Accident That Never Happened Chapter 3
Class was something else today. We had a substitute, which meant I didn't have to think twice about sleeping in class. As soon as the door closed, I layed my head on my desk and closed my eyes. "Allen." I felt a nudge on my back and a folded paper slid under my head. I looked around, but I couldn't tell who passed the note. I unfolded the mess of paper and read it.
'Allen, I don't know how to say this, but I like you. Not just as a friend, but more than that. I thought of you last night. Every second of every minute, I couldn't get you out of my mind. I hope you share the feeling, I just love you. Even if you're straight, please, just consider me. Meet me after school behind the cafeteria.'
I hoped it was Pepper, but I didn't think it would be possible, the perfect guy liking me. I just wanted to believe it was him. I layed my head back down and slept.
"Allen, wake up, it's time to go." One of my friends nudged me awake. I stood up and walked out of the room. "Ah crap, I missed my classes." It was already the end of school and I slept through it all, not that going to each class would've made a difference. "Allen, come here." Pepper said from the bathroom door. I ran into the bathroom with him, he locked the door behind me. "What do ya want, Pepper?" I said, smiling at him. "I enjoyed the show this morning." "What?" It took me a bit to realize what he was talking about, but when I realized it, my face got bright red. "Don't be embarrassed, I just want you to know, I like you." "Yeah, I like you too, I like all of my friends." I gave him an odd look, but he just shook his head. "You're really gonna make me say it?" He said, staring at me. "Yeah, pretty much." I said giggling. "I like you, Allen, more than like I LOVE you." I laughed at the sound of finally hearing it from him. "Just shut up." He was the one blushing this time, but I couldn't stand leaving him like that. "I love you too, Pepper." I threw my arms around him, but all he could do was stand there. "Ya know, your brother will be gone on a date tonight, maybe we can, hang out or somethin?" "Hah, sure, Pepper." He wiggled out of my hug, and walked to the door. "Come on, lets go home." I walked behind him and whispered into his ear. "I kinda have something to do first." I walked out before him, knowing he would stare at me.
I walked behind the cafeteria, where a close friend, Peter, stood waiting for me. He was a completely average horse. Average height, weight, everything except one thing. He was hung, and he loved to flaunt it. He would strut around the locker room showing off his gift. "Peter, you are the one who likes me?" I asked, completely shocked at my discovery. "Yeah, haven't you ever noticed that I would show off to you?" He said, nervously giggling. "Yeah, but I always thought you were just really cocky, in more ways than one." We both laughed at the comment, though the laughing soon died down and he got serious. "So, will you go out with me?" My stomach twisted and turned in more ways than I thought possible. Here I thought I was the only gay guy for miles, and I just met 2 great guys that like me. "I... I'm sorry Peter, but, I can't." He looked crushed, completely ruined. "But.. why? You... You didn't even." He was looking around, and looked as if he were about to cry. Then, suddenly he attacked me. He slammed me against the wall and kissed me. I didn't like it, not even a little. "Allen!?" Pepper fell to his knees and I reached out for him. I hoped he knew what was going on. "Get off of him right now." Pepper grabbed Peter, throwing him on the ground. "I'll deal with you later." He pointed at me, going after Peter. "Come on, little horse slut, get up." Pepper pulled him to his feet just to knock him down again. He sat on top of Peter, rubbing his head into the hard concrete. "Next time you want to mess with MY boyfriend, let the image of me kicking your ass come into your head." He lifted off of Peter, grabbing me by the back of my shirt. He threw me into the back of his car and drove off.
When we got to Hale's house, he picked me up and put me in the kitchen. He sat opposite of me, staring into my eyes. "Why. Why would you say that you loved me and turn around and give that love away minutes later. Why would you ruin something we found, something we shared, something that special!?" He said, yelling. Tears ran down his face. The tears soaked the table, creating a huge puddle. "No, I didn't do that, he kissed me, I wanted to tell him I was dating you, I didn't want him to kiss me, HE pushed me against the wall, HE is the one that kissed ME, what did you want me to do? Punch my friend? I wanted it to be you, I wanted you to push me against the wall and do more things to me than I could think of!" My eyes widened with the realization of what I just said to him. "You want me... to what?" He smiled and the tears stopped running down his face. "I just... I just want you." I put my hand over his, and he relaxed. "Please, promise me you'll never let that happen again, ever." He said, finally smiling. "I promise." I smiled at him and guessed what he was thinking. "You wanna... go make it up to me?" He giggled. "Sure, I'll do whatever you want." I blushed, and he took my hand. "Aww, that's so sweet! Baby's first fight! I'm gonna keep that one forever!" I turned my head quickly and Hale was standing in the door, recording our every word on a video camera. "Delete it, now." Pepper stood up and ran at him. "Delete it you big." Pepper grabbed at the camera, but Hale was too tall. "Come on, delete it you... big... hunk." Pepper rubbed Hale's abbs, completely forgetting about the camera. "I uh... yeah..." Pepper said, trying to stop. "Like what you feel, cat?" Hale laughed at Pepper, who backed away from him. "I think I'll show this to Alice on our date tonight, I might even show you feeling me up, think she'd like that?" Hale laughed running out of the house. "Ah crap, he's gonna ruin me." I said, sighing at the damage control I will have to do. "Hey, Allen, I just got a nasty idea, it will even help you get back at Hale." He said, giving a dirty smile. "We can... uh... have some... fun in his bed." He giggled. "Ok, just promise me you'll never leave me." I was happy that he wanted to do something. I had never done anything with a guy, it would be something new, exciting. "I will never leave you as long as I live. I shall follow you after I die, staying close to your living body forever. Heaven is overrated, when I have a personal heaven, here, with you." His words combined with his sweet voice made my heart flutter. "Let's go big man." I rubbed his chest and kissed his cheek. "Let's get in bed, Allen." He took my hand and led me to the bedrooom.
