Invisible No more- Chapt 2
Matthew POV-
So I met a senior, Gilbert, who left his bag in the bus we were riding. I got it back for him and now he's my friend.
As far as I know, Gilbert is a failing student, always absent at school for no reason at all. He's very handsome too.
How did I know about him being a failing student? Well, it's the rumours. They are very abundant in W.A.
So, in other words I made a new 'failing student and might get kicked out of the school for skipping class'friend.
_ (Next few days)
I saw Gilbert walking towards the gate, he looked uninterested. I ran towards him to greet him.
"Hey," I said, waving my hand and later discading it in my pocket.
"Oh, hi- Matthew?" He asked in a tone that told me he need confirmation. Well, I can't blame him, we haven't each other for days now because he doesn't go to school.
"So Gil, are you planning to go to school today?" I asked the albino.
Today, he was dressed in a plain black dress shirt, unbuttoned to show a portion of his broad chest. Black jeans were tightened by a belt that goes around his waist.
On the other hand, I was dressed in my red hoodie jacket with a maple leaf hand-stitched on the front. I was wearing a pair of beige sweat pants and my glasses of course.
"Ja. I can't believe it." He said, his expression was obvious- he was annoyed.
"So, why are you always absent?" I can't help but ask.
He just chuckled. And whispered in my ear that he doesn't want to talk about it.
When the bell rang, we had no choice but to separate.
Today, I heard a rumour again that Gil's family is broken. I heard about him and Ludwig being brothers but then their parents separated so they were separated. That never severed their connection though and they still remain close with each other. Unlike me and Alfred.
When our parents separated, he hardly even talks to me anymore. The only time he talks to me is when he needs something or he's worried about me.
I've been living with him, and we both pay the rent on the money we set aside for it. I felt like I was back home when Alfred agreed to be roommates with me. I was really thankful, until I found out he was noisy, and not to mention, messy and very dirty.
Enough with that though.
I still want to know why Gil is always absent. How am I going to use him for my ultimate plan if he's always absent? I need my revenge, OK?
I know it's wrong, but I just need his help. I won't unfriend him or anything once I'm done.
_(Later at lunch time)
I waited for the seniors to go down, hoping to see a familiar face, which I saw. He was strutting down the stairs, a big cocky grin engraved in his pale and ghostly face, which brings it to life.
He was with Francis, a senior, and uhh.. I don't know.
I know Francis, he happened to tutor me once in cooking. I don't know the other brunette though.
He immediately noticed me staring at him, and came running to greet me.
"Hey, what's up?" He questioned, the stead-fast smile on his face widened.
The other boys followed behind him like cattle.
"Nothing, I just want you to expand on the absent thing." I confessed, I just want this to be over with. I don't want to use someone whom I know might have a problem bigger than mine.
"Gilberto? Who is this?" The adorable brunette asked. His eyes were shining in deep emerald, thick lashes of earth frame his round eyes. "Matthew?" Francis after a few seconds finally remembered me.
"Wait, you know each other?" Gilbert asked Francis, whose laugh confirmed everything.
I sighed deeply before introducing myself to the brunette who stood next to Gilbert, his stare locked on me.
"Hello, my name is Matthew. I met Gilbert on the bus, he left his bag, so I gave it back to him and that's how we met. I met Francis during my early days in cooking class, he tutored me when the lesson gets really hard." I introduced as I reached out my hand, which he immediately grabbed and shook.
"Hola, I'm Antonio. You can call me Toni though." The strong Spanish accent filled the air as the brunette started blabbering in quick Spanish.
"Woah, Toni. He doesn't take Spanish lessons." Gilbert placed a hand on Toni's shoulder and pulled him a little.
"Pérdon, I didn't know." He said, though he speaks English, he just can't diminish that Spanish accent, just like Francis and Gilbert can't get rid of their French and German accent.
"It's OK. Anyways, Gil, why are you always absent?
END.
