Little Silly Tophabe thing (discontinued)

Realization

(*Abes POV*)

'Dear dairy,
It's been a few days since the maze thing and I'm not sure what to do now. I mean school has been normal other than Joan being alone and not being popular anymore. I would talk to her but I can't really get over what she did to win just for a little reason. I've been hanging out with JFK and Topher though, I think me and Topher have gotten closer since I've stopped showing interest with Joan. I'm not sure why we are. He still "white leveraged" me but I've kind of gotten over it since it's not really happening anymore since JFK destroyed Tophers phone. But back on the topic of Topher. He's just been a bit more social with me, but only me. I mean I'm not saying it's bad. People don't really like Topher all that much because he's creepy. I don't really think that's he's creepy. I mean, he's not like someone a girl would drool over but he's not ugly. I'm not sure why I think that but nobody else does. But anyway I have to be getting to class.'

I then put my diary back into my locker and grabbed my books then walked to class.

(Time skip to lunch)

"Hey Toph!"
"Oh hey Lincoln." Topher replied with as I sat down with him at the table we always had to ourselves luckily. Topher didn't have lunch with seemed pretty normal for it being Topher, and he was on his phone scrolling through FlipFlop while also arguing with people in the comments but I guess the person he was trying to argue with was a chicken because they deleted their comment and after that he put his phone in his pocket sighing.

"So what have you been up to Toph?"
"Arguing on FlipFlop and school. Duh."
"Well I should've guessed"
"..."
"..done anything cool recently?"
"Not off the top of my head"
"Okk then... Have you seen anyone here that you'd like? Probably not though, no offense but not many people here was as attractive as Joan and Cleo but I don't like them anymore"
"...I haven't really seen much"
"So you've seen at least one person?"
"I think? Not sure."
"Ok then. Who is it?"
"..."
"You don't have to tell me if you're not comfortable!"
"Thanks?"
"No problem!"
After this conversation with Topher, I had felt a little scared. I mean I couldn't stop thinking 'What if it's me! Well it probably won't be if it isn't it's fine just why does it feel like I want him to like me? Why do I feel like this to his reaction?' Then I snapped out of it as Topher waved his hand in front of my face "Abe?" He asked as he waved his hand

(*Tophers POV*)

I waved my hand in front of Abe's face as I quite obviously saw him lost in thought. "Abe?" I asked putting my hand down as I saw him look at me. "Jeez you really wondered didn't you?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean you were zoned out."
"Oh, ok then."
"Ok."
Then it was an awkward silence after the last ok. I started to ponder about what I should tell Abe if he's asks me that question again. 'Does he wanna hear the truth? Should I-?' My thoughts were then interrupted by one of Lucy Furs babies nipping at me. "Ow!"
"What?"
"Sorry, one of Lucy Furs babies" I replied with but immediately regretted 'shit, what if he asks what I'm thinking about-?!'
"Toph? You ok? You're sweating..."
"I'm fine." I quickly got up and headed to the bathroom and locked myself in a stall.

(*Abes POV*)

When Topher ran away I sighed and walked to my locker to grab my diary

'Dear Diary,
I think Topher is now gonna hold a grudge against me or something, he had gotten pretty nervous on the topic of when I asked if he liked someone. I kinda hope it's me but, even if it isn't it would be fine. I just really hope it's me for some reason! I don't know what's happening, I'm confused, Tophers mad and anxious quite obviously because of the bite he said he got from Lucy Furs baby. I just hope he isn't mad and wants to like not be friends or something. Once again with my feelings, what is it?! I just don't know anymore. I feel like I should talk to someone I trust about it like JFK. Actually I'm going to ask JFK about it! He can tell me!'

I closed my diary and put it back in my locker and headed back to lunch and flagged JFK down to let me in the VIP section so I can ask to talk. "JFK!" I yelled out and I saw JFK look away from Frida, Cleo, and Harriet as he looked around to see who called his name and he spotted Abe. "Oh er uh! Come on in!" JFK called out as I was let in. "Hey uhh JFK..!"
"Hey Abe. Was there anything you er uh needed?"
"Uhh I just need some help with something that's kinda weird and I thought maybe you can help because you know about this stuff and I trust you, a lot."
"Oh er ok then. Is it private or uh?"
"I don't mind if the others hear.."
"Oooo~ now I'm curious!" Harriet said leaning in. "Well I'm having some problems with my friend."
"Er uh which one?"
"I'd rather not say, but anyway I asked them not long ago who they liked and they didn't tell me who and for some reason I feel like I want it to be me really bad but I've never felt this way for them and maybe you can't help me figure out what it is..?"
"Well I think you're just er uh crushin' on them."
"Wait what-?"
"Yeah to be honest it's kinda how I felt when I figured out I liked Cleo" Frida chimed in.
"Oh, ok then. We'll see you all...!" I said as I walked away and out the VIP section. Oh god what was I going to do about this..

(*Tophers POV*)

As I just started stressing and feeling out in the bathroom starting to ignore the bites and nips I was given. 'What if he finds out and he then hates me and I have no friends again and I start all over as the weird creepy kid and he could tell everyone my clone father and-!'

"Toph...?" Shit shit shit shit.
"...Topher. I know you're I here..."
"Go away."
"Topher what are you doing...?"
"Nothing!"
"Well you have to be doing atleast something."
"Well I'm not."
"Well that wouldn't make any sense."
"In your book."
"...look Topher"
"What."
"Look, I just wanna ask one thing. What were you thinking that caused you to get nipped by one of Lucy Furs babies?"
"Nothing"
"Topher let me in."
"No..."
"Yes"
"No."
"Cmon Toph."
"I don't care"
Abe then sighed and I saw his hands grip the top of the stall as he peeked over.
"Topher what are you actually doing because I see you're just sitting there and why are you sweating so hard? You look way more nervous than when you left the lunch room. Are you actually ok..?"
"I..."
"Topher. Please answer me."
I then got up and Abe backed away from the stall door and I unlocked the stall and sat back down where I was then Abe opened the stall door and stood near me kind of awkwardly.
"So Topher can you actually tell me the truth about why you got so anxious..."
"I was only thinking about the question you asked me that's all."
"Why did it make you anxious?"
"I don't know..." and Abe sighed

(*Abes POV*)

As I sighed I put my hand on Tophers shoulder and he flinched at the contact.
"Look I just want to honestly know who you like... it's not like I'd be mad if you liked a popular person. So just tell me please"
"Fine..."
"Fine what?"
"I'll tell you it's uhm."
"Go ahead."
"I- it's you? I don't know..!"
I was in honest shock at his response and I just said what I wanted to say back "I think I like you too? I don't know either." And Topher chuckled at this and we just were quiet for the rest of the time until the bell rung. The Topher said "that was a long lunch."
"Yeah." I then ruffled his head causing his beanie to cover his eyes. "Hey!" "Oops."

The fucking end because I'm tired and my fingers hurt like hell.
