Tangtho: A highschool Au

2: Adjusting

"What the fuck are you doing in here"?

The words echoed through the dorm room. As Etho looked up into Tango's eyes he noticed how they positively radiated anger and hatred. How ironic, the Ice wolf and the fire demon. Hot and cold, fire and ice, Etho and Tango. As Etho looked at Tango he noticed how deep red his eyes were. "Well, demanded Tango, what are you doing in here"? Anger surged through Etho as the taller boys glared at him." I fucking live here, you prick", he yelled back. The air turned cold, and ice started to form on the ground near Etho's feet. Tango's demon tail started to twitch angrily, his wings unfolding from his back. Claws started to pop out form Etho's fingernail's and he could feel a snarl growing at the back of his throat.

"Etho, a voice called from the hallway, you good"? Etho snarled at Tango before turning round towards the door. Etho opened the door and left leaving Tango alone in the room. Sighing Tango turned and flopped down on his bed.

When Etho finally got back, it was past 10:00. Without even sparing a glance at Tango he walked over to his cupboard and grabbed out his clothes. Tango who had been watching him the whole time was annoyed. Sure, Etho and him weren't exactly on great terms but surely, he could at least say hi to him. Etho finally glanced at him, then left for the bathroom. A few seconds later Tango heard the shower turn on. When Etho finally came out Tango heart practically stopped.

He wasn't wearing a shirt and holy shit the man was toned. Tango could feel his cheeks beginning to heat up. The one thing that confused him was that despite not wearing a shirt he still had the mask on." What are you staring at bitch", Etho snapped at him. "Nothing", Tango murmured. 

Etho glared at him one last time before flopping onto his bed. As he went onto his phone, he realised he'd received a couple text from Wels. Giggling as he looked at the memes he looked over at Tango. Tango was staring at his own phone, so Etho quickly pulled down his mask and sent a photo of his face to Wels. He pulled it up quickly before Tango saw him." 

Etho was lying there comfortably scrolling through twitter when he heard Tango speak. "Have you had any dinner"? Tango asked. Etho just grunted in response. Etho was surprised when suddenly Tango was standing next to his bed. Grabbing Etho by the arms and pinning him to his bed Tango looked down at him with fury. Steam curled and hissed from where Tango's hands were touching Etho's arms." Etho, Tango growled, I know you don't like me, but we are stuck in here together. Can we just put our past behind us and move on"? "Please", and suddenly Tango's eyes lost their rage.

 Tears began to form in his eyes and Etho had the overwhelming desire to hug him. So that's what he did. Gathering the small demon/blaze hybrid into his arms he began to hum a song. As he did Tango began to drift off to sleep. Although he was still awake when Etho whispered" I can't forgive you yet, but I will try". Tango soon fell asleep with hope filling his heart.
