Kenny looked up from the magazine that he was reading. He paused.

"Who is it?" he called out, as he got up to answer the door.

"It's Kyle!"

Kenny then picked up his pace. He opened the door, and raised an eyebrow.

Kyle was holding two items in his hands. Kyle noticed Kenny's confused gaze at the two items, and gave the two for Kenny to study. He began speaking,

"Hey, so, I know that this is last second, but I was wondering if you'd be interested in accompanying me to New Jersey. I have to see family members, and I need someone to come with. My family decided not to come because Ike is sick at home with the flu, and my dad has an important client to defend in court."

Kenny studied the two items. They were plane tickets.

Kyle continued, "the plane ride is three hours, I think. It takes off tomorrow at 5 am. Do you think you can make it?"

Kenny paused, leaving Kyle in suspense. He then nods with a slight smile.

"Sure, what's there to loose?"

"Hell yeah! Thanks, Kenny!" Kyle beamed, as Kenny gave him the two tickets.

"I can pick you up around 3:40 am, see you then!"

Kenny watched as Kyle began to head back to home. As soon as Kyle vanished from slight, Kenny closed the door, feeling his heart pound out of his chest.

The thing is, Kenny has had a crush on Kyle since they were eleven. Kenny is eighteen now, and the crush only seemed to have gotten worse. He bit his lip. Wait, will they be sharing a hotel room? Will they be together the entire trip? Kenny quickly shakes his head. He needs to start packing. He'll ask questions on the car ride to the airport. He falls onto his bed, sighing quietly. Kenny was on cloud nine. It'll be just him, and Kyle. What could possibly go wrong? Right? Everything will be okay, right?
