DNG:..When I say, "Whatever It Takes", I know I can ACTUALLY make it through

Chapter 4: Bark At Moon

(Manny pov)
I was at bar waiting on Spinner to take my order as he rushed to get the other customers who must've came before me their food.

"The new manager is a battle-axe, I need a boost turnover or else." He complained.

"Sweat on you is kinda cute but sweating on food service item is little less cute." I replied, drying his sweaty face with a small towel.

"See, all better!" I went on as he smilingly just shrugged and gave me a peck on the lips.

"Oh my gosh, this is my favorite song ever!"

"Oh my gosh, my ears are bleeding." He jokingly mock as if he was a girl.

"Oh whatever! Can you remind me why am I your friend?"

"Uh, us 'Friend'..hmm, I think you meant you girlfriend me boyfriend. You make me baby, me make you go camping."

"Yeah..I know we're not official, but I think we should be so what do you say?"

"Come on, say yes."

Without giving him the answer he wanted to hear, I just told I'll think on it.

*tomorrow*

I was at the school building where I was assign to show the new guy around for the 'royal' tour. I told him about since I'm a welcoming committee, I have to show him different stuff going on plus I even told him about the tasty burrito we're having at the cafeteria.

"This is Craig Manning, from grade 11. Craig, this is Chester Hosada-Bloom."

"Oh cool, welcome..Uh, Can I talk to you for a second, Manny."

"Uh, actually I--"

"No, it's fine Manny. You two can go talk, this is the way til the burritos right?"

"Yeah."

"Cool, see ya."

"So...A lot of has been going through in my head lately including thinking about what what happened last year."

"Craig, you know it's okay, okay? I'm fine."

"No, it's not. Made a lot of mistake since coming here but you were probably the biggest."

"Wha--"

"Wait! N-n-no, no, wait, Manny! That came out badly."

"I mean if I could go back in time I would stopped that thing, you know to saved us both a lot of pain."

"So that's what you think it all was 'a lot of pain', Gee thanks for your apology b-"

"Manny that's not wha-"

"No, Craig. it's fine, I'm f--"

"No, you're not, okay? This is n—," he paused a bit, sighing before continuing.

"Now can you please give me another chance to start over so I can make it up for and explained myself more better cause what I said came out really, really ba-" Craig stated before getting cut off at the end of his sentence by moi!

"Yea, No kidding."

"Manny, I'm seriously begging you, please..." He pouted, like some sad puppy that got kicked out.

"Fine."

"Thanks. Uh, can we go do this somewhere private and we could sit down."

"Yea, sure. Let's go, Craig."

*empty classroom*

"So..what is it?"

"Uh, can you give me a sec to think over my words before I say it, coming out more bad than it really should've." he explained.
