This is my teenlock fanfiction. The chapters will be short, but my updates may come quicker because it's summer and school's out. I hope you all review and enjoy. The first chapter is really quick but I wanted one just for the first time John sees him. R&R!
The first time John saw him, he was being laughed at. It was a mean, hateful, spiteful laughter. The kind you never want to hear.
He was a strange boy. Tall, thin, curly black hair. His cheekbones were unusually high and he wore a coat and scarf over his clothing though it wasn't cold in the school. John found himself curious. The boy seemed exciting, dangerous. John didn't admit it to himself, but he thirsted for danger. Adventure. That was why his parents had sent him to this school after all.
The boy ignored the laughter. His eyes were focused on his mobile phone. John recognized the strategy. The boy was waiting for the bullies to get bored. It worked, and the laughing boys soon walked away with parting jeers.
As John walked towards the strange boy, he noticed a paper taped to his back. John could barely make out what was written on it- "Fuck me, I'm a faggot." He felt a surge of remorse for the boy.
Even when John stood immediately behind him, the boy still didn't look up.
"Uh...you have a kick me sign on your back," John muttered, red faced.
"No." The boy still didn't look up.
"What?"
"No. That's not what it says."
John simply stood there for a second.
" So...do you...want me to take it off for you?" John stammered, uncertain.
"Why?" The boy finally looked up at him, and John caught his breath. His eyes were a beautiful shade of blue-green, but they were so cold. Uninviting. Closed off.
"So they don't get the satisfaction." John answered.
"Do you honestly think that would help anything?" The boy said curtly, standing up and starting to walk out of the room.
"Wait! I don't even know your name!" John yelled after him.
The boy stopped for a moment and without turning around said, "Sherlock Holmes. But I daresay you would have learned it on your own soon enough."
