Choices

Chapter 1

BUZZ!!  The sound you dread after 3 months of freedom, the first alarm
clock for the first day of school. Vince was excited because today he
started high school, at 14 150lbs with a perfect face and a great head of
blonde hair to complement he knew he was bound to be a smash hit with the
girls. Though he would prefer to be a smash hit with the boys, he wasn't
about to let anyone at his school know that small detail.  Even though he
was excited about school, he wasn't so happy about waking up at six every
morning.

"WAKE UP VINNY YOU GOT 5 MINUTES BEFORE I DRAG YOUR ASS OUTTA BED"

Vince admired his father, he was only 16 when Vince's mom dropped him off
and said here take him, he had built a great life for he and his son, his
once small business became incorporated and sky-rocketed to the top, and he
is a very powerful man, but always makes time for his little buddy.

"VINCENT ANDREW CARLSON GET OUT OF THAT GODDAMNED BED"

He knew that once his father used his full name and a swear word that meant
business

"I'm UP!"

He walked to his closet and picked out his favorite new outfit a pink HCO
shirt and a pair of cargo shorts, on his way to the bathroom he checked
himself out in the mirror taking note of a new muscle, and happy with his
summer tan.

After his shower he hoped down the stairs, and bounded into the kitchen

"Hey kid, have you seen my son? he's a small boy with blonde hair and a
button nose, very cute, looks a bit like you, but you look much too mature
to be him, if you see him let him know I'm looking for him.. thanks, oh and
what are you doing in my house, child I have never seen before."

"Ah ha-ha Daddy real funny, but really how do I look?"

"I can honestly say if I didn't live with you or know anything about you I
would be in awe. and...Daddy? What's the occasion, you need money?"

"No Daddy I was just fishing for a ride to school."

"No fishing needed little buddy, you high school is right on the way to the
office but you have to pay me.."

He opened his arms

"Bu..Oh"

"HEY, easy on the goods buddy this suit is Gucci"

"God dad you are such a homo sometimes."

"HEY Now you listen to me young man, gay people are just as good as any
person on this planet, and it is very VERY wrong for you or anybody else to
use that kind of language as an insult,

"Daddy, I love you and I'm sorry I won't do it anymore."

"Son I didn't mean to make you cry but please understand that people have
feelings and especially at school, you won't know who is actually a
homosexual, and if they hear those words you can hurt them and think I
raised you to be better than all that.  Now let's move it or we'll be
late."

They made the 10 minute drive in 5 minutes.

"You need me to come in with you?"

"Dad I'm fourteen I think I can handle finding a class room."

As he made his way through the halls he was searching for somebody, anybody
that he knew, and there she was his lifetime friend, Amy Combs, looking so
beautiful with her long blonde hair and her skimpy summer outfit.

"Peek a boo, I spy a tramp!"

"Listen ass hole, I don't need any shit today"

Smile

"OH MY GOD, VINCE! YOU LOOK SO DIFFERENT!" She practically squealed

"Hey sexy beast how have you been I haven't since you since graduation?"

"Great I've been great."

"Nice rack you have there are they stuffed or did they come like that."

"Thank you for noticing, they are 100% pure, and look at you Mr. Muscle
Man, I can't believe you're finally taller than me, remember though I can
still beat you."

"How's Jerry?" With just a hint or sarcasm "Ugh don't get me started on
that piece of shit, insert I told you so, we are SO over."

"It's about time, I hated that guy!"

"OOOH lemme see your schedule"

"YES WE ARE EXACTLY THE SAME!!!!!!"

"Great now I have no way to get rid of you."

"Shut up let's go we have a little time to find out where we are supposed
to be."

With that Amy grabbed Vincent's hand and led him off into the sea of
teenagers.

"Here we are room 240A Mr. Conroy Subject World History, this should be
fun"

Taking note that nobody was there yet Amy and Vince decided to go hang out
in the halls

"HEY VINNY AMY WAIT UP!!" Screamed what sounded to be more than two people

Both turned and watched as their little clique from 8th grade found their
way to them, Vanessa Jamie, Mike, and Carly, all came running up to them

"Schedules!!"

"Did you guys rehearse that or are you all just so dumb you can't string a
coherent sentence together?" Amy asked with a smile

Jamie perked up "Hey Ames how's it hangin'?"

"Well seeing as you have about as much of a dick as I do, you tell me."

"OOOOOOOHHHHHH"

"Will you two ever get along."

"Well that depends on how you define get along, if by get along you mean,
have a two faced attitude at school and loathe each other in private, then
we already do, but if by get along you mean will I ever give tiny over
there the time of day then the answer is no."

"and wouldn't you know it we all have the first 3 classes of the day, let's
just hope seating isn't assigned by last name."

"Ah yes the middle school days, Combs and Cooper, always lab partners in
every class they shared, don't worry though Amers C3 only have 3 classes
together."

"Ok guys I need to talk to Vince, all y'all go to class we'll see you."

All the rest left the two of them alone.

"Okay Vince out with it, Are you gay?"

"WHAT?!?"

"I saw the way you were staring at Mikey, and yeah the dude is fucking hot
but you were like drooling, so tell me, I don't have a problem with it."

"Yes Amy I am a homosexual."

"Good...So am I.."

"WHAT?!"

"Me and Jerry meant nothing to me, and I couldn't just out myself to you
without knowing you could accept me."

"What do we do?, we are freshman they will eat us alive if they find out."

"From now on Vince me and you are a couple."

"How is that gonna help?"

"Hello dumb ass we are two really hot kids, and if we are "dating" then
nobody will even suspect otherwise"

"This is good, but you know if we want to make it seem real we are gonna
have to act completely straight, meaning kissing touching, and all that,
you game?"

"totally, won't my boobs like turn you off?"

Bell Rings

"Of course they will, we gotta book, that was the warning bell we have 2
minutes left."

As they walked they held hands a whispered and tried their best to look
like a couple

They walked through the door of room 240A just as the bell rang

"Mr. Carlson and Miss Combs I can safely presume"

Looking around they noticed all eyes on them including the teacher's

"I don't suppose that you two obviously being a couple is going to stop you
from working to your full potential as study partners." He seem nice
enough, his tone wasn't harsh or mean spirited

Again, they looked to two empty seats at the very front first two desks,
obviously being the first two people in the alphabetical order of the list.

"No sir" they replied at the same time and headed to their respective
desks, Vincent mesmerized the girls and Amy the boys, but every single
person in the room including Mr. Conroy was completely taken aback at the
perfection of the couple, the boy and girl next door.

"Alright guys now that you're all here, I think it's time for roll call, if
you have a name you prefer please tell me."

After roll it was time to play the introduction games that everyone knows
and despises.

"I want you all to say a quality that you see in the people next to you,
Start with your name and say, I am blank and I see blank in blank, the last
person will make a comment about Vince here, Vince start us off"

All the girls seemed to tune in when Vince stood.

"I'm Vince, and I see everything pure and wonderful about the world in
Amy."
	He meant it too and he wasn't faking it

Every eye in the room seemed to widen and from the girls there was an
audible AWW.

When Amy stood all eyes were on her.

"I'm Amy, and I see a person who would walk through fire just to hold me
when I cry in Vince, and I see strength in Jamie"
	She meant it, and wasn't happy about having to say something nice
about Jamie but meant that too.

When they got to the last person, nobody was paying very much attention,
his name was Drake, and he was gorgeous though not as strikingly drop dead
as Vince, he had it going on.

He stood

"I'm Drake, and I see truth in Carly, and I see courage in Vince."

Vince got a chill when he heard the way Drake said courage, almost as if he
knew that Vince had something he needed courage for, that wasn't typical.

Class ended and the group of friends began their walk to their next class,
Spanish in room 320B with Mrs. Stevens.  Carly began, "why didn't you guys
tell us you were dating?"

"Because we knew you wouldn't shut up about it."

Jamie chimed in "well dude you got the short end of that stick.!"

"WATCH IT JAMIE!" Vince managed to blurt out with anger it came fairly
easily

"Sorry dude."

"I think it's good as long as you're happy." The way Mikey said it almost
sounded as thoughhe was jealous of him

"Well gee don't sound so enthused." Amy laughed

"Sit!"

they heard as soon as they walked in the door. Noting that their names were
written on dry erase boards on their desks, Once again Amy and Vince were
partners

They were assigned Spanish names and told they could talk the rest of the
period

The rest of the day went well and at 2:30 the day was done, and his dad was
waiting for his in the pick up/drop off zone

"Hey Dad!"

"Hey buddy how was your first day!"

"Awesome, but we have to talk."

"Okay hop in and let's go for a drive."

"What's up son?"

"I have a confession to make to you,"

"Okay what happened?"

"Nothing, I just really have to tell you this."

"Go ahead"

"you know how I made that comment about you being so homo sometimes"

"Yeah.. Why are we on this? I thou..." "I said it because I wanted to find
out how you felt about gay people"

"Well son that was a run about method, but you certainly got me going, why
did you want to know so bad."

"I wanted to know how you would feel about me......."

To be continued....
