Shane's povThe bus screeched to a stop and the doors opened. I got on and joey very slowly followed me and he looked around at all the people crowded onto the large bus. There were two open seats right near all my friends. My group of friends consisted of Meghan, Luke, Sawyer, Lisa, Cat and Daniel. We had all been friends for the past two years so we were pretty close.
Over the summer i introduced them all to joey and i told them how i found him. They all accepted and loved him so he was comfortable around him.
Sawyer: Hey shane what's up.
We high fived and joey sat on the outside part of the seat near the window.
Shane: Oh nothing much how was your summer.
All of us continued to talk with eachother and i smiled and laughed.
Joey's pov
After we got on the big yellow thing i didn't like it at all. Everybody was talking at once and shane was completley ignoring me. I pulled out the sweatshirt i had in my backpack and i pulled it on. I pulled up my hood and i stared at all the passing houses.
After two minutes the thing stopped and even more people got on. I whimpered and hid my face under my jacket. I felt a large hand on my shoulder and i flinched.
Shane: Hey calm down joey it's alright.
I frowned and wiped my eyes with my sleeve.
Shane: What's wrong?
Joey: It's n-nothing.
Shane: Joey don't lie to me.
Joey: T-too many people....it's l-loud shaney.
Shane: Aww joey.
He gave me a tight hug and kissed my forehead lightly. I melted into his touch and he chuckled.
Shane: It's ok you'll get used to it.
Joey: P-promise?
Shane: I promise.
Shane's pov
I hate it when joey's scared but i think school will be good for him. He needs to learn to socialize and and interact with other people. Even if it's difficult he needs to know.
The bus screeched to a stop and the doors opened letting us get off. Joey tried to hold my hand but i pulled away. I don't want joey to come out on the first day here. No one really bugs me about my sexuality because i'm kinda big and built. So their face will get pounded into if they even try.
But joey is fragile and kinda weak (so he thinks) and i need to protect him. We both walked to the main office and got out schedules. I looked over both of them and we only had four classes together. That means joey is gonna have classes without me....oh shit.
I walked back to the office lady and joey trailed behind me.
Shane: Hi um can we get his schedule changed to match mine?
Lady: Sorry every classroom is full and we can't make any switches.
I ran a hand through my hair and i looked back to a confused joey. I held his face and he looked up at me.
Shane: Now joey for two classes shane isn't gonna be there.
Joey: S-so shane.....leave me?
Shane: Yes but only for a little bit i'll be waiting for you after every class i promise.
Joey: But i...miss you.
His lip quivered and he looked down at his shoes.
Shane: NO joey don't cry it's ok don't worry.
I gave him a quick hug and the bell rang. We walked to our first class and the day dragged on with tons of lectures about rules and boring shit that i don't care about.
It was now third period and joey had done well so far. But this period was one of them where i wasn't with joey. Thank god meghan was there to at least keep him slightly calm.
Shane: Now joey you're gonna stay with meghan ok?
Joey: B-but i w-wanna....stay with s-shaney.
My heart melted at his little nickname and he hugged me tightly.
Joey: P-please don't....leave joey.
Shane: Joey it's ok please don't cry.
I wiped his eyes and he smiled when i kissed his lips. Meghan walked up and the bell was about to ring.
Shane: I love you joey bye.
Joey: B-bye shane.
I ran away and just barely made it.
Meghan's pov
Joey is the most adorable person i've ever met. If i could date him i totally would he's sweet and he can be funny at some times. Even though he lived in the forest he sometimes acts like a monkey which i find strange.
We walked into class and our teacher Mr. Benton was looking around the class. The bell rang and we all sat down.
Teacher: Hello class I am Mr.Benton your chemistry teacher. Now this class isn't too hard if you just pay attention. Now i see we have a couple new students so how about you stand up and tell us your name.
He pointed to joey and joey started shaking.
Teacher: Well come on.
Meghan: I'm sorry he is just extremley shy and he dosen't talk much.
Teacher: Well ok then moving on.
I exhaled a sigh of relief and we got through the rules and other stuff i don't care about. We didn't really have class all we did was go over the rules and chemichals we were going to use. Joey occupied himself with my hand mirror and i smiled.
The last bell rang and we all walked out of class. Shane was standing there smiling and joey ran into his arms.
Shane's pov
Shane: How was he?
Meghan: He did amazing....he didn't talk all of class but he didn't disrupt anyone.
Shane: Really?
Meghan: Yea.
I looked down at him and he smiled while burying his face into my chest.
Shane: I'm so proud of you baby.
Joey: Shane...proud o-of Joey?
Shane: Yes i'm very proud, good job.
I kissed his cheek lightly and the day dragged on and on dear god school can be boring.
