Sin High
Chapter 2 – Treat Others how you want to be Treated
"E-Envy, wait..."
"Shhh.."
"I-I don't know if I can-"
"It's all right, you'll do fine..."
"O-okay..."
Envy ran his hands down Ed's hot torso, kissing down his jaw line expertly. Ed kept squirming under him, not used to the sensations; it was quite the turn on...
"Envy... ah..."
"You're doing fine, koi.."
Envy's wandering hands felt every inch of skin presented to him, while his lips eagerly followed. Electric pulses run down his spine as Ed fastened his strong hands on Envy's shoulders for security. Envy moved up and locked his lips with the younger teen, loving the noises he extracted with the gesture. Ed tried to give a little back by trailing his fingers along Envy's shoulder blades, the motion hidden behind the older teen's long hair.
"You see Edo, you know what you're doing..."
"I don't, I'm just a quick learner.."
"Lets see how much I can teach you then.."
Envy looked Ed straight in the eye with a special smile reserved only for him, and lazily trailed his hand down Ed's stomach until he reached the blonde's tight leather pa-
RRRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGG!
Envy shot right up in bed, at the same time automatically hitting the alarm on his radio-clock. He glanced around sleepily, trying to make sense of his surroundings.
Seeing no one, and quickly gaining familiarity of his own damn room, he stretched harshly, showing off his deceptively thin and wiry body to no one.
Then the images of his dream hit him full on.
"What the fuck..." He whispered, eyes wide. He'd dreamt of that new kid... intimately. He was a sexually-active person, he'd been laid plenty of times. But never, not once, had he ever dreamed of someone like that.. Especially not someone he'd only known for a few hours.
"Must have had some bad coffee last night..." He muttered. Not one to smoke or do drugs, he usually pounded sugar and caffeine into his system for the hell of it. Tasted good, anyways.
Brushing it off as a whack drink, he got out of bed and made his way to the bathroom, buck-naked. Doing what every person does in the bathroom in the morning, he finished up about twenty minutes later, all the while not giving a second of mind-time on the subject of his dream, (which, by the way, he would remember quite clearly if he reflected on it.).
A black skort and tank-top later, he sat himself down to a full and nutritious breakfast of cold pizza. Chewing thoughtfully, then he mulled over the events of his unconscious mind.
'So... I'm subconsciously wanting to screw that new kid... Gotta admit, being on top of him was quite a nice feeling.. Wonder what it is about him... What was his name again?' Envy tapped himself on the head with his knuckle, trying to recall the name. He remembered it a few seconds later as "Edward", and then recalled himself calling the boy "Edo" in his dream.
"Sou... 'Edo', huh? Guess I'll see you today, chibi. Wonder what you'll say when I tell you about this..." Envy grinned. He loved messing with people…
"So when we look at the twenty-third figure here, it follows the chain reaction when-"
Envy felt like his brain was melting in his skull. He could practically feel the boredom drooling out of his ears. Havoc-sensei was drawling on about thermodynamics, which they were just touching upon today. They would be moving on to a simple experiment with heat and light next. But until then, they had to sit though one of Havoc's rare, but long-winded lectures (of which notes were to be taken, but damn if Envy so much as raised a pencil).
This rant needed a comedy intermission.
Envy leaned forward subtly and whispered, "Ne.. Guess what?"
Ed turned his head slightly to the side to show that he was listening, but without giving any indication to their sensei that he was not paying full attention.
"I had a dream about you last night." Envy whispered, grinning. Ed's eyes widened, but he made no more indication of surprise. What was that supposed to mean?
"I was on top."
The sound of a desk being forcibly pushed forward rang out in the classroom. Everyone's attention was quickly focused on poor Ed, who was staring at Envy, horror-stricken, from his desk that was pushed away from the source of his shock in a rush. Envy was grinning unabashed at the younger teen, and Marcus was trying very unsuccessfully to quell his laughter. Being right beside Envy in the all-but-one-person-silent room had allowed him to hear every word Envy said.
"Edward, is something wrong?" Havoc asked, quickly deducing that Envy had said something to shock the poor boy.
"Uh," Ed stammered, "Uh, I need to, use the washroom. Yeah, I need to go now. Sorry." He all but ran out of the room, face completely red. A few seconds after he'd left, the whole class exploded into laughter.
"Oh shit! Envy, dude what did you say!" Some guy near Envy laughed. Before he could reply though, Havoc was yelling at the class to calm them down. Once the ruckus was quieted mostly, he asked, rather angrily,
"Envy, I don't know what you said to him, but you're coming after school to let me in on the big joke, okay? Detention if you don't come." He snarled. He just knew sitting Ed there would cause a problem..
"I'll tell you what I said to him now, if it'll save us both the trouble. I told him I had a naughty dream about him, that's all. It was quite a hot one too.." He sneered. Plenty of people laughed heartily at the comment, and others grinned half-heartedly or not at all. Not everyone supported Envy's choice of sexuality you know. He was school-known for being Bi, and proud of it. (And no one messed with him about it since last year some guys had challenged him over it and he wiped the halls with them.)
Havoc was pissed, how dare Envy say such a thing to the new student! Whether or not it's true, he shouldn't say things like that just to get a reaction and disturb the class!
"Envy, get out, and tomorrow, you and Shuun are switching places." Havoc said, pointing to the door. Shuun, a smart-looking stereo-typical computer-geekish guy sank lower into his seat when some other seniors laughed at him for being switched with Envy. Shuun was on the other side of the room, but still in the middle of the class, where Havoc liked to keep an eye on Envy without looking like a coward.
Envy got up and went to walk out the door, but turned to the class and dipped low into bow, earning some sarcastic applause. He waltzed out the door with a final, "Go!" from his teacher, and merrily paced down the hall for some distraction to kill time until his next class.
"Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!" Ed snarled to himself in the bathroom mirror. He splashed more water onto his face. "It was just a joke! Why are you getting so worked up about it!"
"Actually, I think the question here would be, why are you talking to yourself?" Someone said as they left a stall. Ed turned around in surprise. He'd though he was alone in here..
A tall, blonde teen walked up to a sink and washed his hands. Ed pouted at being caught thinking out loud. "What was the joke?"
"Huh?" Ed turned, looking at the other teen.
"What was the joke?" He repeated. Ed flushed. "Uh.. It's kind of embarrassing.."
"Lay it on me, I'm a freshman here, so I'm getting my fair share of pranks." The teen said and he turned around and leaned on the sink.
"You're grade nine! Wow... You're so tall..." Ed said out loud, feeling a little jealous. The other teen shrugged. "So what happened?"
Ed pouted as he watched the ground. "Just, this guy in my physics class... He said.. something really.. strange. And I freaked out in front of the whole class. It was just a joke too." The tall blonde teen smirked, nodding.
"Ah. Must have been quite the comment. Is it so bad that you can't tell me?" He asked, amusement lacing his voice.
"He said he had a... an intimate dream about me... and he said it so.. confidently..." Ed muttered. The other guy chuckled, and Ed glared at him. "What's so funny?"
"Are we talking about Envy-sempai, by any chance?" He asked. Ed looked shocked. "You know him?" He asked.
"I've heard of him. He's kinda famous at the school. But.. You said this happened in class. Does this mean you have a class with him? I thought you were a freshman, like me."
Ed shook his head. "No, well, sort of. I've been skipped a few years in school, and I'm in grade twelve."
The other teen looked mildly surprised. "Really? Wow. That's impressive. How old are you?"
"15. I started school late though, so without the skips, I'd be in grade nine too."
The taller teen nodded. "So you're older than me." Ed thought on that and deduced that the other was 14, the regular grade nine age. He was again jealous of the height difference.
"Hey, what's your name?"
"Edward. Edward Elric."
"Russell Tringham." Russell put his hand out, and they shook on their greeting.
"So. How do you like this school? Mr. Twelve-grader?"
"I just transferred here yesterday, so I haven't even begun to get used to it."
"Wow, that's harsh. At least I've gotten used to how things go around here."
Ed grinned good-naturedly. "Maybe you could show me around sometime."
"I don't know this place that well, but I could try a tour sometime." Russell said, grinning a bit.
"Okay."
After Russell and Ed had said their goodbyes, Ed returned to class, although he was just slightly hesitant to. Seeing that Envy wasn't there, he felt a little relieved. Upon his arrival, Havoc had told him that Envy was being moved and he should talk to a teacher if he felt he was being bullied. Blushing furiously at the direct advice from the teacher in front of the whole class, Ed sat down and ignored the rest of the students. He wasn't going to hear the end of this for a while...
A period and a bit later found Ed trying to find the lunchroom. He'd found it yesterday without much trouble, but mainly because he'd followed the crowd of students heading that way. His second period, Medical-Physical Education, the one right before lunch though, had been extended in his case because he had asked a few very trying questions and even the teacher had taken a while to answer them. This all happened after class, so about ten minutes of his (rather long) lunch break was shaved off. And as a result:
There was no one in the halls to follow to the caf.
So, Ed wandered around until he finally caved in and asked for directions. Thankfully, the girls he'd asked gave him the correct directions instead of phony ones and he made it within reasonable time. After gaining a platter of food, he went off to sit at a deserted table up against the wall near a window.
Thing is, when one eats food, and sits in the sun at lunch table that has benches instead of chairs and is right against the wall, ready to be leaned against, one tends to get sleepy. So, a little while before the lunch break was over, one could look over at the wall and see a short blond boy fast asleep, lying full-out on the bench.
That's how Envy found him.
"Hey look Envy, it's your boyfriend!" Marcus laughed, pointing to the unsuspecting chibi.
"Shut up, he's not my boyfriend. But he is perfectly venerable at the moment..." Envy said with an evil grin. He sauntered over to Ed forming a quick plan in his head. Oh, his little play-torturing of the new kid was so much fun..
Because of Envy's flashy appearance, a huge part of the cafeteria was already focusing on him. But his apparent target, another student, was gaining him more and more attention. When Envy got over to the sleeping teen, most of the students were watching him. Envy lightly nudged Ed's arm, and got no response.
At this point, everyone in the cafeteria had realized that Envy was going to pull some kind of amusing stunt, as he was famous for, and a stifling silence swept the room. Everyone wanted to see what fun would come from this.
Envy, very aware of his audience, grinned at random people, and set his plan into action. He snaked his arm around Ed's shoulders, and another around his head, and slowly lifted the top half of his small body up off the bench. His head had been resting against his bag, which leaned against the wall. Envy was careful not to knock this off.
The caf was deathly silent, everyone had somehow found a place to watch the spectacle. Some people were standing on tables, even.
Finding his hold on the smaller teen secure, and glad he was a semi-deep sleeper, Envy slowly slipped into the place Ed had been lying on. Many giggles were rippling through the crowd, as most of the onlookers were getting the general idea of the joke.
Obtaining the seat, and still not waking the teen in his arms, Envy used every bit of stealth and water-smooth movement he could muster to bring his legs up and ease them under the other teen's legs. Successfully getting on the bench, and keeping Ed on top of him, he shifted so that he was leaning up against the wall, at steeper angle than Ed had previously been in, so he wasn't leaning on Ed's bag. The entire caf and every person in it held their breath.
Envy lifted an arm and indicated to the crowd that the real fun would begin. Lowering his arm, he brushed some of the golden bangs out of his prey's face, and then laid his arm across Ed's waist. He then whispered to the younger teen.
"Ne... Edo... Wake up..."
Ed breathed in deep, arching back in a would-be stretch. He foggily remembered falling asleep in the caf, but why was it so quiet? Did he miss the bell?
Ed opened his eyes and blinked a few times to clear the fuzzies from sleep. He quickly realized that everyone was staring at him, most grinning or suppressing chuckles. It took him a moment, but he finally noticed that he was being held. Held by pair of strong arms and resting on a warm, taunt body-
"Hey there Edo."
"WHAAAA!" Ed half-leapt half-fell in his haste to get off the older teen, causing him to hit the floor painfully. The room was in an uproar, many people bent over and clutching their sides. Ed had never felt so humiliated in his life.
"Oh my god, your face was priceless! You're hila-"
-SMACK-
The strike seemed to echo off the walls as the room fell silent.
Envy was shocked; he seemed to stare at the table wide-eyed, where his face had been redirected after the forceful hit. Ed grabbed his bag that Envy was leaning over, and turned around and stalked off, bee-lining for the door. Tears were inching down his beet-red face.
Envy gained back his senses a moment later as whispers and low voices took over the silence.
What the hell? WHAT THE HELL?
Envy couldn't believe it! HE, had just been slapped. He had NEVER been slapped! In all his history of pranks, jokes, relationships, and general attitude and living of life, he had never, ever been slapped. He's been hit, punched, beaten, you name it, but a slap had never graced his skin before.
It hurt. It hurt alot. But not just the blow. There was something more, a pain that erupted deep in his head that was not physical.
But it didn't matter now.
It didn't matter at all.
Getting up, face distorted in rage, people hurried away in fear.
Envy Was On The Hunt.
Cat: Oh my GOD! I'm gonna end up killing Edo at this rate!
Kit: Holy shit... He's pissed...
Seira: I can hear the chanting now...
Cat: I even made this a cliffie.. My readers are gonna maul me...
Phoenix: The smart ones will not. Such acts will delay your progress on this fic, will it not?
Kit: Quit speaking smart..
Cat: Oh My God! You're right! No one can touch me if it means the halting of the fic! Wh00t!
Seira: What about the ones that 'aren't smart'?
Cat: ... Shit...
Alright, so we've got a humiliated Edo, and a pissed off Envy. What's gonna come of this? Find out soon, and with each review, I work just a little faster! Stay tuned!
R&R!
