Run Away Heir

9.1: Maybe never

"Where are we going?" Jordan asked while eating his sandwich.

"I swear that if I see a single trace of your sandwich in my car, I'll not think twice to kill you," I warned him.

Guess what he did?

He picked up every single crumb he sees... great, genius.

"I can hear you guys even if I'm wearing earphones," Declan complained while looking outside the car's window.

So if you're wondering what I answered to Bentley and Mr. Frazier, I told them I needed time to think.

Yeah, truth hurts... don't you think?

"Give it a chance Declan, you're gonna miss it at college," Jordan protested.

"Really? I think that I'll be relieved," Naomi joked and only Declan laughed.

"Meanies," Jordan whined then ate the last bite of his sandwich.

"Mama's boy."

"Ado–"

I parked the car and eventually got off then the others followed... well, after a couple of minutes.

"Well look who decided to show up?"

We all looked at the source of the voice and guess who owns it?

A drunk guy who works as a boxer and a party planner on Fridays?

No, not really.

Well... close enough actually. Better luck next time.

"Of course we'll show up, Raymond. We also study here," Naomi answered and crossed her arms.

"Hmm... Good point," Raymond answered then cocked his head slightly to the right.

May I connect my fist at his face now?

I've been waiting to do that for literally ten weeks... no wait, I think ten and a half? Or eleven?

Okay, nevermind that, who cares how long would that be, so let me summarize...

I just want to connect my fist on his face with force.

"It's kinda sickening that you would show up all of the sudden and you would be saying that without a good morning or afternoon," Naomi retorted.

"Or a good afterlife," Jordan added.

"Shut up," Raymond quickly answered.

All of our attention went to him. Well, atleast the four of us.

"Eh, nothing? Let's go then," Declan bluntly said and started walking.

"But wait, I'm no–"

"We can't hear you!" Jordan yelled.

I sighed. I wonder when will these two get married... Or are they already? Such a shame that they didn't even think of inviting us.

"So when are we gonna stop with the savage?" Naomi asked while laughing as she recalled the scene. I pulled out a slight smile.

"I don't know. Maybe never?" Declan said while swiftly walking to the beat of what he's listening through his earphones.

I have never laughed so hard during my entire life. Even Declan who has his headphones on turned his attention to me. Jordan and Naomi looked at each other for a second and looked at me who is nearly crying and holding his stomach due to massive laughter.

Then... I realized...

"What are you looking at?" I immediately said when I noticed them looking at me in horror.

"Is he really Bennett?" Declan whispered to Jordan. Jordan replied, "I don't know... maybe he's possessed."

"You do know that he can hear us, right?" Naomi said, breaking the current scenario.

I shrugged and turned away from the three then walked back inside the campus. This is quite embarrassing.

I looked back and saw them, plainly staring at me. Are they not over this situation yet? "You guys want to be late for class?" I asked while chuckling. They smiled and finally walked inside.

"You know what-" Jordan paused and smiled wider, "-you should stay like that."

"Come on... I don't want to turn into an idiot who laughs out of the blue... kind of like someone I know," I answered.

"You're kidding!" He retorted as we laughed altogether.

These dorks... they sure are a handful.
