Long Wished Love

Four childhood friends  Tyson, Lily, Benjamin, and Jack had taken a vacation after having their finals. They were now in the middle of hiking. They had already hiked for about 4 hours and now were very tired. They had a long day behind them. They were now in search of a resthouse. After restless hours of hiking without any breaks, they finally came up to a hotel.

"Oww…my feet are aching…" Tyson complained. 

Lily, having a lifelong crush on Tyson, smiled at his childish whining. "Come on Tyson! I'll race you there!" And with that, she took off at a quick pace, despite the fact she was tired from hiking for so many hours. 

"Hey! Come back here you little minx!" Tyson shouted, playfully chasing after her.

"What is with those two?" Jack thought out loud. Benjamin was probably the least dense when it came to love in the group. He had a good hunch that Lily had liked Tyson ever since they become friends. How she would always flirt with him, and even steal quick stares at him. Not only that, but he also guessed that Tyson had felt the same way about her. He noticed how Tyson was always willing to help Lily, encourage her before her debates, flirt back, as well as staring at her. Benjamin smiled and lightly chuckled.

 "It's something you'll understand better when you're older Jack."

Jack frowned, not understanding what Benjamin had meant, but shrugged it off.

The two had walked into the hotel after the other two challenged each other to their friendly race. As the sliding doors opened, it revealed Lily directly on top of Tyson. Both of them were laughing like crazy, not even noticing Benjamin and Jack watching them with interest.

Benjamin smirked. "Guys? I think that's enough."

The two teens looked up at Benjamin and blushed furiously. The two quickly got to their feet and looked away from one another. "Let's just go get our room," Tyson said, trying to change the subject.

"Ok…if you insist," Benjamin replied.

The four walked up to the women behind the counter. "Hello and welcome to the Hotel Larouse. How may I help you?"

"We're here to get a room," Tyson announced, "We're here to get a room with 4 beds," Tyson

"Alright! Here you go! I hope you enjoy your stay here!" The women sent the Black haired boy

a quick smile as she handed him the room key.

"Thank you!" Tyson and Lily said in unison.

"Are you two a couple?" The Women abruptly blurted out.

"WHAT?" The two exclaimed, setting their gaze towards the ground.

"Well are you? I just had to ask because you two look so cute together!"

"N-No…we're just friends," Tyson stuttered. Lily sighed. "Yeah…just friends."

"Oops! My mistake…But are you sure?" The two teens blushed and ran from the her, in a desperate attempt to avoid more embarrassment. In an awkward silence, the duo walked around the hotel and eventually found their room.

"Let's see…oh! Here it is!" Tyson triumphantly said as he unlocked the door. As he was trying to

put the key in the lock, Lily began to stare at him. "…Gosh…he is so handsome…" Little did she know, she began to stare for a bit too long than she intended to and just ended up being frozen in place.

"Um…Lil? Lil? Lily!" Tyson snapped. Lily broke from her trance. "Huh what? Oh! Sorry Tyson!" She said as she began to blush.

Tyson smiled. "It's no prob, Lil. Let's go inside and wait for them."
