Faint Memories

Chapter 2- Winter Simplicities

"Why hide the news and websites? Why censor shit when we gonna find out anyways from other sites and people who are willing to be way more open then your moms legs."

Now Cue Carmen being overcome by a fit of laughter.

"Alright cut! That's enough for the video." I announce trying to hold in my laugh. The "cameraman" stops recording and starts looking at the footage we have so far. I'll be cringing at that later on.

"Aweeee. I was getting to real juicy part of this whole project. Me grinding on you," Arden smirks while pulling me towards him.

I pry his hands off me while still laughing.

"Maybe when there aren't people around." I smirk back making him let out a full out laugh.

As a group we all huddle the iPad and begin editing the videos for our group project. It's on censorship, ah reminds me of freshmen year when we all did this. Seeing as how we have a new teacher at the school, he didn't know we already did it and no one let him in on it so its an easy A.

"We're only a few seconds into it and you already have a dirty joke in it." Rory groans while trying to edit it out.

"I'm just keeping it real and grasping the audiences attention in a new way." Arden proudly says leaning back onto me with a wide grin. I smile but push him away.

Now I'm assuming you guys think that we have a thing. It's understandable but nah. We're just friends, we've been friends since we were wee little lads.

We met each other around 6th grade in detention. We're juniors at the moment by the way.

That's right, I got detention in 6th grade. I'm a badass. But as pathetic as I am, I got detention for flicking a piece of fruit and they claimed that I was starting a food fight.

Pffttt. I would've thrown my pizza instead.

Arden got into detention for being late to class, which is unlike him. The guy is always on time or early. Anyways, he got detention and was basically being a wuss about it. Arden kept mumbling under breath, so like the classy bitch I am, I sat next to him and flicked his head telling him to shut up.

Now that children, is how you make friends. With a guy. Now some are gonna throw those comments where it's like "how come you two haven't grown feelings for each other?" Well it's because we kind of established that we wouldn't. Things would get complicated and if we broke up, then we'd ruin a great friendship.

We're too alike to like each other anyways. I swear we're like twins. But twins that throw sexual jokes back and forth so it's weird.

Don't judge or question it. It just works.

When the obnoxious bell rings, they throw the iPad at the teacher and we all grab our stuff to run out the class. Lunch at last.

I run to my locker only to bump into a really hard chest. Thank god it was just a chest.

"God damn girl, watch it." The guy huffs while walking away.

I roll my eyes and keep running to find Eva slamming closed her locker and running towards me screaming. I look behind her and see Tory making out with another guy against her locker.

Ha, no. I just tease her about that because she's a 'trashy slut' I like to say. But she's just standing there banging her head against her locker.

"I'm pretty sure I just failed my test. She gave us notes to study that weren't even on the test."

I shake my head in disapproval and start putting in my combo.

"Sounds like a personal problem." I mutter for her to hear.
