Short Story #36 - Ditching - Hazel and Frank

__________________________

*Frank and Hazel are not dating.*

*Separate from all other stories, but personalities are the same yet modernized.*

__________________________

The smile on Hazel's face shows exhilaration as she runs down the hallway of her High School. She not-so-carefully dodges around people, yelling out "Sorry!" as needed.

Frank's eyes follow her blur of a figure.

"Today. Today is the day." he whispers as he tries to psych himself up for what he is gonna do.

As Hazel comes closer, Frank purposely steps out in front if her. She yells out as she collides with him. They 'gracefully' fall to the ground.

"Breath." Frank says to himself in his head.

"I am so sorry!" Hazel exclaims.

"It's fine. I should have gotten out of the way." he responds smoother than he thought he would. He gets up and then holds out his hand for her. She takes it, stands up, blushes, and mutters a "Thank You" before running off again.

Frank smirks as she rounds the corner. He succeeded. The piece off paper was safely tucked into her jacket pocket. He walks into his classroom and looks at the clock - 11:45am. 30 minutes. He can (hopefully) make it.

Hazel sits down in her assigned seat and gets out her supplies for MATH (Mental Abuse To Humans). Oh, how she hates math. When she leans over to grab a pencil from her backpack, a piece of paper falls from her jacket. She picks it up and unfolds it.

It reads:

Hazel,

I need to tell you something desperately. Use a pass to get out of class today at 12:15pm. Meet me at the back of the Tech Lab, where we won't be caught.

- Frank

She is momentarily stunned before she glances at the clock - 11:55am. 20 minutes. She can (possibly) make it.

Frank decides to leave a little bit early, just in case. So, at 12:10, he asks to go and his pass is signed. He walks all the way to the 700 wing bathroom, before going into stealth mode. He gets around all of the staff and makes it to the back of the Tech Lab right at 12:15.

Hazel leaves a little early too. She follows Frank without him noticing. She slips around to the back only a minute after him. As she walks around the corner, the view of Frank leaning against the wall with one foot on the wall makes her swoon internally. His face breaks into a breathtaking smile as his eyes meet hers.

"I was worried that you wouldn't show up." he says as he rubs the back of his neck nervously.

"Well, you said it was desperate..." Hazel responds, her cheeks a light pink. She steps closer to him. There is about a foot of space between them and Frank is almost a head taller than Hazel.

"Okay." Frank says. He exhales through his mouth before speaking, "I like you. A lot. I have for a while now. And I couldn't find the right time to tell you. I really don't want to ruin our amazing friendship, but I could not handle keeping my feelings balled up inside. So... yeah."

Hazel responds without missing a single beat, "I like you too."

The grin that dominates Frank's face at the sound of those 4 words takes Hazel's breath away (again). It's infectious too. Frank leans foreword and grabs both of Hazel's deliciously soft hands. He brings them up and slowly walks toward her. She, being pulled by her hands, takes a step back and feels the cool concrete wall against her back. Frank continues to move foreword and pins Hazel's hands above her head. Their noses touch and then their lips.

Hazel sighs contently as Frank's luscious lips caress her own. He lets go of her hands and uses his own to stroke her beautiful face and play with her hair. She wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him closer.

In need of air, Frank kisses down the side of Hazel's neck before claiming her lips again. He licks her bottom lip - asking for entrance. She happily obliges.

Hazels knees weaken and she starts to slide down the wall. In response, Frank pushes his entire body against her. His hands travel down her body to rest on her hips. She breaks away due to lack of air. They both breath heavily for a few moments.

Hazel checks her watch - 12:25pm.

"We have to get back." she says sadly.

Frank pouts adorably, " Fine, But does this mean we are going out?"

"Of course." Hazel responds. With that, she sidesteps away from Frank and slowly walks backward, her eyes on his while she lightly bites her lip. Frank's eyes twinkle. She turns around, fast, and runs back to class.

Frank waits a minute before emerging from behind the Tech Lab. He walks back to his own class while day-dreaming about a certain someone.
