The Bad Boy and His Lessons

The Reinvention

I lay in my bed scrolling through my phone thinking about how I could show people that I am not always a good boy. Then I had an idea that could prove that I had a darker side. I dialed Bryan's number and waited for him to answer. As soon as I was about to hang up Bryan answered. He said in a sleepy voice "This better be good Scott." I sighed with relief and said, "I never ask you for anything but this time I need your geeky help." After listening to complete silence he agreed. I smiled and said, "I will be there in twenty." Before he could say anything I hung up. I drove straight to his house and ran up to the porch. I knocked on the door. After waiting for a few minutes I could hear the locks clicking. Bryan opened the door and said "Come in and explain why you called at two in the morning."

We sat in the basement after getting a few beers. I looked around at the unique scenery and said "I want a reinvention to be a bad boy." Bryan laughed as if I told some hilarious joke. I stood up and said with fustration "Think about it okay? I have been called the "good boy" for years. I want that to change okay?" Bryan nodded and stood up. I nodded and chugged my beer as Bryan walked up to me. He put his hands on my shoulders and said "Let's do this." I smiled as relief and happiness overflowed my body. We drank until we passed out. When I woke up I checked the clock. The clock read 1:35PM I sighed. I had a migraine from getting drunk. When I looked up Bryan handed me so Asprin as he said "It is called a hangover." I sighed and took the Asprin as I laid back down.

We left his house and got into his truck. We drove to the mall and went shopping. I ended up getting a whole new closet of clothes. We got back into his truck after we put the bags in the back. Bryan looked at me as he was driving and said "The next stop is Amelia's house." I looked at Bryan with confusion. I thought to myself "How could she help reinvent me?" We drove in silence until we pulled up into her driveway. We knocked on her front door and waited for her to answer. As I turned around to leave she opened the door and grabbed my arm. I turned back around as she said "No you are not backing out now." She pulled me inside as Bryan followed behind me. I asked Bryan "Why does she have to be involved?" Amelia laughs as Bryan answers "She is one of the bad girls that is willing to help this idea of yours." I sighed and nodded as she pulled me into her bedroom.

I turned around as I was heading toward the door to leave she said "Before you go didn't you want a reinvention or was Bryan lying when he called me?" I turned around and walked up to her and kissed her soft gentle lips. She pulled away and said "You really know what you are doing." I nodded and before I could say anything she kissed me and started taking my shirt off. We were undressing and kissing. After a little bit of having sex we hear a knock on the door. We jump and look at each other. Bryan says "It is me. Can I come in?" I sighed as Amelia said "Sure." The door opened as Bryan walked in. He looks at Amelia and I as he says "Well step number two is complete." I sighed and said "Anything else?" Bryan shook his head.

Amelia said "Well actually there are a few steps left." Bryan and I look at each other in confusion. We both knew she has an idea stirred up in that little head of hers. Bryan sat on the bed and said "What are they or is this going to be one of your scary surprises?" I was getting nervous as I was listening to their conversation. Amelia said with a grin "Highlights is what he needs and he needs a little extra goods to fall on when he needs it." I knew what she meant by that. I shook my head as I turned to look at Bryan. Bryan sighed and said "I guess that could help." She smiled with excitement and said "Yay!" I stood up from the bed and walked out of the room and ran down the stairs. Bryan and Amelia chased after me but I wouldn't stop. Bryan yelled "Scott Romel stop running." I said with fustration "I am going for a run." I knew they stopped running but I didn't. I ran for two miles then I stopped and sat down on the gravel. 

My phone was ringing as my dad, Brock Romel, was calling me. I answered and said "What is it dad?" He sighed and I could tell he has had a bad day. Brock sighed again and said "You want to change your image? Fine you can do that. Come home and meet me in my office." My father is in the mafia which makes him dangerous. I said calmly "Okay dad I will be there in thirty." He hung up as I stood up and started running back to Amelia's. Finally I was running up her drive way towards Bryan. I yelled "We have to take me home. My father wants me in his office." Bryan got into his truck and waited for me to get my ass into his truck. We drove to my house which felt like forever. The ride was in complete silence because there was nothing to say. Bryan just kept glancing at me then back at the road. He did that the entire car ride to my house. I could tell he had something to say but he was refusing to say it.
