IT NEVER HAPPENED

EMOTIONS FLY HIGH

Freddie and Cook have had this relationship since they were little; they've always competed - who could run the fastest, who was best at football - and now they're competing for this girl or rather were before
When Freddie headbutts Cook, Cook half admits that he deserves it so instead of going mad and hitting him back he grabs him and kisses him, to say: 'You're a prick for hitting me... but I deserved it, and I still love you', It's bloody simple, Karen ruined the shed, their shed, so he ruined her competition, No big deal But apparently it was, because Freddie is pissed off, and Cook can't keep from staring at his friend as he paces back and forth, everything about him screaming 'fight', That's his Freddie, right there, No one gets to see that side of Freds-the-funsponge but him, no one has this affect on him but Cook and it's just…right, You prick…you selfish fucking prick!" Freddie yells, pacing back and forth, muscles tightening with each agitated step, He has to keep moving, has to somehow rid himself of the storm that's raging on the inside, Karen's crying and Freddie's livid beyond belief and Cook, Cook isn't taking his eyes off him, staring at him like what ya gonna do and it hits him somewhere dark and fiery inside his chest, He moves before he knows it, grabbing a hold of Cook's shirt and pulling him close, raising his fist as he does, He wants to punch the smug grin of Cook's face, wants to punish him Freddie Simply wants, but with cook its always been want take have always while Freddie has held back, freddie gets tired of living in the shadow of the increasingly reckless cook Although Freddie  reveals his true feelings for Effy, which she reciprocates, she goes back to Cook  because she's afraid to love anyone and cook wants her he takes her he has her and now Freddie wants her Freddie wants something too, There's a rush of fresh adrenaline through Cook's bloodstream as Freddie raises his clenched fist, pulls him close, The collar of his t-shirt is digging into his neck and he has to stand on his fucking tip-toes not to allow Freddie to tower over him, meeting his angry stare head on Reality comes crashing down around him; Freddie is going to kick his ass, Heat pools at the pit of his stomach, mingling with a sliver of trepidation, Something's changing, he can feel it in the fucking air around them, In that second he wants to run, Run and never look back, but then he changes his mind, "Fucking do it then, you pussy!" Cook yells to Freddie The headbutt sends flares of pain through his skull, Finding himself on the floor, Cook shakes his head to clear off the fog, Freddie fights dirty and it fits because everything Cook does could be considered dirty, Inappropriate, Over the top The fighter in him reacts on pure instinct, getting to his feet in one smooth move despite of the lagers he's downed earlier at the pub, Freddie's eyes widen as Cook grabs a hold of his collar, and the gulp of breath is audible
They're so close, their breaths are mingling and Cook smells of lager and cigarettes and something else, They stumble, and his hand rests briefly on Cook's back before he pulls it away as if he's been burned, Still struggling for breath, Freddie waits for the inevitable punch with Determination When Cook suddenly grabs his face and kisses him, Freddie's momentarily frozen, The kiss is rough; lips pressed together so tightly it hurts and Freddie panics, The punch throws Cook to the floor for a second time, this time coughing and curling around his midsection as he struggles to pull air back into his lungs, I really fucking love you, you bastard cook replied Full of emotion, Freddie shuts his eyes tears forming,  Cook pauses briefly before he walks out the door, pulls a hand through his hair as he looks back and their eyes meet, Freddie can't speak; his tongue feeling like an alien thing too big for his mouth, But when Cook nods at him tersely the question, 'we cool, mate?',  is evident in his eyes, Freddie finds himself returning the gesture , There good again just like they always are cook wants he takes , he wanted to Have Freddie know he ment bussines he took control and in his own way he showed him with love that he is full of fight worth fighting for,  anyone else would think they were gay, but its deeper than love on the surface cook needs Freddie in his life he respects him loves him like blood and bone but he will always be Alpha male that's how cook is, At the house party later that day, JJ sighed in relief as the door shut behind him, drowning out the noises of the party, Why did he let Cook take him to these parties? He hated them, There was so many people around and so much noise, The group all seperated as soon as they got in the door, Katie would try to find a cute guy, Pandora is mopey because Thomas was dancing  with girls on the dance floor they recently broke up he cheated on her and she Is trying to rack up the courage to talk up JJ, Cook went to find a girl, Emily and Naomi found a dark corner and Freddie drifted off after Effy, Being alone sucked, He moved to sit on the bed in the middle of the room, JJ sighed to himself, He always ended up like this, Either alone in a bedroom or in a corner, locked on, until Freddie or Emily came to get him, He hated this, He hated being alone, but all the others had relationships, Or sex, minus Pandora but he didn't know this yet as Thomas didn't tell him , JJ had neither, He was too shy for either, God, he couldn't even have sex with that protitute that time, And now Cook seemed to have forgotten about him, Cook was Bored and sad and was often emo while he had sex now,  He was still Cook, just not as...lively, JJ flinched as a body slammed off the door,  He hated these parties,  It was all sex, drugs and alcohol,  JJ just didn't care about those things, sex he did but drugs and Alcohol no, He sighed and collapsed onto the bed in the room, He closed his eyes, Sure, he wouldn't get any rest, but maybe he could clear his head, JJ sat upright as the door to the room opened  He smiled as Freddie walked into the room
Hey, need to get away from Effy, She's getting very Dark and moody and is demanding and its stressful, Cook is getting mopey, he still loves her, he replied, Freddie, do you ever regret getting with Effy?" JJ asked him, and he looked at him
Freddie thought about this and pondered it truly, "Yes and no,  she is very hard core but I know she is fragile, Its hard because I know she's still having sex with Cook, its Just a mess, Look, JJ, He's still my best friend  Always will be, Don't worry, kay?" He replied softly calming him down, JJ nodded ok good were the musketers and we need to remain best friends and Freddie replied No matter what happens we will be JJ let's leave this party we don't need to be here and I know you don't like these house partys and right now Effy needs her space and JJ replied ok and they left the room just as they were leaving Pandora replied Hey let me come with and  Freddie saw Thomas grinding on a girl and JJ replied why is your boyfriend doing that with a girl and she replied were not together he cheated on me and JJ replied ok come on and they left, but Freddie punched Thomas first as Cook made the rounds and not gotten laid most of the girls minus the ones he came with were goth or prepy stuck up bitches, and Effy was way to fucked up to be having sex she had a whole gram of coke, and took a ecstasy tab, she was Drunk and Was about to pass out cold, Emily and Naomi have decided to take up as watchman and Cook was getting urked by this so he found Katie who was alone Thomas left out of humiliation and he replied Katikins want to Rough and Tumble, she pondered it for 5 whole minutes but that was the alcohol talking and she decided hell why not Freddie was the one she lost to Effy and Cook lost Effy to him for a while and she knows he still wants her and she still wants Freddie so she could let it slide, She replied fine but this will never turn into anything you got it!!! Cook laughed of course not like were pals at best and besides I love Effy and he realized that was harsh and Katie suprised him, yeah and I love Freddie so were both as you would say thirsty and cook nodded and they went to her place because Emily was going to Naomi's for the night so she didn't have to share there shared room and they ripped each other's clothes off and she let him take her for one wild ride of pleasure and emotions. After when they woke up the next day Cook expected for Katie to freak out and kick him out disgusted and blamed the alcohol for her very wrong mistake and cut him off and he would not even be mad but she wakes up and replied cook and he looks at her and replied getting up off the bed yeah yeah fuck off and all that I got it , she laughed no please wait he stopped in his tracks, she replied look I know I'm a bitch and I will never admit it later to you if you say any of this outloud so you know but you suprised me when you started to show that you were actually a human being and not just some wanker who twist balls and gob off about how easy girls are like a rude fuckboy and I apologize for treating you like anything else,  I'm not used to that every other boy I had sex with or even dated or liked minus you and Freddie have treated me like I wasn't even important or that I was just a piece of meat they say that bitches are good so I got used to being that bitch, and cook replied sincerely Katie you are not a bitch I never saw you as one, she replied no? No you love your sister and that right there Katie that's respect, he replied I'm sorry that Freddie hurt you, but Effy she has this way everything about her draws us in she is not even all that normal she is beautiful and I know her and I truly feel her pain and I will never be able to unlove her I will carry the love I have for her until the day I die and she Loves freddie and he is one lucky son of a bitch, and you deserve to have love and so do I, she replied Tony stonem was Exactly the same as she is the Stonems are remarkable and everyone touched by them or are in there circle of friends or even around there circle of friends feels the same way as you and Freddie do and everyone else like me are collateral damage like sidney Jenkins Tony's bestfriend who loved Michelle his girlfriend and Probably was better for her but instead he was burned in the end by the girl he fell in love with after Michelle and cassie the one who couldn't ever be Michelle and sid actually tried for her opened his eyes and woke up, but cassie was damaged too, What do the Stonems have that the rest of us dont and why do we burn for them cook??  And Cook replied after some real thinking he closed his eyes and opened them again,  I really honestly don't know it's like a curse for them and us and Katie replied do you honestly think that Effy loves him and hurts too because I dont, honestly I think she loves the control and lives for the attention like Tony did at least the Tony who was before his accident, and cook replied looking in her eyes sadly as Katie was sad too its because of Tony's accident that I know she feels hurt and can love , Honestly before the accident I would admit that she probably couldn't care less like Tony but they both changed as people Effy was there she witnessed the whole accident she held him he was practically dying in her arms blood poured out from his ears nose mouth and eyes and had a Anyrysm yet he turned out ok but has a permanent TBI he had to learn how to do everything all over again she took care of him he still is slow at least to some extent Katie teared up I talked about the accident so vainly that first day last year like it was nothing when we met God no wonder she was so cold to me and probably still is what I said probably hit her hard and cook replied there only humans like us there beautiful human beings and in alot of ways only truly know what love is through each other there parents are fucked up like mine are so I know if anything else if she doesn't love Freddie she sure as hell wants to or is trying to love him like he loves her, and Katie hugged him thank you for telling  me this I need to make it right with her, and he replied Katie I hope you find your Freddie and she replied I hope you find your Effy I envy Emily for already having her true love and cook replied me too they got dressed and before he left he replied Effy wont hate you just talk to her then cook left the way he came through her window leaving Katie emotional but happy because she gained a true friendship and a understanding which she will have forever.
