The purple haired male woke up In a strange bed that smelt of a faint odor of cigarettes. He was confused as to what happened last night. The almost migraine headache he had was giving him the idea he has drank a lot. He walked out into the hall way and down the stairs to a sleeping goth. He was shocked that's whose house he was in and better question what had he done last night. What had they done? He shook Michael awake. "Fuck off leave me alone" Vladimir said "I'd love to I don't want to be here either" Michael had almost forgotten Vlad was here.
Vladimir shoved Michael some more "so I'm going to sit here on the floor until you decide to tell me what happened and by chance do you have some pain killers" Michael rolled over to face the purple haired male "I'll get the pain killers don't worry your head" he tapped vlad's head just to make his head hurt more "ow you dick" Michael came back with a glass of water and two pain killers. Vladimir took them immediately "thank you, now why am I here" Michael sat back on the couch and looked at his watch "shit we will be late if I tell you here come on walk with me? "Vlad raised his brow "walk? You mean you don't drive" Michael replied "aside from last night no I walk everywhere Is that a problem? " Vladimir was in no position to argue so he simply said "no, no problem" he got up off the floor and headed out the door and onto the sidewalk desperately wanting answers about last night. Michael followed with his cane and backpack. "Sorry can't be late for finals" Vladimir was growing increasingly irritated "yeah definitely not he walked faster than Michael "listen do you want to know about last night? Vlad slowed his pace down "obviously because at this point I think we had sex and you took complete advantage of me" Michael huffed "yeah right we were drinking I went upstairs you were really drunk and kissed me then tried to go downstairs you were really wobbly so I helped you, drove you here in Henrietta's car you might've hinted at the idea of sex but I'm not interested in doing that with someone who's drunk let alone I have no idea what to do when it comes to that sort of thing. I tried calling your parents they didn't pick up. So I just carried you upstairs because you had fallen asleep in the car and let you sleep that's all that happened"
Vladimir took a minute to process everything "um I kissed you that's all we didn't have sex?
Micheal said "no we didn't have sex" Vlad responded "that's a relief I'm sure you're great just yeah not under the influence. You drove Henrietta's car drunk? And without a license" Michael laughed yes without a license but I had only one drink it barely affected me." Vladimir was relieved he didn't have relations with the goth but a kiss he didn't remember that's unfortunate hopefully it was better than that awkward mess with raven. Vladimir looked at Michael "was the kiss good? Michael nodded "yeah you tasted like vodka but other than that not bad" Vladimir smiled "probably much better if I wasn't shit faced but thank you for taking care of me that's a bit embarrassing did my friends see me like that" Michael lit up a cigarette "no I made sure they didn't" Vlad made a face you smoke? Those are so bad for you. "Michael sighed we all have to die someway. Vladimir chimed in "yeah but why chose cancer" Michael blew smoke "why not? "Vlad said oh I don't know it's painful" Michael replied "life is pain do you have anything else ?" Vladimir huffed and walked in the direction of school and left Michael behind. Michael couldn't deny that he loved angering Vladimir. Loved to prove him wrong or whether he was doing. His cheeks flushed and his nose crinkled when he was angry. Michael stubbed the cigarette and headed inside to take his last final for life hopefully. Vladimir wasn't so hopeful he knew he'd failed already so he didn't think to try in the slightest.
First period had gone as he expected he didn't know the answer to any of the questions except how to put his name and date on the top of the paper he wrote it fancy as if that was going to help with his grade. He'd have to wait a couple hours to hear his results. Bad was what he was expecting. Vladimir went into his second class a couple minutes before the bell he sat next to Annie she already had the look of she knew what happened but before she could say anything Larry turned around and said "so you hooked up with the goth kid" Ryan chimed in "we heard you did from that kid with red and black hair. I think his name is Pete" Annie snickered "he said you said you two were dating" Vladimir put his head down "of course I said something ridiculous like that, well I didn't hook up with him and we are not dating" "Larry turned around you totally should dude we need more people on our side we lost two of our own" "Ryan said I told you he liked u and turned around" Vladimir fought back "a kiss doesn't mean he likes me" Annie looked at him then why did he bother to make sure you made it home safe? Vladimir whispered in her ear "he took me to his house because he didn't know where I lived" Annie was shocked "omg! Vladimir marry that man" he flicked her "shh shut up class is about to start he said as his cheeks flushed pink.
Michael left class and stuck around the school for a while hoping he'd receive the call he was waiting for and sure enough his phone rang California. He sighed his brother would for sure give him shit for Scottsdale. He's heard the horrors. Everything being happy and the same like out of a story book. He went home and sulked he should be happy but California? No. He just hoped someone else would call he had just about given up when at 4pm he received a letter in the mail from the university of Michigan addressed to him. He never heard of anything good or bad from Michigan other than it had one of the top pharmacy schools. He took out his knife in his pocket shaking while doing so, he eventually got this envelope open and he started reading he got accepted. He screamed a little bit ahh! No fucking Scottsdale. This meant moving away from his brother which scared him but they would keep in contact and his parents would surely be thrilled. Purple made his heart ache. That heart that dosent believe love exists. It dosen', Vladimir will be fine I don't even care it was just a dumb kiss Nothing more. He went upstairs to go brag to his brother.
Unfortunately things for Vladimir were not going as well.The shorter male didn't receive a call or a text just an angry text from his dad In all caps "GET HOME NOW" he knew what that meant he didn't know the consequences though he knew mom wouldn't be home just him and good old pops which was terrifying especially when he was angry. Vladimir got up the walk way and instantly his father was holding printouts of something Vladimir got to the door and could see the anger in his fathers eyes it was jarring. Instantly his father started shouting "How does someone manage to get all F's HOW tell me how? I'm curious" Vladimir responded "i don't know" and looked down "Do you know how expensive this school is? How hard I worked to get you in this school I paid the people to let you in because your high school grades were shit" Vladimir put his hands on his head "yes dad I understand will you please stop yelling" his dad responded "NO you have one job and that is to go to school and be successful that's not much to ask" Vladimir hated being yelled at it struck a nerve in him "no father it isn't. Is it so much to go to college for something I want to do!" He father half smiled like someone would do when they are fed up with everything "what would you like to do then Vladimir" he knew his father would laugh in his face but he said it "I want to own as many flower shops as I can I wanted to do business" his father laughed "yeah right I'll have to talk to the school and get you enrolled again and you'll have to actually pay attention this time" Vladimir raged "NO I'm not you dad I don't want to be a surgeon I want to own flower shops didn't you hear me" his father looked at him like he'd punch him but he calmly said "then your not my son your credit cards are cut off and you'll be moving to Nevada"
Vladimir was shocked "what you can't be serious to live with aunt Mary on the farm! With tears running down his face he spat back "and I'll always be your son! How dare you"
One had nothing but promise the other had a lot of growth to be made. Was that one night was just one night or something more? Time will tell.
