I'll Be There (Broseph) (JosephxBrandon)

Chapter 2

Brandon's P.O.V.

My first day of school was okay, my teachers were nice, classes were easy, but receiving friends was difficult. I figured out that the guy on my bus was named Joseph. I think he caught me watching him a few times, I hope he doesn't think I am weird. 

I was in my language arts class when the teacher announced she was picking groups for the next project. 

She started calling people for groups, and the class started growing in size as people went to find their partners. 

I noticed Joseph standing across the room, waiting for our teacher to call his name. 

"Joseph Beckett, aaaaand.......Brandon Albino." For a split second, my face lit up, but wanting to look cool, I put on my cool face. But on the inside, the word SEMPAI was so loud I barely noticed Joseph asking me a question.

"So...what do you want to write about?" The teacher had given us a project where two people have to write a story together.

"I feel we should do something exciting? Do you know what I mean?" I nodded, and we got started. Really quickly, I figured out that Joseph and I work together quite well, and I think he thought that too. 

Our story was about a boy who fell down a hole and ended up in the underground, that had no light. He had to survive with other people who were trying to escape. 

Joseph and I were pretty happy with our story, and we decided to read it aloud, even though we had only gotten a small way through. The teacher wanted us to work on this over the weekend with our partner, and encouraged us to share phone numbers so we could get together over the break.

I was getting my sempai's number. I was getting Joseph Beckett's number. 

"Here, I can type it in for you." Joseph offered as I stared into space. I snapped back into reality, and handed him my phone, offering to do the same thing for him. 

We waved goodbye as the bell rang, and as soon as I turned away, I did a little happy dance, celebrating the fact I got to be friends with Joseph.
