A slow burn friends to lovers story following the protagonists David and Austin in their budding relationship. Would this crush ruin their appearance to their peers or make them the new favorite couple? Will they ever admit their feelings, or leave...
"Darling!" My textone beckoned. It was the voice of my favorite anime character, zero-two. Usually I would be happy to hear it, but it intercepted with my rest. I turned over, a ray of light perfectly hitting the side of my bed. Atleast I hadn't slept in until 7pm. When I turned my phone over, I noticed a text from Kaia. I was glad that I had finally gotten a text, usually I was the one sending texts but never getting a response.
——Kaia <coconut doggy> 😜 Davey poo! Are you still going to that farmer convention? Also Aussy saucey waussy was upset that you shaved off your mullet yesterday 🥺🥺#besties😍💋👯♂️ I surprised myself by smiling slightly at the text. Kaia's half-sarcastic text made me question, Austin cares about my hair?
David 🌈🥥—— Yeah, I'm going to the convention. And it's called Huntin' Fishin' and Truckn' for your information 🙄
——Kaia <coconut doggy>😜 Whatever. Have fun at loser-fest 🎣🛻
— I closed IMessage and checked Instagram and Twitter. I clicked on Swaggersoul's Twitter, clicking like on the most recent tweet. I look up at the top bar of my phone 11:01 AM. "I better get dressed!" I say to myself, gaily. Ew. That sounds wrong.. the only man I would date would be Chris Hemsworth <3 anyways, I pulled a long sleeve salt life shirt on and slipped into my jeans. I still had a few minutes before I left so I started watching some markiplier. The car ride there was long, but I turned on my AirPods and listened to some music. I pretended I was in a music video while "Mr. Blue sky" played in the background. The convention was awesome, I met so many cool people that appreciated turkey hunting as much as I did. I also got some gear and duck calls. But the fun had to be ruined when I saw him. He turned his head toward me and our eyes met for what felt like an eternity, "David!!" He called. I looked away quickly, half as a joke but half because I didn't want to talk to him.
Austin's POV:
"David" I quickly called out to the lanky man before me. I knew David was a turkey hunter...? But- I didn't know he was a SERIOUS hunter until I saw the big haul of goodies he carried. I maintained eye contact, his greasy hair was a bit distracting not to look at, but I managed. I fidgeted with my 69 k gold rolex (encrusted with diamonds if you did'nt know, it was a gift from Pops'!) while I waited for David to respond.
What.
David looked away.
what did I do?
David's eyes remained on his black van shoes with a built-in fanny pack.
Did he not hear me? Did he do that on purpose? Or on accident? Did he not recognize me? I mean, I barley recognized him with his new hair.
He started walking away towards the new truck model, which I already looked at. It had three built in radios, and speakers!
My attention snapped back to David
"Yo! Melvin! You scared of me? Don't be shy, I don't bite... that much!" I gave a fake chuckle as his head slightly turned, the hair on his neck standing up.
"What do yoooou want." he replied with a sarcastic-snarky tone
My heart gave a jolt
"I want you Melvin, only you."
SHOOT
WHAT DID I JUST SAY?
I mean, why am I worrying it was just a joke, playful friend flirting!
Gosh, Cooper and Williams habits really are brushing off on me, I laughed to myself right before I saw David storm off, walking right past a rack of deer stands, leaving me standing in the crowd.
all alone.
