Plenty of Curtis to go around

The next day

"This was a bad idea. I feel weird", Billy said, his body tensing up from being uncomfortable. 

"You stop being weird", Curtis reprimanded.

"But people have been staring", Billy complained. 

A cool evening breeze blew in their faces, the golden hues of a sun set were slowly being replaced by the darkness. The street lights automatically lit up detecting the night falling. True to Billy's words, passers-by stole glances at the three boys. 

Curtis spotted a jeans and a short sleeved shirt with the top buttons undone to expose his smooth chest, Billy wore shorts and a shirt too whose buttons were undone by Curtis, while Ashton wore cargo pants and a t-shirt. 

"And haven't you learned that it's a good thing to be stared at? This is college, not highschool", Curtis grumbled.

"Not everyone has your confidence Curtis", Ashton spoke. He too was feeling uncomfortable with the stares.

Curtis stopped in front of them and placed a hand each on their shoulders with a proud look. "Boys, I have to say that this is the best we've looked since we started school. Tonight, we become real men! I'm talking booze and some serious getting laid!" 

"You had me until the getting laid part", Ashton grimaced. 

"Don't be a wuss!" Curtis mocked.

"You're a wuss!" Ashton bit back.

 "This barber really did his job!" Billy blurted out as he admired his reflection through his phone, stunning his friends with how quickly he changed opinions.

The three had gotten the same haircut, shaving the sides and the back of their heads leaving Billy with short brown hair that gave off a bad boy look, Curtis' blonde bangs and a slit on his brow giving off a player vibe, and Ashton's malicious curls framing his face in bangs giving off a mysterious vibe. 

The enhanced good looks easily buried their previous boyish looks. In Curtis's words, they went from highschool kids to college boys with just the haircut. He opened his mouth to remind them of this fact when an excited squeal was heard from behind them.

"Oh my gosh! He's so hoooot!!" 

"He's soooo perfect!!!"

"How can a man like this exist?!"

"I think I found my husband!" 

"No he's mine!! I call dibs!" 

"He probably has a girlfriend!"

Curtis smirked at this sound, feeling pumped by the admiration OBVIOUSLY directed at him. Do they really have to fight over him like this? And he was single, ready to mingle. How excited would they be if they learned of this?

He turned to face the girls walking behind them with a helpless smile on his face, "Ladies, no need to fight. There's plenty of Curtis to go around."

"Is he talking to us?" The girls stopped, taking him in with awkward expressions.

The boys: "..."

"What a weirdo!" Another grumbled before the girls walked past them and continued looking at their phones.

"Claude is so hot!! I'm going to check if he has Instagram and follow him", another making the rest squeal with excitement.

"Pwa ha ha ha!!" Ashton and Billy bellowed in laughter seeing their friend look green with embarrassment. 

"Aaaaah!" Another excited squeal was heard from girls passing by. "Claude is literally the definition of hot and sexy!!"

"Oh my gosh! Someone just made a Claude Walker edit!!" 

The girls squealed as they oogled at their phones, excitedly scrolling through. Who is this Claude Walker person? Was he new on campus? A humiliated and irritated Curtis fished out his phone. Where would he start? Tik tok. He opened it only to find the name on top of the trending searches. Curious, he tapped on it. 

"Whoa", he muttered in astonishment.

Ashton and Billy exchanged a look before walking over to take a peek. Their eyes widened and they leaked out their own astonished, "Whoa."

A man appeared on the screen, he looked tall, he wore a velvet black tux snug to his muscular frame. His midnight back hair was neatly styled back and a strand fell onto his brow giving his neat appearance an unruly vibe. But this was not what amazed the boys.

He was walking on a red carpet with his entourage of burly men in black suits. Cameras flashed trying to get his face but he didn't stop for any pictures. It was not sure whether it was coincidental or intentional, he suddenly turned his head and his gaze made contact with the camera. 

Even through the screen, he looked brash as his chiseled good looks came into view. His intoxicating grey orbs held no warmth, but they easily sent one's heart into overdrive and sent a pleasant shiver down one's spine. 

The editor deliberately slowed down this part because he looked away in the next second. This point easily earned her video more than a million views and likes, less than half an hour after she posted.

"Who's he?" Billy managed, in a trance.

"He's cool", Ashton and Curtis murmured in unison.

Some giggles were heard and excited squeals. A bunch of girls passed by them, eyes glued on their phones as they watched the same edit. Curtis's expression grew dark from envy. He made an effort to look good only to be put down by some unknown celebrity. His gaze wandered to the girls' outfits. They wore skimpy outfits, leaving an alluring sight for Curtis to take in.

"Forget this guy!" He took the phone back from his friends, determination reappearing in his eyes. "We are men with a mission. Tonight, we're ALL getting some!"
