Xarious was still lost in thought when Ruby came by. He didn't even realize that she had sat down to. Ruby and Zurious where talking about something that had to deal with art and stuff. The two were also on the year book club as well. They tried and tried to get Xarious's attention but his mind whent else where. He finally snapped out of it when Zuri slammed her hands down on the table witch again made Xarious jump up five feet.
"Again child. What is up with you scarring me. God damn." He said as he settled back down from his second heart attack
" Oh please. You would do the same damn thing to me. So hush it." She said as she sat down from her side of the table.
"Would not"
"Would to"
"Nope"
"Y-"the two twins where cut off by Ruby. Ruby was slightly annoyed at their bickering but was also used it by this point. Yes she and Xarious where a thing but she also grew up with them. These three where like peas in a pod. Inseparable since they were two years old.
"Enough you two. Zuri stop scarring your brother. Xarious your sister is right. You would scare her. You've done it before" She finally said after getting the two to be quiet. Once she was pleased with her solution she cleared her throat before speaking once more.
"As I was saying. Xarious we could use your help for the year book. We need a poser for the Football team for pictures. Zurious said that we could use you as a model and she is right. You're the best Quarterback anyone has ever seen. You'd be perfect. Not to mention your body build would be appealing to the eye."  

She explained. Xarious was quite for a long while. He was thinking about what Ruby had proposed.

"Way to sexulize my brother subtly Ruby" Zurious said in a almost jokingly manner.

 "I was not trying to. If we look at the way he is fit and his body is more people would agree that it is appealing. Plus this is part of our project as well. I am not entirely sure how it is but it is. So deal with it" 

Ruby said sighing and rubbing the bridge of her nose. She was starting to get irritated with Zurious but she knew that Zurious had really bad ADHD so it's hard for her to focus even with her meds. Xarious finally came up with an answer for her proposal.
"Depending on what pictures you need I will do it. But please don't make me regret helping you two. God knows what you have in store for me." He said. But he didn't know what he was getting himself into. He was going in blindly and would follow their instructions.
"Yay! Thank you so much! You don't know how much of a life saver you truly are big brother" Zurious sad happily. Xarious sat back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling.  He was lost in deep thought about many things. The fact that he only came out to one person in the whole world, another thing about the playoff game this Friday was well. It was the game right before state.  The stakes where high for their school and everyone was on edge. They where known for never had been defeated since Xarious began going there. That was Freshman year. He is in his Senor year. For four years White Lake High has been at the top of the charts for being undefeated. But all that could change. It could change this Friday or it could change at state. So everything is at stake.  Now he has to help his sister and their childhood best friend. Everything was bubbling up through his mind when the person he really likes steps in. This male was the cutest person to ever walk the earth. He was a Transfer student from France. Paris France to exact. Xarious was his first friend here at White Lake. His name was Alois. He couldn't help but fall for him. Alois was walking towards Xarious's table. Alois was usually uncomfortable with being around other people when it comes to socializing and making friends. All except Xarious. When they had first met Alois had talked about one oh his favorite shows. Supernatural. Alois had said that he had to turn the subtitles on to French because when he first started watching the show he didn't understand English very well.

FLASHBACK:

Xarious was in the locker room on his phone. He would be in the weight room working out but he had a leg injury due to a pass game. It was the game for Area. It was away at Nervmore high. He was resting while the rest of the team was in the weight room working out. The intercom had come on and the Principal Ms. Voyko had called Xarious to the AP office. He was a bit slow getting to the office because he was on crutches but he finally made it. Once he made it he saw a boy about his age that he has never seen before. Xarious had believed that he was new and made his way to introduce himself. 

"Hello there. I am Xarious. Pleasure to meet you" He said holding his hand out. He struggled trying to keep balance since he was putting all of his weight on one leg. The foreign male looked at him with an eye brow raised and shook his hand.  Xarious could tell that it was not a good first impression of meeting someone new. To have a an injury like he does. He was sure that the new student was thinking that he was a clumsy child or someone who doesn't care about his health when in fact he did.

"Nice to meet you Xarious. I am Alois." He said in response to Xarious. Xarious gave a awkward smile and cleared his throat.

"So.. um are you new? I mean I know that your new. I've never seen you here but um you know..he...." Xarious tried to make conversation but ended up tripping up over his words. He was flustered and couldn't help but blush because he found him really cute. Alois couldn't help but laugh at Xarious. When he started to laugh his accent came out and Xarious blushed majorly. He had a thing for accents especially French accents. But he didn't dare let anyone know how he felt for guys. He cleared his throat and began to speak to Alois.
"Your accent is really pretty. Where are you from exactly? I apologize if  it's inappropriate to ask."  Xarious asked in a sheepish voice. He didn't want to make the new student uncomfortable an d make a fool out of him self . Alois looked at him and smiled. When he smiled Xarious's heart beat went faster. He couldn't tell if he liked Alois or not but his heart seemed to take a liking to his own. Alois just chuckled and looked at Xarious and shook his head

"It's not inappropriate to ask. I'm from Paris, France." Alois finally replied when he was done laughing and regained his posture. 

"France? I've always wanted to go to there and see what it was like. I'm actually taking French but I'm not any good at it. I wanted to learn French so when I go to France I don't make a fool out of my self." Xarious explained but still didn't make eye contact with Alois. He felt that Alois was embarrassed by him of his appearance. A messed up leg  that jutted out at an awkward angle despite the fact that it had a cast. Sweat running down  the sides of his face and-

End of Flashback

Xarious was cut out of his mind when Alois came and sat down. He scooted the chair really loudly and huffed when he sat. Xarious looked at him with an eye brow raised and sat up some.

"Who pissed in your bed this morning?" Xarious asked as Alois leaned on to the table with his head down. He looked up at Xarious With his head still on his hands. He still kept quiet but just looked at Xarious as if he was hoping that he could read Alois's mind. And hat case Xarious did. They were very close despite that Alois had only been there for a few months or so. But even then he could understand. Xarious did not need to say much of asking of why Alois was so upset. It was simple: He already knew. Alois had planed to come out to his parents one day and Xarious wanted to be supportive and encouraged him. But when Alois came out as Bisexual his parents  immediately kicked him out the house and it has been a uprising battle  about who he is and who his parents want him to be.  It took a while but Xarious was able to convince Alois's parents for Alois to come back home. They only agreed if Alois stopped 'buying into that propaganda' and be the boy they wanted and start going back to church every Sunday and Wednesday church school.  

"I just don't understand why they can't let me be me and accept me for who I am. I make the best grades in this school. Hell I make the best grades with in this state it's self. I do everything they ask.. I just want them to be proud of me for once.. Is that so hard to ask?" Alois finally said breaking the silence. Xarious didn't really have much to say. He wasn't really used to being able to comfort his friends but he tried his best to. He would listen while they vented to him and would give them advice when they really needed it.
