''𝙸𝚝'𝚜 𝚘𝚔 𝚝𝚘 𝚌𝚛𝚢.'' (Boyfriend x Pico)

''ᴏɴᴇ ᴛʜɪɴɢ''

Boyfriend wanted Pico to come with him to class, he didn't want to be alone again. But unfortunately he was a year older than him, so the only class they had together was around the end of the day. He carefully opened his classroom's door and snuck over to the teachers desk and placed the nurses pass on it.

As he walked to his own desk by the back window, he heard someone mumble something under their breath. He thought nothing of it and at down. He stared out the bright window and rested his head on his hand.

He opened his journal and started writing down notes.

This was gonna be a long day.

..-Timeskip-..

Boyfriend lifted his head up from his desk as the dismissal bell rang. He reached for his book bag.

'BLAM'

The shaken boy looked up at one of his bullies staring down at him. The one in the middle had slammed his hands down on the desk to get Boyfriend's attention.

The bluenette grabbed his bag and rushed to get out. As he got out the door, he was grabbed. All he wanted to do was lay in bed and talk to Pico.

One of the boys pushed him into a locker and held him there.

"You probably enjoy this don't you?" The 'leader' spat.

"What do you mean!?" Boyfriend pulled his arms away.

"You know exactly what I mean, you f-----." The boy punched Boyfriend's gut. Just like the punch, his words hit him hard. Boyfriend felt limp, he couldn't do anything. He was useless.

The other boy lifted his hand again, and the smaller braced himself.

On the other hand, Pico was getting worried. He had been waiting about 10 minutes for Boyfriend at their meeting spot. People usually tend to stay away from Pico, since after the incident, someone started a rumor that he was with the school shooters. So it was usually him, his two friends; Nene and Darnell, and Boyfriend.

Unfortunately, Nene was skipping with Darnell. Pico didn't want to leave Boyfriend at school alone, especially after this morning.

As he looked around for his blue haired partner, his phone went off. Pico picked it up and saw it was Nene, he opened the text up to see a picture of Pico carrying Boyfriend with the caption; "Better go check on your little pet."

He got up in a hurry and made his way to Boyfriend's last class before lunch. He turned the corner and saw the fight in front of him. He furrowed his eyebrows. One of the boys started insulting Boyfriend and punching his stomach.

"Why would anyone love you? You're weak and pathetic, and your hair is unnatural and stupid. I'm not even gonna mention your stupid ass name-."

Pico snuck up behind the boy. He tapped his shoulder. The kid let go of Boyfriend and turned around. Pico wished he could take a picture of his face, it looked like he had an aneurysm.

Pico grabbed the kid's collar. "Jeez dude, does your ass ever get jealous of the shit that comes out of your mouth? Maybe try finding somewhere that isn't a whore house to find insults and use them on people that have the same brain capacity as you, you fucking airhead."

Pico pushed him onto the ground and got down on his knee. "Don't get me started on those punches, want me to show you-?"

"HEY!" The three boys turned their head to the end of the hall, where a teacher was standing. Pico stood up and looked down at the scared little shit lying on the ground.

"If I ever find out you're hurting him, you're dead. You understand, asswipe?"

The boy nodded his head and turned to run away, but Pico grabbed him. He called out to the teacher and started walking towards him, so he could explain what had happened.

Boyfriend hugged himself and smiled. Now that the boys who bullied him knew that Pico was on his side, he'd be safe. It'd be one worry that he didn't have to deal with anymore.

But how'd they know? Did someone go through his phone and leak his pictures to everyone? He didn't know, and he didn't really care. He knew Pico would protect him.

But he can't protect him from everything.

After speaking to the teacher, Pico came back to check in Boyfriend. "Where does it hurt the most, and how much?"

"I think what hurt the most was his words." Boyfriend shuddered and hugged Pico.

Pico held him close to his arms. "C'mon, that was stupid. Nothing he said was true, your hair is really c-"

"No, he said something else."

"What'd he say?" Pico started stroking Boyfriend's hair.

"He said I was a.. a f-f-" Boyfriend couldn't even spit it out. He's heard his dad call him that a couple times, but hearing it from someone else crushed his heart. The hand on his back tightened it's grip on Boyfriend.

"You don't have to say it, I know what it is." Pico held onto his lover. He never wanted to let go. People were so cruel, and he knew too much about that.

The bell for the end of lunch rang, and people started flooding the halls. They stared at the two in disgust as they walked by. Pico let go and stood up and Boyfriend looked at him in confusion. Pico held out his hand and the other took it.

"You seem more upset than usual, other than the fact people won't leave you alone." Pico started as he gently pulled Boyfriend to their next class. "What's going on, B?"

"I'll tell you later at the hideout, ok?" Boyfriend looked away and Pico stopped him.

"Hey, I'm right here. No one else matters, if you need to, we can go right now. Your mental health matters more than school." Pico grabbed both of his hands and held them up to his mouth and kissed them. "You're forgetting I'm your boyfriend. I'm always here for you."

Boyfriend looked down at his hands. "Let's go now."  Pico smiled and caressed the others cheek, dropped his other hand. "But we'd be skipping.. My dad would find out."

"He doesn't have to find out shit." Pico gently tugged his hand. "Now c'mon, don't worry about it."
