Sweets

3.

(Hi Hi~~ This is just a notice that this chapter is the story of how they met. Okay enjoy!!)

*It was summer and the town was roaring with visitors. The shops were overflowing and the streets were filled. Ben and Lizzy were walking around town enjoying the sights of the beautiful flowers and green grass.*

"I love this time of year!" Lizzy let out with a dreamy look and a sigh.
"I prefer fall. There are too many people who come around during summer. They just come in and invade our privacy." He complained.
"Yeah, but some of them are soooo nice!!"
"You're biased because of that coffee shop guy." He glared at her.
"But he was hot and sweet... It was a package deal! You can't top that!"
"Mhmmm..."

*They continued walking until they reached the suburban part of town. Walking down the roads stopping and greeting neighbors, laughing at the young children playing games. All they ever did was walk the town, meet new people and get food. It might seem as though they are a couple, but they aren't. Ben was gay and Lizzy knew that very well. They often talked about guys together. They had very different tastes though. They walked into a small flower shop owned by an old lady. She ran the shop out of her house since she had no money to lease a lot.*

"Hey Mrs. Felto!" Lizzy walked over and hugged her, as did Ben.
"Why are you two back so soon?" She said rearranging some tulips on the table.
"We just like it here, it's nice and quiet. And it smells good." He said with a smile.
"And all the hot guys come here..." Lizzy whispered into Mrs. Felto's ear with a small laugh.
"OooOooo.... I understand..." Mrs. Felto winked.

*They all laughed and continued talking. Mrs. Felto knows that Ben is gay, and she's fine with it. She has known them since they were tiny babies, so she loves them like they are her grandchildren. Ben has only told a few people he is gay. His parents aren't included in that few. He is too afraid his parents won't accept him for who he is. He is ashamed at not being able to tell, but he feels as though they'll lose respect for him if he tells them. The bells jingle and a familiar face walks in.*

"Yo Jeremey!!" Lizzy piped out.

*He is one of the nicer populars. Lizzy thinks he's really hot. Lizzy and Jeremey start to talk about anything and everything and Ben just walks around the shop looking at the flowers.*

(Ben's Head) I don't understand why she thinks he's so hot. I mean I guess he is kinda hot, but I like a guy who can be cute and hot at the same time.

*He looks over at them flirting with each other and scowls*

(Ben's Head) I wish I had someone like that. Ugghhhhh, why is love so difficult. I try so hard.

*He pouts and turns back to the flowers picking up a yellow rose. Twirling it around in his fingers. Mrs. Felto walks up to him and sighs.*

"Don't feel jealous... You'll find someone eventually..."
He looks at her confused. "How did you know?"
"I own this flower shop. You think I don't know the meanings of the flowers I sell in it?" She says, the sass showing clearly in her voice.
"I guess you would..." He glances back down at the flower and places it back with the others of it's kind.
"Good! Now go home, it's almost closing time!" She says jokingly.
"Okay, come on Lizzy. We have to go." He says while pushing her out the door and away from Jeremey.

*They get out and start walking towards their neighborhood. It's still quite far, but this is the quickest way.*

"Why'd you have to push me away like that?! I was having a meaningful conversation!!" She whined.
"I'm tired... and I was really bored..."
"That's no excuse to take me away from a really good moment..." She sped up her walking.
"I'm sorry... Ok?" He looked up and saw something in the distance.
"Wait... What is that?" He pointed and she followed his finger to a sight they both haven't seen in a while.
"Is that??"
"Yeah I think it is!!" She excitedly busted out.
"Let's go greet them!!!" She said taking his hand and walking at a way faster pace.
