Robin Arrellano

There was a shock silence.

 With my mouth gaped wide open, I stutter, " W-wait. You like me?"  Gwen blushed, " y-es. I was wondering if you felt the same?"

I stand there, embarrassed that someone a grade younger liked me. 

"Gwenny, uh I mean Gwen?" I start.

Her head shot up with a hopeful look. 

" Gwen, look. Your a nice girl and all, but I'm a grade older than you. I apppreciate that you like me, I mean who wouldn't?" Gwen looked confused. 

I scratch the back of my neck, " What I'm trying to say is that, me and you can't be together. Maybe you should find-"

"But I don't understand!" Gwen said shaking.  " We barely know each other, and besides, I kinda like... someone else." 

Gwen squinted her eyes ,about to cry, " Who?" 

I laughed nervously, " You don't need to know that."

Gwen balled her fists, " No! We were meant to be! I'll prove it to you!" She turned around and stormed away. I stood there. 
"Dam. I messed up." I slap my forehead in frustration.


Finney Blake

I was outside waiting for Gwen when she bursted outside and starting running away past me. It sounded like she was crying. I catch up to her, worried I say, " Gwen?! What happened!?"

Her eyes were red with tears, through her sniffles, she murmured, " He said no.."  I knew it. Robin isn't the type of guy who would date a grade younger than him. He says its unprofessional and un-suiting for him. An idiot, I know.  

" Hey, it's ok! You can find somebody else." I say, comforting her. 

"No! I love Robin and only Robin. Besides, he likes someone else."  My eyes go wide in shock, he had a crush? That was new to me.

"Ok then..... find a way to make him like you. Like..... impress him!" I say, trying to give advice. She looked thoughtful, "Hmmmm, that's not a bad idea."

I hug her, " Even if he doesn't like you back, I'll always be here for you, and always love you!"

She grins and wipes her eyes, "Thanks, Finney. Your the best."

( I TEARED UP WRITING THIS EVEN THOUGH IT WAS CRINGE. IM SORRY IM SORRY. BUT I LOVE GWEN AND FINNEY.)


Gwendolyn Blake

Once we got into the house, I went into the living room and saw dad. Terrance Blake. Suspect known for abuse and drinking. 
" Gwenny?" He murmured. I flatten my dress, "Yes, daddy?" He rubs his forehead, " Go get me another beer."

" Of course, daddy." I walk into the kitchen where Finney was washing the dishes our dad was supposed to clean. 

"Is he awake?" he asks without looking at me. 

"Yes. He wants me to get him a beer." I say as I walk over to the fridge.

Finney stopped what he was doing, " But we don't have beer, we ran out 3 days ago. I already checked."

I wrinkled my nose, " Then what are we going to do? Daddy's going to get furious."
Finney put the last dish away, " I'll deal with him, you go to the store, and get him some beer."

I grimace, " Are you sure?"

He nods and heads to the kitchen.  I queitly tiptoe to the door, and walk out. 


Finney Blake 

"GWENDOLYN LAKE, WHERE IS MY BEER?!" Terrance screamed from the other room. I hated calling him dad. 

"Um, we kinda ran out." I murmur.  

Terrance got up, took a step sluglishly, " Where's G-gwenny?"

I fold my arms, " Why?" He burped and I wrinkled my nose, "WHERE IS SHE?"

I sigh, " Getting beer for you." He narrowed his eyes at me, "All by herself?" I nod slowly, " Don't worry, she'll be back." 
He started to walk out the room, " She better be. No longer than 10 minutes or she'll really get it."
I walk out of the living room, going upstairs.


Gwendolyn Blake

I stop at the Grab'n go place. Once I walk inside, I heard a familar voice.  Bruce. I look around until I see him sitting down with another boy. One with dirty blonde and curly hair. Vance Hopper. 

"Bruce?" I say. He stops talking and looks up. He freezes when he reconizes me.

"Gwen? What are you doing here?"
"Getting beer for my dad. What about you?"

He just sat there queitly.
