High School Screw Ups

Chapter 16-Breakfast Club

~Charlotte~

What a fucking awkward drive, Emily decided for some reason she was going to sit in the front with Riley, I have no clue why, it was a recipe for disaster. Riley didn't say a word the whole time but his knuckles were white from gripping the steering wheel, Emily kept glancing over at him, the poor girl, they really do love each other. It sucks to watch them both struggle. We finally got to the hospital and Riley opened the door for Emily, sweet. I turned away and when I looked back Riley kissed her on the forehead, c'mon guys, you can't do that you broke up for fucks sake. Emily walks over to me and holds my hand as we walk in, I feel like this is going to be a long four days...

~Kyle~

"look babe I know you feel like shit right now, but this isn't the answer, self-harm is not the answer, I know it's the last thing you want to hear right now but I think you should go in with Emily, to the hospital, this needs to stop, now. You are worth so much more than you think you just need a little push and a little help to realize that okay?" I felt bad even thinking it but saying it to her was a hundred times worse. She needs it though I mean her mum just died for crying out loud, she's supposed to be hurting, I just don't want her to get like, well, to get like me... She agrees to go without question and I let out the breath I didn't realize I was holding. I reach out to give her a hug and hold her in my arms for a while. "Baby I love you so much", I whisper, it's the second time I've said it to her in a matter of minutes and she just starts crying, I hold her and play with her hair as her tears subside. We just sit for a while taking each other in then we finally get up and I place a kiss on her forehead before jumping into the shower, I'm staying the night at hers for the first time and I'm really nervous, we both agreed to not do anything yet because neither of us ever have but even still I feel like we will. I jump out of the shower and when I come out she's already in a towel, which leave both of us in the same room, nude. I look her up and down and she blushes walking into the bathroom. I quickly get dressed and sit down on the bed listening to her sing in the shower, she has the most amazing voice, it's like watching honey pour out of the bottle but at the same time it's got an edge to it, I lie back wondering how I got such an amazing girl as the water stops running. She walks back out in pyjamas, "happy one month babe", she exclaims, I almost forgot. "Happy one month", I reply laughing. She sits down on the bed and starts cuddling up to me, I flick the tv on and start playing the movie we picked, we're watching 'The Breakfast Club' Charlotte has never seen it! 'Dear Mr Vernon, We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it is that we did wrong. But we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is each one of us is, a brain, a princess, and an athlete, and a basket case and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club.' I punch the air with Judd Nelson and Charlotte lets out a little giggle. The end music starts playing and I move to turn it off but Charlotte pulls me in and we start making out, slowly and passionately, 'what's she thinking' I wonder and we speed things up a bit, I start kissing her neck and she arches her back letting out a soft moan, that's when things get serious and she pulls my shirt off, I start to lift hers up but just before I get to her chest I stop and looking her in the eyes I ask if she's sure and she just nods and I can tell that she's ready, I lift her shirt over her head and start moving down her body leaving a trail of kisses as I go I realize that she was sleeping in a shirt and panties so I start kissing around them and on her thighs. I look up at her and she nods, her face showing pure ecstasy so I slowly pull them down and, well I'll leave it up to your imagination what happened from there. I woke up the next morning and Charlotte's head was on my chest so I didn't want to move but I really neeeeed to pee. Luckily she wakes up shortly after me she sleepily says good morning and gives me a peck on the lips sitting up, I say good morning and duck quickly to the toilet thinking about last night, how did I get so lucky? I think to myself when it hits me, Charlotte leaves today for hospital. I spoke to her dad about it before I even mentioned it to Charlotte so he knows I walk back in to the bedroom as Charlotte pulls on her shirt. "Ready to go babe?" I ask as I pull my jeans on. She nods and we make our way downstairs. Her dad has already made breakfast and as we finish we hear the doorbell ring, Riley's here. I start getting up to get the door when I see a crop of blonde hair race past me, Emily. I laugh as she opens the door then the mood collapses, both their faces fall when they see each other as if they just broke up all over again. I pull Charlotte into a hug and kiss her on the forehead and she gets into the car with Emily as they drive off I wave and Charlotte waves back, tears welling up in her eyes. I sigh and go back inside to help her dad clean up after breakfast, this is going to be a long week...

~Emily~

As soon as we get out of the car and I watch Riley drive off I realize something, Kyle stayed over last night! "Hey Charlotte", "yes Emily". It doesn't take me long to ask what happened the night before and Charlotte just blushes and looks down. "Oh my god, you had sex didn't you!" I exclaim and by the look on Charlottes face I can already tell they did, she nods letting out a little giggle, I wrap my arms around her head, "my little girl is growing up", I laugh and then the reality hits of where we are, I grab Charlotte's hand and we walk in side by side as it was meant to be.
