SWMRS-- Cole Becker

Chapter 1

It was around 3 a.m and I was really hungry and couldn't sleep. I decided to go to my local burger joint which was opened 24/7. I walk in and take a deep breath. I loved how it smelled in there, I'm not really sure how to explain it, it was just so comforting. I came here so often that most of the workers knew my name. "Oh hey Sophie! What can I do for ya?" My friend, Farrah called out to me. Farrah was 28 years old and parented me more than my actual parents did. I'm not saying my parents were horrible, it's just they were always busy when I was a child and didn't have much time to pay attention to me. Farrah was always there, and I could talk to her about anything! "Hey Farrah! Just came in because I was hungry and couldn't sleep. Could I get an order of fries and a chocolate shake?" She smacks her gum and grins. "Of course honey! It will be about 15 minutes, haha we're a little short staffed at the moment." I nod my head and go over the the bar area and sit down to wait. I pull out my phone and start scrolling through instagram. About 3 minutes later, the bell above the door rang signaling someone had come in. I ignored that and kept on my phone. It sounded like more than one person came in, as they were all laughing at something and talking very loudly. It was staring to get annoying and I looked up at Farrah to see if she notices. She too looked annoyed and rolled her eyes at their loud behavior. I look back down at my phone and feel there presence come near me, I glance up to see how close they were. One of them was about 1ft away from behind my head, which made me very uncomfortable, considering I had severe social anxiety. I got up and walked away to a booth, to get away from the 4 men. "Order up!" Farrah called. I walked up to get my fries and shake. The men who walked in became quiet as I walked up to get my things. Some of them started whispering, until one finally said "Sophie? Is that you?" I glance over to see who said that. Oh. My. God. I choked, "C-Cole Becker?" He smiles and nods his head. "I haven't seen you since 8th grade!"

Cole Becker was the guy I had a crush on since 2nd grade. He wasn't popular,

he was very musical and I liked that. He was always so poetic and I admired

him. We talked a little, but not as much as I would've liked.

He walked over to me. "Whats up!? I'm so glad I ran into you!" I could barley breathe. He was just as beautiful as when I last saw him, but now he had green hair. "Oh I-um- I'm playing guitar now.." I wasn't sure what to say! "Oh dude that's awesome! I'm in a band, we're called swimmers but it's spelled S-W-M-R-S." He made a gesture to the other 3 guys who were with him. I shyly wave and they wave back. Cole turns to me again, "So you said you played guitar, that's awesome! I'll have to hear you play sometime!" I swear I saw him wink when he said that. "Oh uhh yeah, would you want to hang out sometime?" SHITSHITSHITSHIT. My mind was racing, what was he gonna say?! I cringed, getting ready for him to decline, "Yeah! That would be great! Wanna exchange numbers?" My brain just exploded. Cole, motherfucking Becker, the guy who I had a crush on since 2nd grade, wants to exchange phone numbers. I nodded my head and pulled out my phone and gave it to him, and he gave his to me. I quickly make my contact and give his back. After about a minute, he gave my phone back. "Thanks Cole, um, it was nice to see you." I say as I wave bye to him and take my stuff to go home.

I open my phone to text Cole 'hi'I froze at his contact name he put in... it was "COLE IS THE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE!1!!" I laughed and then finally gathered myself together and texted him.

Me: "hey!"

Cole: "Hey! What's up?"

Me: "Just walking home while eating some cold fries"

Cole: "lol"

Cole: "Whats your bra size??"

Me: "Um.. haha what?

Cole: "Do you suck dick?"

Me: "Cole, what the fuck?"

Cole: "I want you to suck me off ;)"

Me: "Cole you're making me really uncomfortable.."

I put away my phone and shook my head. What's going on with him? Ugh, he was probably faking before just to get in my pants. Fuck boys. I decided to go sit down on a bench and eat the rest of my fries and drink my shake. I pull out my phone, as my phone was buzzing rapidly.

Cole: "Your lips would look so hot around my cock ;)"

Cole: "You would feel so good"

Cole: "I can't wait to see you naked"

I needed to call him. What the fuck was going through his mind?

*ring ring*

Cole: Hello?

Me: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?-

Cole: Woah whah woah what?

Me: Ugh don't fuck with me Cole, just.. don't talk to me again..

Cole: NO WAIT! SEB-

I hung up and let out a sigh. Fuck. Boys.

I finished eating and started walking home again. I hear footsteps behind me, it sounded as if they were running..? I started walking a little faster.

It's not as I lived in the bad part of town, it just wasn't always safe at night where I lived.

I feel a hand on my shoulder and before I know it, I punched someone in the face. But this wasn't just anyone... it was Cole. "SHIT IM SORRY I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS YOU AND I THOUGHT YOU WERE A PERV SO I FREAKED OUT OH MY GOD IM SO SORRY" He was huddled up on the ground, clutching his nose. "I'm fine! But damn you're strong"

"Actually... Im not that sorry.. you are a perv." It hurt me so fucking much to say that, but it was true.

"NO WAIT! You know those guys I was with?? One of them stole my phone and started texting you Im so sorry-"

"yeah.. sure they did"

"No you don't understand! They love to mess with me and this was one of these times!!"

I stopped walking. "I don't know if I can believe you.."

Cole got up from the ground. "Seb is just over there! Go and ask him!!"

I walked a little but before I came before a tall man wearing all black. "um.. are you Seb?" I asked. He looked down (because I was so short) "Oh uh... yeah?" "Did you steal Cole's phone and text me really fucking creepy stuff?" "Y-yeah.." It took all my self control not to kick this guy in the balls. I nodded my head, gave a silent 'fuck you' to him and walked away. I wasn't sure if he heard my say that or not so I walked a little more quickly, as he was really fucking scary.

I came up to where Cole was. "Dude, I don't know what's your deal but-" "No, Sophie, please! Give me another chance! It wasn't my fault!"

I sighed and gave in "Fine, whatever." I mean, what could one chance do? Cole grinned "So, about you playing guitar..." I scoffed. "Not a chance. I suck." He complained, "Please?! I really wanna hear you play!!" I laughed, "Okay, but prepare to be disappointed." He smiled. "So, when do you wanna hang out?" My heart froze. Cole Becker wanted to hang out with me. Me. The girl who is so clumsy she has almost broken her head open my tripping over her own feet. "Oh! Uh, w-whenever time is free for you.." He thought for a second "D'you wanna hang out tomorrow?" I nodded. "Do you wanna come to my house? My parents will be at work so no one will bother us" I asked. His eyes.. widened?

After talking for a little bit, I gave him my address and the time he should be there.
