Ben's room
Spy school
June 1 2100 hours

Ben's pov:
Erica Hale was by far the most extraordinary person that I had ever met. Unfortunately, until tonight she was dating that mean sociopath Joshua Hallal. I alwas had to tell myself, at least Erica is my best friend. It's hard to explain. I have loved Erica the moment I met her, unfortunately, she was dating Joshua Hallal before I came to spy school and on our first mission together, I didn't know that and I asked her out. She of course said no, because she had a boyfriend. She apologized, but nothing could put out the fire that was burning in my cheeks.

Now at 2100 hours Erica is in my room crying into my chest because she saw Joshua cheeting on her with a gymnast named Ashley Sparks.

I didn't know how to comfort her other than what I was already doing.

Then I got an idea
Erica's pov:
I saw Joshua CHEATING on me with Ashley Sparks.

I immediately cut all ties with him and screamed at him. I never really liked him in the first place. He kind of forced me into the relationship. We never really hung out anyway. Now the only people I can trust are my family and...

Ben

I ran to his dorm with tears threatening to spill out from my eyes.

When I got to his dorm I aggressively knocked on his door and he answered the door on the first knock. I walked in and shut the door then tears exploded out of my eyes. He sat me down on his bed and sat next to me and just hugged me and rubbed my back.

I relized that I was at that point where he was just slightly shorter than him. It was nice, but stuttering I told him what happened, and he kissed me on the head. When he first did it, it was kind of awkward.

Then it was nice.

I liked Ben.

A lot.

I was still slightly sniffling, and so Ben grabbed a keyboard, and several other instruments out of a bin in his closet.

He started playing Turning out by AJR.

I hold you.
I hold you closer than I ever knew.
I could do,
But I'm confused.
I thought I'd recognize when love was true,
But I'm confused.

Am I ready for love?
Or maybe just a best friend,
Should there be a difference,
Do you have instructions?
Maybe I'm stuck on what I see on TV,
I grew up on disney,
But this don't feel like Disney,

You say I turned out fine,
I think I'm still turning out
You say I turned out fine
I think I'm still turning out
I think I'm still turning out

In my mind,
I thought birds would sing and sparks would fly,
But it's just quiet.
Am I cruel?
Am I ignorant or was I fooled
By the stories I knew?

Am I ready for love?
Or maybe just a best friend,
Should there be a difference?
Do you have instructions?
Maybe I'm stuck on what I see on TV,
I grew up on disney,
This don't feel like disney

You say I turned out fine
But I think I'm still turning out
You say I turned out fine
But I think I'm still turning out
I hope you stick around
Were going to figure it out
Who can I turn to now?
When I'm still turning out
When I'm still turning out

I'm a little kid and so are you
Don't you go and grow up before I do
I'm a little kid with so much doubt
Don't you want to be there to see how I turn out?
I'm a little kid and so are you
Don't you go and grow up before I do.
I'm a little kid with so much doubt
Don't you want to be there to see how I turn out?
I'm a little kid and so are you
Don't you go and grow up before I do.
I'm a little kid and so are you
Don't you go and grow up before I do
I'm a little kid with so much doubt
Don't you want to be there to see how I turn out?
