The Boarding School
Chapter 13- Penguins and Satsuma's
The next morning, Vince was scurrying about energetically whilst Naboo tied the laces of his perfectly curled boots.
"Morning." Vince smiled at Howard, pausing for a second to scan the cabinet next to Howard's bed.
"Morning, what are you looking for?" Howard asked, sitting up and rubbing his head lightly.
"My root booster! It's gone and I dunno where." Howard scrutinized Vince's hair and smiled. "What? Why are you so happy?"
"You look fine as you are." Vince blushed slightly and went to get changed. Half an hour later they were in lessons and Howard was writing the chemical equation for photosynthesis whilst Vince drew penguins across the border of his page. The pen engraved the paper as he drew steady, straight lines curved at the bottom for the penguin's stomach. It was quite a good drawing and he had switched off at the beginning of the lesson. Turning the page, Howard also wrote down the biomass of a tulip and drew one in pencil and colour unlike Vince's pen scrawled ones. Vince drew a penguin with a moustache and a fishing hat holding a trumpet alongside one with a cool hair do, a cowboy hat and cowboy boots. The one with boots on had a strange face on its stomach. It was a simply line drawing but held a lot of detail within the fine pen strokes.
"Howard look, that one's you and this is me. You've got a trumpet." Howard squinted and smiled.
"Nice… what's on your stomach?" Howard asked and pointed to the face on the penguin's stomach.
"Oh that's the Boosh symbol. I made up a band consisting of… well me and called it the Mighty Boosh. That's the symbol." Vince smiled innocently and turned the page back. "That's Naboo… a Penoo!" Vince grinned inanely and looked up at Bob Fossil who had a less than impressed look on his face. "Yeah, yeah I'm going." Vince sighed and smiled at Howard. "See ya later." Vince ambled to Fossil's office.
"Making a habit of this Mr Noir?" Fossil cockily said as he sat down.
"Umm… I'm trying not to but we just keep getting pulled back together." Vince sighed and sat down; there were better places to be." Fossil circled him and tutted.
"How would you describe yourself? Describe yourself in two words." Vince smirked cheekily.
"Electro bitch." Vince giggled and fluffed his hair. "Oh or in four words, King of the Mod's." Fossil rolled his eyes and bent down.
"How's about this word… expelled!" Vince gasped and looked at him with pleading eyes.
"Fossil come on, we're on the same wave length here… give me another chance please! I can change… I think. I look at this as a learning experience." Vince innocently smiled.
"Yeah? Go eat a nut sandwich electro bitch and get out my office!" Vince gulped and ran back to his lesson.
"Howard, can I borrow you a second?" Howard nodded and followed Vince outside.
"What is it?" Vince checked both ways.
"I think I might have been expelled for drawing penguins." Howard covered his mouth to hide the gaping hole which was his mouth.
"What? You can't go, you're my only friend." Vince blinked away some tears and smiled.
"I know. I don't want to go." Howard pulled Vince into his arms and smiled, rubbing circles onto the smaller man's back.
"Shh, it's alright little man, we're gonna keep you here." Howard was actually relieved to see the softer side of Vince… it showed he was still human.
"Do you mean that Howard?" Howard nodded and pulled Vince back into his chest.
"You know I do. Just out of interest, why were you drawing penguins?" Vince looked up, a naïve glisten in his eyes.
"Umm well I was wondering what we'd look like if we were penguins so I drew us as them." Howard playfully threw a Satsuma from his pocket at Vince's head and smiled when he pulled out about ten. "The Satsuma war is on!" Passing Howard five Satsuma's, Vince threw the first and Howard returned the blow, hitting Vince square on the nose.
"Ha, take that!" Vince threw one back and soon they were lying on the grass surrounded by squashed oranges and covered in the juices of ten citrus fruits. "Well that was fun." Howard chuckled and Vince reached for his hand.
"Yeah, it was… Howard I have something to say before I find out if I am expelled." Howard's chocolate eyes linked with his blue ones, affection and care tangled with every single glance. "Well I think that I might like you… ya know, like you." Howard smiled and pulled himself closer to Vince.
"That makes two of us… wait… I mean I like you not that I like me." The confusion in his voice couldn't stop Vince bursting out into laughter.
"Ha-ha, you're a nutter Howard but I like it." Vince curled up beside Howard in a ball and wrapped an arm around his cloth clad waist. Both their blazers were beneath them so Howard picked up his to wrap around Vince who had goosebumps. Howard ran a hand through Vince's soft hair and contentedly sighed. They lay there for a while, ignoring their lessons and enjoying the time they had together held in one another's tender embrace. Lance walked past and scoffed, pulling up Harold Boom beside him… his trusty, stupid, mindless sidekick who did not come at people but apply flimsy moves that had no impact whatsoever. A plan had formed in his head and tomorrow, he would pull them apart once and for all. Except this time… there was no way it could possibly fail.
