A Happy End to High School; Part 4

Last night was a great success I thought to myself as I lay in bed. I checked the time on my phone and it was just after half nine. I had work at the store today but didn’t need to be there till eleven. I decided to kill some time and phoned Marc, after a few rings he answered;

“Sup man?” I asked

“Nothing much bro just getting ready to head out.” He says down the phone.

“Where you off too like?”

“Mums dragging me to see ma nan, fun times I know!” He complained.

“So what happened last night??” I a little excitably asked.

“Aww man it was amazing!!” He perked up “she wanted to see that action thriller that’s been out for a while, I can’t even remember the name of the film it was that bad!”

“Why did she want to see that?” I questioned.

“Mate! She must have known the cinema would be dead. As soon as the film starts she pulls my arm over her and she places it straight on her chest. I froze and was like ‘eh what the fuck’. She then started rubbing my leg and up towards my crotch. Long story short dude she fucking blow me off in the back of the cinema!!”

“No fucking way!!” I shouted “I would never imagine her like that!!”

“Me neither man but fuck it was awesome! I’m meeting her again Sunday and she said more of the same will happen!” He sounded delighted.

“Yass man, that’s what I’m talking about! And you were shiting yourself as well!!” I joked.

“Yeah yeah, so what happened with you and Traci?”

“I shit you not man, I shagged her behind the old book store!”

“Fuck off! Bullshit!!” He scoffed at me.

“Honest man, swear on your life!” I said in a serious voice and then explained what happened last night.

“Dude Traci is a pure dirt bag!” He laughed.

“I know right. I can believe I shagged her against a dumpster!” I laugh back.

“Who did you shag where?” Hailey said as she came into my room.

“Hailey what the fuck??” I shot up in my bed. “What the hell are you even doing here?”

“Hey easy now! I came to say bye and then I’m hearing all this about what you, and who I can only guess is Marc got up too last night!” She sternly told me crossing her arms.

“Marc I’ll phone you back!” I hung up and get out of my bed. “That’s my business Hailey, don’t you even knock?” I asked angrily.

“Don’t need to be so angry bro! I know who you were out with last night and doesn’t surprise me what happened. I just wanted to say you could do better!” She said as she moved closer to me.

“What? Why would you even care what I get up to with who!” I said as I stood my ground.

“I don’t care Josh, I just want to look out for my ‘big’ brother!” She emphasised the big as moves right up to me, she lent to her side and grabbed a towel and put it to my crotch. “See!” She said with a wink as she walked out.

“Fuck” I said to myself, I forgot that I had tossed my boxers last night and hadn’t put new ones on. I had basically bared all to my sister.

I hear Hailey head out and I decided to finally get ready for work. Mom works every second Saturday and today was one of those days. Once I’m ready I grabbed a quick bite to eat and headed off to work.
It doesn’t take me long to get there and today there was no Becki, she didn’t work Friday nights or Saturdays, as you could probably guess why!

“Yoo Josh, what’s up dude!” Benjamin, we call him ‘Benji’ said to me from behind the counter. Benji was about 25 I think. He was a tall lanky guy, shaggy brown haired guy. Had a stoner look about him but he was a genuine great guy.

“Sup Benji, not much man just had some good fun last night!” I said grinning.

“Yeah? C’mon spill!” He eagerly asked.

“A gentleman never tells!” I said straight faced.

“Lucky you aren’t a gentleman!!” He laughed.

“Haha that’s true, basically fucked this cute little Chinese bird last night.” I said with the grin back.

“Ma man!” He said offering me a fist bump. “Oh by the way do you know a Ted… Ted Clark?”
I look at him puzzled and shook my head. “You sure? I’m positive he’s Becki’s boyfriend!”

I froze, “eh what?” I timidly asked.

“Yeah yeah, he’s back from his tour and was in last night. They were talking about you then he flipped.” He said straight faced.

“Tour?” I could feel myself turning pale white.

“Tour of Iraq, he’s a marine and got back two days ago and surprised her yesterday. They were talking fine and then it all kicked off. Something about broken limbs and hospital food!” He said trying to remember what happened.

I gulped deeply and felt I’m faint. I was speachless.

“Hahahaha!! Oh man!!” He burst out laughing.

I snapped from my daze.

“Holy shit man should have seen your face!” He laughed.

“What! What the??” I said confused.

“Aww dude I’m messing with you. I was working with her yesterday morning and she told me about you and her.” He said wiping the tears from his face.

“Are you serious?” I breathed deeply, as I held a shelf for balance.

“Oh yeah man, she used to blow me in the back last year!” He said.

“Wait what?” I asked confused.

“You didn’t know?” I shook my head “yeah man when she was 18 she sucked me off a few times. But I got myself a girlfriend and Becki got bored of me since I didn’t want fun with her anymore. I thought you knew man!” He said sincerely.

“I had no clue” I laughed “did it happen here??”

“Nah it was always in my car when I would give her a ride home.” He grinned.

“She’s good eh!” I laughed with him.


The Saturday shift was always easy. There’s a steady stream of customers to keep you busy and it was always a laugh working with Benji. Before I knew it, it was six o’clock and time to shut up shop. It was never open late on a Saturday cause no one ever wants to work it. Poor old Wes probably wouldn’t mind it but Kathy doesn’t want him working alone. Benji cashed up the till as I closed the shutters. The benefit of finishing with Benji was I could get a ride home. I didn’t mind the walk but I’d happily take the lift.

I’m home in no time and I say my byes to Benji as he speed off. I get into the house and I heard laughter. I closed the door behind me and headed to the lounge where the laughing was coming from. Hailey was watching a film with an other girl who I couldn’t see.

“Oh look who it is” Hailey turned her face up at me.

“Hi josh!” Heather said as she lent round the edge of the chair.

“Eh hi Heather! Hailey, where’s mum?”

“Kitchen I think!” She replied returning her focus to the movie.

“Bye josh!” Heather said with a wink as I headed to the kitchen.
