(This includes fighting, breakup, and Foxslayer)

One day, Shoto was getting bullied on the first day of school until he saw a boy protect him. He was one of the popular boys at school. Shoto looked down and he saw the boy kneeling in front of him.

As Shoto looked at him, he had bruises on his eye and a slap mark. "I am sorry if I got you in trouble." Shoto looked down.  "Don't worry about it. It wasn't your fault." his classmate Vox smiled. Shoto nodded. Vox reached for Shoto's hand and Shoto stood up. Vox giggled as he showed him around the playground and the play area.  The next thing Shoto knew, they were holding hands. That is how it started happening every day from that moment on.

They would hold hands, talk about all their dreams and goals, go to playdates, play in the playground, and walk home after elementary school. One day though, Shoto realized that he kinda had a crush on Vox. Shoto never thought about liking boys before but somehow he fell in love with Vox. They would look at each other whenever Vox hugged him or held his hand. They would do anything for each other.

Shoto and Vox ended up going to middle school together and Shoto was ready to confess to him on the last day of middle school. "Vox?" Shoto blushed. He could feel his heart beating fast. 'What am I doing? Why did I say that out loud? But I want to tell him now.' Shoto felt tears prickling in his eyes and Vox wiped away his tears, he had a smile on his face. "Will you be my boyfriend?" Shoto asked. Vox nodded.

Their relationship was strong and happy. They would have double dates with Vox's friends sometimes and they would have endless moments together. Shoto loved every second of those memories, he wanted them forever. Shoto would imagine walking down the aisle and Vox standing there on the altar. They would talk about their dreams and futures in Shoto's backyard. Their future together would be perfect.

It was the start of Shoto's dream. Shoto and Vox's relationship was great until a new boy came to their school. Vox would have his eyes on him and Shoto felt concerned. "Babe, can we go to our favorite cafe after school?" Shoto hugged Vox. "I am sorry, darling but I promised Ike to go to the movie theaters with friends." Vox patted his hair. "Oh, that's alright!" Shoto smiled. "We will go somewhere else next time!" They kissed goodbye and went to their third class.

When the bell rang, the teacher dismissed everyone. It was P.E. and Shoto was doing a mile with Vox but he always saw him talking to Ike. Shoto didn't mind because they were just friends. "Good job babe!-" Shoto was about to hug Vox when he saw Vox ruffling Ike's hair. "Ah." Shoto smiled idiotically. Every day, Vox would talk to Ike and always talk about him.

As they walked to class, he tried his hardest not to let his smile fade.  When they arrived at their lunch, Shoto sat next to Mysta. Mysta was concerned about Shoto and he decided to talk with him privately at the side of the roof. Shoto cried in front of Mysta and Mysta hugged Shoto. "Let it out." Mysta patted his back. Shoto felt pain and Vox started to forget the dates they planned. Mysta was so furious at Vox and he hated it. As Shoto was taking a stroll he saw Vox and Ike holding hands. Shoto was concerned as Vox started putting his jacket on Ike.

Until he saw Vox pull to kiss Ike. Shoto backed away and it started to rain. Tears started to pour into his eyes. Shoto couldn't stop crying like the rain. Shoto stopped and he broke down in tears. Shoto started to black out and he felt someone carrying him. As he was inside he saw a boy who looked familiar. Shoto stood up and saw Mysta. "Mysta you work here?" Shoto looked at him. "Yeah, I work as a waiter. I saw you on the sidewalk and I didn't want you to get cold." Mysta cleaned the tables while closing his shift. "Is this because of Vox?" Mysta asked. Shoto went quiet. "Hey, bud it's fine. I get it." Mysta pats his shoulder.  "You can come to me whenever you need anything." Mysta smiled and hugged Shoto. As Shoto got home, he went silent.

Shoto began drinking a bottle of beer. Shoto threw away the things Vox gave him and he cried. He broke their frame photo when they were in the amusement park, he took off the necklace Vox gave him, and he threw away everything outside his window. Shoto sobbed and cried as his room was a mess.

The next day, Shoto went home to see Vox with another woman. Shoto kicked the woman out of the house. "What was that for?" Vox pulled Shoto's hair. "And explain why there is another girl?.." Shoto closed the door. Shoto and Vox were arguing and fighting. They weren't happy as things were before. "Explain why you are having a date with Ike." Shoto crossed his arms. "Ike is just my friend," Vox yelled. "You kissed him and you forget our plans!" Shoto yelled.

Vox slapped Shoto hard and Shoto cried. They fought all night and Shoto felt pain inside. Vox sighed and shook his head. "You are such a brat Shoto. You're too dramatic! I don't get why you are so selfish!" Vox yelled. "Selfish and a brat?! I have been always there for your life Vox! I loved you and this is what you think of me?!" Shoto cried. "Shoto I.." Vox said. "Shut up! You don't get how much I care and you should be grateful!" Shoto looked at Vox with tears. "Just leave my room!!" Shoto shut the door loudly. Vox left the apartment and it was just silent. Shoto stayed in bed and cry for two days and he never went to school. The next day, Vox knocked on the door to Shoto's room. "I am so sorry." Vox opened the door to see no sign of Shoto.  Vox regretted his decision. Vox called Mysta and Mysta called back.

"Where is Shoto?." Vox said. "He is living with me now. Why?" Mysta was ruffling Shoto's hair. "Bring him back," Vox demanded.  "Are you sure you aren't being paranoid? I know it is hard right now but Shoto doesn't deserve to live with you." Mysta replied. "Well if you're with Ike... Then Shoto is confirmed as my boyfriend now.." Mysta smiled. Vox was silent. Mysta smirked. "How are you feeling now my 'ex-boyfriend?'" Mysta laughed. "Bring. Shoto. Back.." Vox said. Mysta hang up and Shoto was still on Mysta's lap. "I love you, babe.." Shoto smiled kissing his cheek.

"I love you too, Sho," Mysta said kissing Shoto. The next day, Vox saw how happy Shoto was with Mysta. They were intertwining hands, kissing each other, and doing the same things they used to do back then.  But it hurt like hell to see Shoto smiling so happily. This was what made Vox hate himself more. He hated being an idiot and pathetic. Ike loved Mysta but he wanted him back.
