Chapter 4
"Wendy?
Where have you been?!" her mother exclaimed. Stan
shuffled away
"I was at Bebe's," she replied
"Really,
then where is she, and why is Stanley here?"
"Uh, I was just
making sure she got home alright," Stan answered nervously
"Bye
Stan," said Wendy giving him a kiss on the cheek, and whispering 'I
love you' along the way.
As Stan walked down the driveway he
could hear a faint yell
"NO, MOM, HOW COULD YOU THINK I WOULD DO
THAT? DON'T YOU TRUST ME?"
Stan felt guilty about getting
Wendy in trouble with her mother. By what Wendy was
yelling, he could tell what her mother had asked. They
wouldn't do anything like that anytime soon. Sure they loved each
other, which is why they are waiting.
Meanwhile, at Bebe's
house, things are quite different. As Bebe opened the door, her
mother greeted them with a cheery 'Hello'
"Who is this
handsome young man?" she asked
"Mom, this is Kyle," Bebe
said, giving Kyle a kiss on the cheek. Kyle turned red and looked at
the ground.
"Well, thank you for bringing Bebe home safely,
Kyle," Mrs. Stevens added
"Bye Kyle," Bebe said sweetly
"Cya
at school tomorrow," he replied. As Bebe closed the door Kyle
started walking away
"Kyle, wait!" Bebe cried, running after
him. Kyle spun around at the sound of his name.
"Your coat!"
she cried, as soon as she reached him she pulled him into a
passionate kiss, which he eagerly returned
"Cya later, Kyle,"
said Bebe as she ran up to her house. Kyle stood there, stunned, as
Bebe giggled up the steps.
Once he regained feeling in his
legs, Kyle started walking back to Stan's house. He caught up with
Stan who was shuffling along with his head down.
"Hey dude!"
Kyle said cheerily
"Oh, hey," Stan replied sadly
"What
happened?" Kyle asked worriedly
"Wendy's mom opened the door
just as we were saying good-bye…"
"Kissing?" asked
Kyle
"Yeah, then Wendy went inside. I guess her mom somehow knew
that she was at my house overnight and not Bebe's"
"Oh
no!"
"Uh huh, then Wendy started yelling about how her mother
doesn't trust her and junk"
"She doesn't think that you
two…"
"I'm pretty sure that's what she thinks."
"But
Wendy is smart she would never…you would never…!" Kyle
spluttered, he hated seeing his best friend so sad.
"I think
that her mom doesn't trust me because of my freaking father"
"Ya
that would make anybody nervous"
"I don't know what to do;
her parents are going to keep her away from me for at least a
month!"
"Well maybe if you respect that they will learn to
trust you." Kyle suggested
"Yeah I guess…oh dude, what about
next Saturday?"
"You could always sneak her out, if not, I
think that Bebe and I will be fine on our own," he said with a
wink
Stan was eating dinner when the phone rang. He answered
it
"Hello?" he said, he can hear sobbing faintly in the
background, and somebody speaking sternly
"H-hello?" a wobbly
voice answered
"Hi!" he replied, "Wendy?"
"Yeah, hi
Stan," she answered tearfully "listen, I'm so sorry, I tried to
tell them, but they just don't trust you…"
"Whoa, slow
down, start from the beginning." Stan said soothingly
"Well
after you left this morning, my mom asked me if we…"
"Yeah…"
"I
guess somehow she knew I wasn't at Bebe's, maybe it was because
you walked me home…"
"Sorry"
"Don't be, my mom's
the one who opened the door. Anyway, I don't know how she should
have though I would do that, but then she asked again and I lost my
temper and yelled."
"Ya, I kind heard that."
"Oh you
did? Anyway, now she thinks I am lying and that you are a bad
influence."
"What?...no!"
"Yeah, I even told her about
the song you wrote, but she wouldn't listen. She just kept going on
about how your dad does this and that."
"My dad is so fucking
stupid, it's not even funny. I'm nothing like him!"
"I
told her that you were different, but she wouldn't listen! In the
end, she said that I'm not allowed to see you or speak to you,
outside of school, for two months!"
"No!" Stan cried
"I
love you Stan!" Stan could hear her mother yelling at her to hang
up
"I love you too Wendy!" Stan shouted into the phone, hoping
that her mother would hear his plea.
