BULLY (choen)

20

Payton was acting weird and Avani can see that. He wanted to spend more time with her and she had no time to talk to Kevin. She wondered why he acting so attached to her. They literally sneaked out together because Payton wanted to go get ice cream with her tonight. She was going to say no but she could never say no to him.

He was too adorable. His baby face and small pout had her heart. They weren't dating. Just two people casually enjoying each other's presence in the world. The young boy was literally devouring his whole vanilla sprinkle ice cream in a heartbeat. Avani chuckled, "You ate it like you never had it before". Payton smiled hard and shoving the cone in his mouth.

They walked down the street in the neighborhood in the sound of Payton munching on the cone. "I want to enjoy it before I can't anymore" He laughed. "What do you mean?" She questioned him with a raised eyebrow. He shrugged, "I don't know". The young girl wasn't sure if she believed him or not. It seemed like he had more to say than that what he was telling her but she let it go.

She wanted to change the topic to about Chase. Avani didn't like him at all but he did save her best friend. Plus, Chase was like a big brother to Payton he never had. She wanted to make sure he was okay. "How is Chase holding up?" Payton glanced at her but then down at the floor. "He's fine.. I'm just glad he's okay kinda just shows that you don't have a long time on earth" He sighed heavily.

It was true. Payton was beginning to realize that your time on earth could be taken away from you. "What happened to him... I just know I want to cherish things more... I want to live more. I have so many dreams of being something in this world and it made me realize I have to live in the now" he continued. "Chase... he always angry and act on his emotions. I don't want to be remembered like that".

"I want to leave a mark on the world. I'm trying to tell a lot of jokes so people will think I'm funny and not angry.. I just hope to make a lot people happy I'm afraid that I won't "Payton was babbling on. Avani was listening to him with fondness though. She didn't mind when he expressed his thoughts to her. "Pay... you have all your life to make people happy and tell your jokes don't worry about leaving a mark" She told him, wrapping an arm under his.

This action made them walk closer together, side by side. "Ughhh I don't have all my life I want to be known by everyone.. and not have any forget me" He stated his fear. Payton did really want to remember by all. He wanted to be praised not forgotten how Chase was after 48 hours. "I would remember If you died because you're important to me.. it doesn't matter if you aren't loved by the world... you're loved by your mom and your friends and me" they sat on a park bench.

Payton grinned widely. "So you love me?" He asked her. He was a million times happier knowing that she did. "Yeah I do how could I not? You're my favorite person" her voice was sincere and genuine. "Why are you so worried about this? You're not dying anytime soon peanut" Avani chuckled, resting her head on his shoulder.

It was nickname she called him. It was because he looked like one. Payton liked it though because it was her. He pouted, wrapping his arm around her, "Love you Vani" his voice was barely a whisper. Payton's heart hurt, he didn't like hiding the truth.

"Didn't think you would agree to meet up with me" Noen said to Cynthia. They were in a small isolated starbucks. It was late so only a few customers were there. "Well you are the reason my boyfriend almost died" she had an attitude. She did not like this Noen kid. Cynthia was right about him. He was no good for Chase and almost practically killed him.

Noen came here to apologize to her personally. He didn't know Cynthia like that but she was closet to Chase. The attitude and the vibes she was giving off, he does and doesn't understand why they were together. They're both held hostility and rudeness for no absolute reason. Cynthia was just a girl version of Chase but more sassy. The blonde haired boy thought he could do so much better than her.

Cynthia was perfect 10 but her personality was not. "I came here to say sorry.." he began. It was so hard for him to talk about this. He felt like this was his fault and she wasn't sugarcoating it either. "You're sorry? Really that's all you have to say? Chase is in hospital half dead while you're breathing and you're saying sorry?" She wasn't going to bite her tongue anymore.

The young girl was pissed. "Just stay away from him already... You hurt him enough Noen" Her words broke his heart. All the guilt rushed down him like tsunami that he didn't see coming. "He saved me...." His voice was dead. That's all he thought about. Minutes before the accident, he literally told Chase he didn't care about anyone but he saved him.

"And he shouldn't have, it should've been you" Cynthia's voice was becoming grating to him. "He saved me because he cares about me" Noen glared at her. He wouldn't have done that if he didn't. The older boy was trying to figure out his motive behind it. "Oh honey.." Cynthia begin to chuckle to herself. Strangers glanced at her with raised eyebrows because she sounded like a crazy person.

She laughed because what Noen was telling her was a big joke. "Don't tell me that you think he's in love with you.." The young girl gave him fake smiled. "Chase will never be into you. He never will. I mean look at you... I know my boyfriend kissed you back but cmon he saved you because he was just being nice. Don't try it. He'll never love you back" Cynthia scolded him. Her words were icy and bitter.

She got up with her hand bag to go to the bathroom. The thing about Cynthia was that she was jealous. She knew damn well Chase had feelings but doesn't mean she was not going to mess with Noen's head. The blonde haired boy was left distraught in silence. Maybe the young girl was right. Even if Chase cared about him, did he love Noen? He strongly doubt it.

Noen was losing faith himself and the whole relationship. He decided he was going to think about Chase like that anymore. He wasn't even gay. Cynthia gave him an eye roll when leaving the starbucks. He sighed, checking his phone. Noen stood up and walked inside the all gender bathroom to wash his face. He splashed his face with some water and wiped it with paper towel.

He dusted himself off, realizing near his foot their was a pregnancy test. Noen picked up slowly, observing it. Two lines= Positive. He read. Was Cynthia pregnant?
