The school bell rings and every single teenager runs out throwing their papers in the air like this is High school Musical. They hurry down the stairs and run down the corridors quickly heading out the big brown double doors that leads to the front of the school, straight to their cars. Teens blast their music and drive away quickly down the road, girls rip off their shirts or tang tops flashing their bras and boobs as their friends drive quickly down the road with them yelling, "Bye Losers!" With a giggle and laugh to go along with it.

Benny and I walk down the stairs like normal people pushing aside piles of papers so we don't trip over them. "Awe!-" Benny whines. "What?" I ask looking up at him. "All the hot babes are gone. Who am I gonna hang out with this summer?" I frown, sucking my teeth crossing my arms. "Um, m-" but he cuts me off. "Oo, there's a few more chicks left over there." He says quickly heading over to the two girls against their cars in tang tops and short shorts. I stand behind him and watch this failure un fold. Benny brushes his hair back with his hand, and crosses his arms all "cool like" in front of them. He smiles, "Hey ladies. How about you hang out me this summer. Get a piece of the Benny-Moan Master." He says pointing his thumbs at hisself. The girls snicker, "Ha, as if loser."
And she throws water onto his face, getting into her car, and drives away throwing the cup at his chest.

I approach him, arms crossed. His eyes closed from the water, he spits and wipes his eyes. "How dare they disrespect the Benny Master. They could've had it all." He says gesturing to his body. Benny, Benny Dean was fit like most guys. He has a very toned body, like a running body, a killer jawline (technically his whole body is very toned) that only nerd girls or "freaks" (not party girl freaks) as in "whoa that girl is weird" freak, tend to like his body. His hair is light brown brought back with layers of waves and bright turquoise eyes to match, with a blinding white flash of straight white teeth. Yet, no "hot babe" or "hot chicks" as Benny calls them, fall for it.

"I bet you said if they wanted a piece of the Benny-Moan Master? Didn't you?" I ask nudging his arms. He wipes his eyes again. "Um, DUH I said that. No one can resist this body." He says. "I'm pretty sure that they can Benny. They didn't even acknowledge you." I say as we start to walk. "Um, yeah they did-" "Yeah, throwing water on your face definitely meant they acknowledged you." I say smiling. He frowns. "Sorry, but you know I'm right." I hand him a tissue to wipe his face. "No girl like them are going to go for you. Not even with a body like that. Your a NERD Benny, except the fact. Maybe if you weren't a nerd, or geek, they would fall right into your strong arms." I tease.
"You noticed I have strong arms?" He teases looking down at me. "Wha-? No! Not like that way Benny. Just be glad you at least have a friend, best friend! That's a girl like me, who can tell you these things. Find a girl that doesn't care if your a nerd or geek. That will kiss you in the halls and not care that others are saying, "ew she's kissing a nerd" but at least she'll get to have that "amazing" body you have." "You think I have an amazing body?" He says rising his eye brow.

I don't even look at him. I shrug, "If that's what you call a body, then..." I size him, "Good luck trying to get a girl buddy." I joke and he nudges my arms. We walk down the side walk only one more block away from my house. He and I have known each other since second grade, high school is over, well, until summer starts then ends and we go back to school into 12th grade. Benny and I are both 18. My parents think I shouldn't have a guy friend because my "hormones" will act up and make me start falling for him. Mom teases and says, "With that silly personality he has, he's the perfect best friend for you. But, with that body and charm, he's the perfect boyfriend. And you don't know how he's going to react when he sees you vulnerable and you two want to take advantage of each other."

That doesn't make me nervous at all. I don't ever see myself like that with him, I mean, he's my best friend, we would never ruin our relationship like that. Yes Benny is very good looking but he is a nerd. It's like he got bit by a vampire, and turned all hot, but is still a nerd. Oh god I just geeked out, gross. "Blaire?" He says my name. "Blaire?" He says again. "Mhmm, yeah?" I say absent. "Are we going to hang out at least once this summer. Or twice? Or every-single day because we barley even hung out last summer and I surfed at the beach almost everyday by myself." He complains.
