Get To Know You - Spoby

Toby

What am I gonna do about Spencer? I don't know how I feel about her and she keeps telling me that it's okay that I don't know why I kissed her, but I can tell she's hurt. I wanna see her again, but I'm finding myself putting it off because I'm afraid that I might kiss her again!

Knock knock

"Hey bro!" Caleb says as he pulls me into a "bro hug".
"Please never say "bro" again..." I laugh.
"What? You say it all the time!" He looks slightly offended.
"That's because it's cool when I say it..." I smirk while throwing him a beer.
"Whatever dude."
I roll my eyes at that thought he just called me bro and dude in space of one minute.

"So what you doing about this Spencer chic?" He chuckles as he plants himself down on the sofa next to me, picking up the xbox remote control.
"Nothing." I sigh.
"Really Toby?" He looks at me with a serious face.
"What Caleb?" I stare back at him.
"I'm just saying....I haven't even saw you both together and I can already feel some sort of chemistry." He gives me a half smile which I look away from.
"It's not that easy Caleb."
"Toby, tell her how you feel! Stop pretending that kiss didn't mean anything to you. I know you and you don't kiss girls for no reason." He gives me a light punch to the arm. "Come on man just ask her out!
I stare at him. Millions of thoughts are going through my mind when he says something that snaps me out of my trans.
"If you don't, I'll take her." He says as he sips his beer.
"What!? Take her where!" I jump up.
"I don't know....anywhere I feel like. Then I'll maybe confess my love to her!" He looks  up at me.
I'm completely in shock right now that I can't even control my next movements. I grab his collar and pull him up then I punch him and push him to floor when he shouts for me to stop. I take a few steps away from him as we wobbles up.
"What the fuck dude!? Can you not take a joke? Who the fuck do you think I am? I wasn't obviously gonna take her some where and tell her I love her, oh my god!!" He shouts holding his bloody mouth.

I feel stupid now. I didn't even mean to do that. I just don't even want to think of Spencer with another guy. I sit down and put my face in my hands. I feel Caleb put his hand on my shoulder. I look up to him. Shit, I really did bust his lip good!
"Caleb... I-I...." I try to get out words as he shakes his head.
"It's fine buddy....." he starts to smile. " you passed my test."
What is he talking about? I give him a confused look as he continues.
"I tried to make you jealous, you wouldn't want to see her with anyone else....but you."

CALEB IS A GENIUS WTH?!

I laugh and nod as I get him a cloth and a ice pack for his lip and he rambles about how great he is.

"But really....if you don't take her can you slip me her digits?"
"Don't make me punch you again Caleb..."
