Ed and I has bonded a lot. I don't know him that well but I feel like I've known him for years.
Problem was still playing as Ed and I was doing our must 'Morden teen' dance moves we could think of. What is the definition of cringe. Ed grabbed my hand as he twirled me around like a princess.
He then let go as he broke down into weird dance moves. He flew his arm up in the arm then down to the ground quickly. He pretended to pull a rope to drag me into this hell hole.

"Come on! Embrace your weird side!" He laughed.

I playfully rolled my eyes as I started dancing along with him. It was so much fun. Ed felt like my brother from another mother that I never had. It's so supporting and has an awesome personality. if anyone saw our dance moves without context then it would just look creepy as hell.

Craig's POV

I decided to go for a walk this morning since I didn't have school and it was a nice day. I grabbed my coat and my dogs led.

"You wanna go for a walk!" I said in a babyish voice to my dog. Alli. She was a big golden labour with an loyal personality.

I put the lead on her and walked out into my small neighbour hood. There isn't a lot of kids my age where I live so most day I usually just hide in my room and play video games but when it's sunny I try not to waste my day.

I was walking where ever my legs took me until I found myself at a relaxing beach. I was just walking around it causally when I heard some singing and laughing. I didn't think much of it. Probably just some teenagers messing about with the music from the fun fair. I started walking that direction when I recognised the voice.

My heart starting going crazy. It has to be her? She hasn't been in school in days. I need to see if she's ok. No one has seen her.

I fasted walked over to the direction when I stopped in my path. It was Penny. With a guy. I don't know who he was but she was having fun.

I thought she didn't let people in.

I sighed loudly as I watched them dancing. Her laugh filled the air like nothing else.

"Penny, didn't know you were a dancer." The guy with dirty blonde hair smirked.

"I'm not! You call this dancing!" She spun around then kicked her legs in the air.

"Yes I call it's fabulous dancing! Just like mine!" He froze then immediately did a FREAKIN back flip! Penny froze and her mouth dropped open.

"Oh my flipping god! How the hell do you do that!" She shouted.

I could feel my heart being ripped out and thrown on the ground. I don't know why I felt like that. I don't have feelings for her? But just seeing her with another guy after being protective over sharing things, she just lets in this randomly guy.

I was about to turn around and just walk home when alli started barking.

"Alli stop!!! Shhhh!" I shouted at her.

I notice Penny turn her head around to me but I quickly turned my head around trying to hide my face.

"DOG! Ed!!!! Pleassseeee!" I heard Penny beg.

"Of course! What you think I am? A monster?" He laughed as I heard foot steps came closer to me.

"Hey?" A deep voice said. "Can we pet your dog?" He asked.

"Sure.." I awkwardly said.

"Craig?.." Penny said unsure.

"...yea?" I sighed turning my head around to show my face. "What's up?" I sadly said.

"You ok?" She studied my face trying to figure out what's wrong.

"Oh yea I'm fine, who's this?" I asked looking over at her friend.

"Oh Craig this is Ed. My friend, and Ed this is Craig." I put my hand out to Shake his and he accepted it.

Ed? Who is this guy? Why do I feel like I want to punch his face? I don't even know the guy, well anyway he's making Penny happy that's all that matters.

"Penny? Can I talk to for a minute?" I looked at Penny to say without Ed.

"Yea sure. I'll be right back." She said as she walked away with me.

"I'm sorry about the other night. I know I was kinda all up in your face and personal life." I apologise. I felt bad for trying to force her to tell me everything that's wrong. I should just give her time and let her know she can trust me.

"No it's fine. I know you were trying to help." Her eyes looked down at the soft sand beneath our feet. "Can we just forget it happened?"

I kinda shocked. I don't know how I can just forget about the first time I actually got to know the real Penny. I've always seen her around school and found her interesting. Great now I saw like a prev. Well I always watched her when she was near me and at first I noticed she was different from everyone else but I'm kinda socially awkward. I'm really bad at talking to new people but I finally grew up and decide to talk to her now it's just all happening too fast.

"Umm yea sure... if you want." I lied. I don't want to forget about that! I wanted to help her.
"Are you coming back to school soon?" I asked her as I realised she hasn't been in school.

"Umm......probably......not any time soon." I hesitated while saying that.

"Aww... ok." I didn't want to question her. Even though I wanted to know I let her have her own secrets.
"Well I guess I better go.... umm see ya." I waved.

"Byeee." She said uneasy.

I took a deep breath. Said bye to ed and walked away. Why was that so hard for me?
I feel like Penny's just changing my whole world right now. I felt like a good person trying to help but maybe I was pressuring her into something she doesn't want to talk about.

I just hope Ed knows how to help her and not to force her like I did.
