The Story of Us
Chapter 11: You What?
By: WoopWoop10
It was the start of senior year and it seemed that everybody was ready to get out of Eden Hall Academy. They had all were accepted to colleges in different places around the country. They had to move on with their lives and meet new people instead of living in this dream world they had created. It was also year number seven of Guy and Connie's official relationship and it seemed the older they got the more they turned into a married couple. Fighting was constant yet petty the kind that ended with an 'I'm so sorry, I was being so selfish,' at the end of the day. But then again there were the occasional exceptions. It seemed that Guy and Connie broke up at least once a week but got back together at least a day after that.
"Are you guys going to Gary's party?" Guy asked the table as he sat down for lunch.
"Yeah," they all nodded except for Connie.
"Are you coming, Connie?" Guy asked.
"I dunno, I don't have a date, or at least no body has asked me," she sighed.
"Hmm, I wonder why," Guy said sarcastically.
"Well I'm not going alone," Connie complained.
"Well I'm not asking you," he retorted.
"You are so impossible."
"Me? What about you Miss I can't go anywhere alone," he said imitating her.
"Urrrr!" She complained.
"Great come back that one is definitely going into my book."
"Yeah, well no one likes you anyway!"
"Another great comeback, ladies and gentlemen she is on a roll!" Guy announced to the table.
"We're over," Connie said marching out of the lunch room with Julie following her.
"Yeah, see ya next Tuesday!" Guy yelled after her.
"Woah there," Greg said sinking in his chair, "that was interesting."
The night of the party came along and pretty much the whole team showed up. Guy sat with Charlie and Jesse where they sat in the corner talking. Nikki, the girl he had met at the game 4 years ago just so happened to be there and she approached him. "Um, Guy was it?" She asked rather timidly.
"Yeah," Guy said turning to her, "but I can't recall who you are."
"I'm Nikki, we met at a hockey game a while back."
"Oh, now I remember."
"So how are your girl troubles going?"
"Oh yeah their over we broke up yesterday." Guy replied.
"Oh, I'm so sorry."
"Oh don't worry about me I've been strong," he said with a slightly fake sniffle.
Charlie and Jesse gave him a 'shut up stupid' look.
"Can we go talk over there?" She asked as he followed her to another corner.
"What the fuck is Guy's problem?" Jesse sighed.
"Rebound," Charlie joked.
Just then Connie and Julie entered the house it didn't take her long to spot Guy talking to Nikki, "Excuse me for a second," she told Julie as she walked towards him.
She tapped Guy on the shoulder as he flipped around, "Yes," he asked charmingly looking up to see Connie, "oh, never mind."
"What are you doing?" She asked confused.
"I'm talking to my friend Nikki over here."
"I see that stupid, what are you doing?"
"Can I have a conversation?"
She rolled her eyes and walked out of the party. "Who was that?" Nikki asked as Guy's eyes followed Connie out of the house a sense of regret coming over him.
"Just an old girlfriend of mine," he sighed.
"Do you wanna dance?" she asked as a slow song came on.
He paused getting up, "um, actually, I'm gonna go take off," Guy said getting up, "I have practice tomorrow."
"But it's a Saturday," she said as he continued walking out of the house.
Guy ran home as quickly as he could, he was being an ass and he couldn't deny that. He hopped into Connie's back yard and began to throw pebbles at her window. After a few hits she finally came to her window and opened it, "what do you want?" She asked with an attitude, "to tell me of the great time you had with Nikki?"
"No, it's the weekend," he said, "camp out time."
She sighed, "Guy we're not eight anymore."
"Don't break tradition," he pleaded, "besides I've got to talk to you."
She sighed again as she through her hair up into a messy bun, "I'll be down in a minute." She left the window as Guy ran back into his backyard where he had already set up a tent.
Connie approached his back yard taking a deep breath as she stepped inside the open tent. "So, what did you want to talk about?" she asked sitting down on a sleeping bag.
"Us, I'm sorry about today and yesterday I was a jerk and it was wrong of me," Guy replied his customary line.
"I forgive you," she said waiting for the okay to get back together. "So is that what you wanted to talk about?"
"No," he sighed, "there's something else."
"We're not breaking up again? Cuz I think we would have just set a record." She smiled.
"There are times in life when we meet somebody……….. Scratch that, that really sucked," he cleared his throat. "I realized something today, when I was talking to that girl and she wanted to get closer and I began to think. I don't want to hold another girl, or kiss another girl, or be with another girl other then you. Then I got the picture of you being with another guy and it killed me inside. I mean I know we have our fights and break ups and stuff but I never stop caring for you."
"That's sweet," Connie said rubbing his cheek with her thumb.
"Wait shhhh! I'm not done," Guy said aggravated. "We met when we were 5, and started 'dating' when we were 10 and 7 years later we're still here that's 12 years of the best friendship I've ever had. And even when we break up in two weeks I still know that I'm not gonna stop feeling this way about you."
"Did you write this down or something?"
"Yeah now shut up, I'm gonna use parts of this for my wedding vows. Anyway, I want you to know that no matter what happens through our lives that I will always………… have the need to know that you are okay. And I can't believe I've never told you this but there won't be a time in my life that I won't stop……… wondering how you feel inside."
"Guy, shut up and say it," Connie joked.
"I love you," he smiled.
"I love you too," she laughed as she kissed him. She laid back onto his sleeping bag as they continued kissing, "Guy, where are your parents."
"I don't know out of town, they're never home," he smiled continuing to kiss her as they 'took I love you to a whole new level.' You could even say that 'they landed the deal.' If you don't get it yet they aren't virgins anymore I just don't write sex scenes.
A/N: Sorry I can't write sex scenes it's too weird for me so if your that upset go write an NC-17 thing or something. I hate writing cheesy 'I love you' speeches they suck! So sorry about the romantic lack I decided to make it semi-funny. Next chapters coming up soon!
