Southern Blend Personalities

Chapter 4

As the morning sun came creeping into Sean's bedroom, he drearily rolled over to catch a glimpse at the alarm clock, which had failed to wake him earlier. What he though was sunrise, was actually cloud break. It was noon. well past time to go to school, but Sean ended up in the cafeteria at 1 o'clock just in time for lunch. He finds Andy and Deeks at their usual table. Intent on figuring out who Caroline was dating, he began with Andy and Deeks, both had no answers for Sean. After striking out with Andy and Deeks, Sean then turned to Rose who possessed the knowledge Sean desired. " Hey, Rose, who's Caroline's new boyfriend?" Sean asked while sitting down beside Rose. "Well Sean, it's not good. It's Aaron." Aaron Read, a transfer from California. Trim, sun-tanned body, short spiky hair, and aura of smugness en-clouded him. Aaron was the silent type, or as Sean called them douchebags. Trying to convey their life story with their eyes and clothing. Aaron drove a Maserati stradale, which Sean referred to as the cockster. Sean and Aaron's feud began after pretty boy lost a street race to Sean's camaro. The race was for pink slips, but naturally, Aaron welshed on the bet. "How in the hell did that daft bastard convince Caroline to go out with him?" " I don't know Sean, but I hate it just as much as you do. She'd been going out with him for weeks before school started, but never told me. Aaron's a dangerous guy Seanie, he's not good for her." " Just exactly how dangerous?" Sean asked inquisitively. " The rich asshole got off on rape charges last year, because of his fucking lawyer. Date rape and abuse." " With God as my witness, If that prick hurts her, he'll answer to me. That dickhead won't walk again. I promise you that." Sean calmly stated while clenching his fist tight around the edge of the table. "Calm down Seanie! You'll have to outrun me and her parents." "Oh don't worry. If he does anything; me, you, Andy, Deeks, and her parents will all be after his ass. He can run, but he'll die tired." " Damn straight Seanie." Rose said without a hint of doubt. " Remind me again, why is she going out with this prick?" Sean asked dumbfoundedly. " Well, I don't really know" Rose stammeringly answered. " Her last breakup with Austin was pretty rough. Maybe she's desperate or something." " Caroline,... desperate.... your'e joking right, she is gorgeous, Rose. every guy here is practically throwing himself at her feet, except me." Sean replied. "Hey asshole, you helped her through that breakup, and you called me worried out of your senses about her. That breakup was horrible for her. She feels like she isn't good enough to find someone else, someone better. So she'll do anything to keep this smarmy cunt happy. Because she's so afraid of not being able to find a better man." "And who would you have her date, just out of curious inquisition?" Sean asked sheepishly. "You, Seanie. I actually think you and her would make a great couple. I mean yeah, you'd be whipped like a damn slave, but you two would at least be happy together." " You're right, I'd be whipped as hell." Sean said jokingly but completely serious." As Sean and rose laughed like children at their remarks, the bell rang, and they both went off to their classes
