Theron
Being an almost eighteen year old dad is hard. Responsibilities are piled sky high and the odds of me being a good dad like mine was to me is quite bleak. But the smile on my baby's face makes me think I'm doing alright.
But along came Bobby...
I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you.
I need you like a heart needs a beat but that's nothing new.

Smitty Ray
"Hey Smitty Ray." Jarod greets me nervously the next morning.
"Hey, what's up?" I asked with him following me to my locker.
"Now you know I don't judge but is it true?" he asks fidgeting from one foot to the other.
"Is what true?" I asked confused.
"Dude." Jarod frowns and digs his phone out of his pocket. He swipes and presses the screen a few times and turned the screen to me.
Oh fuck. What the hell!
On his screen is a picture of Blaise and I kissing in my car. I remember that day. I picked up Blaise and when we parked he pulled me in for a kiss, he tasted like chocolates. I pulled him in for a proper make out session when he licked his lips and smirked at me.
"What are people saying?" I asked sounding as normal as possible.
"Well on one hand they're saying you guys are dating and on the other that Blaise forced you. I mean it is plausible since you guys used to hang." Jarod says quickly, his eyes scanning the kids that stared at us.
I rolled my eyes and walked off to the cafeteria, Jarod still tailing me. We met up with the rest of our crew. The entire table went silent and they all stared at me expectantly. What, am I supposed to do give a speech or something?
"What?" I barked, my head throbbing the longer they stared at me.
"Blaise caught me off guard that day and besides, is it that surprising?" I scoffed and took my seat.
"The guy is obsessed with me, I would have been worried if he didn't try something like that." I see a few of my friends nodding and a few relaxing back.
"We're not hanging anymore so I wouldn't be too worried." I smiled. Pretty soon conversations resumed and we were back to how we were.
I don't think Blaise even knew what was going on in school about us. I only caught glimpses of him now and then. He looked really sad but I see Theron is there for him sometimes. At least he's not alone.

Two weeks passed but still all that gossip about Blaise and I was still news. Ugh, can't somebody do some shit and replace us?
