Justin was always warry of Alex who did glance at him whenever he had the time, his eyes scanning him up to down like he was a box filled with unknown treasures. He noticed when Alex got newly admitted into their school, he was the new nerd, tall and all but he gave off a dark aura which remind him to stay away from a future threat.
He was like 5"10, while Alex was like 6"01, and he was huge. If not for his emo vibe, he would have had a lot of girls flocking about him, he will also enjoy the bliss of changing the girls like his cloth. He just could not figure out how he decided to be in a celuded place all by himself. Justin still in all this was freaked out by his eyes gaze that he sometimes wonder what they really look like.
"Are you going to stand their all day?"
Justin came back to reality as he realized he was still standing infront of the vending machine without taking his dring, while his friend had a poker face.
"Sorry, just lost in the moment when I remembered something", he gave his best sorry face while they walke back to class, it was funny how his friend with his arrogant behaviour could still have girls waving at him and calling him senior.
"What are you going to do?", his frend asked, his name was Jackson, he gave him a brief look before dipping his hands in his pocked and slouched forward a bit before he signing loudly, "you have to be home before 7 today and you have to stay back because your sorry ass decided to turn Mr Tommy's class to your personnal bedroom.
Justin frown a little, "I did not, besides accidents happen, he just deceided to make me a vessel for his anger", his eyes trailed off to ahead them when he took notice of Alex who shocking enough had the most porpular senior beside him, they called a lot attention, and his curiousity pricked him to know what Alex did or if they knew each other.
When they turn the stairs and went below, he excussed himself from Jackson and trailed behind them quietly while making sure not to make any noise. He just wanted to know something about the boy other than his name. He just hope they forgive him, if they every find out what he was about to do.
They stopped behind the hall and sat on the bench, thanks to the flowers they made, he was able to sit on the ground and hear whatever they wanted to say freely. He wanted to open the can of fanta he bought, but then he relized he did be an idiot if he did so.
"Alex, look at me and answer my ealier question, what is wrong with you? You know mum and dad are trying their best to make you have te best of high school, but then why are you trying to hid in your shell again?"
Alex drew his hoodie down as the fresh ai brushed his skin and he smiled in peace,"none of them want to be my friend", he replied while rubbing his eyes lazily.
His elder brother gave him a pat on his back and threw a smile, "just know I got your back no matter what". He then leaned into his chair, "Let's stay here till Maths is over, I really don't want to do any calculations"
"Yeah, I may die if I was in class now, besides Mrs Park must have gone crazy in mathematic".
"Speaking of a witch, like I caught her once picking her nose and eating it"
Alex gave a face and laughed off with his brother, "that's disgusting.' Mr Tommy has realsed a really loud gas while in the hallway, he thought no one was there and Mrs Norway, was iching her ass like a manic, it was so rough, I feared it was going to bleed".
Justin felt guilt for preyng into this two brothers who were having their time of life, but that made him curious to know who the new boy was, and how come he chatted freely and openly like th word was dancing on his plam, his laugh was relaxing to his ear and he did not know when he slept off just to be woken by Jackson who was about to give he a slap that will rearrange his face.
"Get your ass up, what the fuck do you think you are doing here?", he screamed to his face.
Justin yawned and look about to just realized he actually slept off there, "I must have fainted", she said sheepily.
"Really, like you fainted with style, right?", he helped him up, "tell me another lie".
They both walked to their dvd store to get a game before parting ways at the subway, on his joureny home he felt at peace, knowing he wasn't going to be attached one day, the only thing that remained was for him to befriend the new boy and know about him.
When he got off, he went staight to the convience store not far from the station, his crush was working there, and pretending to ut things there was the only thing he cold do to see him everyday.
He got some shortcake for his sister and a drink for himself as he went to pay, no one else was int he store besides them and has his crush was scanning the things he ad bought, he could not help but loo at him, he them realized how beautiful his eyes were, when he looked up to tell him the price, their eyes meet and it seemed like time stopped for them, they were breathing another type of air.
"Your eyes are pretty, I love them", Justin let out without realizing it, he the became consious of his surrounds, he quickly payed and ran out without collecting his change, what was wrong with him.
Tomorrow was something he looked forward to as he walked home.
