Sweet As Sugar (BxB) [COMPLETED]

Chapter Fifty-eight:

"me? Please, it wouldn't be fair to you. I've been gone for three months" I said.

"yeah, three months that we played like absolute shit" he chuckled.

I nodded, hoping to end this conversation as fast as I can.

"so... it's almost prom time..." Cole said.

"Are you asking me out?" I snickered.

"no. I was just wondering who you are going to take out"

I could hear Matthew chuckling from the other side of the room.

Ugh.

"how's that any of your business?"

"Woah, chill dude, I was just trying to make sure we won't try to ask the same girl out, because let's face it, my odds are not as good as yours" Cole defended.

"don't worry about it, I don't think I'll go anyway," I said.

"why? This is our last prom! You got to go! Everyone's got to go!"

"it's whatever... I'll just show up alone" I mumbled.

"a-alone? Brian, is everything ok with you? You're acting different ever since you left. And now that you're back, I was hoping everything is alright with you-"

"everything is alright with me, Cole"

"ok, ok! Whatever you say, bro! so, it will be completely ok for me to ask Britney for prom?" he asked.

"sure, do whatever you want" I slammed my locker and grabbed my bag.

"Thanks, bro!" I could hear Cole calling as I left the locker-room.

"what are you going to do after we graduate?" I asked Zach.

His head was resting on my stomach while I played his hair.

"I'm going to learn how to be a pâtissier, you know, accomplish my dream"

"that's nice"

"how about you?"

"I don't know yet"

"that's fine," Zach said.

I sighed.

It's gotta be nice, knowing everything, figuring it all early.
