Title: Sunglasses

Main Character(s): Skydoesminecraft

Setting: Border Town 9 years before FTT

Summary: The reason Sky hides his eyes.

Third Person POV

Sky laughed as he walked through the small town with his friends Dawnables, Antvenom, and Aden. "Did you see how high you jumped!?"

"Shut up! It wasn't funny! You scared the crud out of me," Aden whined.

"I-I can't b-believe you actually th-thought a creeper was behind you!" Sky continued through his giggles. "They don't even spawn during the day."

"Yeah but you could still see one," the six year old protested.

"Hisssss..."

"Adam, knock it off! You already scared him half to death once," Dawn interrupted.

"Hey, what happens if you get scared half to death twice?" Ant suddenly asked.

"Holy shit! That makes no sense!" Sky exclaimed ignoring the glare he received from Dawn for swearing.

"I know right. You'd think that if you were scared half to death twice you'd be dead but you're not."

"I th-" Aden was cut off as he ran into something. He fell backwards from the force and looked up to see what he had run into. In front of him stood two teenagers both around sixteen years old. The taller of the two, the one Aden had run into, scowled. While the boy behind him grinned already knowing what was about to happen.

"Why don't you watch where you're going ya little shithead!?" The taller one shouted.

"S-sorry," Aden stuttered.

Sky stepped in front of his scared cousin. "Don't call him that you jerk!"

"Whatcha gonna do about it ya stupid freak!?" The bully asked mockingly.

"At least I have a brain," Sky retorted.

"At least my eyes are the same color."

"Hey quit making fun of my friends!" Dawn stepped forward.

"Why should I?" The bully laughed. "They're a bunch of freaks."

"Why do you always make fun of Sky's eyes but never mine?" Dawn challenged.

He smirked, put his hand under her chin, and leaned forward before whispering in her ear. "Because it makes you look beautiful. While on a guy it just looks ugly."

"Don't touch me," she hissed and smacked his hand away.

The bully laughed again. "Besides his aren't just two different colors, they're three. That makes it worse."

Shouts of Adam and Sky were heard from his friends as said boy pushed between the two bullies and ran.

"You're a bunch of dicks!" Dawn yells at them before she and her two friends take off after Sky.

Only once they reached the center of the town and had left the bullies far behind them did they stop running. They stood there for a while catching their breath. Ant looked around. "Where do you think he went?"

"I don't know," Dawn replied looking around as well.

"He might have gone back to Tyler's house," Aden suggested

Ant sighed. "At least it's a start."

A few minutes later they had arrived at Tyler's house. He greeted them as they walked in. "Hey guys! Welcome back."

"Thanks. Is Adam here?" Ant asked.

"Yeah, he came back a little while ago. He seemed pretty upset thou. Did something happen?"

"You could say that…" Dawn trailed off unsure of how to explain what happened.

"Mike and his gang again?"

Ant nodded. "Yeah… we should probably let him calm down for a bit."

Just as Ant finished his sentence Eden, Sky's other cousin and Aden's Twin, came barreling through the door. "Where's Adam?" She asked breathlessly.

"Upstairs," Tyler replied. "But I would wait a bit before talking to him." His suggestion was ignored as she ran up the stairs.

Sky's POV

'Besides his aren't just two different colors, they're three. That makes it worse.' The words repeated in my head as I ran through the town. I took a sharp right and ran into a simple oak wood and cobblestone house. I closed the door and just stood there leaning against it trying to calm down.

Tyler, the owner of the house and one of my best friends, walk out of the kitchen. He smiled. "Hey Adam! You're back early."

"Yeah," I mumbled softly without meeting his gaze. I could feel tears form in my eyes but I refused to cry.

Tyler must have noticed because his smile was replaced by a concerned frown. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I walked past him and up the stairs. I went into the guest where I've been staying. I locked the door behind me and sat on the floor with my back to the door.

Awhile later I heard the door open and muffled voices. 'Ant, Dawn, and Aden must be here.' Not long after I heard the door open again with a loud bang and Eden shout, "Where's Adam?" I didn't hear their reply but I don't need to. Seconds later I hear Eden's footsteps on the stairs. They slowed down until she came to a full stop on the other side of the door. She knocked and softly called out, "Adam."

"Leave me alone," I called back. 'Please just go. I don't want anyone to see me like this.'

"Adam, please let me in. I need to talk to you."

"No."

"Please? It's important."

"Fine." I sighed, stood up, and unlocked the door. I then sat on the bed in the back of the room. Standing in front of me Eden smiled and placed something on my head. I gasped as the world became a shade darker. "Wha?"

"They're sunglasses. I thought that they'd hide your eyes and then Mike and his friends won't have a reason to make fun of you," the young girl explained nervously. "And then you wouldn't be sad."

"Thanks Eden. Now let's go back downstairs. I think Tyler and the others are worried," I said grinning. She smiled brightly and nodded her head.
