Using Your Best Friend as Your Lover

Flashback Time?

Dave woke up not long ago and I told him my plan. He smirked abit then ruffled up my hair before trying to slid over to the driver seat. I pulled him back and took my jacket off. I folded up my red and black  letter-man's jacket until it was like a comfy pillow-like substance. After placing Dave's head on top of my creation, I backed out form the back-seat and slid my legs into the driver's side. I think it would be better to take Dave home first then just take his car to my house. He wouldn't get mad, I think. Besides if I go home ,and Rose if still there with Kanaya, I will most likely get a "how was the ride" talk to walk in on them doing something I don't want to talk about. Anyway, I started the car and drove to Dave's first. Once I parked the car, I helped Dave up by putting one oh his arms around me. We got to the door and was about to knock before his older brother came at the door. Dirk Strider was his name and he was a chill guy.

"Bringing my little bro home you are;What did he do?"

"Nothing much. Just being,well, him. He got abit tired and tripped down some stairs."

"I warned you about those stairs,Bro."

Dirk took Dave's other arm and helped me take him upstairs to his room. I practically had to sneak almost because I was trying not to step on his clothes and or records. Gosh, he was a slob. Dirk gave up halfway and just flung Dave over his arm and walked to the bed, not caring what he stepped on. I sneaked back out the room and started to walk back to the car until Dirk called my name.

"Wait up! You don't need to head out just yet. I mean, I know you gotta go ,but look at the time. Stay here for the night. My bed is pretty sweet. Go rest up for abit before leaving. I'll even make you and the kid breakfast later,deal?"

"You had me at breakfast."

I smiled as Dirk led me up to his room. It had puppets on most of the floor and in the corner I thought I saw two robots. Dirk threw me one of his shirts and a pair of shorts Dave had when he was younger. The shorts were abit bigger than I would have liked ,but everyone loves to have pjs that are abit big on them. That I know is a fact. After I changed and Dirk was gone from his room, I crawled into his bed. It was actually really comfy and warm. You could tell it wasn't long ago that he woke up. Why I wonder though? I mean, it's almost 7am. I don't think he works. Who knows; I won't question it right now. I just need sleep...

Okay, I can't sleep. I keep thinking about everything. Why does Sollux and Dave hate each other? Gah! I wish I could just sleep and not have to think of last night. I just keep coming up with these crazy theories like Sollux killed Dave's parents or something insane like that. Oh Sollux. I was able to keep my calm for years ,but Dave had to go and tell Sollux that I liked him. He just had to fight him too. He just had to probably ruin the only bit of a relationship I had with him also! Damnit Dave. I can't be mad though. Without Dave, I probably wouldn't have even talked to Sollux let alone met him. I still remember that day perfectly.

I just moved and bumped into Dave on my way trying to find the school. I wanted to know where it was so on the first day, I wouldn't seem so lost, so different. Dave shrugged his shoulders and just looked at me for awhile. He then smirked and leaned making his signature 'cool guy' pose.

"What's in it for me?"

"I can bake you sweets for an entire month."

"Add in that you will do my Homework for the first week only and we are good."

"Deal."

That started it all. Dave would come to my house to collect his baked good and his homework everyday those weeks to come.. He later came for tutoring until we bonded. Then it was mostly us as friends hanging out and not just some visit to pick up something then leave. One day though, Dave told me that he wanted to go meet this girl at the Library.

"I want you to come with me when I see her. She's pretty cute ,but she might be crazy so I need a reason to bail if that's true."

"So, you care for the girl's feeling kind of ,but also not really? Whatever. I don't have anything else to do."

We drove down to the "Andrewth Hussie" Library and I stood by the fiction section and picked up a book. It was called Problem Sleuth and from what I got, it was about a cop trying to leave his office or something. Pretty cool at first ,but I lost interest after because Dave was making his move.He told me in these easy steps what he'll do. First, he will shine his shades and fix his hair before entering. Next, he will check his  breathe and then go in once it's all good. Then , he will find the girl, pass her twice so, he can see what she is reading. Last, he will move in for the kill. Simple,right? Not really.

He approached this table where a girl with dark brown-ish, red-ish colored hair. It was very long and wavy also. She sat with her legs together and her back straight like some well reformed,mannered girl. She was beautiful really;kind of like that girl who just radiates calm vibes while also sending this intimidating sense of 'I'm-in-my-own-nirvana". Those types of people you try not to talk too because you're scared of being rejected. Dave took a seat next to her and she looked at him. I really had to pee so I snuck out to find the bathroom. Once i got back, Dave and her were talking quietly and smiling abit. They both seemed to be enjoying the company of one another. That is when he walked in.
