Chapter 3

As the boys were walking Michael realized that this was the first time that he had ever left school. Michael began to get nervous. He thought to himself what if my parents are home, what if a teacher drives by and sees us, what if we get kidnapped. Michael was shaking he whispered to himself "i cant believe I'm doing this for a guy that i don't even know if i love yet"

"What was that Mike?" Benjamin chimed in.

"Nothing" he chuckled " i said if it rains i don't want to get wet"

Benjamin laughed "oh ok but why would it rain its such a beautiful day?"

"Just a statement Ben" Michael laughed

The boys arrived to Michael's house shortly after. Michael noticed no one was home and unlocked the door and allowed Benjamin to enter first. "Woah, dude your house is huge!" Benjamin was amazed.

"Thanks. My father works as a lawyer and my mother is a doctor so i guess things can be a little fancy."

"A little?! Your living room is like the size of my whole house"

Michael laughed "well where do you want to hang? Want to see my room?"

"I would love to show me the way or i might get lost in some secret hallway"

They laughed together and Michael led Benjamin to his room. Michael opened his door to his dark blue walls. His California king sized bed was sitting in the middle of his room and a large window to the left and to the right the short hallway leading to his own bathroom. Michael's room wasn't very messy but it wasn't clean either. His television hung off his wall about 5 feet across from his bed and user his television his dresser stood open an clothes hanging out. Michael tried to clean up a little while Benjamin wandered around.

"Wow your own bathroom"ben said.

"Ehh its just a small bathroom so i don't have to share with my parents and my siblings"

"Wow i would have never thought you were rich. dude you're so much nicer than most rich people, a rich person would have never even talked to me"

"well thanks! go ahead and sit down if you want" Michael patted a spot on his bed and Benjamin sat down.

"Michael, where should i put my shoes?" Benjamin chimed.

"just kick them off and let me call my mom and ask if i can have a friend over after school"

Michael picked up his phone and dialed his mothers number.

"hey mom I'm in study hall can i ask you a question?... can my friend stay over after school?.. Benjamin..i don't know ill ask... hey ben are you staying the night?"

"if you want my parents aren't home for a week so i have nothing better to do." Benjamin answered and smiled

"yeah he's staying over for the weekend... ok... yeah he can wear mine if he doesn't have any....ok...love you have fun at work.. bye" Michael hung up the phone and turned to Benjamin.

"You're staying the weekend since your parents aren't home and you can wear some of my p.j's sound good, Ben?"

Benjamin nodded and said "we're going to have so much fun. we can play video games and talk and stuff"

Michael smiled and sat next to Ben and lay back and Ben closely aside him.
