Her Goon// Dean Portman// Book 1

"Oh Kenny"

"Kenny?" I said looking at the small boy, his face in his hands.

"Ken what's wrong?" I asked him sitting down

"I don't know what to do Harls. I've never felt like this before." He looked at me tears in his eyes.

"Felt like what." I asked putting my hand on his shoulder.

"Had feelings like this." I was confused. What does he mean.

"Feelings like what Ken?"

"I think I like someone."

"Like someone? Kenny all the girl are-"

"No no. Not a girl." He said getting quite.

"I think. I think I like Dwayne. More than a friend."

"Oh Kenny." I said giving him a hug.

"Hey I love you no matter what. Gay, straight, black, white, blue, purple i don't care, your still my best friend." I said. He looked up at me.

"But it's not like he's gonna like my back. He's a country boy. Aren't they supposed to be like really homophobic."

"I think that's just stereotypical country people things. Honestly I think Dwayne is kinda fruity. And for all we know he could be." I said he smiled a bit.

"I don't know what to do Harls!" He said slouching back wiping his tears.

"I mean I really like the guy and he could be fucking homophobic."

I gasped, "Kenny Wu did you just cuss?"

"Shut up I'm emotional right now." I laughed

"Does anyone know?"

He shook his head, "No just you." I smiled at this, knowing Kenny could trust me.

Dwayne's POV:

I was going into the lounge area to read. The boys were being loud in my room. When I heard Harley comforting Kenny.

"I think I I like someone."

"Like someone? Kenny all the girls are-"

"No no. Not a girl." He cut off Harley.

"I think. I think I like Dwayne." He said. My eyes widened. I had definitely thought Kenny was cute. And I'm 100% gay but I wouldn't think someone like Kenny would like someone. Like me.

I listened into there conversation more, "Oh Kenny." Harley gave him a hug.

"Hey I love you no matter what. Gay, straight, black, white, blue, purple i don't care, your still my best friend." I smiled at Harley's words.

"But it's not like he's gonna like my back. He's a country boy. Aren't they supposed to be like really homophobic." That was hateful.

"I think that's just stereotypical country people things. Honestly I think Dwayne is kinda fruity. And for all we know he could be." I mean I do act a little fruity sometimes, but it's because I am.

"I don't know what to do Harls!" Kenny slouched back a bit.

"I mean I really like the guy and he could be fucking homophobic." Again really hateful and kinda bitchy.

"Kenny Wu did you just cuss?" I had to stifle a laugh at this.

"Shut up I'm emotional right now." I snickered trying to keep my laughter from coming out.

"Does anyone know?"

"No just you." Maybe I could talk to Harley about it.

Harley's POV:

Dwayne had texted me to come to the lounge a couple hours after Kenny asked I was unsure why but I went anyways.

"Hey Dwayne." I sat down next to him.

"Hi Harley." His rich Southern accent rolled off his tongue.

"I'm I have something to confess."

"Okay shoot."

"SoIkindaeasedroppedyousandKen'swholeconversationandIknowhowhelikemeandIlikehimebackandIwanttoaskhimoutbecauseIlikehimaswell." He said in a jumble of words. I could make out some but not all.

"I didn't quite catch that." I said

"Long story short I heard your little conversation with Kenny and I like him as well." He said. My eyes widened and a smile formed on my face.

"Oh my gosh you do!" I squealed. He chuckled nodding.

"You should go for it. I mean he likes you back so why not." I said.

"I think I'm going too."

"You need to." I said taking his hands.

"Invite him to hang out and say 'Hey Kenny I really like you do you wanna go out on a date or be my boyfriend?'." I said in a southern accent.

"Either one could work." I finished.

"Your accent is trash by the way." He said chuckling.

"Thanks. Now go hang out with Kenny and ask the little dude out." I said standing up and dragging him out.

"Okay! Okay? I'm going stop!" He laughed.

I'm probs gonna make the next chapter revolve around Kenny and Dwayne lol. Idk what went though my head with this couple but I like it lol. -cat
