Unexplained

The Park

When we got to the park, the sun was setting already. Although, since we were already there we decided to go for a walk.

Brandi and Chris were walking together, arguing about something stupid that Chris said. And knowing Brandi she won't let it go unless he admits what he said was stupid.

They weren't far behind us. Julian wrapped her arm around mine.

I felt a sensation I haven't felt in a long time. I felt like a little kid at Disney world. It was the bliss of happiness. A high never discovered.

Then I hear someone clearing their throat behind me. Chris and Brandi were winking at me. I glared at them. Nothing worked.

Then they started humping the air in front of them. Brandi was making a sloppy make out face and Chris was still humping the air.

I flipped them off using my free hand.

"Everyone was wrong about you. You're not what they say you are." Julian snuggled against my arm.

"Which is?" I questioned.

"You're not an ass. They say the reason you don't have anyone, is because you chased them away." She looked at me with soft caring eyes.

"But under that stubbornness and narrow minded head of yours, you're a lot more than what meets the eyes." We stopped and she faced me seriously.

"You've accomplished a lot, but suddenly fell and I noticed this, because for the past few days you've done nothing but stare at your notebook as if something inside if you died." She looked to the side and grabbed both my hands.

I didn't know she looked at me. If I did I would've talked to her sooner than expected.

"During that week we had to write in our journals, you wrote in the heading, 'one life for anothers' and in that journal, you asked God to bring him back , and to take you instead. And suddenly I saw the side I fell in love with." She leaned into me.

Something in my throat swelled up and before I knew it, tears streamed down my cheeks.

"Ben! Oh I didn't mean to make you cry. I-I, what should I do-" I cut her off by hugging her.

"Thank you. Out of everyone in school you treated me differently, I am grateful." I whispered in her ears.

My shoulder felt wet, when I pulled back she was crying.

Brandi and Chris ran up to us. "We should head back. Patrol car just pass by, and I don't want to end up back in their station." Chris huffed.

"And stop making out in the dark. That's gross." He added.

Brandi got closer to us. "You okay Ben?" Her voice was full of concern.

"I'm fine." I smiled with my tear stained cheeks. "No you're not. Look you can tell us anything. You got me." She pointed at herself.

"The dumbass and now Julian." She pointed at Chris then at Julian. Chris was offended by her choice of words.

"You can tell us anything." She smiled warmly. That was a first. She must really care, I never knew. I always thought they hung out with me because they were sorry.

"And if you don't I'll choke you." She also threatens. I spoke too soon.

"No wonder you don't have a boyfriend." Julian muttered.
Brandi probably heard her, when she did, she slowly turned her head to Julian with a smile that was so deranged I felt like I was gonna piss myself.

"That's it!" Brandi shouted as she lunged at her. Lucky Chris got her before she could rip Julian apart.

"Come on let's head to the next pod station." Chris lifted Brandi over his shoulder as he walked away.

"Put me down!! CHRIS YOU KNOW I HATE BEING CARRIED." Brandi screamed.

"Yeah, and I hate carrying you, you weigh like a ton. Better lose those watermelons." Chris groaned.

Brandi had a straight face, then lifted her leg and kneed him in the nose. Chris dropped her, she landed on her feet and flipped him over.

"Remind me not to call her fat." I whispered to Julian.

"I will, if you will." She replied.

"Hmph." Brandi dusted her uniform and walked away, with her chin up.
