A/N:
I might not be able to write as much since I'm applying to colleges and such. I want to try to write this weekend, but I'm not sure 😭😭! But, I didn't forget about this story!
I'm so thankful for all the interaction and reads this has gotten! And I can wait to listen to y'all's head-canons and thoughts!
I hope you all have a nice day/night!

Gene lets out a huff as tosses the disgusting juice to the side. He watches Zenix quickly scramble to grab it, Sasha laughs in the background.
"G-gene?! That was a lot of money okay!" The boy looks up at him with a pleading look.
The boy waves his hand dismissively. It's not like he spilled the thing, he'd made sure not to do that. But he wanted it as far away as possible.
"Yeah, yeah I know. Don't worry, I wouldn't do that to my poor defenseless sophomores." He ruffles his hair causing Zenix to squirm and flush at his touch. Gene just laughs.
"Hey stop being gay," Sasha calls jokingly from the table she's sitting on. Her white hair is pulled into a low ponytail due to it being "As hot as Satan's ass" as she said earlier.
"Can you even call him that when he was totally flirting with that teacher's aid?" Zenix asks, attempting to fix his already messy hair.
"Yeah, what was with that boss?" The purple-eyed girl squints at him.
"You don't like Goodie-two-shoes Original, so why her?"
"She's interesting."
Sasha rolls her eyes, while Zenix scoffs.
"No offense boss, but she's a worse version of Teonly."
"It's Teony Dumbass." Sasha snorts, "But yeah, she's not that interesting."
"So you admit she is interesting."
"Oh her first day of school she was immediately appointed teacher's aid," Sasha crosses her arms, pulling along the dark purple jacket she has wrapped loosely around her arms. "That's suspicious as hell."
"Right! And she's been getting REAL close to ol' Lar Lar."
"Lar Lar....?"
"Can't you just let me have one thing, Sasha!"
Gene's eyes narrow at the last sentence. He's not stupid, he remembers seeing the two of them further into the park, but he's not so worried about that.
"Laurence can talk to whoever he wants." The noriett shrugs his shoulders, "Besides! He already has googly eyes at Bunny's dear friend."
"Really?" Zenix furrows his brows. "I thought he's into that Aphmau chick."
"Nope!"
Before the conversation can continue, two more of his goons come over informing him of their new member officially arriving. Gene's tense shoulders relax. He can finally escape their questioning-
"We'll talk about this later Gene." Sasha stares, glaring daggers at him. If it weren't for him being her boss he might have started to sweat.
He waves his hand dismissively to her with a smirk. "Sure, sure."
They are not going to talk about this later.
He's not ready to talk about it yet.

Sasha attempted to bring it up again later at lunch a few weeks later. He of course avoided the questions like the plague.
It's not like he knows why she caught his attention. Maybe it was because of how defenseless she looked, but in actuality, she was not. Or maybe it's her appearance? Possibly her relation to power in the school..or-

"You know you don't have to keep dealing with them, Mari," Teony says.
The two of them are speaking in the hallway after the Shadow Nights got caught again by the pink-haired student. Gene left to scope out the area and happened to catch the two of them mid-conversation.
"I know I don't have to.." Mari shrugs, looking indifferent to the situation. "I just don't get it."
"Get what?"
"Why do they do the things they do? Get in trouble, spray paint the school, bully people, it's not...." She looks down.
"People aren't naturally mean. I'm sure they have some reason..."
Teony smiles softly and places her hand on the shorter girl's shoulder.
"You're too nice for your own good."
"Whatever, I'm just saying that dealing with them isn't a bother for me."
"Even Gene?"
Mari snorts, almost in a playful way. "Yes even Gene. I'm sure he has some good qualities. I believe in him."
They didn't notice when Gene walked away. He just needed to get back to the gang and tell them to move to another spot.
The reason for his heartbeat quickening was from the adrenaline. His face is flushed from the heat of his jacket. And the smile on his face is from the thought of his gang pissing off Teony...
Yeah.
Not because someone said they believed in him. Not because she said it.
Fuck.
