Father's Son

by AnAlivePoet

An incredibly overly-dramatic-and-aware-of-it story that takes place before, during, and after the film. Angela Sullivan is seventeen years old, goes to Ridgeway High, and acts at the local theatre. And when she meets Neil Perry, both of their lives will change in ways she couldn't imagine, even long after he's gone. Rated M for adult themes in later chapters.

PHONE CALL #2

Neil called Angela that evening after dinner.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Angela."

She grinned at the sound of his voice. "Hi, Neil. How was your first day back at school?"

"It was okay. Boring, mostly. We have a pretty neat English teacher this year, though."

"Oh, neat!"

"Yeah."

"So... why did you call me?"

"Oh, well, hah-I kind of just wanted to hear your voice." That made her heart leap. "And also tell you that I don't think my friends really believe you exist."

She laughed. "Mine don't think you exist either."

"Oh great!" he laughed. "So we're on the same page here."

"I think this means we have to introduce each other to our friends, as embarrassing as that whole ordeal sounds."

"Well I'd gladly introduce you to the boys. They'll love you, Angela. Really. We don't see too many girls around here, you know."

"Okay, so... when?"

"Um... do you want to drive up here on Saturday?"

Angela smiled. She'd get to see him at the end of the week! "Yes! Yeah, I-that sounds fine with me."

"Great. Listen, ah-someone else needs the phone, but I'll call you later this week about visiting information and stuff like that, okay?"

"Okay."

"Okay-good night."

"Good night."
