"you make me happy Black"
————
"Gram stop, you deserve better than me, why can't you understand that? You're worth so much, I'm not going to give you flowers or go to the movies with you, or do anything of that shit"
"No, you stop. Stop telling me who or what I deserve. you're worth it to me, and I don't want all that shit. I just want to spend time and be there for you."
"whatever Gram, I'm out"
I quickly grabbed him and held him in place so he couldn't leave
"How do you feel about me?
"I don't know how I feel"
then he was gone.
Black POV:
I needed to get away from Gram, I can't lie to him like that, I mean it's true, I don't know how I feel. I like Gram, I haven't known him long but every second with him was amazing. I want to be his friend and be there for him. I want to be close to him I just don't know how close I want to be
After the talk in the hallway I went to my next class, I'm thankful Gram isn't in the class with me. I need space and I bet he needs it too.
I sit down and wait for class to begin, a girl I never seen before sits next to me, she seems nervous but I don't say anything
The teacher walks in and before she starts the lesson she introduces a new student
"Hello class! Today we have a new student who is sitting in the back"
The girl next to me stands up nervously and waves to everyone
"Her name is Eugene, please everyone be nice to her. Okay now let's begin the lesson"
Eugene sits back down and the teacher starts the lesson. Eugene was beautiful, she has big brown eyes, beautiful brown hair, her smile was gorgeous. Everything about her was perfect. She must've seen me starting because she turns toward me
"Hey, I'm Eugene"
"Mk"
"your supposed to tell me yours now"
"why would I do that?"
"why wouldn't you?"
"Be quiet and pay attention, don't wanna make a bad impression do you?"
She smiles at that and turns her attention back to the lesson and I do the same. The lesson goes on and I see Eugene glancing at me a couple times but I don't mind. The lesson finally ends and everyone gets up and leaves. I see Eugene walk out and I follow her. I start walking on the side of her
"Black" I said randomly
she turns toward me confused and doesn't say anything for a while
"huh?"
"My name? You're the one who fucking asked for it"
"Oh yeah, Glad you stopped being an asshole and gave it to me"
"yeah whatever"
"yeah whatever" she mocks me
"Fuck you"
"Fuck me? I'd love that"
"What?"
"I'm joking, calm down"
We both start laughing for awhile, the bell rings signaling it's time for lunch. Since she's new I show her where to go and sit with her. We both order our food and go find somewhere to sit. Once we sit down, in the distance I see Gram ordering his food, he catches me looking and I quickly turn away. Eugene notices this
"You know him or something?"
"Mhm"
"Okay then invite him over here"
"Absolutely fucking not" I glare at her
"What, why?"
"none of your fucking business"
"Fuck you asshole, I was just asking"
"fuck me? I'd love that" i mock the same words she used on me before
"you're annoying" she says as she rolls her eyes
"I never knew"
I look back at Gram and he looks annoyed. He goes and sits with someone who must be one of his friends. He looks familiar, I think he is in one of my classes. I pretty sure his name is Yok.
Gram doesn't look back at me and keeps all his attention on Yok. I can't tell what they are talking about but it's not like I care. He has no reason to be upset with me. I mean, I guess he does but I'm doing it for him. I can't give him what he deserves and he doesn't understand that
~~
The bell rings and I get up from the table where Eugene and I were sitting
"Where is your next class?" I asked her
"Room 213 what about you?"
"Room 217, since the class rooms are close so each other we can walk together"
"Aww look at you being sweet"
"Do you want me to walk with you or not?"
"Yeah, yeah, let's go" she grabbed my hand and started dragging me
I guided her to her class and then went to mine. The whole class my mind wandered to Eugene and Gram. I miss Gram, I want to talk to him again I just don't know what to say. He probably hates me right now for walking away from him but I just wanted to get my point across. I also think about Eugene, I like her a lot, she's fun to be around, maybe I should hangout with her to get my mind off of Gram. The bell rings and I get out of my chair and head out of the room
On my way out a kid bumps into me in the hallway
"Shit sorry!"
"it's fine"
Then when I looked at him I realized it was Yok and he must've done the same
"You're Black right?"
"Mhm"
"We need to talk, now."
Before I get a chance to answer he grabbed my wrist and started dragging me somewhere. He ends up taking me to the same hallway I dragged Gram to
"What the fuck do you want?"
"stop being an asshole Black, and especially stop being an asshole to Gram"
"What does Gram have to do with anything?"
"Stop worrying about yourself for once and talk to him"
"Worrying about myself? Everything I am doing is for him! Not for me! I want him to be happy! He deserves better than me! So don't try and tell me that all I'm worrying about it myself!"
oh my god, why did I just say all that to him
"Black, you know your true feelings, either hide them or show them"
Yok looked at me one last time and then walked away
