Brian turned to look at the blonde kid from his basketball team who had just asked him that. "No. Is it a chick?" "Nah, just some goth f*g." Brian grinned. "Really?" "Yeah, he evens wears dresses." Brian laughed with blonde basketball kid. "And he has dreadlocks!" Brian made a disgusted face. "F*g is right. Anyone who has long hair, no less dreadlocks, is such a weirdo." Brian's brown hair was cut just above his ears. The conversation, which was mainly just a string of profanity-laced insults directed at the poor new kid, went on until the end of homeroom. Brian picked up his books and headed to math class./p

Jeordie, could you please come up and introduce yourself?" Brian heard a shy "y-yeah", and then the kid made his way up to the front of the classroom. He was slightly shorter than Brian himself, with black and red dreadlocks contrasting against his deathly pale skin. His eyes were big and innocent, a hazel color. Jeordie wore a cute green dress with fishnet stockings and combat boots as he played with his dreadlocks and looked down at the floor nervously./p

No... what was this feeling? It almost felt like... love... Brian took a deep breath and shook his head. He would not let this little freak turn his life upside down. He just wouldn't./p
