Enjoy! Review!
I'm still looking for anyone who would be interested in drawing for this story.
I'm willing to make a deal with anyone interested. Whether that's a shout out, a one-shot, a whole fanfiction, a poem, you name it and I will try and make it possible.
That being said, PLEASE?! Anyone!?
Does anyone have any suggestions for this story?
Chupito13, this chapter's for you. : )
EVENT: Jason's first school fight.
JASON: Sixteen.
The day had started off like any other Monday morning.
Jason had woken up, gotten ready, and driven to school.
He passed Charlie on his way and fought off the urge to pull over and offer him a ride like he had every morning for the two weeks prior.
He arrived at Gotham Academy and parked his car before walking to class.
He ignored the seductive looks the other girls shot him and managed to get to his first class without saying a word to anyone.
He turned his homework in – his first step in becoming the Jason Charlie had said he wanted- and began to review for the English test he'd have later on in the day.
When Charlie walks into the room, Jason watches him from the corner of his eyes.
Class rolls on at an agonizingly slow pace and when the bell rings, Jason is the first one out the door.
School rolls past like this.
Slow and boring.
When he walks into his last class, Jason fights off the need to walk over and beg Charlie for forgiveness.
Instead he walks over to the lab table at the back of the room and watches in anger as Charlie's new lab partner –Jeremiah- sits beside the blonde and begins to talk to him.
Jason sees red when Charlie chuckles and blushes at something the other had said but keeps himself in check.
It's when Jason is walking towards his car after class that he finally snaps.
Jeremiah has Charlie pressed against the side of his car- an old Mustang.
The blond is shaking his head and pushing at the brunet's chest with a frown.
Jason can't hear what it is that Jeremiah is saying but it's obviously making Charlie angry.
The ebony walks closer, his hands already clenched into fists.
"- seriously stop. I already told you no." Charlie mumbles as he pushes again to no avail.
"Come on Charles…you said it yourself; Jason blew it. He isn't worth your time…just say yes."
"I said no. Get away from me."
"Are you really going to wait for him? He's a lost cause Charles. He's an idiot. He's useless and is drowning in his own sorrows. He's depressed and nearing the breaking point. You know it and I know it. It's time to give him up. Say yes to me. I can offer you so much more."
Jason glares and takes a step forward at this but stops when Charlie reels back and slaps the brunet with a furious frown.
"I don't want more. I don't care that he isn't perfect. I don't care that he isn't you. I'm glad he isn't you! I don't want to be with you…I want to be with him. And if that means waiting a life time then…I'm willing to wait." The blonde states as a single tear slides down his cheek.
"You're pathetic." Jeremiah growls.
With that, Jason breaks and grabs the taller boy's shoulder.
The brown haired male turns with a glare and is met with Jason fist.
"Jason!" Charlie gasps when Jeremiah drops with a grunt.
"Say it again you street rat." Jason shouts furiously.
"Jason stop." Charlie pleads when Jeremiah stands and throws a punch of his own.
"You pathetic waste of space." Jeremiah growls as they throw punches left and right.
"Jason stop it!" Charlie screams as he watches in shock.
The fight only goes on for a few seconds before two upperclassmen pull them apart.
"You three, in my office. Now." the principal orders as soon as she arrives.
Charlie looks at the two bloody teens that had been fighting before running back into the building.
He hears Jason call after him but refuses to stop moving until he's safely in the office.
"Mr. Anderson…follow." Principal Gordon orders as she walks in behind the blonde.
Charlie nods and walks in to sit down in one of her chairs.
"Care to explain what happened?"
"Where's Jason?" Charlie asks in return.
"School nurse is tending to his cuts. Please explain?"
Charlie looks at the red haired women before sighing and beginning to speak.
He tells her everything from the conversation he and Jeremiah had been having to how Jason had walked up and punched the other.
"They were fighting over you."
Charlie nods and looks down.
"Yes."
With that, Ms. Gordon stands and walks over to the door of her office.
Charlie watches as she opens it and waves Jason and Jeremiah in.
"Care to give your sides of the story gentlemen?" she asks after they sit on either sides of Charlie.
The blonde sinks into his seat slightly when they both glance at him before shaking their heads.
"Very well…Mr. Murmer your father has been informed of today's events. You are free to go. Mr. Grayson…your Father is on his way."
"What? That's not fair!" Jason says with wide eyes.
"Mr. Murmer's father will need to come have a meeting with me as well Mr. Grayson."
"How come mine has to be here now?"
Jason receives no answer as Ms. Gordon and Jeremiah walk out of the room.
"Are you going to ignore me too?" the ebony asks the blonde with a sigh.
"Why'd you do it?" Charlie asks softly and looks at the other.
"he…his words just got me so mad. I couldn't hold myself back." Jason mumbles and clenches his fist.
"You got blood all over your shirt." Charlie mumbles as his eyes land on the once clean white button up.
"Your hair looks like you've run your hand through it a million times."
"I have." Charlie blushes and sighs.
"My Pop is going to kill me." Jason groans and slouches in his seat.
Charlie lets out a soft chuckle before reaching over and moving Jason's hair form his eyes gently.
"Charlie?" Jason looks at the blonde and sighs. "I'm sorry. For everything."
"I know…but I'm not ready to start again Jason. I need more time." Charlie mumbles.
"I figured."
They both cringe when Dick's voice drifts into the room from outside.
"Oh boy…" Jason groans and sits up.
"Mr. Anderson, you are dismissed." Ms. Gordon states as she walks in with Dick.
"Thank you." He mumbles before standing.
He plants a soft kiss on Jason's cheek before walking out.
The blonde doesn't miss how Jason no longer smells of cigarettes.
The familiar smell of his cologne and shampoo drifts into his senses and he can't help but smile widely as he walks home.
Jason however is anything but happy as he's forced to explain to his Pop what happened.
He doesn't meet his Pop's gaze when they drive home afterwards.
He doesn't say a single word as his pop stands next to him in the elevator.
But he does sit down at the kitchen table as soon as they walk into their home.
Sure enough, Dick walks over to him with Conner by his side a few minutes later.
"Care to explain what's going on?" Conner asks with a tired sigh.
"Not really." Jason mumbles.
"Too bad. Jason you've been acting weird…explain."
"Dad…"
"Don't 'Dad' me Jason…I'm serious."
Jason looks at his parents before nodding and sighing.
"Fine…"
Oh! Before I forget, there's been a suggestion that Jason finds another interest. A lusty type of fling that Jason gets sucked into. If you guys would like to see Jason…get a taste of the other colors of the rainbow please drop a comment saying YES. If you don't approve of the idea…drop a comment stating NO.
