Wildest Dreams

Crash swallowed “Just having a hard time adjusting.”

“With what?” She asked curiously.

“Thanks, babe,” he hummed confidently. “I can pay ya back in many ways,” he said with a dramatic wink as if she could see him. Once the monotone note rang in his ears he scrunched his face, and he spoke in a louder voice than normal, “Can you turn that noise down? ‘m tryna talk to ya.” It took him a few seconds of waiting to realize that she had hung up, and he laughed at himself before he tried to place the phone back where it belonged, missing the prongs a few times. The guard quickly made his way back over to Bennett, placing a strong grip on his shoulders as he lead him back to his enclosure. “Ya don’t gotta worry ‘bout me, buddy. ‘m not gon’ be here too much longer.” he said with a smug look on his face as he plopped down on a terribly uncomfortable chair. He waited for his blonde friend to swing by and be his saving grace, his eyes fixating on the clock and getting mesmerized by its ticks.

Bella just rolled her eyes, already getting used to his comments that he always made. She made her way to the car, stopping at a fast food restaurant before making her way to the police station. She ran a hand through her bleached blonde hair before parking her car. The girl grabbed her things and headed into the station. She smiled once she saw her uncle, walking into his office to persuade him to get Ben out. After about ten minutes of sweet talking, she managed to get the boy out. The girl followed her uncle, waving hello once she saw him. “You owe me” she replied, watching as he got let out.

She hugged bella “Thank you so much, it’s still not real.”

Bella hugged her back, “I know, I can imagine” she said gently.

“I have been ehh”

“Do you want to talk about it?”

He sat behind the bars, tapping his foot against the pavement, just waiting for his call, but his mind couldn’t stay focused. The taps had no rhythm whatsoever, his focus wandering to other things too quickly to manage a steady beat. The view from behind the bars wasn’t exactly a pretty one, but he couldn’t keep his sly smile from spreading. If that didn’t make it obvious enough, then the red in his eyes did. He rubbed at his eyes as a familiar face gave him a nod, which they both knew meant it was time for his call. He jumped up, his walk stumbling at first, then made his way to where the cop stood, his eyes wandering with a sour look. He followed him, reaching the telephone and he could almost taste the freedom that stood on the horizon.

The pads of his fingers dialed the number he knew all too well by now, it was almost like conditioning at this point. The enclosure he was bound to as of right now meant little to him, because he knew very well that he wouldn’t be stuck there for long. “Heeeey,” he said, stressing the vowel sound. “Wanna help ya friend out, Bellz?” he slurred, giving her a nickname on the spot that he probably wouldn’t remember in an hour. “Y’know, ‘m a bit hungry, could ya bring a burger wit’ ya or somethin’?” he asked, completely forgetting to tell her about the situation he was in. It probably wasn’t hard for her to figure out though, a midnight call, slurred voice, and a caller i.d. of the police station. “Oh, almost forgot to tell ya! It’s Bennett. And I might be stuck in the police station. Again.” he laughed, as if it was all a funny joke.

Bella hadn’t been up to much recently. She had been too involved in her school work to really pay attention to the world around her. With the recent death of her father, all she really needed was a distraction. She was at home, typing up an essay for english when she heard her phone buzz. At first she was a little suspicious, it was a blocked number, and they always made her uneasy, but she figured it might be Ben in some situation again, so the girl answered it and chewed on the end of her pen, “Hello?” she asked calmly, leaning back against her bed frame.

She was right, it was Bennett. The girl sighed, already hearing in his tone that he was high. “Hey, Ben” she said quietly, scratching the back of her neck as he listened to him stumble over his words. They were friends, and she always got him out of trouble, but there was a part of her that couldn’t help but think the only reason why he spoke to her was because of how often she did get him out of trouble. The girl chewed her lip and sighed, “Wow, hilarious. I’ll be there soon with a cheeseburger” she groaned. “You owe me” the girl replied before ending the call. She stretched slightly and put her notes aside, heading to the station almost immediately after.

“Like I said its my pleasure. How have you been?”

Bella nodded, “I’ve been..okay. What about you?”

Taylor cocked her head “What do you mean but thank you I appreciate it and I’m here for you too.”

“Well I mean, I want to help out as best as I can.”

He kissed her check “No problem, can’t let a girl as pretty as you be dateless on prom night.”

Bella smiled, “Thanks, Crash.”

“Who knows, boys are weird.” She sighed “Awful physically, upset because Amadeus was hospitalized but some friends have stepped up and are going to help me through this.”

The girl sighed and nodded, “I know, oh well” she sighed. “I’m here too, y’know.”

“Oh wow that is shocking” Taylor bit her lip before shrugging “maybe he’s had a change of heart?”

The girl shrugged, "I doubt it. Why would he change for me? How are you feeling by the way?"

He wrapped an arm around her should “Exactly sweet cheeks. Let me know what color your dress is when you pick so I can match.”

Bella giggled, "I will" she smiled with a nod. "Thanks for asking me."

Crash rolled his eyes “And who would I like Bella?”

Bella shrugged, "I don't honestly" she said quietly.

He chuckled “Who else would I have asked?”

"I don't know, someone you like."

“Wait seriously? Did he make you promise to have sex with him or something?”

"No. That's what I mean by I'm a little shocked."

“Wait you really said yes?” His smile increased in size “I’ll even take you out to dinner before hand.”

Bella nodded and blushed, “Yeah, I’m actually surprised you didn’t ask out someone else.”

“I mean I’ll be dateless but I’m excited.”
