Episode 65 : Surprising

It is now a busy thursday morning and at the hallway of the school, Jameson was there on his locker fixing his stuffs alone......

Jameson: (looks around) (notices people busy talking to each other) (in his mind) I bet they are all excited as we are for the whole prom.....
Baron: (enters the hallway) (notices Jameson) hey... good morning Jameson.....
Jameson: huh? (notices Baron) oh hey Baron! good morning as well.....
Baron: you arrived here alone today? where are the others???
Jameson: no ugh haha... the boys are just doing stuffs in the library while I am here fixing my stuffs before classes start... they will eventually come back though.... how about you... you did not join us going to school????
Baron: oh me?? I am just basically late and that is it.... (leans his back on the lockers) and thank God people are still not in the classes......
Jameson: (nods) well... while we are at it.... I just want to say how I think that you are somehow right....
Baron: about what? (listens curiously to Jameson)
Jameson: you told me about how I should consider staying in with Sam because we both know I will eventually going to get kicked out of my very own apartment and yesterday... he seems hinting it.....
Baron: (smiles) I told you.... he really is an ideal boyfriend... he knows it all....
Jameson: wait... (eyes widens at Baron nervously) does he really know that I an fucking going to get kicked out soon???
Baron: I do not know... I just think he's basically just that helpful and sweet and besides... not surprised if he knows.... he already knows that you do not have a scholarship right???
Jameson: (nods)
Baron: then he can assume that you would struggle so....
Jameson: you have a big point and I think I should take action before my problems become bigger for Sam..... poor boyfriend.. (shakes his head)
Parker: (enters and notices Jameson and Baron) oh hey... (approaches Jameson and Baron) good morning...
*Baron and Jameson notices Parker*
Baron: (smiles) oh hey Parker! good morning..... how are you??
Parker: kinda busy.... Henry and Sam just texted me to help them as well in whatever they are doing in the library... just wanna ask if it would be fine.. because I told him that you could help him but he doesn't wanna bother his boyfriend...
Jameson: he said that... (smiles and blushes) well... (shrugs) you do not have to tell me that... of course you can help out Sam.. no worries bro.... I promise.....
Parker: yeah... (shyly nods) just making sure I am not being too much so... (looks and waves bye at Baron) see you guys later... (left)
Baron: (slightly smiles while watching Parker leaving)
Jameson: (notices Baron looking at Parker) just wanna ask... are you even mad at Parker?? sorry but... I just noticed how you are so like this since yesterday...
Baron: (shrugs) do I look mad?? (looks down sadly) I am not actually mad at him... maybe I am just new seeing him around..... like he sudden came to our life.... I am not mad...you are just.....
Jameson: jealous? (smiles at Baron) haha... (cuts off Baron) I mean... he is surprisingly close with Mason.....
Baron: I am not jealous but.... fascinating... how everyone is surprised of his existence.... (slightly frowns)
Jameson: (looks confused at Baron) (in his mind) you sound like you are holding back something Baron... but I cannot force you with it.....
Baron: (feels stressed)

It is now early in the afternoon and it is currently lunch.... at the men's restroom, Parker was there washing his hands at the faucets.....

Parker: (walks out of a toilet cubicle) (approaches and washes his hands at the faucet)
Baron: (enters the restroom) (notices Parker) (feels speechless)
Parker: (notices Baron) hey Baron.... it seems that we keep seeing each other huh??
Baron: haha... (awkwardly laughs) I guess so.... (approaches and washes his hands on a faucet) isn't it surprising??
Parker: yeah but happy to be around I guess.... have you guys eaten???
Baron: yeah... (nods) (feels awkward) (looks at him and Parker at the mirrors) I thought Jameson was here as well.... I guess he went to a different restroom......
Parker: I guess so.... (washes his face with water)
Baron: but Parker... can I ask you something personal while we are here???
Parker: what is it??? (looks curious at Baron)
Baron: I do not even know if I have the rights to tell you about this but as a concerned friend of Mason.. whatever happened to him..
Parker: (looks nervous at Baron)
Baron: you know about it, don't you? because you were a part of it....
Parker: oh ugh..... (takes a deep breath) Baron....
Baron: (angrily speaks) (cuts off Parker) because you are a basketball player as well and Mason... the truth about Mason is that he was sexually abused by those players and you are one of it.....
Parker: I was not part of it..... I made a mistake... I know but I never sexually abused him... I filmed it...
Baron: (angrily shouts) then what's the difference...
Parker: I was forced! you know how I am the most isolated one from my teammates and I did not mean to do that because I have no choice!!
Baron: (angrily grabs Parker by the shirt) good people always have a choice Parker and you are here just to make..... (suddenly notices some bruises on Parker's chest) (feels confused)
Parker: (looks frightened at Baron) (covers his bruises)
Baron: what happened with that??
Parker: (moves away immediately from Baron) (cries softly) I am sorry Baron but I... I understand how you find me suspicious about being close with each one of you but I did this not to clean myself.... but to really pay for my mistakes.... because I admit that I done something stupid.....
Baron: (sadly listens to Parker)
Parker: but one thing I did but this is not for you to pity on me.... they all did the same thing to me to help out and hope Mason could forgive me but they took the video away from me!!!
Baron: (eyes widens worriedly at Parker) who did this?? if this is not you.. tell me!
Parker: (looks around) I do not even know if we should talk about it here... there will always be ears listening everywhere Baron..... and please keep yourself safe.... Mason will say the same....
Baron: but Parker....
Parker: I am sorry.. (wipes his tears) (left)
Baron: (sadly watches Parker leaving)
Jameson: (hiding and secretly listening in the toilet cubicle) (in his mind) the whole illness of Mason was caused by the basketball players abusing him??!

It is now dismissal and at the lockers again, Parker was out there getting ready to go home....

Parker: (looks around) (in his mind) I think I should not hang out with them for a while....
Gail: (approaches her locker) (notices Parker at his locker from a distance) (smiles)
Parker: (tightly wears his jacket) (completely covers his skin) (notices Gail looking at him) (smiles and waves hello to Gail) hey!
Gail: (smiles widely) ugh.. (looks around) (about to approach Parker) hey!!
*Desiree and Sam approaches Parker*
Desiree: oh here he is.... (notices Parker)
Gail: (suddenly notices Desiree and Sam) (sadly stops walking)
Parker: (eyes widens at Desiree and Sam) wait... hey Desiree and Sam! going home already?
Sam: yeah and the boys may be waiting for us outside already..... kinda finishing up things in the library...... by the way, thank you for helping me earlier with navigating stuffs...
Parker: anything Sam!! but you seem to be working there.. aren't you???
Desiree: (smiles at Sam)
Sam: (shrugs) do not know yet.. let us see... but it is fun though....
Parker: (nods shyly)
Sam: so... want to join us going home??
Parker: can I?? (feels nervous)
Sam: oh c'mon.... of course you can.. we are already hanging out for weeks....
Desiree: and a friend of mine is a friend of his as well... 
Sam: friend? (teases Desiree)
Desiree: whatever! (rolls her eyes) let us go boys!! (left)
*Sam and Parker smiles and laughs at each other*
Gail: (sadly keeps looking at Parker) (returns back and fixes her stuffs)
Parker: (notices Gail busy) let's go Sam.... (left)
Sam: (notices Gail) (takes a deep breath sadly) (left)
