Gordie and Chris are talking on the phone.
"That was so funny! You were so jealous, I thought your head was gonna explode!" Gordie said, chuckling.
"Man, fuck off! You're just so smooth Lachance, I remember the look on your face when I came into the treehouse yesterday. I thought you were gonna shit a brick." Chris said, obviously thinking his reference was funnier.
"Oh! We're going into that now, are we? Let's talk about how you handled the situation, shall we? I mean, at least I didn't get up and run out the door! Pussy!" Gordie laughed.
"You suck. That was just wrong, Gordo." Chris said in a defensive voice.
"Can I help it if I enjoy a good comedy? If only I had had some popcorn." Gordie said wistfully.
"I was funny? I was funny? Do you have any idea how ridiculous you looked hopping around in my pants? Forget popcorn, I needed a camera." Chris said, bursting out in laughter.
"Well, I realized how desperate you were to get in my pants, so I thought I'd do you a favor and just jump into yours." Gordie said, his eyes watering from laughing so hard.
"But alas, you will never be man enough to fill my pants" Chris said, his sides starting to hurt.
"Manly…fat, same thing, right?" Gordie said sarcastically.
"Just cuzz I don't look like a fucking alien, doesn't mean I'm fat, dumbass" Chris said, barely getting the last bit out.
"Chris, you fucking suck" was all Gordie said.
"But isn't that a good thing?" Chris was now laughing so hard that he dropped the phone. He bent over and picked it up. "Sorry bout that, I dropped you"
"What? But I didn't feel anything!" Gordie said, knowing perfectly well what Chris meant.
"Smartass" Chris said, finally getting a-hold of himself.
"Yup. And since I'm so smart, I'm gonna get off the phone now and do my homework." Gordie said, unable to manage more than a chuckle.
"Good, I can only handle you in small doses, Gord" Chris said, wiping the last of the moisture off his cheeks.
"Yeah, but soon you'll be addicted" Gordie said in a playfully confident way.
"Ha, you're funny…wait a minute while I laugh…oh sorry, there's nothing there…wait a minute…yeah, nothing…could be cuzz you SUCK!" Chris said in a bored voice.
"Oooh…" Gordie said, shivering.
"What?" Chris asked curiously.
"I just had a thought…man, you can't afford to get addicted to me…that stuff eats brain cells" Gordie said in a worried voice.
"Ha" Chris said, getting to hang up…this conversation officially sucked.
"No, seriously…I mean, just imagine what it would do to someone who didn't have any? Would it like eat your balls or something?" Gordie asked sincerely.
"I don't think we have to worry about it. Its impossible to get addicted to something you don't want." Chris said smartly.
"Fuck off" Gordie replied.
"Screw you" Chris came back with.
"Bye"
"Bye"

That night, Chris got an idea. In order to execute it, he went to bed early so that he could wake up early and get to school earlier than Gordie and find a suitable girl. The next morning, he took time to think about his appearance. He picked a pair of blue jeans that were so new that were only faded around the crotch. Then, not wanting to be too obvious, he picked a white tee-shirt, but got one that was a little tight on him. He got to school and started looking for a girl. He decided on one that was known to be loose, but other than that was a really nice girl. He started talking to her and was real friendly to her. By the time Gordie got to school and saw them, she was all over Chris.
When Gordie walked into school, thinking about the jokes he and Chris had made last night, they were the first thing he saw. Some slut was standing next to Chris, that's using the word "standing" loosely. She was leaning one hip against the lockers, and was leaning her whole body into his. She also had her hands all over Chris, she kept running one through his short hair, and the other she would either run lightly up and down his arm, or rub his side with. She had a very friendly smile on her face, and she kept messing with her hair and licking her lips. Her eyes were sparkling with invitation, and she was jutting her large breasts out so far that they were almost rubbing up against him. Chris just kind of stood there, not really returning any of it or giving her any encouragement, but not trying to stop her either. Gordie felt his heart speed up and his breath start coming in short shallow breaths. His eyes narrowed, and he started walking faster, having every intention of showing that slut exactly what he thought of her…he had the feeling her and Haley would get along very well. He suddenly stopped about two feet short of his destination, realizing something…Chris was trying to make him jealous! He was upset about yesterday and thought it would be funny to turn the tables on him. Gordie almost laughed aloud. Amateur. Shouldn't have tried it the very next day…way to obvious. Then Gordie got an idea…heh heh heh. This was gonna be good.
"I just love your hair Chris! Its so thick and soft" the girl said, running her hand through it again.
Gordie felt his blood surge, but withheld the impulse to hit her.
"How can you tell?" Gordie asked from behind Chris with a friendly laugh.
"Oh, hi Gordie" Chris said, not turning around.
Gordie laughed inwardly he's trying so hard, he thought to himself.
"Gordie, is it? Well, Hi there, Gordie, I'm Angela; Angel for short." the girl said, shaking his hand over Chris' shoulder, causing her chest to bump his.
"Hi, Angel. How do you know Chris?" Gordie asked casually, not missing the annoyed look on Chris' face.
"Oh, we just met actually. But I have a feeling we're going to be…very…good friends" Angel said, looking into Chris' eyes and rubbing up and down his side.
"Oh, I'm sure you will, Chris is very easy to get along with." Gordie said cheerfully, smiling at a very pissed off looking Chris.
"Yeah, Angel's real friendly too, aren't you, honey?" Chris asked, putting his arm around her waist and leaning his body toward her like she was to him.
"Oh, babe, you think this is friendly, you just wait" Angel said just loud enough for Gordie to hear.
Gordie bit his lip, he was really reaching the end of his patience with this girl. "Wow, Chris, where did you find this one? Seems like she's one in a million. You guys are already getting along so well!"
"You bet we do" Angel said as she ran her hand down Chris' chest and played with his belt buckle, raising her eyebrows suggestively. Chris searched Gordie's face for any kind of reaction.
Gordie felt bile rise in his throat, and his head was throbbing with suppressed anger, but his expression remained cheerful and friendly.
Chris gave Angel a very suggestive look and then bent down to whisper something in her ear, raising his eyebrows meaningfully when he pulled back. Gordie's hands clenched into fists involuntarily…he shoved them into his pockets. Angel removed her hand from Chris' belt and slipped her hand up his tight shirt, standing up on tip-toes to whisper back into Chris' ear. Chris looked over to Gordie's face and saw that he was cracking his back and yawning, a huge smile on his face. Chris was severely pissed off now, he roughly grabbed Angel's hands and jerked them off him, grabbed up his book bag, and started down the hall without a backward glance. Angel shrugged, looked at Gordie consideringly, decided against it, and walked in the opposite direction. Gordie, breathing a sigh of relief that he wasn't going to have to hurt anybody, headed after Chris.
"Hey Chris" Gordie said once he caught up to him.
"Hi" Chris said darkly, attempting to sound casual, but failing miserably.
"What's wrong" Gordie asked, sounding truly clueless.
"Nothing" Chris said, unable to keep the sarcasm completely out of his voice.
"Don't 'nothing' me! I'm not an idiot, and furthermore, I'm your best friend, I know when you're upset." Gordie said sincerely.
"Oh, how fucking wonderful of you! I'm so lucky to have you!" Chris said bitingly.
"Ouch. That was harsh" Gordie said, stopping to look at Chris, who stopped with him.
"Oh boo fucking hoo" Chris said bitterly.
"Fine, you don't wanna talk about it, fine" Gordie said, starting to leave.
Chris, never one to be able to take people being mad at him, called out "Gordie!"
"What?" Gordie asked with a guarded look on his face.
Chris, wanting to take that guarded look out of Gordie's eyes, decided to be honest. "Why didn't you care?" Chris asked, crossing his arms over his chest.
"About what?" Gordie asked, not even thinking about that stupid ass thing a few minutes ago.
"You don't even remember?" Chris asked, hurt "Why didn't you care that she was all over me?" Chris asked.
"Because I trust you Chris" Gordie said.
"I know that, and I'm glad, but that doesn't change the fact that she was all over me and you didn't care at all…you didn't even notice man. I trust you with my life…and I know you would NEVER cheat on me, but I still went crazy when I thought someone was flirting with you. Why don't you react that way over me? It's not like I want you to become insanely possessive or anything like that, but it would be nice if you cared." Chris said, looking at the floor.
"Chris?" Gordie said tentatively.
"Yeah?" Chris said, looking up.
"You wanna know something?" Gordie asked.
"What?" Chris asked, wondering what he could possible want to tell him right now.
"If you guys had kept it up about one more second, I would have floored her." Gordie said.
"Huh?" Chris asked, confused.
"Yeah, I was so mad! I turned the corner and saw you guys, and I started seeing red. The only reason I didn't run up and scream my head off like a madman and humiliate both of us is that I suddenly realized you were purposely tying to make me jealous." Gordie chuckled, giving Chris a sheepish grin.
"You dick! You were just fucking with me the whole time?" Chris exclaimed with a huge grin, wanting to jump for joy, Gordie did care.
"Basically, yeah. It was pretty funny, you should have seen your face!" Gordie said with a laugh.
"Yeah, real funny Lachance, ha ha" Chris said dryly.
"You deserved it though! You were the one who was purposely trying to upset me in the first place!" Gordie defended himself.
"Hey! I was just trying to get you back for yesterday!" Chris said.
"Hey! I wasn't trying to upset you! Is it my fault that you're a psycho who freaks out over a couple of whispers?" Gordie asked innocently.
"What-the fuck-ever, Gordie!" Chris exclaimed.
"Hey! I'm serious! I wasn't trying to make you jealous, sincerely!" Gordie said truthfully, not mentioning the day before that.
"Whatever. Just do me a favor, okay?" Chris asked.
"What?" Gordie asked, raising his eyebrows curiously.
"Next time, just let me know you're jealous, okay? That was fucking disgusting." Chris said, shivering in disgust.
"If you value the health of everyone involved, there won't be a next time" Gordie said gravely.
Chris started laughing but, noticing that Gordie wasn't laughing with him, decided to stop, smiling to himself. They continued down the hall, both feeling secure in their new relationship. Gordie, felt that Chris wanting to make him jealous proved that he cared. And, as for Chris?…Well let's just say he was no longer had any reason whatsoever to doubt that Gordie had been jealous.
