Charlie:
The lunch bell rings and me, Tao, and Aled were going to meet up at our usual table. I was going to tell them about Ben. I simply cannot deal with this on my own. I walk over to the table and it's just Tao today. Perfect time to tell him. I was thinking of only telling him anyway. "I need to tell you something." I said with all seriousness. When it comes to being serious and deep with conversations, Tao is all over it. Except for maybe speaking a little too loud sometimes, being the reason I got outed to the school in year 9. Mmm..
"You can always talk to me Charlie! Fire away!" He replied. "Well, do you know a boy called Ben Hope?" I asked in a slight mumble. "Oh, Yeah! He's in my main classes this year because he had to repeat. Why do you ask?" "Well.." I stuttered, cleared my throat, and blurted it all out. "Before I met Nick, We were meeting up sometimes in the morning and in breaks, a-and, uh--h, I found out he had a girlfriend and decided to break up with him over text. After a rugby practice, He texted me and said he just wanted to talk, so we met in the library and we started shouting at eachother. After he got too fed up of me, he pinned me against a wall and s-s-sex-xuallly a-assulte-d me." Tao was absolutely fucking speechless. He just looked down at my tie and stared. After a long pause, he came over, and hugged me as tight as he could. And I hugged him back. He sat down next to me and asked me a few questions as his arm was around me. "Do you have any classes with him?" He asked, "Uh, he is sitting where Nick used to sit. In form.." I said in my shy voice. "Oh fuck." He just said. He comforted me for the rest of lunch and thanked me for telling him. The bell rung and we went our seperate ways for our mains because this year I was moved up a level in class, so i wasn't in the same class as Tao anymore. It was just me.
Tao Xu:
I walk into class and Ben was in the seat next to me. Great. In maths, we always have a seating plan. It fucking sucks. I slowly walk over, avoiding all eye contact with him, and sit down. "Hey mate. Alright?" He said, "Alright." I reply, and look down at my book. "What's wrong with you?" "what the fuck do you mean 'whats wrong with me'?" I replied with slight anger, now knowing what he had done to Charlie. "Well u look like you haven't gotten sleep in days?!" He said "You just look annoyed and overtired. "YK WHAT!?! IM NOT!" Everyone turned, and I lowered my voice. They turned away and I whispered into his ear, "I know what you fucking did." "What? What do you mean?" I knew he would know what I meant when I said, "Charlie. Spring." "Oh fuck. ~" He mumbled to himself. "Does anyone else know?" "IS THAT THE FIRST THING U DECIDE TO FUCKING SAY?! YOUR SUCH A PRICK! GO TO FUCKING HELL!" I yelled. Everyone turned, but just in time, Mr Farouk walked into the room. "Who was yelling in here?" He asked. No one said anything. God I love my class. Except for Ben. Fuck him.
Time passes and the bell rings. Thank god I have a free period. As I walk out, Ben gives me a really horrible death stare, and I giggle enough for him to physically see me. He felt like an idiot. I didn't have to feel bad for anything! I obviously wasn't going to tell anyone else though. Unless I decide to blackmail him for something. Tbh if i could, I would. He deserves it.
Nick:
I get a call from Charlie and I immediately answer it. His voice sounds all trembly and shaky. "N-nick, I can-n't do this year. I j-just can't." "What?! Char!?! Are you ok? Why is your voice all shaky? Where are you?" I asked with anxiousness. I hear him take a deep breath and say the words; "Ben is ne-ext to m-me in form." I freeze. This can't be fucking happening. I knew he repeated a year, but what are the chances of him being put in Charlies form room, IN MY SEAT!?!? "Charlie. Charlie I'm so sorry. Is everything ok today?" I ask, "Well, he is in all of Tao's mains, and yeah, I plucked up the courage to tell Tao and he took it quite well. "Wait, it's class time right now.? Are you wagging again?" I ask "Yes, I'm sorry. I just needed a break." "Hey. No S word. Don't be sorry. I understand." We stay on the call for the rest of Charlie's class time, until I hear the bell ring on Charlie's side of the phone. "I think you should go Char. Go have lunch with Tao. You have drums next lesson. The rest of the day will be fine." "Yeah, your right." He replies, "Alright Char, love you." "Love you too" He says, "Bye :))" "Bye :)"
Charlie:
I walk over to the table, where Tao is, and I see someone else, talking to him. It wasn't Aled, because he wasn't here. And also, he had blonde hair. This person was taller, and had brown hair. No. No. Please no. I walk to the table and as I get closer, I hear sturn, shouting voices. Tao stands up and gets real close to him. "TAO! What's going on!?" Tao turns his head and The boy tunrs around. B e n. "I see you told your little dick of a friend about us." "WELL I COULDN'T JUST KEEP IT TO MYSELF!? You are sitting next to me in fucking form?!" "Why don't you go get a knife and cut yourself you little selfish fag." Ben said with pure confidence. "THAT'S FUCKING IT MATE. HOW FUCKING DARE YOU!?!??!" Tao had enough and swung a punch at Ben. Ben dodged it and punched Tao square in the eye. "TAO! NO!!! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!!!!" It was too late, they were already ontop of eachother, pulling eachothers hair out. The whole oval came over and dozens of students pulled out their phones and started recording. They were all cheering Tao's name or Ben's. I was fed up. I ran into the circle and pulled Ben off Tao, and onto the ground. I pulled Tao up, and ran out of there. We both ran into the art classroom and sat in the corner, below the window, so no one could see us. "What the fuck Tao? What did you say to him?" I asked with pure anger, "He just came over shouting slurs at me and I just didn't know what I was thinking. I'm so sorry Charlie." I pulled him into a hug and said; "It's going to be ok, we're in this together. I looked at his face, his eye was dark blue. "Oh Taoooo. Your eye." I said, "Lets go get an ice pack."
