starry eyed (tyler nguyen-baker) !!!discontinued!!!

"what's your deal?"

"hey, mei!"

y/n greeted, waving a hand. the rest of the group waved as well, warm smiles on their faces.

a stiff smile appeared on mei's face, "hello bestfriends. what is up?"

"woah okay, miss terminator. what's with you?" y/n asked, falling in step with their friend.

miriam poked the hat mei wore, "yeah and what's with the tuque?"

chuckling nervously, mei hunched over, "uhh..bad hair day."

"did you, like, work out this morning?" abby sniffed mei, backing away.

"i got you, girl." priya pulled out deodorant, out of nowhere.

as mei rubbed deodorant on herself, y/n noticed that she looked worried, panicked even. her eyes darted all over the place. they wanted to tell her what tyler had done but seeing her like this made them hesitate but they had to save her some of the embarrassment.

"y'know.." they started, placing a hand on mei's shoulder, "tyler's been telling everyone about the daisy mart.."

"whaaat?"

"he said your mom went nuts!" abby added.

"and that you're kind of a perv."

stopping in her tracks, mei looked red with anger, "I AM NOT A-"

taking a deep breath, mei calmed herself, "tyler is an insecure jerkwad. words were exchanged and slightly uncomfortable secrets were revealed. end of stooo..."

y/n raised a brow when mei's voice trailed off, a dreamy look overtaking her features. they followed her gaze to one of their friends, carter.

miriam snapped mei out of her trance, "why are you staring at carter murphey-mayhew?"

"i wasn't!" mei defended before catching a glimpse of something taped to a locker. it was a poster of one of mei's drawings about devon, captioned with 'mei & devon', 'ride or die' and '4*eva'.

tearing it off, mei hastily crumpled it.

"ugh!" miriam groaned, "tyler keeps putting these up!"

y/n heard cackling behind them and turned to see tyler, yet again putting up another of those horrid posters.

"NOT FUNNY TYLER!" abby growled. y/n felt their blood boil, watching as tyler mocked mei while their friends defended her. hearing mei growl in anger, they turned to comfort her but stopped in their tracks when they saw the utterly embarrassed and aggravated expression on her face. deciding that the situation would worsen the longer tyler stayed, they stomped up to him and pulled him away from the rest of the group.

"hey, let me go!" tyler yelled, struggling in y/n's grip.

they remained silent, choosing to ignore him until they both had reached a private place. it took a while since tyler was resisting but  y/n had managed to situate them underneath the bleachers.

"ugh! what was that for dork?" tyler yanked his hand from theirs.

y/n stood quietly with their back to him, trying to conceal their face which was contorted in anger. they clenched their fists, breathing deeply.

"hey, idiot! i'm talking to yo-"

y/n turned to him, grabbing him by the shirt collar, "what is your DEAL?"

their faces were inches apart making tyler flush, "..wha?"

"what's your deal? why are you such a jerk to mei!?" y/n continued, "i may have not been around long enough to know the full extent of your bullying but something tells me that you've been way harsher to her now that i'm here."

they let go of his collar and took a step back,

"what...happened?"
