Abnormal life

12. Ajax

I grab my food from the lunch line and I go over to sit with Branden at our table. I've been with Zachariah every single day this week and we never get tired of each other. And now I'm bored at school without him. "Has Bryce ever spoken to you after your guys date?" I asked him before talking a bite of my burger.

"Yeah we have, but today he's been real distant and dry the few times I've spoken to him." He said starting to get sad.

"It's just one date, you'll be alright." I said trying to boost his confidence. "Yeah. You're right." He said forcing a smile.

I smiled and got up to throw my garbage away. As I'm walking towards the garbage, all the lights in the lunchroom shut off. I automatically get into defense mode as I wait for anything coming at me. The lights turn back on and Bryce is standing in front of Brandon with roses, balloons, and a large pizza that said, "Prom?" Spelled out in pepperonis.

Brandon looked like he was on the brink of tears. I swear he's so dramatic. "Yes." He said bursting out into a smile and jumping into Bryce's arms, hugging him, which Bryce quickly returned.

Although Zachariah and I were already planning on going, I kind of wanted a surprise like this, but that's why you get when you're dating someone out of high school right? Brandon came over to me jumping up and down.

"I told you it was nothing bad." I said returning the hug he gave me.

I took some of Brandon's gifts and brought them to our 7th period; gym. We set his stuff in one of the bigger lockers and put a lock on it. I started to change into my gym clothes and I looked around to a couple of boys looking at me. They noticed me looking and quickly turned back. I mugged them and hurried up and put on the rest of the uniform on and headed out to the gym.

"Alright class we're gonna have a free day today, the choices are basketball, volleyball, soccer, or walk around the gym. You've got to be moving though." He said taking attendance.

After he was finished, I went over to the bag to grab a basketball. "Hold on bro, if you not runnin' a game then grab something else." He said stopping me. I was about say something back, but then I decided I should just school these kids one time. "Alright." I said grabbing the ball and tossing it to him. "Brandon let's run a game." I said waving him over. "You know I don't play like that no more." He said smirking. Little do these boys know that he's the best one in this school. "Come on just one game." I said holding the ball out. "Fine." He said sighing and grabbing the ball. "We get ball first." I said to the guy and his team mate and he nodded. He checked the ball fo me and I started to dribble.

Immediately, Brandon got into his zone and faked out the guy and went into another direction, cutting into the hoop. I bounced passed the ball to him and he grabbed it, bouncing it once, and putting it up. It hit the backboard and going him. " one to zip." I said clapping. The other team were in shock because they didn't see Brandon as the the masculine type of person, but they though wrong. We got the ball again, but this time Brandon was passing it in.

I cut into the hoop, but then I ran out to the 3-point line to do one of my specialities; shooting 3s. As soon as I made it to the line, Brandon passed me the ball. I took a deep breath and was about to shoot, until the lights shut off. The lights turned back on and there comes Zach with balloons, flowers, poster, and a big ass teddy bear. I smiled widely. "Will you go to prom with me?" He said smiling. "Yes." I said hugging him and pecking him on he lips. "Take our picture B." Zach said to Brandon, handing him his phone. I wrapped my arms around his waist and put my head on his shoulder while he wrapped his left around my shoulder. We her the shutter sound, letting us know that he took the picture and we separated.

"How'd you do all of this?" I said smiling. And grabbing his hand.

"Ohhh, I bribed the office into letting me surprise you. I've been planning this for weeks." He said kissing me on the lips.

"Haha okay, well...can you take all this stuff back in your car, I'm not gonna carry this all day." I said looking at all the stuff. "Of course, I'll see you later" He said walking up to me and kissing me long and hard, causing me to stiffen.

"Ummmm Zach, the way these shorts are set up everyone's gonna see what I'm packing." I said. "Sorry." He pulling away and licking his lips. The way he just licked him is just....... "Bye." He said grabbing all the stuff and walking away. The end of school day finally came and Brandon and I got in my car. "I'm so exited for tonight." He said texting away on his phone. "Me too." I said genuinely. "We'll pick you and Bryce up at 8." I said unlocking the door.l He said 'Alright' and went into his house.

I finally arrived at my house and I went straight to my mom's room. "Zach asked me to prom." I said bursting into her room and jumping onto her bed. She, for some reason, kicked me off the bed. I landed on my hands flipped back over.

"What was that for?" I said laughing and gently sitting on her bed.

"Because you almost broke my damn bed last time." She said glaring at me.

"Haha, anyway, Zach asked me to prom." I said smiling.

"I thought he already asked you." She asked going getting up to put make up on.

"He did, but I guess he wanted to do a surprise also...where are you going?" I said once I noticed her pulling out dresses. "Somewhere grown. I'm leaving after you go to the dance though." She said smirking "Okay, well imma go to like a nap before I have to get ready." I said walking out. I got in my bed and laid down. As soon as I was about to fall asleep, my phone started ringing. Is was Zach FaceTiming me. I answered it and set it up to my face. "What's up baby." Zach said in his deep voice, causing me to smile. "Nothing about to take a nap." I said yawning. "Aww can I take a nap with you." He said yawning also. "On the phone." I asked. "Yeah." He said propping his phone on the night stand. "Alright." I said doing the same and slowing dozing off.
