(Charlie)

It was an early Monday morning. It was a few weeks before the race to study for final exams would began, and I wanted to enjoy my weeks before heck started. I overally enjoyed school, except for exam weeks. They seriously stressed me out. I got dressed, and drove to school. I waited in the Cafeteria for the bell to ring signaling first period. Suddenly, my best friend Alexander ran over. He was the exact opposite of me. He was popular, and cool. Girls just melted when they saw him, and he didnt seem to care. "Hey! Dude! There's a party this friday at Blaires HUGE house! Everyones gonna be there, and im taking you!"
"Wont I need an invite..?" I asked, looking down. No one would ever give me an invite willingly.
"Yeah, but whose gonna notice you there?"
"Uh, everyone." I said sassily. I had the brightest, reddest hair in this whole school. It was floppy, not the usual curly. I could curl it, but I look like every nerd out there.
"Come on! Get on your big motherfucking boy pants and take a risk!"
My face lit up when he cussed so loudly. I hated cussing, It made the air around me feel... Dirty. And tainted. Obviously, I was a virgin to naughty words. Really im a virgin to everything.
"F..fine. B..but dont say that so loud, Alex.."
"You've got to be shitting me, Charlie. You're seventeen years old, and you have never ever cussed? I mean on purpose. I still remember that time you asked me what a dick was." He laughed, loudly.
"S..shut up! I didnt know what it was! And you didn't have to bring it up!" I blushed. I got flustered easily.
"I bet you looooove dicks since I showed that gay guy that sent me nudes."
"ALEX!" I snapped and growled at him. "IM NOT GAY! IM STRAIGHT! JUST BECAUSE I DIDNT KNOW WHAT A .... BAD WORD WAS REFERRING TO DOESNT MEAN I STARE AT THEM DAY AND NIGHT!"
Everyone was staring at us now. I didnt mean to yell, but it was in my nature to become easily enraged.
"Chill,Charlie. Im just joking.. Calm Down, love." He said, very softly and tucking my hair behind my ear. He was very considerate to me, even when he should yell at me. He always called me love. He knew it calmed me down more than anything. "O..okay.." I whispered as the bell for first period rang. Alex waved me off, with a charming smile. I nearly melted.

I swear im not gay.
