Parker Jackson-Hunt

"I can't do this anymore!" I screamed at Laura.
"What the hell is your problem Parker?!" Laura screamed back.
"The problem is I'm in love with your little brother!" I felt the tears come to my eyes as I pointed at Kendal who was standing over in the corner.
Just hold on for a second, I have some little explaining to do. Before I tell you how I got into this situation maybe I should introduce myself. My name is Parker Warren and I am a sophomore at Berrien Springs High School in Michigan. I'm 16; going to be 17 in July. I also finally accepted that I'm gay. My journey to this conclusion mostly starts in August, about a week before school started.
I woke up around eleven o'clock like I have almost every other morning that summer. I could hear my mom vacuuming the house and my sister yelling which means she was playing Halo. I sit up and stretch my arms and back. I throw the covers off, letting my bare legs meet the cold air in my room.
I grab my towel and bathroom supplies, making my way to my bedroom door. I pass my sister's door and I can hear her yelling profanities at her opponents. I continue walking down the hallway to the bathroom and pass my mom vacuuming under the couch.
"Good morning mum!"
"Morning Parker!" she yells back. I reach the bathroom and in about ten minutes I'm walking out, meeting the bitter air. I run to my room, holding my towel, and rush to get dress. I throw on a pair of black straight leg pants, black t-shirt, and a plaid over shirt.
'My girlfriend's bitchin' because I always sleep in!' I flop onto my bed and grab my phone off my bedside table seeing Ashton's name flashing on the screen.
"What you want?"
"Is that you talk to your best friend?"
"I don't talk to Kendal like that, just you."
"Well I feel hurt now. Anyway, come pick me up so we can go to the park. You have ten minutes or I'm kicking your ass."
"I won't come if you're going to kick my ass."
"Please Parker; I will make you strawberry shortcake cookies again."
"Fine, but only because you said please. I will be there in five minutes." I hang up and put my purple Converse on before walking out my bedroom. I wave bye to my mum and grab my car keys from the table. I get into my black beauty and start the engine. She comes to life and I pull out of our driveway. Ashton's house is a five minute drive from my house and then another ten minutes to the park. I pass by Laura's and Kendal's house, seeing his blinds still shut which means he isn't home.
I pull into Ash's house and I check to make sure her father isn't home. I honk the horn three times telling her that I'm here. Her father isn't the biggest fan of loud noises or me. He hasn't liked me since the beginning of seventh grade because he started to think that I wanted to sleep with Ash. I roll the passenger seat window as Ash is locking her front door. She runs and climbs in through the window, like she has ever since she watched every single episode of Duke of Hazards.
"Come on, hurry up. I want to get to the park."
"Calm down Ash we will be there in ten minutes," I say calmly while pulling out of her driveway.
"If you can make it five minutes then I will have my grandma make you here famous baked chicken." I step on the gas and in four minutes we're at the park. I see Laura and internally groan. I hung out with her all afternoon yesterday. I park the car and we both get out. Ash grabs my hand and we start jogging to the soccer field. Last time I was here was the day before Kendal left and that was three years ago. When we get close she stands in front of me, blocking my view, since she is as tall as I am.
"Ok so after I show you this, you are going to love me forever for planning this." She moves out of the way and standing in the middle of the field, is Kendal. A smile breaks out on my face and I sprint to him. He catches me in a hug and we start laughing hysterically. I feel that I should explain why we are like this.
Three years ago, Kendal and I both signed up to go to England for school. Sadly I didn't get accepted because my bastard of a dad forgot to pay the tuition, which was all my money, and used it to go to Vegas with the woman he was cheating on my mom with. He was the first friend I ever made in school when he pushed another boy off a swing for me. Since that day, we have only talked to each on the phone or text.
"Parker, it is so good to see you again! I've missed you!"
"Oh my god Kendal, it is so good to have you in America again! Tell me how England was."
"You will find out at the dinner tonight Parker. Right now you need to take me to the mall so I can get a dress for tonight," Laura, my girlfriend and Kendal's sister says. I sign because she knows how much I hate shopping. We walk to my car and I get in, waiting for Laura to get in. After a few seconds, I look out the passenger seat window and see her standing outside still. I roll the window and see an impatient look on her face.
"Why are you still out there? Are you going to get in?"
"I'm waiting for you open the door like a good boyfriend." I unbuckle my seatbelt and lean over the console. I pull the handle and push the door open for her. She hops in with a grumble but doesn't say another word about it.
We pull into the mall parking lot a good 40 minutes later. I unbuckle quickly and rush over to her side before the door opens. I have to make up for earlier. I lightly grab her hand and help her out of my car.
"Ok so first we will head to JC Penney's, then Macy's, and finally Dillard's. What color dress do you think I should get?" She asks while weaving through the crowd of people.
"I would buy a purple dress since that's Kendal's favorite color. And don't have it too shorter, remember he hates seeing you in such revealing clothes. You may be older than him but I wouldn't test him." We walk into JC Penney's and she gives me this weird look.
"What is that look for babe?"
"I feel that you know more about my baby brother than you know about your own girlfriend."
"I know slightly more about him but only because I have known him a good two years more than you. But go ahead and test me on my knowledge about my second favorite girl." I lean in to give her a quick peck but she dodges it.
"What do you mean second favorite? How is this hoe that is first?!"
"Calm down Laura. My first favorite girl is my mom and she is not a hoe." Her cheeks go a deeper shade of red than her makeup, showing her blush. She mostly only ever blushes when she gets embarrassed.
"I'm sorry Parker. You know how jealous I can get." I peck her on the lips this time since she doesn't bother to move.
"You look hot when you're jealous and I like when you make sure I'm only yours. Now let's find this dress of yours."
Well that is the first chapter. I feel pretty good about this story and feel that it will go far. Above or to the side is how I picture Parker. I hope you enjoyed it and leave your input--SmartCookie--
