Ignorant Lovers | On Hold

Summary

Two friends, an obsession with two different things, and a reunion that happens all because of a fake relationship, a relationship that they get into. Holly Braudel and Derwin Conklin. They were the best of friends. I mean, they WERE the best of friends. You see, something happened that simply caused their friendship to split. And now comes senior year, the two reunited and they still call each other nicknames. "Koala Holly" because of her old obsession with koalas. And "Derwin Joker" since he was pretty much a Dark Knight fan and loved dressing up like the Joker. It isn't until a kiss from Derwin changes Holly, who decides to ignore it in the first place. But Derwin wonders if the two of them could become an actual item. Seems like this (almost) has the materials for a cliche story, I mean: Ex Best Friends? ✔ A Guy Friend Who's Total Ass? ✔ A Kiss That Turns Into Fake Dating? ✔ Bad Boy? ❌ Good Girl? ❌ Friends Become Lovers? Well, That's A Maybe.....

0 | Koala And Joker: A Friendship Story

Holly and Derwin were both pretty good friends. From elementary to junior high, they both went through pretty interesting phases.

Holly had a fascination with Koalas. Like, a lot. Ever since first grade, she was really into them. However, she stopped by the time she was in 7th grade. But she still has a lot of koala-related things: Hoodies, Slippers, and Old Pajamas.

And then there’s Jo-I mean, Derwin Conklin. He’s was into the Joker thanks to Holly’s older brother, Filmore, showing him The Dark Knight trilogy. The one with Christian Bale of course. He loved Heath Ledger’s Joker in “The Dark Knight” that he dressed up as it for Halloween from 2nd grade, and ending it in 8th grade. He even went as far as to dye his hair green one time.

But then something happened, and so now the two are ex best friends. They were good friends with each other until 8th grade.

So, what caused it to happen?


Holly’s POV

Oh. My. Gosh. My own (former) best friend is kissing me. What do I even do at this point? Kiss him back, use my tongue? Actually, tongues would be gross for two old friends kissing. But shit! What do I do?

Derwin backed away from the kiss and smirked. “Heh. So, you look surprised.”

I didn’t say anything. Rather, I bent down, grabbed my stuff, and walked away from Derwin.

While I was walking I could hear Derick asking me to come back, where I was going, etcetera. I’m going to just ignore the kiss and pretend that it never happened.

How did I get into this situation again?
