"Man, I can't believe we're seniors, dude! S.E.N.I.O.R-"
"I know how to spell it, Al," you laughed.
Alfred hummed, as he walked down the street, beside you. "Dude, I mean, seriously, the sun's up, the day's warm, winter's gonna be over...wait, dude, does that mean that we're going to college after summer?" The look on his face was of pure shock, making you laugh even more wildly.
"Yes, Alfred Jones, yes. You're a senior. You've been a senior for almost the past year, and after summer break, you're going to be a college freshman – is there anything more to say?"
"Wait!"
You stopped walking, suddenly. "Wait...what?"
"So...we might not see each other again, after all this?"
"Not if we go to the same college."
"Yeah...but what if we don't?" Alfred's eyes were wide, with so many emotions...and they weren't just the superficial ones, either. He seemed genuinely shocked, alarmed...and maybe even frightened...
"Al...are you okay?" You asked, slightly concerned.
"[Name]...I've been meaning to ask you something..." he trailed off, glancing upwards at you.
"Go on," you encouraged him, after he remained silent for a while.
"I know...it's still kinda...well, I mean, it IS a while away, but...would you go to the prom with me?"
"Would I go..." It took a while for your mind to process what your best friend since childhood had just asked you. Yes, you both were friends...very close friends, in fact. Yes, both of you had had different dates, and relationships, none of which had lasted. Yes, most people tended to assume wrongly that you both were a couple. Despite the deterring situation, however, you had come to be undeniably attracted to him. It was, perhaps, the mutual respect that had been built over the years between both of you, coupled with the fact that you truly appreciated his positive traits and, by now, had become used to his negative ones.
"...you're not joking, are you?"
"Why would I joke about something like this?" Suddenly, he moved forward, taking your hands in his own. "[Name]...I was going to ask you later, but I felt like...well, I don't know, but it just felt like 'now or never' to me, but-"
"Yes."
"-but I don't know how you feel, so-"
"I said yes, Al."
"-so I kinda wanted to wait a bit, y'know, to see if anyone else was gonna ask, or-"
"ALFRED! I'LL GO WITH YOU TO PROM!"
Alfred froze, comprehending the information himself.
Late at night, you received a text.
Wanna meet me at the beach off Cherry Street?
It wasn't uncommon – you had been sneaking out of your home to spend the night just chatting away with Alfred for ages. Now that you were old enough, it wasn't quite "crawl-out-the-window", granted, because your parents trusted you, but it wasn't legitimate "study-group" work, either.
So why were you blushing at this particular text?
It was probably that little text heart, ending the text.
Wanna meet me at the beach off Cherry Street?
<3
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street,
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet,
We were both 18, and it felt so right,
Sleeping all day, staying up all night.
"I know how to spell it, Al," you laughed.

America x Reader: Across The Sea
You sigh as you lay in your bed feeling depressed. You knew it had been his choice all those months ago, but it still hurt. You had begged him not to go and join. Who knew if he would come back? The chances were not that great truthfully. You bite your lips and grip a pillow to your gut feeling a twist in your stomach. You couldn't think in such a morbid way.
Your boyfriend had joined the armed forces. He was a soldier in the United States army and it hurt. He hadn't cared to hear your complaints and pleads. It wasn't that he didn't care how you felt, but he had his mind set. He was going to fight and 'do his duty to his country' as he had s

CanadaxReader: Haunted Avenue
You stepped in front of your mirror, checking out your costume. You were dressed as a punk rock rabbit* for Halloween and you had to say for a completely improvised costume idea, you looked awesome. You smiled, adjusting your black lacey bunny ears and pulling on a studded black belt. You wanted to look your best for tonight. You, Alfred, and your long time crush Matthew were all going to Haunted Avenue for Halloween. Every year, the local theme parks would deck out the entire park in spooky decorations and hired actors to walk around the park and scare visitors. You always had fun going and watching Al freak out but you were a little more e

GreecexReader: The Beach
The sky was a clear blue and you could feel the sand between your toes. You clung to the rocks as you clambered over them. Looking above you, you could see the arch of the cliff over your head. The water lapped at your feet and you carried on, exploring the beach.
Looking back you could see Feliks flirting with two guys. 'Sorry Feliks but not for me', you thought as you carried on round the rocks. Your eyes widened in surprise as you rounded the corner, only to find an empty, sheltered patch of beach. Hopping down of the rocks you landed in the waves. You'd misjudged how deep the water was and it game up to your waist. The waves came rushing
