Yaaay! Chapters for the people! X3 (Sorry for taking so long...)
Let's get this story going, shall we? :D
Lifty sees the back of a very familiar brown haired boy who is standing about fifty meters away from Lifty, making out with some random girl. Lifty doesn't have to see the face to know it is that dickhead Troy. A guy who switches girl like one would switch socks.
Troy and Lifty hated each other more than what's healthy. It started with just teasing when they were 8, in second grade. Troy would tease Lifty for being an orphan, poor, antisocial and what not. As they grew older the teasing turned into bullying and beating. One day in sixth grade Lifty had had it and when Troy said something about Lifty's mother being a whore he punched Troy so hard he had to get his lower lip stitched. Ever since they both made their best to irritate or mess with each other. It was almost like a game of tag; when Troy does something Lifty has to get back on him and then Troy will have to do the same and this is how it goes on.
Lifty does not want to think about Troy right now.
He just want to go back home and hide under his covers for the rest of the week to sulk and he probably would if it wasn't for the important meeting with his 'sensei' today. He bites his lip, suppressing the urge to throw anything at Troy and starts walking in opposite direction. Everything seems so pointless right now. He is going to meet with this psychologist and good friend as soon as possible to get these bad thoughts under control.
'I wonder...why I'm still doing that shit...'
Lifty bites his lip while thinking and heads for his locker. Sure he's the whole reason to this 'break up' and wants to do everything in his power to fix it all again. He was fine until two months ago. Why is he suddenly feeling the urge to steal again after such a long time? Lifty thinks. To describe it simply: It's like smoking, even if you manage to break free you might as well start after some time. Missing the adrenaline and not being ready for a serious relationship. Don't get me wrong, he loves Nutty to no end but it did go a little fast. They should have taken their time and not make love after just a few days. At least this is what Lifty thinks might be the problem. This is his first relationship after all, so he don't know how anything works. He never even watches movies about stuff like this. In fact, how relations might work has never even crossed his mind until recently.
Pondering over this does not seem to make Lifty any wiser.
Is it best for Nutty not to get together with him again? 'I think I might be psychotic...' Lifty states to himself. Due to being in deep thought for the moment he, as usual, doesn't watch his steps and ends up on the floor with someone landing on him. This is how he usually starts off the school year, every year since fourth grade.
'Did I crash into someone again?' He thinks and covers his face embarrassed.
He eventually removes his palms and chokes on air when he realizes it's Flippy lying on top of him, calmly, though somewhat surprised, looking back at him.
When Lifty can feel his cheeks getting hot he quickly looks to the side to avoid the other boy's beautiful green eyes.
"How come every time we meet it starts with you tripping over me?" Flippy chuckles and gets off.
Lifty turns even redder because of the other boy's playful, but true, comment. Flippy seems to be some kind of magnet since he's the one he always crashes into.
"Oh! I'm s-sorry, F-Flippy!" Lifty stutters without looking at the camouflage wearing boy.
"Hehe, Am I really that difficult to spot? It must be my clothes then." Flippy jokes.
"N-no, not at all...you're a-actually very conspicuous..." Lifty gets big eyes and slaps himself mentally for what he said.
Flippy chuckles and helps Lifty to his feet.
"And you always say the funniest and cutest things." The taller boy states as he brushes Lifty off.
'C-cute...?' Lifty thinks with his mouth slightly opened.
"Well, see you then." Flippy said and walked off.
'He...he thinks I'm...cute...?' Confused, Lifty glances at Flippy before he disappears around the corner. '...what the hell..?' Lifty puts a hand on his hot cheek and starts walking. As if he needed more to think about.
[Nutty]
All the new attention Nutty receives from people as he passes them is very confusing to the boy. The one called Disco Bear, because of his "disco king attitude" and love for beautiful girls, Even gave him a whistle. Everyone was acting strange all of a sudden. Last year they barely noticed him and now this? Nutty looks at his purple converse and frowns confused. He's stopped by Sniffles who stares at him shocked.
"Nutty? Is that really you?" The blue haired boy asks and adjusts his big glasses.
"Yeah...last time I checked..." Nutty answers and looks at himself jokingly.
Sniffles stares and blinks a few times. He leans closer to get a better view.
"What happened to you?" Sniffles asks.
Nutty rises an eyebrow.
"Uh...I guess ya're referrin' to ma new looks?...well...I dunno" Nutty shrugs and pats his hip.
"But...you look so...girly" Sniffles mumbles.
"Ya really think so?" Nutty asks and plays with his hair in an insecure way.
"N-not that you don't look good or anything! Y-you look quite lovely...er...I mean..." Sniffles goes on.
Nutty holds back a flattered giggle and pats the other boy's head.
"Hihi, I get it. Well see ya later, gotta go." Nutty smiles friendly and heads for his English class.
Nutty sits down at a bench next to the wall and immediately leans against it. He lazily puts his feet on the seat next to his.
The teacher isn't there yet and knowing their English teacher he probably wont be for at least a couple of minutes.
Nutty thinks about what sniffles said earlier. About him looking pretty. 'That's why they're all lookin' at me like that...' He thinks and picks out a bubble gum which he puts in his mouth. He don't know if he likes it or not. Sure it's flattering but he can't help but to feel a little awkward about it all. It's absurd. He was barely noticed by anyone except his closest friends until now when everyone notices him. He decides to shrug it off since he doesn't want more to think about than he already has to.
There we go!
Review children of the night! ;)
