Fool for You [M4F] [Prankster x Class President Listener] [Former Friends to Lovers] [Playful]

Transcript

Hey, Ms. Class Prison, been looking for you. How's your day been? Oh, hey, hey, now, slow down a bit.

Geez, ignore a guy like that. You might offend him, you know. At least hope you'd stop for an old friend.

What are you even in such a rush for? Giving the silent treatment now, are we? Look, I know we don't talk nearly as much as we used to, but why don't we just take a moment to stop, so we can hopefully sort all this business out, all right?

Ah, finally, oh, from the looks of it, you seem ready to pop a blood vessel. What's this even about, anyway? Surely it's not that bad, right? Oh, hey, wait a minute, what's this in your hand? Let me see.

Yoink! Ah, don't worry, I'll give it back as soon as I'm done with it. Now let's see, uh, hey, a car magazine.

Didn't take you for a car nut. Oh, it's not yours. What, you take this from some random kid or something? I know the rules are getting stricter and admittedly sillier around here, but this is ridiculous, I don't even see anything wrong with it, anyway.

Inappropriate content. The car's too much for you or something, hm? Oh, no, no, yeah, yeah, yeah, take a look at the Corvette on page 12.

Ooh, she's a, she's a Buick, ain't she? Got a real nice frame to her, too, don't you think? Ah, no, no, wait, wait, think I see your problem here, mm, yeah, yeah, the classic bikini models in the car magazine, mm, to be freshman again.

Bet they don't even have phones yet, eh, poor kids. I just don't see what's got you so riled up, though, is it really worth all the hubbub to confiscate something like this? It's just advertisement, I could just go out onto the beach and see this, you know? It's not, it's not like you're protecting their innocence, you know, honestly, it's very, very innocent compared to what the upperclassmen have brought to the school.

Oh, no, you didn't hear that from me. My point is, you really shouldn't crack down so hard on the little things. In my humble opinion, you should really take a step back and realize that not every single rule infraction needs to be dealt with so harshly.

Look, just take the magazine back. You can do whatever you want with it after you hear me out, but please think about what I said. Anyway, man, I nearly forgot while I was here.

I really need to talk to you about something else. The guys at the computer lab wanted you to help them and sent me to come get you. They weren't really specific on what it was, but they were very, very adamant they needed the diligent class president for this.

Their words, not mine. Oh, come on, you're really gonna leave those kids to fend for themselves? You don't trust me or something? Of course these kids want you to help them, you're one of the most reliable people in school.

I mean, single-handedly solving the bullying problem will do that to your reputation, you know? I mean, fine, I guess I could help them myself. I'm just not sure if I'd do a very good job.

I get it, I get it, you're busy. I'll do my best, no worries. Now that's the class president I know.

Come on, I'll walk you over there. How long has it been since it's been just the two of us? These days it's been you, me, and whatever teacher I decide to join for that day.

We really haven't had a chance to talk between just us, have we? I mean, it's too bad, we used to be great friends. Then we entered high school, and I'm not sure what happened.

Who knows, maybe we could just talk for a bit while we go over to the lab? You want to know why I'm helping these guys? Ooh, ouch, you wound me, madam, wound me, I say.

Do you not think I would want to help my fellow man? This is not the nature of humanity to assist their neighbors. Oh, come on, not even a reaction, at least try to humor me.

Oh, oh, what's that? Are you holding back a little smirk? Oh, come on, just a bit, let it out, for old time's sake, you know you want it.

Oh, there it is, that's the smile I remember. Honestly, I feel like I haven't seen it at all these days. It's okay to lighten up a bit every once in a while, you know? Like, it's a complete mystery why we drifted apart.

We used to be two peas in a pod, two sides of the same coin. You would always laugh at my jokes when they were just terrible. And you played along with my pranks even though you could see right through them.

When we got to high school, however it's, it just got harder for us to hang out. We were practically a shoo-in for the student body from day one. Hell, it's been like, what, three years or something since you first took office? After that, all we could talk about was work.

And I could tell how exhausted it was making you. I could tell it was hard on you even. What, with the bags that were constantly under your eyes? More and more time passed and we had less and less time to talk.

And then you just, you just stopped talking to me. Yeah. Why? But that's enough about me.

I want to talk about you. How have you been holding up since we've stopped talking? You join any clubs? Maybe discover a hobby that isn't, well, this? Oh, hey, now, don't put words in my mouth.

I'm not saying what you're doing isn't important now. I've just seen how tired it made you. How tired it makes you now, even.

That's not to mention the obvious effect it had on your mood. When's the last time you've gotten sleep? Like, proper sleep.

Jeez, if I had a bottle of this, I would've. .. What am I doing? Ah, it's nothing.

Oh, we're here. Before you open that door. ..

I just need to ask. What happened to us? Why did we stop being friends? Like, if you had a problem with my pranks, I would have stopped in a heartbeat, so.

.. Why? What happened to you and me against the world? No, no, please.

You have nothing to apologize for. Man, I've made such a terrible mistake. Of course it was the damn teachers, right? They wouldn't want the class president to hang out with a delinquent.

Why would they? If anything, I seriously need to apologize. I've done something awful.

Something that would've done irreparable damage if I went through with it. For what? I'll show you.

Man, I can't believe I've been such a fool. So let me be the fool for you. Definitely have to throw away this outfit.

This is what I was planning. We were going to glue and feather you. Then the guys were going to rush us after you opened the door and, well, take photos to spread around.

Probably backed out now that I was the one opening it and, well, they know I would get them back if they tried. But that's not the point. It's something I should've never even considered.

And I'm sorry. I should've never used pranks to hurt someone like I just did. I just.

.. I don't know. I really don't know what I was thinking.

When I was alone, timid, and constantly being bullied, it was you that saved me. You cared about me more than anyone did when they abandoned me to my fate. Against all odds, you wanted to be my friend.

When you stopped talking to me, I felt that again. That sense of abandonment, I felt like the last person I felt cared about me was treating me the same as everyone else did back then. I was hurt and confused and I thought, what else could I do except double down? I kept pulling pranks, always getting sent to the principal's office, just so I could see you for, god knows how long it was.

I guess I just couldn't take the girl I have. The girl I like, treating me like I didn't exist. I didn't want you to abandon me like everyone else.
