Stanley Barber ff

three

      Me and Stan ended up sitting with them and we talked for a long time. Dina is super nice. I can tell Syd isn't great at making new friends, like me but she's nice too.

Dina ended up asking is we were all going to be friends. Everyone agreed with her idea so I guess I just made two new friends. It was really fun talking to them. I also met Syd's mom who works at the diner.

At one point while we're we talking and the door to the diner opened, I didn't look back to see who it was. The person walked to our table and that's when I saw who it was, Bradley Lewis. I hate him so much. He thinks he's so cool and better than everyone else in this stupid town but newsflash! He's not. He said hi to Dina and called her 'babe' so i'm guessing they're dating. To be honest, i feel bad for her.

I noticed Syd looking at Brad like she wanted to kill him or something. I saw her facial expression change and i looked over at Brad. That's when i noticed he had gotten a bloody nose. That's kind of weird and it's like I was the only one who noticed it. Dina was dragged out of the diner by Brad. Syd got called over to the cash register by her mom and had to take her brother home. That left me and Stan at the table alone.

"Hey how about we go bowl? They weren't open today and i was the last to lock up so I have the keys in my car." He looked over at me and i couldn't help but see how cute he looked.

"Umm how is that even a question? You know i love bowling!" We got out of the booth and went to the car.

We got in the car and headed to the bowling alley where Stan works. I sometimes go there after school and see him working. He lets me bowl for free since i'm his friend, i'm sure he gets told not to let me bowl for free but he does it anyway. He wears this reddish pink shirt that has his name embroidered on the shirt. He looks so cute in it and every time I see him in it I smile.

The car ride there me and Stan talked about Syd and Dina.

"So . . . did you like them?" He asked while tapping the steering wheel to the beat of the song playing.

"Yeah I actually loved them! One question though, why have you never mentioned them to me?" I looked over at him, he glanced in my direction but looked back at the road.

"I hadn't mentioned them because they just moved to town, like two or three days ago. I saw people moving in down the road and went and met Syd." He put his hand on my thigh again.

I looked down at his hand and then his face. He looked at me and smiled, I smiled back and put my hand on top of his. I think I like Stan. No, never mind I don't. Maybe I do, ugh I don't know.

*Little time skip to when they get to the bowling alley*

Stan parked the car in a spot that's reserved just for him. We got out of the car and went into a door that led us to a room full of different sized shoes and cleaning products. He opened lane twenty, that was my usual lane. He also got us bowling shoes. He picked out bowling balls, we put on our shoes, and typed in our names to the screen above us. I have a strong feeling i'm going to beat Stan.

Stan let me go first, he said it's because 'i'm a lady'. I stepped up and rolled the ball, I knocked over eight pins. I went again and knocked over the other two earning me, a spare. Stan went and got a strike, I was in shock.

"Damn Barber, I didn't know you were good a bowling." I sat still in shock.

"Well you know I work here right? I do play sometimes when people aren't here. Also of course you wouldn't know, we've never bowled together." He stood in front of me with a stupid cute smirk on his face.

"Whatever, i'm still going to beat you." I got up and took my turn.

*Time skip to the last round*

Stan and I were currently tied at eighty each. I go and get nine, Stan goes and gets a fucking ten.

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" I get up and go to him, I push on his chest and he stumbles backwards.

"Oh it's okay (y/n), it's just a game." He wraps me in his arms and I lay my head on his chest where I before had pushed him.

"I know it's okay and it's just a game. I just wanted to win" I look up at him and pout.

"I know you did. Here, I might have something that will cheer you up." He put his hands on my shoulders to have me step back a little.

He looked me right in the eyes and didn't say anything. I started to feel awkward and I ended up looking everywhere around the bowling alley except for him. Then it happened. He leaned forward and kissed me again. Stan kissed me TWICE in ONE day. I don't know how to describe the way I feel when i'm with Stan, or even when he kisses me. I just know i don't hate it.
