Me and You (A Patrick Stump Fanfic) [ON HOLD]

Expect the Unexpected

So, I was right, our last period was the same as Jack, Alex, Rian, and Zack. We were so excited to go home, that Alex and Rian were skipping down the hallway like two maniacs. We all suddenly came to a stop, which struck me as odd, but we're talking about my friends. They aren't exactly normal....
I realized that they were all looking mighty suspicious, giving each other the look of mischief, then looking at Patrick, and back at each other. Okay, what the hell is going on? Joe waved for Patrick to go on, which by the way I didn't know for what, Patrick gulped and took a deep breath, then pulled me over behind the lockers. I kinda like where things are going so far.

"Uh, J-Jen," he began, "I was just wondering if..." He scratched the back of his neck, and continued. "I was wondering if you would go out with me this weekend?" He blurted out quickly. I was frozen in shock, it wasn't a no, I was just--Shocked... Finally snapping out of it, I smiled warmly and hugged him by the waist. "Of course." I said nodding softly. But as I was breaking loose from our hug, he pulled me into a quick, tight hug and said
"Great! See you this friday at 6?"
"Sounds awesome, but I can't breathe Pat." He let me go and said "Sorry..." sheepishly. Wait, he didn't get mad at me for calling him Pat? I don't know, maybe it's just a best friend thing between him and Pete, because they have been friends for a long time. Not sure how long, but I know they have...

We walked back to our incredibly insane and super nosey group of friends, who tried to play off the fact that they were trying to eavesdrop on our conversation, but were failing horribly.

"So how was the convo?" I playfully scolded.

Either they all thought I was really stupid, or they were trying to be obvious that they were listening in, because I got a "Pfft, What convo?" from every single one of them at the same time. Rolling my eyes, I heard my text tone go off. Really Lily? I'm standing RIGHT NEXT TO HER. It must be a secret, because she doesn't do that. The message read:

-So what happened between you and Patrick? I NEED to know.

I nudged her and whispered "I'll tell you when we get home. Btw, are you staying over today?" That last question was literally by far the most stupid thing I've ever asked her in my whole life... like, of course she is.
