In a flash

or just friends?

Benji pov:

me and jeyjey were watching a show on Netflix and i was actually enjoying it, sense jeyjey had suggested it. he was wearing a short sleeved shirt and it was a pretty cold day. " hey jeyjey take my sweat shirt, it feels pretty cold out". " no its ok Benji im good"." no i insist, its cold and you only have a short sleeve on" . " well ok I guess I could use it". he took the sweat shirt after I had slipped it off of me. he tried to put it on and him seeing nothing but pitch black, he put his head through the arm hole and got stuck. I helped him get it out and when he managed to get his head through the right hole he was blushing. he smiled and the we both Laughed. " Benji!! over here!" we both looked over and my mom had pulled up to us. we both got in the back and i said, " mom is it ok if we take jeyjey?"." yes but gosh, way to introduce someone". i laughed " oh sorry, mom this is Jorge, jeyjey this is my mom". they shook hands and and then we both sarted to giggle like little 10 year olds.

benjis mom seemed really nice, I had never seen her before like in one of benjis TikToks or youtube vids. " so Jorge, how far away do you live from this mall?" she asked," oh.. um I think maybe like 30 minutes away". " oh so have you ever been to this mall before?" she asked seeming interested in this conversation. " oh no, I never really been to one specific, just random ones that we pass by on the way home from a trip." I said but then I felt Benji getting close to me and then whispering" sorry my mom always asks way to many questions when she meets new people, its so annoying". " well Benji what great whispering skills you have". " just to annoy you with red riding hood". we all laughed. benji and his mom have such a funny relationship. she seemed very out going, that's probably where Benji got it from. " oh benji, do know the way home from here?" she had interrupted sounding a little lost. she had pulled over into one of the empty parking spaces, and turned around to look at us with a " I don't know where I am" look on her face. " my phone died on the way here, but luckily I was close enough to see where I was". I saw Benji press the power button on his phone but the screen remained black. I quickly said," I can search up your address for you Mrs. Krol!". " oh really? thank you sweetie!". Benji typed his address into my phone and connected it to the car. I looked at the address and it turned out that we had lived in the same neighbor hood! the street name seemed really familiar, oh it was two streets in front of mine! i whispered to Benji," oh my gosh Benji, you live really close to me!" " really?!? that's so cool! if we live so close than that means we probably will be going to the same school!". i had forgotten that we were on Christmas break and that we so i haven't seem him there before. we both got really excited and i could tell that benjis mood changed a lot more, from him knowing that we could be able to see each other a lot. we were about 5 mina away from the area when Benjis mom said," hey Jorge you can disconnect your phone now. oh dang it! we totally forgot to bring you home". " mom its ok, jeyjey lives close to us we can just walk over there". i felt an emotion of excitement and the sadness. i was so excited that i could live near Benji, but i had to go home. as we drove closer and closer all i could see is my childhood. here and there, and now Benji was where it was. the car pulled into a driveway with one of the most beautiful houses in our neighbor hood. my old friend cara used to live there so would basically know the whole way around the house already. " i just forgot that yall were on a school break, so i don't care what happens". Benji and i looked at eachother with smile.

Benji pov:

I was so happy that jeyjey lived so close to me. maybe we actually could be something, or.... just friends. but what ever we were, I would be happy.

we all walked inside, jeyjey looking around in shock, his eyes got really big," woah, your house is really pretty, how long have yall lived in here?". " oh probably like 5 days, so everything is pretty much organized". I walk jeyjey over to my room, I looked back at him and his cheeks were turning pink. I smiled at him and he smiled back at me and then he looked at the floor, we continued to walk to my room. we finally got to my room after walking up 17 stairs, but it actually felt like a billion. I opened the door and we walked in. I showed him all of my stuff as he picked little things up and smiled. we were about to sit down on my bed and I realized I had not made it this morning. I quickly stretched two of the corners out leaving other other two that were on the other side. " oh I can help you Benji". "oh thank you jeyjey" I said smiling. one of the pillows fell off coming down with my note book that I kept birthday cards in.

jeyjey pov:

i was exploring through benjis room, he had so much cool nicknacks, it was probably from when he went traveling and when he moved. i looked over at him and he looked a little embarrassed. he started to make his bed, so i offered to help. he did one side and i did the other. i unfolded one the top corner and i was about to do the bottom. i saw that Benji had knelt down to pick up something as i was finishing the bed. i lifted up the blanket sense there was a bump under it, and i say a note book that was lying there. i picked it up and face it around to see what it was for. i turned around so that Benji didn't see. the cover said "do not read if not Benji" in red marker, i guess he wanted to seem like actually meant it. i mean it didn't say i couldn't open and look at what was inside of it. i opened it quickly but not to loud to where Benji could here the pages. i flipped through a few pages just to get a look at the words but the i saw my name, jeyjey. i was curios why my name why written down. so i read, "jeyjey is ," - i got interrupted when i felt Benjis hand grab my arm. " what are you doing?" he snatched the book out of my hands. " what the heck jeyjey!!! it says dont read it!"." oh sorry i was just lookin at it."

Benji pov:

i finished picking up all of the cards that fell out of the notebook and but it on top of my desk. i got up and i saw jeyjey just standing there with his head slightly down. i ran over to him to see that he was reading my notebook of secrets. a whole world of questions came to me. why did he read that? what did he read? how much did he read? i stopped myself from questions and ripped it out of his hands. i could see his face was all pink and he had a smirk on his face. "ugh jeyjey" i said in an annoyed tone. " why was my name in there? what did it say?" i could feel my self start to get hot and start to blush. " whatever it was nothing!". oh come on Benji, i could see words in there i am sure that wasn't just ' nothing' i mean my name was in it". " jeyjey its nothing". " ugh fine".

we sat on the bed as jeyjey showed me some of his private tiktoks, jeez he was like a whole different person with blonde. tbh he looks a lot better with black hair. but anyways as he was showing me his tiktoks, I accidentaly started to dose off. but not just staring at anything random, at him. all I could ese was preciousness. he was so cute.

jeyjey pov:

I was showing Benji literally the most embarrassing TikToks on earth, he seemed to really enjoy that. after about 15 TikToks, Benji had stopped talking. he didn't say anything. I just continued on scrolling through, but by the corner of my eye I could see him staring at me. what do I do? ok.....um ugh! I looked over at him with a sweet smile. " oh!... sorry jeyjey. I didn't relize you were still going!" i guess he started to blush when i looked over a him." its okay Benji, they were really cringey anyway.
