Here we go, this is short and not my best but I hope you like it! This was prompted by beauty behind the words!
"Woah," Eddie grinned at the computer screen.
He shot up from his seat and bolted for the door. He brushed past the other students in the hallway, using his height to see over the teens. At the end of the hallway, back against the wall with another tall blonde leaning towards her with his hand on the wall above her head, was Mara Jeffray.
"Mara," he popped up next to her and Jerome.
Jerome stopped from his place, a breath away from her lips, and turned to glare at Eddie.
Mara sighed with a blush and smiled at the punk. "Yes?"
"I've got a hot story," he jerked his head toward the newsroom.
"I've got a hot date," Mara replied and Jerome turned and smirked at her smugly.
"Come on, this could be the story of the century." Eddie told her excitedly.
"We're trying to get reservations for Ivy's." Mara looked at him pleadingly.
"And I'm trying to get Yacker to take one bite of hoagie; neither of those things are gonna happen." he shook his head and grabbed her wrist, pulling her away from the wall. "Come on."
"Hey, Junior," Jerome's hand shot to Eddie's wrist. "If she doesn't want to go, don't make her."
"Dude, Jerry, come on. You'd do the same thing." Eddie rolled his eyes and tried to shake off Jerome's grip.
"No, I'd ask her nicely and she would say yes, or we'd work out another time."
"Journalism has no time; when the story's hot, you gotta grab it; and right now, we've got a hot story and we need to grab it."
Mara wrist was released and she looked between the two boys. The other students somehow hadn't noticed the two blondes who were now nose to nose, and had dispersed to their classes.
"Listen, Sweety, Mara can choose whether she goes with you to check out a story, that is most likely not a worthy story for the paper, or she can come with me to class; we're going to be late." Jerome said just as the second bell rang through the school. "And now we are,"
"Mara can come with me and then meet you in class—"
"Don't I have a say in this?" Mara interrupted, raising an eyebrow at the two.
"Sorry, Jeffray, of course you do." Jerome backed away from Eddie to Mara's side.
"Come with me," the raven haired girl gripped their wrists and pulled them down the hallway to the newsroom. "Show me what the story is and then we'll go to class."
"Alright," Eddie's grin appeared on his face again and he took the chair in front of the computer he'd been using.
Jerome waited by the door while Mara read the story Eddie had found. Mara raised a skeptical eyebrow and turned to Eddie with a small smile.
"Eddie,"
He turned to her.
"That's not a story, that's a concert you want to go to this weekend."
Jerome scoffed, rolling his eyes to the ceiling, leaning his back against the doorframe.
"Yeah, but I'm sure everyone in school will wanna go too." Eddie replied.
"No one in school listens to…Black Veil Brides...they're really creepy looking." She commented when she scrolled the page to see the band's picture.
"Their music's awesome! Andy Six is a screamo; he totally rocks."
"Thank you for sharing this with me, Eddie, but no one will care about this. We need to write stories that people of the school will find interesting." Mara straitened and ruffled Eddie's spiked up hair as he slouched and grumbled. "Come on, let's get to class."
"Whatever; I still got tickets." Eddie shrugged and walked off to find Patricia.
Black Veil Brides are a totally fudgin' awesome band! Andy Six (or Sixx or 6) is a screamo and he's awesome! Black Veil Brides remind me of Kiss...look 'em up and let me know what y'all think!
