Everything Happens For A Reason (MikeXOMC!)

Chap. 4 A Hoser And A Fight

It's been about four months since Damian's first day at school. School was easy for him, but if he had any trouble with something, Beth or Hannah would help him out. Hannah mostly helped him with school work whenever he needed it and Beth help him in the classes that they had together. The whole situation with the cheerleaders was somewhat handled. The day after Beth and Damian made up, Damian politely told Courtney that he didn't want to be near them. However, Courtney still tries to steal him away from his friends.

Over the past 4 months, Damian has grown closer to the group. Him and Beth grew closer every day as did their crushes for one another. Mike became Damian's best friend. The two were always joking around and planking each other whenever they had the chance. The only person he didn't get along with that much was Emily. He likes her, but sometimes she's just too much for him to handle. Jessica wasn't that bad either, but she had her annoying moments as well. Josh, Chris, and Matt were like brothers to him. Sam and Ashley were like the sisters that he's always wanted.

Everyone knew that there was something going on between Beth and Damian, but the two still haven't made any move to actually admit their feelings for each other. Damian's excuse was that he was waiting for the right time to make a move, while Beth just ignored everyone who teased her about her crush. The two spent at least an hour together every day (other than school).

Mike has tried almost everything to get Damian to ask Beth out. He's given him plenty of tips and ideas, but Damian always chickened out when he went to ask her. Damian did, however, know when exactly he was going to ask her out.

Flashback

"Hey Mike, do you know when any fairs open around here?" Damian asked randomly as he stared down at the pizza in front of him. He was over at Mike's house and the two were eating pizza and playing video games.

The first time Damian came over was when Mike discovered Damian's OCD. His room had been a complete disaster, so of course Damian had a fit and immediately cleaned the mess. The others eventually found out as well when they went inside Damian's house. Hannah had asked Damian's mother how she kept the house so clean, and of course his mother told them all about his OCD. Damian was getting better though. It was an agonizingly slow process, but at least he wasn't getting worse.

"Uh about a month or so. Why? Are you going to bring Beth or something?" Mike teased as he wiggled his eyebrows a little. Damian playfully glared at him.

"No I was going to take you, but never mind. I'll just take Beth then" Mike tried to act hurt, but the two just ended up laughing until their sides hurt.

"But seriously, are you going to take her?" Mike asked once they both calmed down.

"Yeah. It could be like one of those cheesy dates where I win her a prize then pay the ferris wheel guy to stop the ride when we get to the top."

"Oh we could take the entire group, so she wouldn't see it coming!"

Flashback end

The fair wasn't until the end of the month. Damian and Mike had told everyone, except Beth his plan already and no one has dared to say anything to Beth. Damian was excited and nervous about it. He couldn't help, but think about it every time he sees her.

Today however, Damian had other things on his mind. Today one of his friends from Canada was coming to visit him for the weekend. Damian's parents were gone on a business trip, and Damian thought it would be a great idea to invite his friends over to meet his Canadian friend.

Damian scurried around the house to make sure everything was clean. The doorbell rung loudly, causing Damian to almost knock over a vase in the hallway as he ran to get it. He opened the door to be greeted by a teenage boy with brown hair and green eyes. The boy was about average height for his age and he was dressed in blue jeans and a button up shirt. "Marcus! You finally made it!" They gave each other a quick hug before Damian let him inside the house. Marcus sat his suitcase down by the door before he looked around the house.
