Hope For The Hopeless (Cricky)

Chapter 17~

(Ricky's P.O.V.~)

After we finally got our food, we all sat down in a big booth, and started eating. I sat there awkwardly for a little bit, not really eating my food...It didn't take long for them to notice.

"Ricky, you okay?" Ange asked, making Chris and Balz look over at me.

I looked up and asked "What? Oh y-yeah, I'm fine....I'm just zoning out I guess..." none of them looked convinced, but they nodded.

"Well don't worry Ricky, it's alright..It's your birthday, live it up!" Balz said, shoving four ketchup dipped fries in his mouth.

"Yeah baby, it's okay." Chris said, rubbing my back....He's the sweetest guy on this fucking planet, I swear. I smiled a little and said "Okay." and I started eating.

About halfway into our meal, we started talking about assignments and upcoming tests, when Chris said "No fucking way.."

I raised an eyebrow and asked "What is it?"

Chris stood up and I followed his gaze to this guy nearby. He was tall, had darkish hair, and looked a lot like Chris. But his ears were stretched way out, and his eyebrows were so thin, and he was wearing all black.

"Kuza?" Chris asked, causing the guy to look up from his phone, then look at us.

The guy smiled and said "No way...Chris?!" Chris got up and walked over to the guy, before hugging him. The guy hugged him back and said "It's been so long!"

Chris smiled and said "Yeah! What are you doing here?!"

"I moved down here a couple days ago, I'm just exploring this place."

I had no idea who this guy was, but I didn't get a good feeling from him...Well I pretty much don't get a good feeling from most people.

"Well I'm glad you're here, come on let me introduce you to some people." The guy nodded and they came back to the table.

When they got there, Chris pointed at him and said "Guys, this is my friend Mike Kuza, Kuza, these are my friends Josh and Angelo." Ange an Balz smiled and waved at him, and then he pointed to me. "And this is my boyfriend, Ricky."

I put on a smile and waved at him. That's when I noticed something..He was looking at me weird......I didn't know what it was, but it was probably not a good sign.
