The Kids From Yesterday

"Here are your drinks." The waitress said, placing them on the table in their cardboard box."Enjoy."
"Thanks." Me and Frank said together and got up. Frank took the drinks and we walked back over to the store. He placed them on the desk and called, "Order up!"
Mikey and Ray took one, and we all leant against the counter sipping our drinks.
"Any customers?" I asked .
"Nope." Mikey said, wandering back over to the CDs.
"Well, technically, yeah. We kind of are customers." Frank said, winking at me. Which made me slightly embarrassed, but in a good way.
"Oh yeah," Ray laughed. "Well, it'd be rude not to buy anything." Ray grinned and picked up a CD. "How much?" He asked, placing it on the desk.
"Well," I laughed, walking behind it, "they're all four dollars."
"Hmm." Ray pulled out four notes from his jacket. "There ya go."
"Thank you. You have a good day." I smiled pleasantly, doing my best snotty shop keeper impression. They all laughed.

When my lunch break started, I temporarily locked up and we went over to the coffee shop for lunch. We sat where me and Frank sat earlier, Ray and Mikey sat on the sofa across from us. We all nominated Mikey to order. Frank and me got fries to share, and Ray and Mikey both got bacon sandwiches.
We msotly talked about video games. The old arcade video games, then the old ps2 video games, etcetera. The history of video games, basically. Then, it was five minutes until the end of my lunch break, and we had to go back. We spent the next few hours just chatting. I mostly talked to Frank. God, why, why did you make a guy so adorable? It's not fair.

"Hey, why don't you guys come back to our place for tea?" I asked, as we all prepared to leave the shop. "We could order take-out and watch Dawn of The Dead?" We had already established that it was the greatest horror movie in existence.
"yeah, that sounds awesome!" Frank said, beaming again.
"Sure, why not?" Ray grinned. "I'll just text my mom."
"Me too." Frank agreed.
So, on the way home, instead of Frank stopping at the house with the barking dog, or Ray turning down the alleyway, we went straight to the bus stop. It was cool sharing a bus together. Naturally, me and Frank sat together, and Mikey and Ray sat behind. Me and Frank shared headphones, while Ray and Mikey talked about the shiny Mustang bass in the shop window. Frank's hand was milimetres away from mine. I could almost feel his peacefulness radiating onto my hand. It wasn't awkward though. It was a serene, heart pumping few minutes. I could tell we were both enjoying each other's company.
Then the bus stopped. I almost didnt want to get off. I could've just stayed there listening to music with Frank for hours. But it was starting to rain, and Frank only had a hoodie.
We walked down the road, all talking about (oddly enough) dogs. Frank loved dogs, apparently. As well as the tiny dog always yapping in his garden, he also had a Great Dane. Ray had a Labrador. Unfortunately, we had no pets, because I'm allergic to cats, and my mom was too cautious to get any other animals in case I was allergic to fur in general.

We all went straight into the small square living room. There was a three seater sofa, and a one-seater, the three seater facing the TV, the one seater facing the window. I sat in the one seater, however Frank was nearest to me on the three seater, which I liked. Then it was Mikey, then Ray. We ordered pizza, which came about fifteen minutes into the movie. Ray went and got it for us, and put it on the coffee table. Several times during the movie I swear I could feel Frank staring at me, and I stared at him a few times too. Most of the movie I was concentrating on trying not to look at him, or trying to force myself not to meet his stare. Ray and Mikey were engrossed in it, which was not unusual for Mikey. I hoped he didn't notice me lack of reaction whenever someone got ripped to shreds.
Technically, frank and Mikey were too young to drink, but I passed them both one of my beers, and Ray too. They both appreciated it very much, and when I was passing Frank's to him, i touched his hand and I swear I felt something. Like, my heart kind of skipped a beat. I think his did too.
Dammt. Why am I so attached to him already?
