Black Forest

chapter 2

It was usual Monday morning, and a pair of eyes were staring at the lone boy that sat by the window, nobody ever heard his voice, it was like he didn't even exist. it was almost three months into the new semester.
the bell rang and students started leaving, he rose from his seat and approached the boy who was packing his stuff calmly, his heart was threatening to jump out his chest he gulped and a faint, inaudible hi left his lips. The boy stood up and left at a fast pace while Ian stared at his back for a while and he followed along without any second thought

The boy seemed completely unaware of being followed, he crossed the bridge and walked into an alley, and stopped in front of what looked like a small restaurant, he walked upstairs. Ian spared a look at the signboard trying to memorize the surrounding, then followed him upstairs. He stopped at the balcony and took a step back when he saw the boy standing at the door staring directly at him, for the first time he noticed his unusual dark eyes.

He walked inside the small room, and the first thing he noticed was the broken glass window beside the small bed, it was uneasy for him, and Hamon gave him a look to follow inside. He could feel him staring at his soul directly right now but didn't dare to face him. he quickly sat down on the bed. The boy was still staring at him, "I- I lost my w- way " he felt his heart beating uncontrollably, "I will bring you water" Ian heard his Deep, calm voice for the first time as the boy left the room. Ian felt a wave of relief as soon as Amon left

The boy sighed, focusing on his heartbeat, he relaxed a bit but he was feeling too many things at the same time, his brain couldn't process things then he saw Amon walking in with a water bottle, Ian caught the water bottle thrown at him as the other boy headed to rest room. Love makes us crazy Ian thought to himself as he left the room without making any noise he couldn't face the boy at the moment and he knew he fucked up.

What happened earlier this afternoon flashed before Ian as he laid back on his pillow, thoughts rushed into his head, and he felt anxious. "I'm stupid!" He said out loud as he shot up from his pillow and ran towards the balcony.

He arrived early for the class and waited for his cupcake to arrive,  he smiled to himself at the nickname,
"hi, would you like to join me after school ?", No " hi would you like to grab some coffee later? " 
He prepared himself in his head as he saw the lone boy approaching him, the boy stared at him as he took his seat next to the window,
"h- hi" - Ian smiled awkwardly
"Hi,"  he said as he diverted his gaze to his books.

And that's how they end up sitting opposite each other, in a luxury cafe. Both of them were too shy to say anything,  Ian noticed amon trying his best to avoid eye contact.

Did I make you uncomfortable?   Ian rested his palm on the other's hand. "I want to apologize for yesterday"

"N-no" he replied as he kept his eyes focused on his lap.

*Do you want anything? It's on me"

"Mr. Ian smith, I would like to leave now, thank you for your company" Amon rose from his seat and headed to the counter. Ian watched him leave as rested his head on the back of the chair.

"I guess he hates me now"

"Blueberry cafe"

"Huh?!" Ian exclaimed
" You will find me there in the Evening"
Amon left behind a puzzled Ian Smith

"Ian!" A voice pulled Ian back to the present 
"Louis? "
"So what's up with your prince Charming?"
"He left early today, and didn't even care to wait for me "
"He must be busy "
"What could be more important than me? "
Louis chuckled " you didn't ask him out yet  idiot"
"Should I ? "
