"All right, pretty boy, since my date stole yours, let's go," Willow said, walking to the dance floor without looking behind her to see if Hunter was following.
"So, Leo, how's it going with Willow?" Kenzie asked, smirking at him. "She makes life pretty interesting, doesn't she?"
Hunter shrugged, following Willow, his eyes trailing every guest they could meet. When they reached the dance floor, he held out his hand for Willow to take.
Leo grinned.
"She's incredibly fun," he answered. "But never mind that. How's it going with Hunter? That was some intense make-out session a few minutes ago."
(I just realized that this RP is 2 months old today! XD)
(Our baby wipes fake tear)
(XD Lol. I missed mentioning it last month, so I wanted to mention it this month. ;P)
(It's been so much fun. It's my third month at Notebook, by the way xD)
(It has! It's my 2nd month. I think I created this RP the first day I joined.)
(That's awesome!)
(XD Yeah, but I had no idea what I was doing. I definitely do now, though!)
(I've done a lot of RPs. I love RPing~)
"I'm assuming that, since you've already danced with her at least twice now," Willow started, taking Hunter's hand, "that Kenzie told you she doesn't know how to dance?"
Kenzie's smirk faded, replaced by a more embarrassed look at the mention of earlier, as she softly replied, "It's going well. I'm very lucky to be with him."
Hunter put his other hand on Willow's waist, stepping closer towards her.
"She also showed me," Hunter replied, chuckling. "I suppose you know how to dance?"
"He's also very lucky," Leo replied softly. "And very happy. Hey, did he ever tell you how we met?"
"I do, actually," Willow replied, setting her free hand on Hunter's shoulder. "And don't believe what she says about not being able to dance. I taught her myself. She's just shy about it and thinks she can't, but for the life of me I can't convince her that she's almost better than I am."
"No, he didn't," Kenzie said, shaking her head.
They started moving slowly to the music.
"She was actually pretty good," Hunter replied. "She stumbled a little at first, but managed to keep up properly."
Leo grinned, twirling Kenzie around.
"We were kids when we first met. He was ten, I was nine and a half," Leo started. "Funny thing is, we actually met in a Masquerade party. He had a friend with him -Jordan?- and I swear, Hunter kept following his mother around like ducklings do with their mother. He was also incredibly shy, hiding behind his mother when I approached him.
"But, we actually hated each other in the beginning. He and I both are a huge fan of chocolate cake, and there was only one slice left. Guess who ate it? Me! Hunter was so infuriated, he tripped me and I fell face-first on my cake. We both were locked in a room, forced to apologize. It was hilarious, now that I think about it."
Willow nodded. "That's good. So, how is it going with her, anyway?"
Kenzie laughed.
"Oh, that's perfect!"
"It's good, actually," Hunter replied. "How's it with Leo? He's annoying, isn't he?"
Leo grinned.
"I know, right? We still hated each other, but we pretended we adored each other just to escape."
"He's been great, actually. If anything, I'm probably the one annoying him," Willow laughed.
"Well, it seems like all that pretending paid off, then," Kenzie pointed out, smiling.
Hunter looked shocked.
"He's been great? That guy can annoy literally the whole world!" he exclaimed. "I don't know how I survived."
"We became close after his fall out with Jordan," Leo said. "I was really shocked when he came to me that day. Like, we fought in every meeting ever."
Willow shrugged. "Yeah, well, maybe you just don't know how to handle him."
"Did he ever tell you why he and Jordan stopped talking?" Kenzie asked.
Hunter raised his eyebrow.
"I've known him for eight years. I think I know how well I can handle him," Hunter replied. "You, on the other hand, probably haven't even seen how he really is."
"Nah, not all of it," Leo shook his head. "He never told me, I never asked. I just know that his girlfriend had died, and Jordan blamed him for it. I also know that he got involved in a gang. He wanted to tell me, though. I didn't let him. Every time we mentioned his past, his eyes would turn dark and he'd revert back into his shell. I decided we'd focus on the present rather than the past. He started to get better, started to laugh a lot more."
"If you say so," Willow said disbelievingly. "I guess we'll find out sooner or later."
Kenzie nodded. "Yeah, that's basically what I know, too. I think he and Jordan are on somewhat better terms, now, though."
Hunter raised his eyebrows.
"Are you telling me that I don't know my best friend?"
Leo gritted his teeth.
"If I ever saw that asshole, I'll punch him in the face," he said. "He doesn't deserve Hunter. He might have been with him for a few years, but I'm Hunter's best friend."
"Oh, no, not at all," Willow replied, shaking her head. "We just might know him differently, is all."
"Mm-'kay," Kenzie said, raising her eyebrows.
Hunter shrugged.
"Fair enough," he said. "You are a girl he's trying to impress. Is it working, though?"
"Anyway," Leo grinned as if he hadn't been angry at all. He twirled Kenzie around again, dipping her slightly. "So, did you watch Infinity War?"
"Who knows? Maybe it is, maybe it isn't," Willow answered mysteriously.
"No, I haven't, yet. I'm just dying to see it, though. Have you?" Kenzie asked.
(I'm sorry, I couldn't refrain… And I haven't seen it myself, either, so no spoilers, please!)
"He may be annoying, but he's really considerate," Hunter shrugged. "So be nice to him."
"I sure have!" Leo grinned. "But I won't spoil, so don't worry. Just remember that it's amazing."
"I may be sarcastic and come off as rude sometimes, but I'm not mean or cruel," Willow rolled her eyes.
"Good," Kenzie breathed. "Willow saw it without me while I was in class the other day, so she continually tries to talk to me about it. I keep having to remind her that I haven't seen it."
"I never said you were mean or cruel," Hunter laughed. "But he's just a tiny bit sensitive."
"Wow," Leo blinked. "Hunter and I went to watch it together the day it was released. It was mind-blowing."
Willow snorted. "Mm-'kay. I'll keep that in mind, then."
"Yeah, I bet it was. Did you know that it made 112.5 million dollars in its second weekend? The only movie topping it is The Force Awakens," Kenzie recalled, having heard something about it on the radio.
Leo sighed dramatically.
"I'm not a big fan of Star Wars," he admitted. "So I hope Infinity War tops The Force Awakens."
"Yeah, I'm not really into it, either. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Infinity War beat The Force Awakens eventually. Maybe more people will buy the DVD or something," Kenzie suggested with a shrug.
"Hopefully," Leo replied.
Kenzie spotted Hunter and Willow dancing over Leo's shoulder. She smiled, noticing that Willow looked ready to be done dancing. Willow didn't really like to dance, but her parents made her take lessons when she was younger and it came in handy sometimes, which Kenzie knew wasn't all too often.
"Willow looks ready to be done," Kenzie pointed out, laughing a bit.
