So, another thank you goes out to all those who reviewed, and now I continue with the story...

Boarding School Hell

"Morning." Chris whispered as he opened his eyes to see his lover watching him and smiled.

"Happy Birthday." Wyatt smiled back. Almost two months had passed since the two roommates had returned from suspension, and had managed to stay out of trouble and out of the teachers' eyes the whole time. They had also managed to keep their relationship hidden from their friends, except Naff of course, which slightly surprised Chris at how nosey his friends really were.

Wyatt had not forgotten the conversation with Naff the night that they got back from being suspended, but nothing more had ever been said between them, Wyatt just knew he had to stay civil.

Chris laid his head on the blonde's chest with a sigh, causing the younger of the two to frown.

"You ok?"

"I'm fine," Chris answered, "I just don't want to get up yet. How long we got?" Just then the alarm clock blared from Wyatt's nightstand, "Great." The Perry sat up, the sheets to fall down his abs, allowing Wyatt to turn off the alarm clock. He moaned lightly as he felt the Halliwell's lips on his neck and shoulders, "Not fair…" He whispered with a slight smile as his eyes met his lover's.

"When have you known me to be fair?"

The now 18-year-old leaned back and kissed Wyatt's soft pink lips gently, just as there was the sound of somebody trying to get into the room.

"Damn it!" The two heard Speedy's voice on the other side of the door and laughed. The main reason their door was locked was for their activities last night, but Chris knew that there was going to be a prank on him today for his birthday and realised now that they were trying to pull it now.

Chris got out of the bed and wrapped a towel around his waist, while Wyatt laid back on his arms, the sheets only just covering him. The Halliwell watched as his brunette lover opened the bedroom door and smirked at the three stood on the other side.

"I can't believe you locked it, dude!" Speedy laughed as he walked in, followed by Titch and Ben, all three just in their PJ bottoms.

"Go on, what were you gonna do?"

"Oh, the pranks later, dude, we were just going to wake you up." Titch laughed, seeing the roll of Chris' jade green eyes.

"Well on that note, I'm going for a shower," Chris stated and started to walk out of the room, "Unless you've done something to the showers…" He looked at Ben to see him shake his head so completely left the room towards the showers.

"You gonna help us to get him down there today?" Titch turned to the Halliwell, once he knew Chris would be out of earshot.

"Course I will." Wyatt smiled with a nod, knowing the prank that was going to be played.

"How's the birthday boy?" Chris heard a familiar voice next to him as he sat down in Geometry, "What have you got your lapdog doing today?" Deciding to ignore it, Chris opened his textbook and leaned back in his chair, keeping his eyes on the back of Wyatt's head, "Oh right, is he not your lapdog anymore? Has he finally seen some sense?" Chris wanted to say something, but refrained himself, he would not stoop of the level of Lee Newns, "Or have you just had a lover's tiff?"

The Perry just watched as he saw Wyatt turn around, his blue eyes narrowing, "Do you ever shut up?" Wyatt asked, shaking his head, "He's obviously ignoring you, and all you're doing is pissing us all off." Lee smirked at the mini outburst and was about to say something but he heard a voice behind him say; "Finally, someone's told him to shut up." Instead, the 17-year-old decided to stare at his new found enemy, and if looks could kill Wyatt would be dust. The Halliwell just rolled his eyes and turned back in his seat, deciding against looking at his boyfriend, that could cause more attention than he had done already.

Chris just sighed, with a slight smile, at what Wyatt had just done and also slightly at what another teenager had said.

As they began their work, he looked up to see Wyatt looking at what he was writing.

"Which one are you stuck on?" Chris asked with a smile, geometry really was not one of Wyatt's strongest subjects, but he was getting there with it.

"Number one," The 18-year-old just looked at his lover, slightly dumbfounded that he was still on question one and he was now on question seven, "Can I see the answer or not? You may need to go over this with me later on today?"

"Sure." Chris laughed slightly, showing Wyatt the answer.

"How about down at the lake, since it's a nice day for the middle of November?"

Not thinking anything of it, Chris nodded his head and laughed at the grin he had on his face as he turned back around. The brunette sighed, he had not been looking forward to his birthday, not after everything that had happened, but he was happy now, he was going to spend his day with the one person he wanted to be with. Wyatt.

"So, if you look at the equation you can…Wyatt are you even listening to me?" Chris looked up to see his lover gazing at him. He snapped his fingers in front of Wyatt's eyes, causing him to blink, "I can't teach you if you don't listen."

"Sorry." Wyatt replied sheepishly, as out of the corner of his eye he could see a group of boys creeping up on them. Knowing what was going to happen, Wyatt asked Chris to explain it all again to him, this time promising to listen, but could he help it if his boyfriend was the most gorgeous person on the planet?

As the group got closer, Wyatt blocked Chris' view from them, just until the group of teens' shadows covered him and he looked up.

Chris saw Speedy's mischievous grin as he was picked up by four others and taken closer to the lake. He knew exactly what was going to happen and tried to get out of the grasp of his four friends, but it was no use, the only time he got out of their grasp was when he ended up in the lake.

Wyatt watched and laughed as the brunette was thrown into the lake, fully clothed, by Teapot, James, Nick and Stick all under the orders of Speedy and Titch, who stayed at the side with Wyatt just watching the scene. As Chris climbed out of the lake, he could see the look of playful anger.

"I can't believe you guys…" Chris yelled, laughing at the same time, he had to admit it was amusing. As he got to the group of four who threw him into the lake, "Actually, I suppose I can." The five teens joined the three further up the back, and Chris saw the smile on his lover's face.

"You're not struggling in geometry at all, are you?"

The Halliwell laughed slightly, "Not as much as you think." The birthday boy shook his head, surprised that he had walked straight into his friends prank and then looked around.

"Where's Naff?"

"Cycled into the town to get some alcohol for tonight," Speedy laughed, "You should get changed, you look a little wet."

Chris narrowed his eyes at his blonde haired friend and then pounced on his back, wrapping his arms around him, "I'm all wet? I think you are now." He laughed as he got off his back and then turned to his lover, who was putting some books in a backpack, "And as for you."

Wyatt looked into the brunette's jade green eyes and saw a mischievous smile.

"Oh shit!" Wyatt said as he began to stand and back away, leaving the backpack, "Titch, take the bag to your room." Wyatt shouted as he ran off, behind chased by the 18-year-old.

As Titch picked up the school bag, he dropped behind the group as they walked back into the school.

"Something's going on between them, right?" He quietly asked Speedy, knowing Speedy knew everything.

"I think so," Speedy answered, "We'll find out tonight."

The group of eight teens sat in the cafeteria, eating their supper. Wyatt and Chris had not met up with them yet, they had not seen them since the lake incident a few hours ago, which added to Titch's suspicions that something was going on. Not that he would have minded, but it would have been nice for his friends to tell him.

"Where the hell have you two been?" Nick's voice was heard, making everybody look up to see both the teens sitting down at the table each with food, "We haven't see you since we threw you in the lake."

"I took an extremely long shower," Chris replied, "God knows what's at the bottom of that lake, but it's horrid."

"And by the time he'd finished getting me back for getting him down there, I seriously needed a shower too." Wyatt smiled, shaking his head. He caught Naff's look at him disapprovingly, but shrugged it off. He and Chris had been solid for the past two months, just over, and Wyatt could not see something bad happening anytime soon.

Chris looked at his blonde haired lover, to see him look away from someone. As he looked around the table, he still could not pinpoint what he was looking away from, so got his attention by running his leg up Wyatt's. He frowned when Wyatt just shook his head and leaned back in his chair.

"So, tonight…" Chris attention was drawn back to the group at the sound of James' voice, "Who's room?"

"Birthday Boy's of course." Teapot answered, causing both Chris and Wyatt to look at him.

"Our room?" Chris questioned.

"What's wrong?" Titch smirked, "You two hiding something?" Chris flashed Titch a look of shock.

"No." Chris replied finally, but could see Titch roll his grey eyes blatantly not believing him. His eyes moved to Speedy, who seemed to think the same as Titch, but everybody else just seemed to take his answer.

"So, is there anything wrong with your room?" James asked.

"There's nothing wrong with our room," Wyatt shook his head, since Chris was too busy at watching intently his two friends, "Party in ours then."

As they all began to leave the cafeteria, Titch and Speedy pulled the 18-year-old to the back, hanging back slightly so the others could not hear.

"Ok, spill." The taller of the two friends stated.

"Spill about what?"

"You and Wyatt," Speedy continued, "What's going on?"

"You think…"

"Chris, we're not bothered if something is," Titch sighed, "We're more bothered you didn't think of telling us. C'mon, us three have been buddies since we first stepped through those gates, the least you could do is tell us when you finally decide you're gay."

"Finally decide I'm gay?" Chris asked, making both his friends laugh.

"C'mon C!" Speedy shouted, but then quietened down, "You and Ben last year, you dumping your girl, who you'd been with for what was it, nearly two years? You're trying to tell us that you weren't gay but still trying to figure it out?"

"You could see that?"

"Chris, we're your buddies, course we could," Titch nodded, "Which is why we really couldn't give a damn about you and Wyatt, just please tell me it didn't all start because of your grandpa."

"No, no, no," Chris shook his head, "It started before we were suspended to be honest."

Both teens stopped, but Chris carried on walking until he realised his friends were now behind him, "What are you two doing?"

"Before you were suspended?" Titch asked, slightly gobsmacked, "That was only, wait you were away for a week before that…was it before that? No, it couldn't have been before that, that was like less than a week into the school term…that was like…"

"Oh my God, I thought Wyatt said he was straight." Speedy cut his vertically challenged friend off.

"He was." Chris beamed, causing the two to shake their heads.

"You turned a straight guy gay," Speedy finally said, "Impressive."

"So, do you loooovvvee him?" Titch sounded like a high school girl, which made Chris and Speedy crack up, which then made the group of seven in front of them look around to see what the commotion was. Once the seven had carried on walking, Chris finally looked at Titch with a sly smile, which the 17-year-old took as a 'yes' and nodded, "Alright then."

---

"I'm just trying to tell you that I don't want to see him hurt," Naff argued with the Halliwell, they were further ahead of the big group, but still close enough to hear Chris, Titch and Speedy laugh to turn around and look at them, "And that's what I was trying to say before."

"You pretty much threatened me before…"

"How the fuck did I threaten you?" Naff asked, "I asked if you loved him and you dodged the question, which made me wonder how you feel about him, why you're actually with him," Wyatt wanted to say something but Naff just continued, "He was fucked in his head after his grandpa died, I knew that as soon as I saw him, but I also saw how he looked at you. He was fucking crazy about you, and you just act like it's all a game, that you're just using him while you're here to get laid. That's not the way to…."

Smack! Wyatt breathed heavily just after his fist connected with Naff's jaw. He could see everybody around them both, looking in shock at what had happened.

Naff's dark brown eyes stared intently at the Halliwell, as he grabbed his jaw with his left hand and clenched his right. Naff swung his arm, connecting with the Halliwell's cheek bone but it did not seem to phase him. Instead, Wyatt moved forward and grabbed the other's shirt with one hand and punched him again with the other.

"I'm not just in it to get laid, ok?" Wyatt spat and then threw the 17-year-old to the floor, "I love him. There are you happy now I've said it." He felt two people pulling him back, and that was when he realised the commotion their mini fight had caused as he saw the group of students standing around them. Wyatt closed his eyes as he felt his back touch a cold wall, as he opened them again he saw Chris and Speedy in front of him, Titch not too far behind, and the rest of their group helping Naff up, trying to figure out what was going on.

"What was that?" Chris asked, his eyes searching Wyatt's for answers, but all he could see was anger.

"Does it matter?"

"It does when you hit one of my friends," Chris answered, "Any reason for it?"

The Halliwell just stared at his lover, his breathing still not calming, his anger still rising and now at Chris. But why? Naff was in Chris' life much longer than he had been, but Naff had not helped him through his darkest time like he had himself. The blonde haired 17-year-old just looked into his lover's eyes without saying a word and then started to walk away.

"Wyatt, where are you going?" Chris asked him, grabbing his arm to pull him back, but the younger of the two got out of his grasp, just looking at him.

"I'll see you later."

Confused, Chris looked at his friends, the crowd now just about leaving. There was something behind this, he knew Wyatt and he would not hit someone unless he was provoked. He walked over to Naff and looked into his dark brown eyes; "Do you wanna tell me what it was about?"
