3-Minute Passion (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 6

Please be patient with the story. xx

When I got back to my house it is already midnight. I switched on the lights of my room. I am not used to the sight of it being totally clean. I keep checking my cellphone, waiting for Red to send me a text message.

I lay on my bed. His kiss kept on playing over and over my head. Butterflies are raging in my stomach. Looks like I'll be up all night.

Buzz buzz buzz

I opened my eyes. Something on my stomach is vibrating. I flipped my body lazy so I am resting on my back. I grabbed my cellphone and looked why it is vibrating. I have 2 missed calls from Red.

I looked at the time and it is already 11AM. Shit. I slept for too long.

I sent him a text message:

Red,
So sorry I wasn't able to answer your call. Are we still up for tutoring?

I think not mentioning about what happened last night was the best thing to do.  After a few seconds, my phone vibrates again.

I sat on my bed leaning on the headboard. It's from Red. I can't help but smile.

James,
That's what I am meaning to talk to you about. You can't come over. I have to do something else. I'll just finish my homework later on.

I didn't know why I feel like my inside shattered in to a billion pieces. I know what he is trying to do. He is avoiding me about last night. What did I do wrong for him to react like this? He was the one who kissed me. I groaned throwing my cellphone on the floor. I don't mind throwing it since my floor is carpeted.

The day passed by so fast. I watched tons of romantic movies on my laptop.

My eyes begin to feel dry. I looked at the time and it's already 8PM. I looked around my room. A bowl of popcorn lies on the carpet, 3 cans of diet coke and plastic bags from licorice and gummy bears. That's a lot of junk. I yawned. The movie I am watching is almost done. The movie is The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
It is on the part where Logan Lerman is taking a picture with his best friends' graduation. I feel so connected to the movie, because like Logan, I felt like an outcast in my school. The movie finally ended. I closed my laptop then put it under my bed. I have a weird way of fixing my things by stuffing them under the bed.

I checked my cellphone for any text, hoping to hear from him soon. I gave up on the thought and decided to go to sleep.

My alarm turns on with the sound of a siren. I used the siren to instantly wake me up. I stretched my arms. I walked over the bathroom to prepare for school. I get up at exactly 5 in the morning to prepare myself. It's a habit my grandmother taught me. She doesn't want me to rush that's why. I brushed my teeth and took a shower. The water is cold at first, but I helped myself in. I like to shower on cold water every morning so that my organs know it's time to wake up.

After taking a shower, I went to my closet to get a white sweatshirt. I pulled on my drawer to get some black jeans. I put them on then headed downstairs.

As I went down, I can smell tea and bacon lingering in my nose. My grandmother is preparing me some breakfast. My mouth watered after seeing so much food on the table. She didn't only prepare bacon and tea. There's also some toasted bread, orange juice, milk, sausages, and omelettes.

"Are you going to feed the whole neighborhood, Ma?" I said as I took a sit.

"You didn't eat dinner last night. I don't want to get you skinny. Eat as much as you like." she said. She kissed me on my forehead then poured tea on her cup. She sat across me as she was checking something on her Ipad. Her glasses rests on the bridge of her nose. She is wearing a floral dress. She likes doing that, dressing up even though she doesn't go out. I finished half of the breakfast she served and kissed her on the cheeks goodbye. I grabbed my keys on the table then went to the garage. I don't really know what to expect. I felt a little nervous as I drove towards school. It only takes me 10 minutes to get there.

I parked my car in the parking lot. There are not much cars around, I am guessing the mini vans are for the teachers. I checked my watch, it's only 6:30. I have 30 minutes to spare. I walked towards the football field. It's beside the parking lot so I didn't spend too much time walking towards it. I liked seeing the grass in the morning. The sun covers it and it dances along as the warmth of the sun touches them.

I head back to school and took a seat in front of the class. I always sit on th front row, because O have impaired eyesight and it helps me focus on learning. Minutes passed by and students are starting to come in.

I don't know what gives, but I feel like they were staring at me as they took a seat. I even noticed two blondies murmur something as one of them glares at me.

I was confused all throughout our History class. By lunch time, I still feel people staring and glaring at me. I am beginning to get pissed off. I already went to the restroom to check if I have something on my face. I scanned the cafeteria for Nicole. She is sitting at the middle of the cafeteria, talking to a guy I haven't seen before. I grabbed a tray and paid for my food.

The walk towards her felt like years. I am beginning to feel uneasy with the whispers and stares. Nicole noticed me and gave me a warning look. Did I miss something?

I sat down beside her. She turned to me.

"How are you? Are you fine? I thought you're not coming to school." she said worringly.

I gave her a confused look. She gasps silently.

"Oh no. You didn't hear about it? You know I was trying to call you all morning? I thought you wanted to be alone. Oh my. I am so sorry." she said. I can sense there is panic in the tone of her voice.

"Fuck. Can you just get to it? I am fucking pissed with all these things happening without having a clue. D'you know what that feels like?" i angrily whispered. I don't want to make a scene considering I am already in one.

She sighed.

"There's a rumour that you kissed Red forcibly when you took him home. I know it's not true at all, but..."

The words were like knife stabbing my chest. I wanted to scream and just cry.

"What do you mean by but? Don't fucking tell me you believe that shit? I came out to you, because I know you understand me. I didn't know you think of me that way. I am not that desperate, Nicole." I cut her off.

I am trying to catch my breath as I stood up. She tried to hold my wrist but I swat her away. I looked around the cafeteria to search for Red. I saw him and some jocks are piling up around him. They were talking and laughing. Since when did he become close to those meat heads?

One of the jocks who is wearing a black shirt noticed Red staring at me emotionless.

"Faggot." the fucking prick shouted.

I felt myself grumbling to the ground as the word slaps my inside. I can't take it anymore. People started staring all at once.

I have to cut this off. I'll continue it on the next chapter. So, how was it? Hope to hear from you guys soon. xx
