Chapter 8 - energy drinks

Listen as you read ⬆️⬆️

When henry got to school, he saw ralph
standing and waiting for him at the entrance as usual.

Peter went always had his nerdy and weird book club next to their entrance behind the large bushes (There was a table and benches there). It was very dirty in the beginning but perfect peter decided to clean it and put a table cloth over it. You kinda had to push back the bushes a little to actually get to the table.

Henry put his arm around ralph's neck as they did their little handshake, he noticed ralph was a little more tired then usual today. he was more quiet and always had his head down or either laying his head on henry's shoulder, henry never minded it, sometimes henry would even rub ralph's head or put his head against his.

H - "You okay ralph?"
R - "yea... just a little tired, that's all"
H - "mm alrightt, but if you need anything just tell me"
R - "i will, don't worry"

Ralph liked how henry was always nice to him and only him, well besides the name calling. they walked to history together and sat in the back row. The lights were off because the teacher wanted his projector on and he like sit better that way. they both pulled out their school laptops, henry signed in while ralph just put his head down. henry rubbed ralph's back as he stared at the teachers projector. later on in the class, ralph woke up by a sudden loud thud and jolted up. It was sour susans dumb hydro flask knocking to the ground, ralph quietly groaned. quiet enough for no one to hear but henry. Henry chuckled softly as he was typing down the teachers notes on his laptop, ralph sighed and rubbed his face before putting his head down once more. ralph smiled at him henry, admiring his messy light brown hair.

Ralph's POV:

henry stopped typing since he was done but he was still paying attention to the teacher. You may think the HORRID henry would never pay attention to school, but he does. he doesn't have very good grades but he has decent ones, like an average student. I somehow never noticed it before but henry has such pretty features. of course, louise was next to him. but i notice the look on his face, he's looking at henry. not in a bad way tho, it's like... he's attracted to him or something.
I slightly frown. I saw henry's free hand just hanging off the chair, i grabbed it (not in a hard way) and intertwined my fingers with his. Henry glanced at me for a second, his beautiful brown eyes and a tint of pink on his cheeks.
I look back at him with a smile. Henry sighed quietly and locked his fingers with mine. I closed my eyes, feeling a warm sensation in my heart. when suddenly, i felt my arm rose and something soft against the back of my hand.
I jolted my eyes open and saw henry putting his lips on the back of my hand as his thumb rubbed my finger.

Henry's POV:

I thought it would be funny if i did something couple-like. I brought up our intertwined hands up to my lips and kissed the back of ralph's palm as my thumb caressed his finger. It was funny when ralph got all red and flustered, and kindve... cute too. what am i saying? i'm not gay. I looked over and saw louise, resting his cheek on his palm and he doodled on the corner of his paper. i grabbed my pencil with my free hand and drew a penis on it. I giggled and put down my pencil to cover my mouth from anyone hearing my giggling. in the corner of my eyes, i saw ralph frowning again. i went back to kissing the back of his hand, he gave me a small smile and closed his eyes  as he started to drift off to sleep again. but then suddenly -

*Bell rings*

I'm guessing ralph lost track of time and got scared when the bell ringed.

Ralph's POV:

I jolted awake from the bell, henry softly let go of my hand and ruffled my hair. the teacher turned the lights back on and i tried to get used to the brightness.

H - "Cmon sleepy head, can't keep sleeping in class forever yknow"
R - "mmm...whatever.."

Henry chuckled as i sat up to stretch, henry pulled out something from his backpack and gave it to me. as i tried to see what it was through my blurry and sleepy vision, henry saw that i was struggling.

H - "It's a energy drink, bozo. drink it"
R - "I'll do it later, it won't even have an affect on me"
H - "well yea, no shit. but later in the day you'll start to get the boost."
R - "ugh, whatever"
H - "just drink it, twerp"
R - "yea yea alright"

3rd person POV:

Ralph stood up, almost tumbling over from standing up too fast before henry supported his body weight. ralph grabbed his backpack and opened the bottle of sour waste.

*clank*

Ralph took a swing and then passed it back to henry who did the same. They both went out and stopped at their lockers, putting their backpacks in before going to their next class which was science.
