tyler mumbled angrily as he tried to get his combination lock to give in. he's never been that keen on having a locker anyway. but, since he's had so much stuff this year, he figured it was worth it.
"are you fucking kidding me!" tyler exasperated, he heard a chuckle come from behind him. making him jump, slightly.
he turned to see josh with his stupid little grin on his face.
"having trouble?" he asked, quirking up an eyebrow.
"yes, actually, I can't get my locker open." tyler says with a pout.
"here, let me try." tyler steps aside, mumbling to josh his combination. after a few seconds he hears the familiar click noise and josh steps back.
"you're welcome." he says, showing his grin that causes tyler's legs to feel weak.
"thanks josh, I guess I'll see you later then?" tyler speaks as he grabs the things he needs.
"yeah, I'll save you a seat in lunch okay? just look for me and a guy with a big forehead bye ty!" josh says as he walks backwards, but then turns frontwards after he's done speaking.
-----------
lunch time comes around, searching the cafeteria for a sight of a blue
fro-hawk. tyler's eyes finally catch a glimpse of josh as he frantically waves his arm. tyler makes his way over, careful not to bump into anyone.
once he sits down, he notices a boy with an abnormal sized forhead. like, you could land a plane on that thing. tyler had to bite his lip to keep himself laughing.
"tyler, this is brendon. but I call him beebo, beebo, tyler." josh introduces them. tyler waves at brendon, and brendon jumps up out of his seat.
"none of that waving, we hug, or at least I do." brendon says as he picks tyler up and almost squeezes the life out of him.
"o-okay I can't breathe beebo." tyler coughs, brendon sets him down and skips back over to his seat.
"sorry about him, he's really upfront." josh laughs, tyler nods in agreement.
tyler digs into his lunch, nothing special, really. just a pb&j, an apple, a red bull, & some cheetos. as tyler downs his red bull, (basically in one gulp.) he feels something slimy fall on his head.
"dude, what the fuck?!" josh says as he stands up.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't aware you faggots were friends with this tranny. I just had to dump my tray, but now I realize that samantha wasn't the trash. oops." chad laughs off with his crew, dropping his tray in front of tyler.
tyler feels as though he can't breathe,
no no no no, this can't be happening.
he can't believe brad just called him her name. tyler feels like he's gonna be sick. he feels his eyes start to water and he books it out the cafeteria.
he hears josh call after him, but he just ignores it. after josh finds out about tyler, will he still be friends with him? Tyler didn't want to lose josh because of this, he really didn't.
tyler ran outside and ran to the football field. going underneath the bleachers and sitting down. there, he broke down. he hated this, why couldn't he just be born the way he believe he was supposed to be? why did people have to beat him down every time he wanted to be his true self?
tyler just didn't understand, & he hated it. he hated how close minded people were. he hated how people could care less about his feelings. he hated it.
tyler's tears soon slowed, to some hiccups every now and then by the amount of tears he shed. he picked at the grass beside him. not really wanting to go back to school, he still had the slimy food on him too.
"ty, there you are. I've been looking all over for you." josh said as he sat down next to him.
"do you want to talk about it?" he asked, tyler shrugged.
"I just didn't think I'd have to tell you so soon, I thought I'd at least have more time to get to know you." tyler explained, looking down.
"I'd rather not tell you here. do you mind skipping with me and going home?" tyler asked josh, looking him straight in eyes.
"no, not at all. I brought you your bag too." he handed tyler his bag and helped the boy up.
tyler was nervous, what if josh viewed him differently after he knew everything?
will josh turn his back on him?
