Vance's POV:
I open my locker as I over hear Bruce Yamada complaining. "I just wish girls would stop coming after me! Whenever im trying to go to class a whole mob of girls form and chase me." "Have you tried telling them you're dating someone?" "Yeah! They don't believe me!" They obviously wont if he doesn't have proof.I'd give him advice but he'd probably just ignore me or something. The bell rings as I grab my science book closing my locker seeing his white teeth shine on the cam lock.
He's in my science class, everyone wants to be his lab partner..he's so pretty. Not like I'm GAY or anything..no ew me? Gay? I don't think so.
"Hey! Vance right?" Why is he talking to me.. "Yeah?" I say walking faster. "Hold on slow down now! I'm not gonna hurt you." "But I would, why are you talking to me??" "Hey! Don't be like that, you sit behind me don't you??" "Yeah, and?" "We-" he bumps into someone, well ouch. "Hey! Watch where you're g-..Oh no! Please don't hurt me! I didn't mean that! I'll leave you and Vance alone!" The kid says running away.
"The hell?" "Wait a minute..the kid got scared 'cause I was with you!" "Yeah I don't understand but okay." "Look, meet me behind the building after school, just us two." "Uh, okay?" I say walking into the classroom walking to my seat as Bruce sits down at his.
Someone taps me on the shoulder behind me, it's a girl. "Hey! Do you mind passing this to Bruce?" Weird, usually people don't let me pass things to him since they're all scared of me. "Why, you like him?" "Huh? Oh! No! He's all yours, I'm just telling him that someone wants to fight him." Wait. 'He's all yours'?? What's that supposed to mean? Hold on, someone wants to.. fight him??
"Mind telling me who?" "Kid named Oliver." "Last name?" "Oliver Megan." Oh fuck no, He is not ruining Bruce's beautiful face. I pass the note to Bruce as he reads it turning my way looking at the girl behind me. "Bruce." "Huh?" He says turning to me. "Don't worry about him, just meet me outside like you said." "Okay." He says turning around.
Bruce's POV:
Of course someone wants to fight me! Oliver seriously needs to leave me alone! Sure im flirty with girls, but I do have a secret..I'm into guys, I've never felt like I'd die for a girl, I mostly think about boys..one in particular, but he probably isn't gay.
Class ends as everyone grabs there books dashing out the room. "Bruce, Vance, you two stay." Well great. "What's wrong Mr.Evans?" "Bruce I'm gonna need you to tutor Vance, every single Tuesday and Thursday, he has the lowest grade in my class and you have the highest, I'm positively sure you can help him bring his grade up." Ooh!
"Sure thing." I say turning to Vance smiling at him. "And you better be tutoring, nothing else." "What else would we do?" He questions. "You're dismissed." He says as we both walk out the door heading to our lockers.
"Uh, Bruce." "Yeah?" "You go ahead and go outside I gotta do something real quick." He says. "Sure thing." I say running away before anyone can chase me.
I walk behind the building as I sit down on a brown old bench waiting for Vance as I hear yelling from the building. "Go Vance! Beat him up!" What?? I stand on the bench looking through one of the windows seeing Vance beating up Oliver Megan. Wow.
Vance's POV:
I punch him more as blood coughs out of his mouth, I bet the janitors hate me. "Leave Bruce and me the fuck alone you little bitch." I say throwing him into a wall.The crowd cheers ad I slowly walk out the school, I walk to the back as I see Bruce leaning on the red brick wall.
"Are you okay!?" He says running up to me. "I'm..fine?" "Vance! You really need to stop getting in trouble!" He says pulling out bandages from his bag. "Why the hell do you have those in your bag?" "Just in case." He says putting them on my hands holding them as he looks at me. "Your hands are cold." "So?" I say as he sighs.
"Vance, stay out of trouble, please." "You're not my mom.." "But I am your friend." Oh, 'friend'? I feel weird..I feel something tingling in my stomach..
"What do you even want?" "I wanna ask." "Go ahead." "You know how that kid freaked out once he realized I was with you?" "Yeah, what about it?" "Maybe that could work with everyone else too." "So you want me, like, everywhere you go??" "No I..How do I say this.." "Just spit it out." "I think we should date." What. "Huh?" "Like, fake! Fake date! We act like we're dating but, we aren't." Oh.
"That's the most dumbest idea, just say I'm friends with you and if they cross the line I'll beat them up or whatever.." "No, Vance I don't want you getting in trouble." "And I don't want people ruining your pre- your face." Almost said pretty..
Bruce's POV:
The thing is I don't want Vance getting into more trouble, he's been through a lot already and I don't wanna put more pressure on him.I feel like he was gonna say pretty when he said he doesn't want anyone to ruin my face, I'll take that as a compliment.
"Bruce?" "Hm?" "Are we done talking? I gotta go to Grab n Go, I'm trying to beat my high score." "Oh! Right yeah sorry I zoned out for a sec.." "It's fine, I'll see you later Bruce." "Mhm.." "Stay safe." He says as he walks away, 'stay safe'? Is he starting to care about me? I mean, I hope so.
Can you just imagine our title? "Bruce Yamada! Dating the Vance hopper??" Or "Vance hopper dating THE Bruce Yamada??" Or "Vance hopper kissing Bruce Yamada? Confirmed they're dating!?" Since we're both popular, him, in a bad way. Me? In a good way.
I can't wait to get closer to him! Not like we're gonna actually date but seriously! Being friends with Vance hopper!? Makes me feel so good!
I can't wait for tomorrow, it'll be so fun! Unless he gets suspended..but it's just a bloody nose! It's not like Oliver is fucked up, he deserves it anyway.
