Waiting for us (a Bang Chan x male reader story)

Ch 2

*four years later*

Fumbling with my tie in my bedroom mirror I grumble when I can't get it done properly. "Sweetheart Chan's here to drive you to school!" I sigh at my moms words looking over my appearance of auburn hair and blue eyes quickly adjusting my chest binder then grab my backpack and rush downstairs heading over to Chan with a little smile. "Hey Chan! Ready for our last year of school?" He smiles and ruffles my hair making me pout and slap his hand away. "You bet." He then seems to observe me before holding his hand out. "Tie please." I hand it over and he steps into my personal bubble then starts doing up my tie for me I holding back a blush. Chan and I have been best friends for four years now and are extremely close. The only thing is I have stupidly caught feelings for him and I'm pretty sure he just sees me as a little brother figure. Snapping out of my thoughts when Chan moves away from me I give him a little smile. "Thanks." He immediately gives me a grin and says teasingly. "What would you do without me?" I roll my eyes. "Oh please I'd get by." He chuckles then grabs my hand and starts leading me to the door after giving my parents a quick "bye Mr and Mrs Sam!" I stumble after Chan my heartbeat speeding up as he leads me to his car. I yank my hand away from him and move to the passenger side getting in and buckle up as he gets in the drivers seat. He then starts driving us to school as I immediately start fidgeting a little. Chan peeks over at me with a slight frown his tone becoming worried. "You alright?" I sigh and give a little nod. "Yeah just dreading seeing Beomseok." He immediately scowls not looking happy. Choi Beomseok is my ex boyfriend who as soon as he found out that I was transgender he immediately broke up with me and blabbed it to his friends. I immediately give Chan a slight look. "Just leave it Chan it's fine." He gives me a look back after he parks the car. "No Fenton it's not fine. You shouldn't have been treated like that and he shouldn't have blabbed to his friends something that's obviously sensitive, personal and private." I shake my head and get out of the car grabbing my backpack then start heading for the front door. I soon feel Chan at my side he putting a reassuring hand on my shoulder I immediately changing the subject. "Where's your locker at?" He tells me which hallway it's located in and I immediately pout because mines really far away. "I guess I'll see you in first period then." He gives me a reassuring smile and we reluctantly part ways I heading to my locker and open it putting some of my things in. Just as I finish putting away some notebooks I jump when my lockers suddenly forced closed I looking up only to grimace when I see none other than Beomseok. "Well if it isn't the little freak. Where's your protector?" I immediately give him a look. "I don't need Chan by my side constantly Beomseok." He scoffs. "Doesn't seem like it. And it still seems you're being delusional. You know you really should accept that you're not a real guy." I immediately tense before glaring at him. "I am too! Just because I'm a little different doesn't make me any less of a guy." He raises an eyebrow at me and I shake my head going to bypass him when he grabs my arm a little roughly pulling me back. "Hey! I'm not finished talking to you." I go to say something when I suddenly hear Chan's voice. "What's going on here?" I see Beomseok tense but he turns and glares. "This doesn't concern you Bang." I see Chan immediately glare back he looking really intimidating. "Considering you're hurting him then yeah it does. Now let him go." Beomseok pauses before he scoffs and lets me go storming off. Chan then turns to me looking concerned. "You alright?" I give a reassuring nod. "Yeah I'm fine. Let's head to class." He goes to say something but I just start walking off to our first class of the day. Once I enter I take a seat towards the back and by the window staring outside Chan taking a seat beside me silently. Once class starts I immediately focus on the teacher until class is over I immediately getting up and walk out of the classroom Chan quickly following behind me. He walks me to my next class that we don't have together I heading inside to art where I take a seat at my station my seat mate a girl named Malia looking at me with a bright smile. "Hey Fenton! My friend Lydia is having a big party tonight to kick off the school year. You and Chan should definitely come!" I blink a little in surprise then raise an eyebrow knowing it's a Friday but I wasn't expecting to be invited to a party. "I'll think about it." She immediately pouts. "Oh come on! Everyone's coming from our year. And you should at least go to one party in high school." I hesitate before seeing her pleading look and sigh. "Fine I'll come." She cheers and I give a little smile before concentrating on my drawing it of a wolf howling at the moon. Once art is over I head out of the classroom not surprised to see Chan there but Malia immediately gets my attention saying cheerfully. "See you tonight Fenton!" I wave at her and Chan gives me a confused expression. "What's tonight?" I immediately look a little sheepish. "I promised Malia I'd go to her friends party to celebrate our last year of school." He immediately frowns a little. "Are you sure that's a good idea?" I give him a pout. "Oh come on Chan we need to experience at least one party during high school." He sighs but reluctantly agrees. "Alright fine. But you're not leaving my side the whole night." I grin happily. "Of course. We stick together." He smiles a little then we head to the rest of our classes for the day.
