~The Divine Love of Protection~

Chapter 2: Hero

Really, is this any way to start your first day of school? I just wanted to go to (stupid) school in peace dammit! Stupid, un-awesome boys…. picking on other kids for no good reason.

Well, I don't know what happened, but I just had to help this boy. Getting in other fights that really aren't my business was something I didn't want to do, because hey, if I'm going to be in a fight, it's going to be started by the awesome me!

But this boy… I don't know why, but I felt…..attracted to him, in a way. Last I checked, I didn't think I was gay or anything. I just… felt the need to save him from this asshole.

This, asshole, was not going to hurt this…this….this angel, dammit! The awesome me was going to make sure of that! I tightened my grip on the asshole's fist, because damn right, I was more awesome and stronger than him!

"So, like the awesome me said, you're not going to hurt him, got it?" I tried to keep myself as calm as possible. I looked into his eyes, giving him the look of death. The stupid ass boy pulled away from me, (Thank Gott! I don't have to touch him anymore!).

"D-damn, Gilbert… you always fucking ruin the fun. Fine then, kept him as your pet…. For all I fucking care!" He and his followers walked off, to whom the hell knows where, (like I care!). As he walked away, I heard him mumble something. I think he said something like, " That pussy looks to much like that fucking american, dammit..." Yeah, well screw him!

"Stupid ass Cuban….." I muttered under my breath, hoping he didn't hear. I turned around to face the helpless, adorable boy. When I did, he jumped again and the blush on his face grew to an even darker shade of red. That actually turned me on... b-but anyways….. I shook my head to get a really bad, (really good), picture of me and him doing…..something…. together…. out of my mind. Yeah, like that will ever happen.

"You okay, best bud?" I smiled as I said those words. I was really hoping he would become my awesome best bud! He sure mumbled a lot, because he kept stuttering every time he tried to talk…. but I found that to be quite cute~.

"Y-you saved m-me…. I-I don't …..k-know why… b-but thank y-you so m-much..." He was looking down as he said these words.

"Now, you shouldn't hide your face from the awesome me…" I took hold of his chin with my hand and turned his face upwards so his blue-violet eyes met mine. They were freaking glowing. "I saved you because I think you're something special" When I told him that, his eyes grew wide and his face became as red as a tomato. I pretty much made him speechless, something I really didn't want to do. I wanted to keep a conversation with him, because he just freaking amused me.

"So, what do you call yourself?" I asked him with smile and slight pink glow on my cheeks, wanting to know his name. He still wore a face of innocence as he answered my request.

"M-my name is M-matthew…...Matthew Williams." I still gave him my best smirk.

"Matthew, huh? Hmm... mind if I call ya, Mattie? The name's Gilbert Beilschmidt! One of the most awesome names you will ever hear, kesesesesese!"

...

Maybe i should cut down on the whole "I'm more awesome than any jackass in this school" thing. Well, at least only in front of him. I didn't want to seem like a jerk in front of him...a-and he might actually have a shot of being just as awesome as me (almost). So, trying to show off some of the (few) manners I have would be nice. Because damn, he looked all neat and mannerful...

He blushed even more when he heard the nickname i gave him. I don't know how red a person's face could get, but his almost looked like the color of my eyes.

"O-oh, no. I s-suppose it's fine! Mattie is...fine..." He looked away from me, obviously from embarrassment. He was such a cutie. I let go of his chin and offered him my hand. " Well come on, then! You don't want to sit here for a half hour by yourself, do you?" He shook his head and took my hand. I helped him up with one swift movement of my hand. He was so light, like a freaking cloud.

So..

For the next half hour, we chatted and stuff. I told him that I lived nearby the school, and that I didn't have any parents but I lived with my little brother. He said he lived in someplace called Vie, that everyone was his siblings, and that God was his father.

...

Well, that didn't sound right. Unless, he was very religious... but I just nodded my head, because he was serious.

Then...

The bell rang...

and I didn't want to leave him...

But since he was a sophomore and I was a junior...then of course we would have different classes! I told him that we would meet after school, to talk and "stuff". We entered the school and waved goodbye as we parted opposite directions down the hall. I walked to my locker, not caring if I was late to class. Honestly, I don't have a clue how I made it to my third year of high school. Maybe because I was to awesome to be held back! Yeah...that was it! I stared at my locker with a nice smirk on my face.

Oh...

Oh, wait...

CRAP

I forgot my stupid combination! Dammit! I frantically looked around in my pockets for my slip containing my locker combination.

" This yours, Frostie?" I turned around to see a boy with blond hair and blue eyes holding up a piece of paper. Oh, it was that Dane...

" H-hey, that's not the awesome me's name!" I grabbed the paper from him. That guy had a freaking smirk on his face like you wouldn't believe. It's my job to be awesome, dammit! Not his!

He laughed, " Well, I saw you drinking a milkshake earlier, and you spilled it all over you. Then, you claimed to have had a frostbite, so I guess I'm going to call ya Frostie! Ha~!" For some reason, this guy always dressed nice to school. Nice shirt, nice pants, nice jacket, and a nice...tie. I grabbed his tie and I pulled it, making him choke. " Don't you dare call me that! Ya hear, Matthias?" I let go of him, feeling a bit satisfied. After he regained himself, he nervously laughed, straightened his tie, and cleared his throat. " Heheh~ Whatever you say, Frostie~"

...

He was pretty damn lucky that he was a fast runner, or I swear, I would've ended him right there. Mumbing swears to myself, I looked down to the paper to find my locker combination: 16 2 16. Hey, that was pretty easy. I opened my locker to find a yellow chick fly straight into my face.

"G-gilbird! Aw~ Hey, little buddie!" I felt like cuddling the chick, although... would that be an awesome thing to do? " What were you doing in my locker? You always manage to sneak in, don't you?" Damn, did I have a soft spot for those chickies. I gathered my books together, but I didn't care for them, so I did it in a sloppy manner. I stuffed them into my bag. I let Gilbird rest on my shoulder... I mean, if Matthew could bring a polar bear to school, I could very much as well bring a small chick!

I checked my schedule to find out that I had Global History first period. Alright then, that sounded cool. Next to the class, there was the teacher's name.

Mr. Zwingli.

Huh... I never thought I would get him. People say he's scary and serious at times, but I think he's pretty cool. He's a sophomore teacher though, that's the only reason why i'm confused. Wait...sophomore...teacher...

I ran through the halls like the (crazy) awesome person I am, not caring about freaking out the nearby people. I heard their comments of my actions before I found my classroom.

"Haha~! Wow, Gil, you're pretty fast~!"

"Crazy, stupid albino bastard! What the hell do you think you're doing, dammit! "

" Like, totally run for it Gilbert!"

"Mon Dieu! G-gilbert, why the rush?"

"Dude! He's pretty damn fast! But the hero is faster of course, haha!"

" My word! The bloody hell do you think you're doing, you wanker!"

" Ugh! How immature of him, aru..."

... I got to admit though, this school amuses me.

xXxXxXx

Arriving at Room 205, I barged into the door to be face to face with Mr. Zwingli. He had almost a lifeless expression on his face, although it did immediately change to a sort of annoyed one when he saw me. " And you are?" I looked at him with a grin.

" The name's Gilbert Beilschmidt, the most awe-"

" Your late. You may take a seat now, Mr. Beilschmidt."

Well, he hated me. When he returned his gaze to the chalk board, discussing about some type of history, I searched frantically in the room, hoping to find his face.

...nope, not him...

...no...

...HELL no...

...

Then I saw him.

Sitting in the desk ALL THE WAY in the back corner. He had seen me barge in, because he was still staring at me with a flushed and a surprised (but happy) look on his face. I smiled at him as I took the conveniently empty desk that was beside him. I was so freaking happy to have the same class as him!

"Mattie~! How awesome is it to have me in your class?" His eyes were glowing and his blush grew darker.

...

MAN, he's just such a turn on, dammit!

"Well, I so happy that you're in the same class as me, Gilbert." I noticed his polar bear, who I think is named Kuma-something, looking a Gilbird. He wiggled his fluffy arm in his direction. "Who are you?" The yellow chick flapped it's wings a bit, cheerping, "Peo,peo,peo~!" Kuma-something-or-other nodded his head, " I'm Kumajiro and I'm hungry~"

...

Okaaayyy, that was his name! I looked at Matthew sigh...a sort of sad and dissapointed sigh... I DO NOT APPROVE! He patted the bear's head and said, " Kuma, you'll eat when it's time to eat..." The bear looked at him with a blank expression. "Who are you?"

Damn, that bear has problems. But... he was cute. And his owner was even cuter.

After we had gotten yelled at by our Swiss teacher for talking, I decided to communicate with Matthew by passing him notes throughout the rest of history class. I talked about how I wish school was over and how lame this class was, but that it was worth while because he was in it. He blushed in the cutest shade of pink.

When the bell rang, I grabbed his hand and ran off into the hallway. Of course that adorable blush would NOT leave his face, and it made me want to shake his head back and forth saying, " WHY ARE YOU SO DAMN CUTE~!" But... that would probably scare him or something.

"So, after school, are you still coming to my place?" I hoped he was still interested in coming over.

" Yes, of course, I'm still coming over... I really have no where else to go." He smiled and nodded his head.

" Alright then, after school, we are going to have an awesome time!" I smirked as I waved goodbye to him and headed off to my other classes, wishing I had the freaking power to speed up time.

Lunch went by pretty fast, and I only talked about how this stupid kid in my calculus class calling himself a fucking hero. Now there was ANOTHER person trying to be competitive with me for "The most awesome person in school!" title, other than the Dane. Dammit.

After all of my (stupid ass) classes were finished, I rushed back to my locker where I told Matthew we were going to meet. I opened my locker and stuffed all my books in there. I looked at the mess that I had made. Perfection~ Then, Gilbird suddenly flew from my shoulder and started cheerping. I turned around to see the chick on top of Matthew's head. Now, seeing the boy with a cute smile, holding that cuddly bear, with my bird perched on his freaking head made me want to sqeal with joy.

" A-are ya ready, Mattie?" I tried to keep my cool, because I'm that awesome. "Yes, I'm rea-" ...

He stopped talking. His smile turned into a a slight frown and his eyes widened while he furrowed his eyebrows. He looked as if he were terrified. It got me scared because I did NOT want to see him like that! Why was he like that? I saw a very large and dark shadow form behind him and I cocked my head to the side to see who it was. It was that new boy, the one that creeped me out during science class.

Ivan Braginsky.
