corner to see Stephanie on the ground with a puzzled face.
"Enough!... I said I can't okay!?...I'm overwhelmed you want to thank me but you don't thank someone with pleasure!...there's many of other things you could've done but you choose this?...who do you think I am some type of man whore?...I'm not trying to be mean but I don't like you Stephanie….sure you're beautiful and sweet but I don't want to go to the next level with you...I actually was supposed to go on a date with the girl of my dreams tonight...now that's all ruined and she probably hates me…I waited so many years for that moment and I fucked it up as usual...I'm-I'm sorry I just can't..." Humphrey said before picking up his bag and walking away. Leaving Stephanie shocked and taken back by his words.
I put my back up against the lockers before Stephanie seen me smiling widely to myself."That's so sweet...I didn't know he's been waiting years to date me...I feel like a big jerk now...poor Humphrey he must be so heartbroken and buzz killed...I have to tell him it's okay" I thought before taking off to find him.
Under than 2 minutes I arrived at the busy cafeteria glaring around the room for Humphrey. It was hard trying to spot him with wolves everywhere so I walked in auto aiming on my surroundings. After a while I saw his sister and wondered if she may know where he is. With haste I walked to her table and tapped on her shoulder.
"Hey Kate, what brings you here?" Apple asked smiling.
"Have you seen Humphrey?" I asked.
"Not since 1st period" Apple said shaking her head no.
"I seen him walking towards the courtyard just a while ago" Lilly said pointing out.
"Thanks Lilly" I said before taking off.
"Wait" Lilly said quickly.
"What?" I asked turning around.
"Can I borrow one of your cars for tonight?" Lilly asked.
"What?...I'll get back with you on that" I said before noticing something different about her appearance.
"Lilly, you have your fur back" I said smiling.
"Oh uh, s-sorry" Lilly said timidly messing it up to where it fell back in place.
"No, no, no...you look cute...I actually never thought you had another eye for so long" I said giggling.
"T-Thanks" Lilly said shyly smiling.
"No problem, I'll see you later though" I said before walking off to find Humphrey.
I rushed to the courtyard cutting through wolves not caring if I made their lunch fall or spill. This is more important to me than some wolf's hunger. When I walked outside in the courtyard I didn't see anyone, but I kept looking determined to find him. After looking almost everywhere I realized lunch was almost over and was about to give up. Until I saw Humphrey sitting on a bench by himself watching the cars pass by. I walked over to Humphrey and sat next to him with a smile. He didn't bother to look at me and I saw melancholy written all over his handsome face.
"Hey" I said softly, smiling scooting closer to him. When he realized it was me, he was surprised.
"Oh uh, Kate listen...what happened back there-"
"It's fine I understand…who am I to tell you who not to date?...if you want to date her go for it..it's whatever makes you happy" I said smiling.
"No K, I don't like her like that….I just didn't want to be mean and thought it would be cool to hang out...I didn't know that was going to happen I swear...but there's only one girl I would love to be with everyday of my life" Humphrey said holding my hands kissing them both smiling.
"And who's that?" I asked smiling and blushing at his gentleness.
"It's…." Humphrey said before leaning forward slowly. I didn't catch on to what he was doing until his eyes closed. "Omg!...he's trying to kiss me!...just relax and play it cool Kate" I thought.
I played along and closed my eyes waiting for our lips to connect, but the school bell rung. Students rushed out of the classrooms making too much commotion for us to continue. He stopped and looked around at everyone, then looked back at me smiling.
"So, are we still scheduled for the movies?" Humphrey asked smiling standing up with his trash.
"You bet" I said smiling widely, exposing my perfect teeth.
"Great, I'll see you then K" Humphrey said smiling walking off.
"Okay, see you then" I said smiling. Humphrey walked away to class and I sat there with a palm on my face.
"Dammit, we were sooo close" I said mumbling disappointed to myself.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to do something" Humphrey said walking back and I stood up smiling.
"What?" I asked smiling and he kissed my cheek softly.
"Bye K" Humphrey said rubbing my arm before walking away.
"Bye Humphrey" I said dreamy with red cheeks. It's cute the way he calls me K. He's already chosen a pet name for me.
His lips were so soft and moist, it would have been better if he kissed my lips instead. The kiss sent me into a long daze about him as I held the wet cheek he kissed. I wonder if I'm supposed to feel this way about my yet coming boyfriend. Is this the love feeling Candy was talking about?
Sebastian's P.O.V.
Lunch was now officially over and I kind of wondered where Humphrey been all this time. Hope the little guy isn't in trouble because he seems like a good friend. Anyway, I was walking in my 5th period class and notice a red-ish wolf about same size as me sitting in my seat. He must be new because I never seen him around here before.
"Hey buddy...you're in my seat" I said tapping his arm since he had earbuds in jamming out.
"Find another one" He said not moving an inch.
"No, you're going to get out of my seat" I said serious.
"And If I don't?" He asked before looking up at me closely noticing something.
"Wait, I think I know who you are" He said squinting his eyes.
"Really?...I never seen you before" I said.
"How?...like my football sponsorships are all around the school...but anyways you're Sebastian right?" He asked.
"Yeah, who's asking?" I asked.
"I am...bro I would love for you to play football for us" He said and I sat in the seat next to him as the tardy bell rung.
"Ummm nah, I'm not really into playing sports...I just love to workout...I'm more of a computer nerd if you ask me" I said.
"Wait you're a computer nerd?...do you happened to have high tech cameras and know how to hack into stuff?" He asked.
"Of course I do, but why?" I asked uneasy from his curiosity.
"I've been wanting to prank this one guy for so long and I need cameras to do the job" He said.
"Well, I don't work for free" I said rubbing my fingers together.
"How much you want?" He asked.
"How much you got?" I asked. He took out this stack of cash and started counting.
"350 on me now" He said showing me a sneak peek.
"I need 400" I said.
"Done...Garth by the way" He said grinning putting his money away, then holding out his hand afterwards.
"Nice to meet you bro" I said shaking his hand as he checked out my biceps.
"What are you a female or something?" I asked.
"No, I was just wondering how you get so big when I use a shake weight to work my biceps" Garth said.
"That's the problem there you only use a shake weight...you need to bench and do power cleans more" I said admiring him.
"Makes sense...so anyway when can you get the stuff I need?" Garth asked.
"When you get the stuff I want" I said rubbing my fingers again.
"Okay meet me at the field house after school and I'll have your money...deal?" Garth asked grinning holding out his hand.
"Deal" I said shaking his hand. "This guy is up to something very bad...I have a bad feeling about this...fuck it it's not my problem I'm getting paid so who cares" I thought.
After school...
Kate's P.O.V.
School was finally over and now the fun part was about to start. Less than a couple of hours Humphrey and I are going on a date to see probably one of the funniest movies ever. I was so excited that this is my first date going to the movies. Many of my other boyfriends were lame and never took me out before we won the lottery. Some of them never even called until I asked them why. I have a feeling this date is about to be special because I'm thinking of asking him to the dance. Ever since lunch I've been in a lot happier mood than I usually am. This wondered my friends and they were dying to know why, but I didn't want to tell them just yet. Let's just say they're really bad with relationship secrets. Meanwhile my friends and I were walking to our lockers to put our books up for tomorrow.
"Kate, school is out now tell us why you're so happy?" Sweets asked.
"Why you guys want to know so bad?...I'm just in a good mood today" I said opening my locker.
"We know that but it's never to a point where you hum to yourself" Candy said.
"Okay if I tell you, would you guys shut up?" I asked annoyed.
"Yeah, tell us" Sweets said smiling.
"Wait, I think I know" Candy said smirking.
"No you don't" I said.
"It has something to do with Humphrey right?" Candy asked.
"What has to do with me?" Humphrey asked smiling turning the corner fast. I panicky dropped my books and hit my head on the locker.
"Kate are you okay?" Humphrey asked in a worried tone as I rubbed my head embarrassed.
"Yeah, just was a little startled there that's all" I said smiling.
"Who's the scaredy cat now?" Humphrey joked chuckling and picking up my books.
"Me apparently…thanks" I said smiling as he handed me my books.
"No problem...I'll see you later tonight" Humphrey said smiling softly rubbing my arm before walking away.
"Okay, bye" I said smiling watching him leave until he was out of sight. "He is something else….ooo that ass" I thought.
"Just a lucky guess, you guys are dating?" Sweets asked somewhat excited about it.
"Yeah…" I said blushing before putting my books in my locker then closing it.
"I'm sooo happy for you Kate...you guys are a cute couple...right Candy?" Sweets asked smiling nudging her arm.
"Yeah whatever I don't care" Candy said closing her locker.
"Remember he hates cats?" I asked.
"You know what, you guys are adorable together...you got yourself a keeper" Candy said smiling.
"Thanks" I said giggling.
Humphrey's P.O.V.
I was walking down the hallway after talking to Kate, to find my little sister. After a small while, I saw her getting something at the vending machine. A voice told me to creep up on her, and pick her up. The voice was tempting enough and a evil grin was placed upon my face. Apple hates heights and gets very dizzy easily, and sometimes she'll throw up at extreme causes. Before I could get 10 feet within her, Stephanie stepped in front of me with a culpable face expression.
"Humphrey about earlier-"
"It's fine...forget it I'm over it now" I said.
"B-But, what about Kate?..or whatever her name is" Stephanie asked.
"Don't worry about, we talked it out" I said smiling.
"Humphrey, I'm sorry I didn't know…" Stephenie said sadly with her ears flat on her head.
"Hey.." I said smiling lifting up her head, to gaze in her big brown eyes.
"I said it was fine...don't worry if anything it was my fault" I said smiling.
"How was it your fault?...it was clearly mine" Stephanie asked confused.
"I accepted your invitation…I thought it would be cool to hang out I didn't know you was trying to ask me out" I said.
"Hey bro, who's this?" Apple asked munching on some Doritos.
"Just a friend...Stephanie this is my sister Apple" I said smiling.
"Hi, nice to meet you" Apple said smiling.
"Nice to meet you too, are you guys twins are something?" Stephanie asked.
"Nah, I'm 4 years older…" I said smiling.
"Doesn't look like it...you guys look so much alike" Stephanie said.
"Yeah, I know we get that a lot" Apple said giggling.
"Well, I'll see you later Stephanie" I said before putting my arm around my sister as we walked.
"Text me when you get the chance so we can talk about...you know" Stephanie said.
"Sure thing" I said, once we walked around the corner Apple said.
"Talk about whattt?" Apple asked seductively.
"Nothing you fat head" I said chuckling and feeding her a Dorito chip.
20 Minutes Later...
Apple and I finally made it home, and I ran up to my room. Throwing my backpack aside, searching through my closet for something decent to wear. After I found my clothes I took a quick shower and put them on. I've been waiting an entire lifetime for this moment since we were kids. I'm more than excited and at the same time so nervous. Tonight might be our first kiss, and I don't want to mess this up. I really want to kiss her but a distraction always cock block us from doing so. I was laying in my bed with Naomi on my chest bored. To spare time until she comes, I watched a little Amazing World Of Gumball on Cartoon Network. Before I knew it, my eyelids slowly dropped until they were completely closed.
