Crumbling

Sam and Norman could feel their relationship slowly falling apart and they were both clearly aware of this I mean this was as obvious as the opening of The Black Parade. Hell, anyone could see this. Even the teachers were wondering why these kids were still together. However Norman needed this relationship, the more it slipped away the more he felt his firm belief in his heterosexuality slip away. Man, he was so far in denial I bet he could feel the cold breeze from Narnia.

Lately he caught himself staring at Jack just a little too much and by too much he meant a lot. This was becoming a huge issue. To make matters worse the day came that everyone was expecting and no one was surprised when it happened. Sam and Norman broke up. The conversation was actually surprisingly short.

"Um Norman, I need to talk," she said pulling the boy to the side. "I think this isn't really working, just we should break up-"

Norman smirked and shook his head.

"Uh- just it's-"

"No there is no need to explain, I know," he said interrupting her and looking quite amused.

Wait how could he possibly know?! I haven't told a soul- Oh God is it that obvious???. Sam's thoughts raced and she felt slightly panicked. She really wanted to keep this on the down low. Damn, not even her friend Kika who she told everything to.

"Wait- really? How?"

"Yeah- I mean it's kind of obvious, Sam."

Norman nodded at her as he came to a perfect conclusion in his head. Of course it all made sense, this girl was clearly a lesbian. She is the problem and why we aren't working out. Not me, because I'm clearly 100% straight and nothing can change that- not even Jack.

"Well...I...Okay then," she said awkwardly giving him a small smile and walking away. She looked over at her small group of friends waiting for her at the other side of the cafeteria and gave them a slight shrug and a small smile to reassure her blue haired, previously purple haired friend, Kika that it happened and nothing bad went down.

God if he knew, then everyone was sure to soon know. It looked like she was gonna have to tell Kika soon about Ted this was gonna be awkward. He was a bad guy, but that didn't necessarily make him a "bad guy", she thought as she retold the story to her and decided to wait to some other time to bring up this awkward confession of deep passionate burning love.

So that was that and they both went about their days relatively normal as it could get. Only slightly awkward glances here and there. However, right around when he got to fifth hour he fell into his own thoughts and couldn't stop thinking about Jack which was way too gay for his liking, because he's definitely /not/ if anything gay.

The rest of that hour passed by for him in a blur. Next thing he knew he was sitting in math class staring very very creepily at Jack.

"What are you looking at? Can I help you?" Jack said annoyed.

"Well unfortunately I'm looking at your face and wondering if it's really possibly to be born that ugly," he replied laughing slightly at his own joke.

"Yeah, but you love me," the dark haired boy said with a small chuckle.

"Pft, whatever." The boy said with a snort, but little did Jack know he did he really did and there was no escaping that.

But, he still wasn't gay, right???
