Is This Real Life? ~ Highschool AU

Chapter Six

Patrick's POV

---------Next morning---------

I woke up to my phone ringing, I reached over to my bedside table and grabbed it, Pete was calling me.

"Hello?" I answer tiredly.

"Hey princess. Good morning. Did I wake you up? You sound tired."

"Good morning, and yeah you did, but that's fine. I had to get up soon anyway."

"Oh okay, so you coming to school today?"

"Yeah Pete, of course I am."

"Okay. Hey do you live anywhere near the park on pine street?"

"Um yeah, I kinda do, why?"

"Do you want to meet up there before school?"

"Uh, sure."

"meet me there at like, 7:30, okay?"

"I can be there by 7:45?"

"Okay that works, see you then princess."

"Okay, bye Petey"

We hung up the call and I looked at the time. 6:00am, I have around an hour and half to get ready.

I walked over to my closet and pulled out a long sleeve cardigan among many, and a pair of black skinny jeans.

I can't wait to see Pete. I got changed and hurried downstairs, my parents aren't home. they must have already left for work.

I make a bowl of cornflakes. I eat the cereal in like 50 seconds, then decided to watch some television until I had to go.

---------7:20---------

I slipped on my coat and shoes, and walked out the door. I walk for about 20 minutes until I can see the park. 5 more minutes until Pete wants me there. I get to the park at 7:41 and I don't see Pete, so I decide to sit on a bench and wait.

It's now 7:47 and Pete's still not here, what if he hates me? or he decided not to come? ugh shut up Patrick, he's two minutes late-. My thoughts were interrupted when Pete jumped out in front of me.

"HOLY SMOKES PETE YOU NEED TO STOP DOING THAT!!! I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WOULDN'T DO IT AGAIN!!!!!" I said jumping off the bench and landing on the ground.

"Awe I'm sorry princess, I thought it would be funny," He said pouting and grabbing my hand to pull me off the ground.

"Yeah well it wasn't," I tell him wiping the dirt off of my pants.

"Awe okay, I'm sorry 'Trick. Let's sit down," He says pulling me on the bench.

"Did I have a choice in sitting down?"

"Nope, anyway I have a question."

"Okay what's up?" I say gulping, what if he want's to stop being my friend? I know I just met him but like h-

"Are you a hamburger? Cause I'll be the meat between your buns," He's says winking at me.

Oh my gosh I was all worked up about th- wait what?

"What the heck? Jesus Pete you really are a flirt, but sadly I'm not a hamburger. Oh, but if I was I probably wouldn't be alive right now, because I'd probably end up eating myself," I say, rambling.

"I was joking," obviously, "but, if you were a hamburger I'd eat you too, hell, I'd eat you either way," he says laughing and winking at me.

"Pete, I swear to god."

"Oh hey 'Trick, when I walk to school I normally pick Brendon and Ryan up on the way, is that cool? It's only an extra two minutes, and it's only five minutes from the park."

"Yeah of course, that's cool."

"Alright, well then we should probably head off now."

"Yeah, we should, let's go."

The five minute walk to Brendon's was silent for the most part, with the occasional small talk, but it was the sort of silent that's nice and peaceful. Normally when I'm walking with someone and not talking it's really awkward, but it's just not with Pete for some reason.

That silence soon ended though, we eventually arrived at Brendon's, and when we did, I saw something I don't think I was supposed to? well, Brendon and Ryan were kissing. I guess that solves the question of if Brendon and Mikey were together.

I accidentally stepped on a stupid twig, which caused them both to break their kiss and look at Pete and I, Ryan wide eyed and looking like he was gonna puke, he probably thinks I'm going to thinks he's weird or something, and Brendon just looking like he normally does, not even caring that I just saw him and Ryan kissing, and I don't know why he would, he knows I'm not homophobic. Heck, why would I be? I am so gay, of course, he doesn't know that, but.
