THE OLD FRIEND

However, by the next morning, Ethan had managed to convince himself that the previous day's events did not affect him too much. Almost. After spending time with Blake in such a good mood and without the anxiety of messages and pictures was not easy. Together they watched a terrible movie, argued about whose taste was worse, and enjoyed the comfortable silence, which had become something that Ethan anticipated every time.

It was so easy. Too easy, perhaps. This is why Ethan realiz

  • GOLDEN BOY, BAD BOY   CHAPTER 145: THE WRONG MOMENT

    THE WRONG MOMENTEthan sat in the very back of the library with his textbook open in front of him and no clue what he had just read during the past ten minutes. It was the same paragraph, so he read the first sentence again, then the second one, and realized by the third sentence that he had completely forgotten the first. With a soft sigh, he put his pen down and leaned back in his chair.Everything around him continued to happen normally, as if nothing in his life had ever become complicated. Pages were turning, someone was whispering near the computer section, the air conditioning was working steadily above him and the librarian's cart made a squeaking noise on the floor every few seconds. It was supposed to be peaceful, but it wasn't.He could not get that message out of his mind.*I TOLD YOU TO STOP FOLLOWING HIM.*Ethan could not forget the words shining on his phone, and how Blake's expression had changed after Ethan showed him that message. At first there had been shock, and t

  • GOLDEN BOY, BAD BOY   CHAPTER 144: GIVING HIM SPACE

    GIVING HIM SPACEEthan honored his promise. He stayed away from Blake throughout the rest of the day, and it wasn't easy. That was the first thing he realized. He had gotten so used to finding Blake between classes, walking with him to lunch, meeting up with him after practice, sitting somewhere with him that avoiding him became unnatural.But Blake had asked for space, and Ethan had decided to give it to him. When the final bell rang, Ethan gathered his books and left, not even glancing at the football field. He didn't text Blake or wait for him by the school entrance or even see if Blake had left yet. He simply left for home, and for some reason, it hurt even more than being apart from Blake.---The next day, Ethan came to school with a plan. He wouldn't avoid Blake, but he wouldn't chase after him either. They would talk if they met, they wouldn't if they didn't. Simple, at least it was the plan.But he was halfway down the hall when he heard a burst of laughter behind him and rec

  • GOLDEN BOY, BAD BOY   CHAPTER 142: TOO CLOSE

    TOO CLOSEFor several days, Ethan kept convincing himself he wasn't jealous. He was just cautious, he called it, whenever he caught himself trying to locate Blake in between classes or whenever he started taking the same route to the cafeteria Blake and Maya usually took. He was just being cautious, he said to himself whenever he found himself moving closer to Blake and Maya during lunch breaks. He was being cautious when he started to ask Blake what he was going to be doing after school.He wasn't being jealous. He just wanted to know more, that's what he was telling himself.Monday seemed to be pretty easy to handle. Blake and Maya spent most of lunch break reminiscing about their childhood memories, and Ethan listened to them talking about their former teacher and the playground they both hated and their families. He even laughed a couple of times.Tuesday was a different story though. Blake and Maya spent most of their time together walking to their classes, eating lunch and study

Together they watched a terrible movie, argued about whose taste was worse, and enjoyed the comfortable silence, which had become something that Ethan anticipated every time.It was so easy. Too easy, perhaps. This is why Ethan realized the difference when he entered the school.Blake was not in front of his locker, and Ethan slowed down, anticipating seeing Blake there with the lazy grin with which he always looked waiting for somebody. Instead, there was a tall girl in front of the locker with dark hair tied loosely in a ponytail, navy blue backpack on one shoulder, and a confident expression of a girl who just found herself in this place. And Blake was standing right next to her, laughing over something she had said.Etha

  • GOLDEN BOY, BAD BOY   CHAPTER 140: THE DAY AFTER

    THE DAY AFTERThe morning after homecoming somehow seemed to be completely ordinary. This was the first thing Ethan realized that day. There were no decoration-bearing students running through the hallways, there were no people who ran from one place to another in an attempt to get to the class before the dance started and no one discussing anyone with anyone else. The doors of the gymnasium were closed and the emptiness inside the room covered with scattered decorations was hidden from sight.Everything seemed to return to its usual form. Or, at least, pretended to be.Ethan entered the school building with his backpack thrown over his shoulder and immediately noticed Blake standing by his locker, talking to his teammate. Ethan somehow slowed down.Blake noticed him almost immediately and their eyes met across the hallway. A faint smile appeared on his face and Ethan responded to it, even though it felt a bit different from what it was at the homecoming. There was music, lighting and

  • GOLDEN BOY, BAD BOY   CHAPTER 139: THE NIGHT THEY COULD FORGET

    THE NIGHT THEY COULD FORGETThe following day came with a special sort of anticipation at Brookwoods High. As soon as Ethan entered the school grounds, he saw that the entire school was ready for something. Strands of silver lights hung above the entrance to the school, blue-and-white decorations replaced the school flags, and a couple of students' council members carried boxes towards the gym.Homecoming. Ethan had almost forgotten about it.With all the recent events – the rumors, the blackmail, the constant feeling of somebody watching – school events had ceased to exist as such and became only background noise that he had barely paid any attention to. Now, however, there was no way of ignoring it. Students talked about the dance already, girls comparing their dresses in the corridor and boys discussing who was going to win the homecoming game. Some guy had even brought a portable speaker to the cafeteria, and he could hear some music playing from somewhere near the gym.Ethan adju

    THE HOUSE DOWN THE STREET 2The name hit Ethan like a brick and he found himself choking on his own breath. His head snapped up instantly to Tom standing a few feet away. “…Huh?” was all that slipped past his lips as his eyes widened. Tom just shrugged again like it was nothing. "He met me after

    THE HOUSE DOWN THE STREETThe glass door slid shut behind Ethan as he stepped into Tom's lawn. Thin sprinklers scattered lazily across the grass sent arcs of water glistening in the late afternoon sunlight, and the air held a faint smell of wet grass and mud. Somewhere over one of the fences, a dog

The moment Dr. Keller said they should pick their partners, the sound of chairs scraping across the floor echoed across the room as students began turning toward “Calm down," Dr. Keller shouted over the noise, slamming his palm against the desk. “G

    THE TASTE OF REGRETThe house carried the strong smell of beer–one that Ethan knew too well. It mixed with the faint scent of cigarette smoke clinging to the couch cushions and curtains, welcoming him as he opened the door. Coughing, he pushed through the ash cloud as he prayed his brother was alr
