Diary of a High School Girl - Chapter 2
I shivered as I waited for the bus, my fur bristled all the way down to the tip of my tail. It was a miracle that I was actually here before the bus since I had woken up late this morning. I had rushed through my shower and instead of drying my long hair, I had it tied up in a long braid that reached past my ass. I sighed as I saw the bus rounding the corner, my hair was stiffening as it froze, and my coat wasn't doing a good job at keeping my body warmth in and the cold air out. My patients were at wit's end when the bus finally stopped and the door opened, because I rushed inside trembling like I had just been in an ice storm. Sono and Tyka were sitting in the back and looked at me worried. Shaking my head, I sat down between them and cuddled up against the two of them. They smiled softly and wrapped their arms around me, letting their body heat warm me up.
By the time I recovered, we had already arrived at school and were racing down the side walk to see who could get inside faster. We stopped just inside the front doors, laughing as we panted for breath, then arguing on who won. By the time we sorted everything out, we had walked upstairs to our class room, and Aki had arrived and joined the group. After five more minutes of arguing, Aki interrupted and asked if we could just call it a tie; we looked to each other shrugging our shoulders and nodding, before we all burst into laughter. I wiped a tear from my eye when I finally stopped giggling, then looked to see that Tyka and Kyaka finally joined the group, but everyone was now intently starting at me. The problem was, they weren't looking at my face, and when I looked down, I noticed ( as did all the guys) that my blouse had a button come undone, and was showing my black silk bra underneath. My cheeks were bright red as I blushed and crossed my arms over my chest, turning my back to them and quickly doing up the button. Looking over my shoulder( Yes, my back was still toward them, do you blame me; I was embarrassed!) I saw that most of them were fiddling with their fingers and the others were scratching the back of their necks, all of them blushing as much as I was. At that moment, I then realized why they all treated me more like their little sister then their equal, they all had, should I say, crushes on me.
Well this was awkward, I mean it surely explained a lot, but what was going to happen now that everything was exposed. At this moment, didn't know, all I knew was that I needed to breathe and stop blushing, so I excused myself to the bathroom. No one objected, they all looked like they needed a moment to think alone too. As soon as I was past the classroom doors I ran to the bathroom, because I had a sudden jolt of energy? No, that wasn't right, adrenaline maybe...hmm I'm not sure, but it just felt right to run, I had to get this odd feeling out of my system. Inside the bathroom, I turned on the cold water and splashed it on my face, trying to make the burning blush in my cheeks disappear, and after a few minutes it did. I took some paper towels and dried my face then looked in the mirror as I thought about what just happened. My mind didn't want to really register anything other then the obvious, but that didn't explain the reason why it felt like there was a mass of butterflies in my stomach. I stayed looking at my reflection for a while until one of the girls from my class came in and said that the boys had been waiting outside the bathroom for the past few minutes. Nodding I thanked her for telling me, trying to pull myself together to look normal as I did. It worked. I guess for she smiled and left.
All-right Angel pull yourself together, deep breath, and walk out. The boys were leaned against the wall outside the girl's bathroom, just like I was told, and they had all composed themselves too. Yet when I opened my mouth to say something, they shook their heads and motioned for me to follow them. They took me to one of the empty classrooms where we could have some privacy, and had me sit down on one of the desks. It was then that they sighed and one by one started to clue me in on how they felt. Sono started, first saying that they all had come to love my personality and friendliness that I had shown them all when I first befriended them, and as I watched them mature and grow over the years, they did the same for me, except they were all noting how my figure came in and how my bust and ass grew to match my new slender figure. They were all nodding and Aki put in that as slowly as it happened, they all had come to love me, not just my brand new filled in body, but my wit and personality too. Tyka threw in the fact that they all liked how I was a little girly but was still a little bit of a tom boy too. I looked at Kyaka who was silent so far, and before he said anything he gave me a hug, then said, that it would be unfair for them all to ask me to choose which one I would date, so instead of that, he asked if I would consider the thought of friends with benefit.
Insert car crash noises as I came back to reality, say what?! Did he just say friends with benefit? Or was I just hearing things? I looked at all of them, they looked as nervous as I felt. I spoke up now saying, "ok, let me get this straight, friends with benefits is like having all the props of a girlfriend or boyfriend with any one of your friends but without the attachment, right? And you want me to consider this with all four of you?" They looked a little scared that they might have threatened our friend ship, but they still nodded. Aki speaking up and saying that if I did agree to it, they wouldn't force me to do something I didn't want to. I looked at them for a moment as I thought over the whole situation. I love them all as friends, but do I like them as more then just friends, I mean could I see myself letting them do this to me knowing that there was no love attached. No, that was wrong, there would be love attached, they all admitted that they like me as more then a friend, but would that be enough to make it feel right? I guess I wouldn't know until I gave it a try.
"I will agree to this under two conditions, one is that no matter what in the end we are still good friends forever" The boys nodded, " and two is that I'm giving this a try, and I will pull out if I think its threatening our friendship, or if I start to feel uncomfortable about this whole thing, ok?" Another sent of vigorous nods came from all four of them and they rushed over giving me a hug and nuzzling their heads against me to express their gratitude for me even considering their idea. I think if it wasn't for the bell, they would have tried out their new friendly limits, and for that I was almost grateful for having to go to class.
We managed to get seated in class just before the professor walked in. Through the lectures, I found myself wandering into thought, and asking myself what had I got myself into. What's sad was I didn't really know, I had a rough idea, but other then that I was totally clueless about this whole mess. And let me tell you I was starting to feel a little uneasy, you know that feeling when you can all most feel when people ( the guys in my case) are just staring at you. A small set of shivers ran down my spine, making my tail bristle for a moment.
As far as the rest of the day went, it was fairly normal. The guys still piled food on my plate when lunch time came around, and chatted like nothing had ever happened. OK. I will admit we all feel a little weird at first, but it was only moments before we all lightened up and relaxed. It was an unspoken agreement that the friends with benefits did not have to start right away, but rather wait a day or so for the whole thing to settle into us all mentally (especially me). Of course that didn't account for the feeling of their eyes on me during the rest of the day. Even after school, all four of them, Aki, Sono, Tyka, and Kyaka, insisted on walking with me over to the pool, and I couldn't quite understand why until I was standing at the edge of the pool ready to get in.
It suddenly clicked, when I saw them lined up against the window, watching my every move that I started to piece things together. Not only did they want to see me in my swim suit, they were also glaring at the boy's team, who were about to get in too. I had to cover my giggle as I found their jealously very amusing and almost heartwarming. They were serious about their feelings toward me; this was proof, and it was rather cute to see them acting so ...trivial? Hmmm not sure how too quite put it but it was cute. They would stay at that window for the next two hours until my practice was over, I was dressed, and ready to go to work.
My entourage followed me all the way to work and stayed there until I got off too. Tell me if I was imagining things, but it sure looked like that not only didn't trust other guys, but they didn't trust each other either, almost like they didn't want someone to spend too much time with me, or be the first to test their new friendly limits. I laughed inwardly, wasn't the point to share the feeling with all of them instead of just one? And they are standing there like a bunch of rabid wolves ready to fight over a carcass, or me in this case.
They also persuaded me to let them accompany me home, even though I told them that I could walk myself home just fine like I did every day. No matter how much I tried to get them to go home, none of them would leave until they saw me on my porch unlocking the door. Hell they even tried to come in and help make dinner, mom and dad were gone yet again, so that left me to fend for myself. Of course with these four I'd never had the chance, but before they would argue more, I firmly closed the door and locked it, telling them to go home. It was a little mean and rude, but for heavens sake, I needed some alone time to think about the whole day.
And what better place to think but in a nice hot bath tube with bubbles and oils to help relax anyone after a long day. Slowly I stepped in the hot water, hissing softly for it was only a few degrees from scolding my skin, but it would be well worth the heat taking the tension out of my muscles. I laid back, the water softly swirling around my neck, just like my thoughts were inside my head.
It had been a very long day, and an odd one at that. I think I knew deep down that they all had feelings for me, but I pushed it aside thinking I was being paranoid. Yet everything pieced together perfectly, the reason they were always treating me more like a younger sister, always looking out for me, and usually never being without at least one of them near me during the majority of the day. Funny how things just sort of clicked today after they had exposed themselves, and yet almost scary though at the same time. Since now I know I will never be alone, because one of them will be watching over me even when they think I don't see them.
Oh yes. I saw the whole lot of them before I got into the bath tube from my bedroom window. I laughed and washed my hair out then scrubbed the chlorine from my skin before stepping out of the tube. Drying off a little, I walked over to the window trying to put on a serious face before I opened it and yelled at them to go home. This was going to be an interesting week.
