Salem x Devland

Chapter 10

Salem's POV
"Holy shit. Ronnie don't scare me like that" I said. "I'm sorry I didn't know you got scared so easily" he said. Wait why wasn't he at school? I looked at him and asked "why aren't you at school?" "Oh I had to go to the dentist. I had to get my braces adjusted" he said smiling, showing me his braces. Hmm I never knew he had braces. "Anyways wanna come over?"He asked. I looked at him confused and asked "why?" "I don't know we're both out of school so........ Yes? No?" He asked. "I guess" I said. "Great" He said grabbing me by the arm.

We got to Ronnie's house well more like he dragged me there. Yea I dropped my skateboard multiple times on the way. "What do you want to do?" Ronnie asked. Damn this kid can talk fast. "Um I don't care" I said. He looked at me with a smirk and asked "can I ask you a question?" "Sure. Go ahead" I said. "Do you like Richie?" He asked. What was this kid planning? "I mean I like him but just as a friend" I said. "Alright. Alright. But seriously I need your help finding him a man" he said serious. I never thought I would see him without a smile. I thought he was the happy joyful whatever dude.

"Um ok" I said nervously. He turned around and said "ok so I have a few pictures of him and a video of him singing Brittany Spe-" "can I see it? Pleeeeeeeeeeease?" I asked. "But I told Richie I would never show any of his friends" Ronnie said. "Well if that's the case then you should have deleted the video" I said. Ronnie sighed and said "well you have a point. You can watch it. Just don't tell him I showed it to you. It's just a really good video" "I won't tell anyone" I said. Ronnie then nodded and turned on the video.

The video ended and it was the cutest thing I've ever seen. Richie was wearing a bright pink cropped shirt with some tight black jeans singing Hit Me Baby One More Time. "That's was the cutest thing I've ever seen" I said. Ronnie smiled and said "yea. My brother can be weird sometimes but I still love him" "so why do you want to get him a date?" I asked. "Well he's had like 3 boyfriends in the past but 1 of them used the excuse of dating him to get with Rachel which she beat the shit out of him. Then the 2nd one just strait up tried to have sex with Rachel. Same thing that happened to the 1st one. And the last one was actually the best. But his parents were super homophobic so he was forced to break up with Richie and move away. They still have each other's numbers though" he explained.

Damn I feel bad for Richie. I never knew that. "Oh I didn't know that" I said. Ronnie sighed and said "yea that's why me and Rachel thought you were his boyfriend. Every time he had a boyfriend me and Rachel would start questioning them" "oh well I understand. Well I wouldn't mind dating a boy because I'm bi but I feel like me and Richie are just meant to be friends" I said. Ronnie smiled and said "yea I'm happy you guys are friends. He really needed someone other than us to talk to" "yea well what did you want to do about Richie?" I asked. I feel like that wasn't the right question. I just saw Ronnie smirk evilly. Ok I'm actually scared. Like seriously scared.

Time skip to 1 hour later~

Ok so Ronnie made a fake tinder account. And put the name and picture as Richie. I was a little unsure but you know what I tried to convince Ronnie it was wrong but he didn't listen. Ronnie was looking at every single profile to make sure they were the right one. He came down to three people. Xavier, Zach, and Jimmy. To be honest Xavier and Jimmy sounded best. No offense if your name is Zach just the other ones sounded better. Also jimmy looked really cute well more like really innocent.

"Ok so I think we should invite one over" Ronnie said. "Uh ok" I said awkwardly. Ronnie sighed and said "Come on dude. How about Xavier? He's the closest. Jimmy lives really far away" "Alright. I mean Richie will be home in a bit so we could play it off and say that Xavier is my cousin" I said. "Perfect. I'll call him" Ronnie said. He got up and went into the living room. I should call my mom to let her know that I'll be here for a while.
