Vermilion (A Joey x Corey Story) !DISCONTINUED!

A fight and a otherwise perfect day

Get ready, this is a long one- 

Corey's POV (later that day)

Walking out of my last class, I head down the halls to my locker. Fumbling with the lock, I open it and put my things in there blindly. I was in a rush. It was a dumb reason, but I was. I was actually excited for something.

"Hey, so I was thinking, how about after school we go get some coffee or something? Maybe go to the skate park, if you skate." Joey suggested, laughing at the end. My eyes lit up. "Oh, uh yea. I'd love to. I do skate, that's actually how I get to school." I said. Joey smiled. "Good! So, 3:30?" He asked. I smiled and nodded. "Alright! Well I have-" "Joey cmon! We gotta go!" Sid yelled. "I'm coming! Jesus Christ.." Joey mumbled. "I do have to leave at like..4:45 though, I have track." Joey said. "That's alright." I replied. He smiled. "Alright, well I'll see you there!" He called, jogging down the hall. "Yea, see you."

That was probably the first time in years that I've been invited to something. Plus, it was Joey. We've only known each other for about 2 days, but he's the nicest person I think I've ever met. He's so open and understanding. He's just very kind and non-judging. Everything I'm not. I think that's why we get together so good. You'd think because we're polar opposites we wouldn't get along, but I think that just connects us. And now, we're going to get coffee and skate.

I sighed happily and grabbed my bookbag, almost dropping my skate board in the process. I walked down the main steps and opened to big doors in the front of school and was about to put my skate board down when Brain and a couple other douchebag looking people came up in front of me. "Can I help you?" I asked. "Yea. Your twat ass embarrassed me in front of the entire school." Brain said. "Mhm, 'cus you were picking on Joey." I said. Brain smiled and looked at his friends. "Oh, you that fag's boyfriend or something?" He asked. I scoffed. "No. I'm not gay and I don't think Joey is either so I'd suggest to stop calling him that." I said. "Or what?" Brain mocked. "I'll fucking knock your teeth out." I said. If I wanted to I honestly could and I think he had a feeling I could to too because he paused before responding. "Listen freak." Brain trailed off.

Suddenly, someone came up behind me and put me in a choke hold. I gasped and tried to pry his arms off. Then, Brain got in my face. He was so close, in fact, you could see the mark I left on his face from earlier. "I don't know who you think you are, but I'd shut your fucking mouth before I shut it for you." Brian barked. I smiled while being choked. "Try me." I breathed. Brain backed up. He looked back at his friends, giving them a look I couldn't completely understand. But then he looked back at me and smiled. "Since you're meeting up with that little faggot, how about we give him something..nice..to look at." He said. Before I could ask how he knew we were meeting up, I was struck in the chest. I gasped and winced at the pain. There was another punch. "This-..This isn't fair! You want..a fight? Let me go and I'll show you one!" I coughed. 

That got the attention of the crowd scattered around the school. Whispers began to rise as Brain formed a smile. "Fine then. Bruce, let him go." Brain ordered. And on command, that kid behind me let go. I wheezed trying to catch my breath. As I looked up, I saw Brian start to bring his fist back, and when he did, I grabbed it, twisted it, and punched his jaw from the side. That caused him to stumble to the side. I was still out of breath. "Oh you're fucking dead." He said.

Joeys POV

"Ooo guys, something's goin' on!" Jim said as he pointed to the crowd circling something. "Of course you saw it Jim, fucking giraffe." Chris said. "You're just jealous you're short AND probably have a small dick." Jim barked. The group gasped. "DAMN." Mick commented. Chris scoffed and smiled. "You think that I have a small dick?!" He exclaimed. I rolled my eyes and tried to drain out their bickering. In the meanwhile, I tried to look over that crowd. But, of course I couldn't, so I started to walk over. "Joey! Where you goin' man?" Paul asked. "To see what's goin' on." I replied. "Shits about to go down here though." Paul said. I shrugged. I continued to walk over. As I got closer, I could see they were circling a fight that was ending. I sighed and was about to leave when I heard something that caught my attention.
