How To Live Dead

Chapter 3: A Man Got To Do What a Man Got to Do

                Brayden:

    I threw my book bag on the floor. Another day of school ended.

   I was supposed to be doing my homework, but i didn't feel like doing it. Not that i ever feel like doing it. I had a date today with Tiffany. This was our first date.

      I think that Tifanny is the only girl who doesn't know much about me, other than I'm hot, & i can fool her to think i like her.  She was always so lovestruck when she was around me, & she always was trailing behind me in school. Plus, she told almost everybody she knows that we were dating.  She had one big mouth.

      It was 5:25. Our date started in 5 minutes. I was meeting her at this new restaurant. But, as usual, i was always late on the very first date.

    My shirt smelled, so i took it off, & put on a clean shirt. I put on some gel. It was already 5:34. Our date started 4 minutes ago. I hopped in the car, & drove over to the restaurant.

      There was Tifanny, all dressed up as if we were going to the ball. But, I had to be nice to her. This was our first date. So I faked a smile & told her she looked nice.

       Tiffany ate up all my compliments. To be honest, I thought she was really boring. She would say something negative about herself, & so then i would have to reassure her that she was wrong. Then she would smile widely, & say thanks.  Its like she needed me to compliment her, so she would see how a "wonderful" boyfriend I was.

      After our date was done, I was glad. I dropped her off at her house, & kissed her. She practically swooned. It's like she thinks I'm Prince Charming, or something.

     My cell rang. Even though I know you're not suppose to talk & drive, I pick it up. "Hey," i say.

    "Hey," my friend Sebastian says. "Do you think she knows?" he says.

     I laugh. " 'Course not! Why?"

     "I didn't see her today."

     "So?" I say.

     "Well, I don't know..."

      "Don't worry. If she did know, it wouldn't be pretty sight."

      "Ok. Well....see ya, man."

      "Yeah, see ya." I hung up.

           Sebastian:

    I didn't want Kimberly to get hurt. What Brayden was doing wasn't. He already messed with her, so why was he doing this? It was wrong. So wrong.

     I admit, I had a crush on her ever since last year, freshman year. That was the year Brayden when out with her, too. And that was how I was, also. But then I grew up.

       I knew alot about her, because Brayden told me everything about her. I knew her dad died, & a bunch of other messed-up things. He told me about this poem that her dad wrote to her. He red it to me. I was amazed, but I didn't feel right poking round in her stuff. Brayden says there's something wrong with her, something she's not telling; he could be right about that.

        No, I wasn't going to do that. I am not going to hurt her more.

       C'mon, man. She was the one who did that. It's for her own good, the words he told me, echoed in my brain. It didn't make sense; she wouldn't do that. Or would she? I knew alot about her, but I didn't really know her. Brayden knew her; he dated her. But still...

           No, I thought. He's right. She can't do that. It's for her own good.

          Part of me says, No, she doesn't deserve it, but the other part says, Man up. Who cares if she doesn't deserve it? It's the right thing to do.

     My other side won. In 2 weeks, I will ruin everything. And I wasn't really proud of that. What was Brayden thinking?

     What was I thinking?

    A/N: Yeah, I know it kind of short:P Sorry guys. New Character: Sebastain! Pay close attention to what he says! Its going to get more intresting as it goes along

      The next chapter is Kimberly's pov. Let's see what she has to say on her mothers' sudden pregnancy!
