Sweet And Sour [ Mandy x Chester / Manchester ]

Part 2 - Friends

- Chester's Pov

"Do I know you?" She looked at me for a few seconds and finally spoke again.

"I'm not sure. I feel like I do, I just can't remember your face." I went silent for a few seconds and decided to speak up again.

"Did you go to Starr Field for elementary and middle school." She looked at me surprised and whispered.

"Yeah.." I chuckled. "I knew I'd see you again!" I said in teasing voice. We used to be best friends through our elementary and middle school, and she really hated but me, but I knew she really didn't.

"So, how have you been, Mandy? Did you miss me?" I said, smiling. She seemed annoyed by my presence because of how much she 'hated' me.

"Yknow, I really was hoping I didn't meet you again."
"Well, look where we are, back at day one."

Just as I finished my sentence, both of Mandy's friends came back, I totally forgot their names.

"Woah, looks like you 2 have quite an interaction. What happened when we were gone?" I realized how fast this all happened within minutes.

"We went to the same elementary and middle school." Emz smiled in excitement."Awwwee!! So cooll!!"

She pulled out her phone and took a quick photo of her and Chester together, posting it captioned; "#new student vibes!!"

Strange, but she seems cool. We ended up talking until class was over.

"That was a long class, to be honest." I check my schedule to see what class I have next. PE? That's probably the worst class yet. I guess I could get changed in the locker room, I just have to figure out where it is..

After searching the crowded halls, I found the gym, and next to it was a female and male locker room, I entered inside, and every stared at me for a second like I wasn't supposed to be here. I slowly walked to the locker assigned to me and got changed. As I was changing, someone tapped my shoulder and turned to see a tall man with purplish hair next to me.

"Hey, I noticed you in class with that big group of girls, I'm surprised you got along with them so easily!" I chuckled and said,"I happen to know one of them from my old school." He looked at me confused and smiled.

"Which one?" ... "Mandy. We were best friends throughout elementary and middle school." He looked surprised."I would've never guessed!" He laughed off.

"By the way, the names Fang, what about you?"

"Chester, nice to meet you."

He grabbed my hand and led me to of his friend."You could hang out with me and my other friend, Edgar!"

We walk over to the gym and sit on the bench with Edgar. Chatting with Fang was fun, Edgar was just listening to music the whole time waiting for P.E. to begin.

"Soooo... Chester! What do you know about Mandy?" I didn't know what to say at first, I honestly don't remember as much.

"She's really mean and bossy, but I think it's funny how she only acts like that towards me. She's a totally different person when chatting with someone else." I laughed off.

"Maybe she does that for a reason." I stopped talking to think about what he said."What do you mean- I wasn't able to finish my sentence before the P.E. teacher walked in, telling us to get into a straight line. Fang and I walked towards the white line in the gym and face forward towards the P.E. teacher.

"I will put you all in pairs of 2. That person will be your partner for the rest of the month unless I feel the need to change it. Please remember what number I give you all."

Seriously? Not being able to pick partners is hell. In elementary school, we always got to. I would pick Mandy all the time. "Chester, I believe is your name. You're number 2, and your partner will be Emz."

Emz? That's unexpected. But I'm all in with it. I looked around for her and spotted her right next to me.

"Dang, you scared me!"

"Sorryy, I just get super excited to work with new students!"

Yeah. I could tell.

"We're supposed to start with push-ups, jumping Jack's, blah blah blah. Whatever, let's just chat."

"The gym teacher might see us."

"He's blind without his glasses, plus he won't hear us from behind him." That seems like a 'great' reason. But I'll stick to it.

"So what did you want to talk about, Emz?"

"Would you want to have a sleepover with me and my other friends? Plus Fang and Edgar." Honestly, I wouldn't mind.

"Sure. Why, though?"

"Just a friends night! Play games, watch movies, fun activities, and stuff."

"I'm down, today at 8?"

"Yes, I'll send you my address right now."

We ended up chatting until our gym class was over. I headed back to the locker room to get changed again, and Fang approached me again.

"You and Emz were having quite a conversation back there. What were you two talking about?"

"The sleepover tonight, I'm surprised she invited me to be honest."

Emz seems like the type of person to get along with anyone.

"Well, see you there, Chester!"
