When The Alpha Falls
01
Outside the compus square
Holly Davison(O)
You what?
Sidney Michael (o)
What is this sister-in-law? A troll trying to steal you away from your man?!
Ezra Richardson
( I gulped looking at the two women in front. Then hurriedly pulled my gaze down I knew If I didn't my eyes would meet those of the angry crowd behinds them.) A-A-A m-misunderstanding!
Holly Davison(O)
you dare lie to me troll? Didn't you just say you liked me?
flash back to a few moments ago
A crowd of people surrounded her, the most popular girl at school, Holly Davison. Ezra watched helplessly as his best friends eyes turned into hearts while staring at her with all the adoration in the world.
Ezra Richardson
(if only you could look at me that way) Why don't you go up to her already?
Oliver White (A)
.........
Ezra Richardson
Oli? earth to oliver!
Oliver White (A)
*startled* Oh! did you say something? isn't she just perfect?!
Ezra Richardson
*hurt* Yeah.... I was saying, why don't you just confess? Rather than staying here like a creep, I think it's a good idea to tell her.
Oliver White (A)
But I'm scared of rejection.
Ezra Richardson
fine, what if I tell her for you and even if she rejects you, it will be through me? (what the hell am I saying)
Oliver White (A)
Your willing to do that for me? *touched*
Ezra Richardson
( No, say not this is a stupid idea Ezra stupid!!!!!) Y-yes
Oliver White (A)
I feel so honored having the antisocial butterfly being my wingman~~~ then sure give it your best shot, oh and do mention that I work out 3 times a week and that I have a pet cat.
Ezra Richardson
But I'm the one with the cat.
Oliver White (A)
Who are you tryna get the girl for? me or you? exactly. Now go on can't back up now~
Ezra Richardson
( I knew I made a bad decision)
02
The crowd behind Holly began throwing insults to him. Speaking about how an ugly beta like him can even think about being with their goddess. Ezra felt wronged and wanted to shout that he came on behalf of someone, but unfortunately, his tongue chose this moment to be tied. The group continued this for a few more minutes.
Holly Davison(O)
*sigh* Enough I have class to get to. *about to walk away but stops a few feet from Ezra* Next time you decide to be a wingman make sure you have your story straight.
Ezra Richardson
*sigh in relief* At least you know... I mean yes
Holly Davison(O)
Also, you can tell whoever you are representing that I don't like cowards. Next time, he should come to me personally. *walks away while the crowd follows her talking about how smart she is to have noticed that and that she is forgiving.*
Sidney Michael (o)
If you ever come near us, I'll destroy you beta!
Ezra Richardson
(Trust and believe that I don't wanna approach you guys anymore) *sigh* just one sentence, Ezra, you just needed to get one sentence out!!!
With that, Ezra went back to the dorm where Oliver was waiting for him. Ezra explained the situation.
Oliver White (A)
So you're telling me that you approached her in front of a large crowd *trying to be serious*
Oliver White (A)
Willingly, so and walked up to her with all the confidence in the world
*starts to smile slowly*
Ezra Richardson
........ Don't laugh.
Oliver White (A)
And instead of saying my friend likes you, you stammered out " I uh my uh like you". Then got cussed out for liking goddess Holly?
Ezra Richardson
*embarrassed* Yes, I did.
Oliver White (A)
*tries to hold it but ends up howling with laughter*
Ezra Richardson
*sighs* Don't laugh!
Oliver White (A)
*doubles over due to laughter*
Ezra Richardson
......... fine I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up when Rhea gets here. *stands up and walks out the room*
Oliver White (A)
wait *wheeze* Don't go *chuckles* I won't laugh anymore!!
Oliver White (A)
ah! that idiot..... *stops laughing* Hopefully, this does not leave him with a psychological scar.
Rhea Jones(B)
So you're telling me that Ez tried to be your wingman only to fail miserably? *starts laughing hysterically*
Oliver White (A)
*joins in the laughter*
Ezra Richardson
and this is what I get for having friends that share the same brain cell. *rolls his eyes*
Rhea Jones(B)
*wipes a tear from her eye* Oh, come on, don't be a wet sock, you gotta admit that's funny!
Ezra Richardson
It's funny until you realize that this whole accident makes me a social outcast, and so does it to you since you are connected to me. *huffs in annoyance*
Oliver White (A)
*still laughing* Relax with our social butterfly here. I doubt that could happen
Ezra Richardson
Your words mean nothing to me human.
Rhea Jones(B)
How about this then. *Shows him three tickets on her phone*
Ezra Richardson
*doubtful* and this?
Rhea Jones(B)
*wraps her hand around Ezras shoulder* This my dear are tickets to Matthew's party this Saturday, and all three of us are invited!!
Ezra Richardson
Matthew, as in Matthew Holly's brother?
Oliver White (A)
and seeing the time he sent this, there is no way he does not know about your little accident *trying to bait him in*
Rhea Jones(B)
So! that means you are not a total outcast yet, and if you attend this party, then we can somehow clear your name.*Hopeful* So Ez, will you attend this party with us?
Ezra Richardson
Usually, I'd say no *contemplates*
Oliver White (A)
*crossing his fingers*
Ezra Richardson
Fine, we'll go together.
Ezra Richardson
(Nothing too crazy should happen)
Who knew how much he would regret those words later.
03
Ezra Richardson
(You have got to be kidding me!)
Ezra thought as he stared at the two in front of him all dressed up. In all honesty, he wanted to cancel on them, but he knew he couldn't. Rumors spread all over the campus and the story of the beta who dared to approach their goddess that even elite alphas can never hope to have became a hot topic. He would get stares of admiration, but mostly stares that communicated the other person's desire to beat him up. So him going to the party and having Oliver confess to Holly and reveal to everyone that he was just a wingman could help elevate the situation and let him go back into being a normal side character beta.
Rhea Jones(B)
*wearing a long dusty pink cocktail dress with an upper thigh slit.* So how do I look?
Ezra Richardson
*nodds* You look beautiful in that dress. But why didn't you guys tell me that the dress code was formal?
*looks down at his famous Hoodie and sweatpants combo*
Oliver White (A)
*In a black tailored suit* Come on, who cares? it's not like you'll get kicked out or anything!
Ezra Richardson
It's legit in the dress code genius!!!! (WHY does he look so good in that suit?! I swear I can see his muscles - nope, nope, bad)
Rhea Jones(B)
If it makes you feel better, how about we find you something?
Ezra Richardson
Like what? Look as much as I want to go to this party. I can't draw more attention to myself by not following the dress code. *throws his hands up in resignation*
Oliver White (A)
*ponders for a moment* Then I'll tell my brother to bring something for you.
Rhea Jones(B)
*excited* You mean your calling him?!!!
Ezra Richardson
You think he will come?
Oliver White (A)
*proud* Of course! he loves me the most. After all, just let me call him.
Oliver stepped out to make a call to his brother and as expected the latter responded positively and wanted the size of the suit luckily he didn't need to go buy it since he had clothes of that size in his house. So with that, the man promised to arrive in no less than 15 minutes and even offered to drive them. Oliver knew his brother was being too kind and that he would have to pay him back later, but then again later, not now.
while Ezra was on the phone
Rhea Jones(B)
So he looks charming today.
Ezra Richardson
I thought I told you never to mention it again. *serious*
Rhea Jones(B)
*worried* If I don't mention it, then you'll just ignore it!!
Ezra Richardson
*rolls his eyes* It's none of your business.
Rhea Jones(B)
*scorn* None of my business? You have been in unecquired for 7 years, and I have been secretly cheering for you all this time. I would cancel last minute on dates so you two could be together, but still, you haven't done anything!
Rhea Jones(B)
*sigh* I didn't mean to shout, but all of this is frustrating. Look, today is your last chance, either confess or let go of your feelings for him because what's going on right now is not healthy.
Ezra Richardson
*sigh* Don't make it sound like I have a chance.
Rhea Jones(B)
*serious* You do-
Ezra Richardson
He's an Alpha Rhea! I'm a beta. I can't help in his heats, plus he's straight...... you're right. I should give up on him now.
Rhea Jones(B)
*hurt* Ezra you-
Oliver enters with a stupid grin on his face
Oliver White (A)
He said he's coming!! *excited*
Ezra Richardson
A man that can get things done! *fakes a smile*
Oliver White (A)
Of course and you love me for that, that's why we're best friends!!! *grins widely*
Ezra Richardson
*a slight pain in his heart* Yeah, best friend
