Chapter 3 is now up. Have fun!


Chapter 3

Dirk's POV

Dirk glanced out the window. It was lightly raining. Dave and I are gonna have fun walking home, he thought, smirking, especially if it gets harder.

It had been a month since school had started, and Pasora, (called the rainbow girl occasionally when not there in person and PZ when spoken to), had become very accustomed to life.

On the other hand, almost half of the male populous of the school had not grown accustomed to her. Dirk suspected even his little brother might be thinking things. If Dirk himself weren't dating Jake, he might even be attracted as well.

Speak of the devil, he thought, as both Jake and Dave walked in to the empty classroom Dirk was eating lunch in.

"Hey Bro," Dave greeted. Dirk waved a hand. Jake wandered over to him.

"Do you always eat lunch in here?" he asked as he sat down. Dave walked to the bookshelf and started looking at books, but he was obviously eavesdropping.

"Occasonally. Sometimes you just gotta, like, get away for sometime. From everything. You know?"

Jake nodded. "I know what you mean. Especially..." He trailed off.

"What?"

"Oh, never mind."

"Jake."

"It's nothing!"

"Jake! I know you better than that." Dirk took Jake's hand.

Jake sighed and lowered his voice. Dave seemed to lean closer. "Well, I have reason to believe that Ms. Crocker has a, well, a thing for me."

Dirk laughed. "You just noticed this now?"

Jake raised an eyebrow confusedly. "What?"

"Dude, she's kind of made it obvious." Dirk's face softened. "But I get it. Don't worry."

Jake smiled.

"Are you two quite done yet?" Dave was looking at them. "Holy shit, this is ridiculous. Why don't you just get it over with and start making out?"

Dirk was very glad for his shades. Dave couldn't see the look of pure hatred in his eyes. "You're just jealous that you don't have a boyfriend to moon over." He smirked. "Oh, but I forgot about your little crush." His smirk widened to a grin as Dave blushed.

Jake looked quizzically at Dirk.

"He's not my crush. Oh. My fucking. God."

"Oh really? I'm pretty sure Egbert's pretty high on that list of crushes you have." Man, Dirk loved to tease his brother.

Dave opened his mouth, but then he just stomped out of the room. Dirk smirked after him. "Finally, some peace and quiet."

Jake grinned. 'You're quite horrible to him, you know that right?" he said, reaching up to smooth down Dirks hair.

"Yeah... I know I am. It's just so much fun to tease the guy, you know?" He pushed his glasses up.

Jake laughed. "No, I don't, but I'll take your word for it."


John's POV

John turned. "Hey Dave, when's the dance?"

The blond turned to look at him. "If it's at the same time as last year, just a week or so. Why?"

"Just wondering."

Roxy grinned at them. "Who are you boys gonna ask?"

"I dunno." Actually, John kind of had a feeling he did know who he was gonna ask, but he wasn't sure how they would react, or whether he actually would ask them. There was a very high chance the person would say no.

Dave smirked at Roxy. "Oh, I know who I'm gonna ask. If no one asks me first."

Roxy perked an eyebrow.

"Oooohhh? Who ya gonna ask?"

"I'm not gonna tell you."

"Whyyyy? Are they in the room?"

"Maybe."

John and Dave walked away to go to their next class, and John turned to Dave. He just flat out asked, "Are you gonna ask Roxy to the dance?"

Dave looked at him, his eyebrows shooting up. "Huh? No. Why, do you want to?"

John shook his head. 'Well, no. I'll probably just go alone. You just seemed kind of cagey."

Dave shrugged. "Here's my class. See you later."

"Yeah."

John walked away. He could've sworn that was it. Oh well.


Alright. That last part was kind of just filler fluff, but is a hint of something that will come into play later. *eyebrow lift eyebrow lift*

Also, yes Dave is gay, and yes he has a crush on John. Because I love Hammertime so much, it should be illegal. :p

Alright! Bye!
