The Battle of Sea Salt Bay

Antonio stood in the junkyard, waiting for the slicks to come. It was nearly midnight and no one had shown up for him. It must have been a hoax. There was no way a gang would leave him hanging. He decided to leave and forget that it never happened. Until he heard a clang. He quickly turned around to see a group of misfits standing in a row, holding bats and metal poles.

"Took you long enough." Antonio said. He rolled his eyes and crossed his arms.

Hushed whispers filled the junkyard.

"Welcome. Are you ready for initiation?" One said, walking forward.

"Uh, ok." Antonio walked toward the boy with the eye patch.

"Now, listen closely..." The boy whispered into Antonio's ear. Antonio was taken back by what the boy said. He had to do that in order to be an official member? Normally, this wouldn't be a challenge for him, but after what they said about him, it might be. He was going to have to train again in order to win. He nodded and left the junkyard.

Corrine looked at Rolo confused. Why were they talking about Ralphie and Spoon having sex? And what was with the two birds thing? Corrine started out more confused than when she started. But she didn't want to be late for her class. She pondered while walking to her next class.

While sitting in her algebra class, she strayed away from her work to figure out what Rolo was talking about. Two birds... Ralphie and Spoon.... Birds and Bees.... oh no. Everything made sense now. This whole time Rolo thought Ralphie was a girl. Boy, did she have some news for him. After school she would have to tell him.

The couple bid them a farewell and let the cafeteria, making their way to their next class. They were seen holding hands and laughing at eachother. Most people would call them a perfect couple.

Meanwhile Corrine was trying to think of what her three friends were talking about. Something about how something worked. Was Rolo making something? She tugged on Rolo's shirt.

"Rolo, Rolo, what were you talking about with Ralphie and Spoon?"

The Battle of Sea Salt Bay

Ralphie looked at eachother and back at Rolo.

"You know, like it normally does? Don't you know how it works?" Ralphie stated matter of factly.

Spoon nodded in agreement. They didn't know what Rolo was thinking about. Did he really not understand how it worked? Ralphie decided to educate poor Rolo until they saw Corrine sitting there with a very confused look on her face. She had no idea what they were talking about. Keeping their trap shut would be the best idea to preserve her innocence.

"Well, back in fifth grade, I fell flat on my face during lunch. I landed right in my pudding and became a laughing stock. Then Spoon came along and helped me clean up. After a while we started to talk, and now she's officially my girlfriend! It's been... two or three years now? Since freshmen year I think. I wouldn't have any other girl in the world!" Ralphie kissed Spoon's cheek and her face went hot like fire.

"Aw~, how cute!" Corrine sighed. They were quite the couple.

The Battle of Sea Salt Bay

Corine was curled up into a ball squealing. She couldn't believe he said all of that! In perfect detail too! Ralphie sat there, giggling to themself. Spoon seemed satisfied with the story.

Ralphie whispered into Spoon's ear, the two of them giggling. Corrine cocked her head but shrugged it off. Corrine gently leaned against Rolo and sighed happily. She kept her affection as subtle as possible. It was hard to keep their relationship a secret. But it was worth it to have a boyfriend like Rolo.

"Y-you do it... I'll just mess everything up..." Corrine stuttered. As if things weren't embarrassing enough. Although it was a rather cute story, she didn't want to say anything. She removed her curly hair and and took a deep breath.

"Well, we first met at their clubhouse. Then I couldn't stop thinking about him. Then, um, we walked up to ghost rock. Um... then we uh... and that's how we got together!" What in the world was she saying?! What possessed her to say something?! She felt even more embarrassed than before. But somewhat relieved. Something in her just floated away.

"Aw~! Corrine that's so cute! But I want details. Rolo, why don't you go?" Ralphie asked again. Spoon sat there, enjoying the entertainment that the three brought to the table.

The Battle of Sea Salt Bay

"Hey! You cant back down now! Dont worry we wont tell anyone! I mean, theres no use for this information anyway." Ralphie shrugged. Spoon seemed to be rather interested as well. Corrine kept to herself and hid herself in her hair.

"It couldn't be as bad as how Spoon and I met. Now spit it out!"

The Battle of Sea Salt Bay

Corrine took a drink but quickly spat it out. She gave Rolo a look that said "you aren't going to tell them, are you?" She thought that they were supposed to keep their relationship a secret. Then again, she gave away the secret to Spoon and Ralphie. Corrine shut her mouth and decided to listen to what Rolo had to say.

Ralphie started laughing at Spoon, who was covered in water. She let out a breathy sigh and chuckled. Corrine's face was hot with embarrassment. She didn't mean to do it. But she couldn't help it. Spoons face went from a scowl to that of a happy highschool girl. For once she wasn't scowling and looked rather cute.
