You Came Back (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 9

Kyle's POV

I made my way to my last class of the day. It was my cooking class and I was a little nervous to see who the new teacher was.
Zach had walked me here and reassured me everything would be fine. He's amazing.

I walked in and was surprised, a man stood there, with cropped white hair. He looked fairly young, and he also happened to be albino. He turned and looked fairly surprised to see me as well. You don't really see albino people a lot.
"Hello. I'm Mr. Timmers, I'll be your teacher for the next few weeks." He smiles. I quickly pull out my notebook.
Just to let you know, I'm mute so please don't call on me for questions. I write.
"Ah I see, I'll make a note of that, what's your name?" He asks.
Kyle Richards. I've heard Timmers somewhere before. He smiles and nods. I sit down and think of where I've heard Timmers before.
I decide to text Keith and ask.

To: Keith

Hey, does the last name Timmers ring a bell?

I text Lisa as well. She responds first.

From: Lisa

Yea of course silly, that's your last name- oh wait I forgot it was changed. That was your last name when you were still an orphan in Michigan.

My eyes widen. Then I remember Taylor telling me something about my parents switching the name to the sperm donor's last name when they gave me up.
I hardly focus on class, and almost burn the salmon I'm cooking. At the end of class I rush to the teacher with my notebook open.

I'd like to get a DNA test done between us. I write. He laughs.
"Kyle, I know being albino is uncommon, but that doesn't mean we're related." He says.
No you don't understand. My parents gave me up when I was a child. I found them last year, but they used the donors last name for my last name. It was Timmers. It would also explain why I'm albino.

I watch his facial expression change the longer he stares.
"Huh, alright kid. I'll schedule an appointment for tomorrow. What time works with you?"
I only have one class at 10 till 11. Then this one. Anytime in between.
"We can go for lunch after your first class? Make it for noon?" He offers. I nod.
"Alright. Now head on home Kyle. It's getting late."I nod and wave before walking out.
I make my way back to my dorm and when I open the door I see Eden and Keith roughly making out. They both break apart when the door opens and I see Eden topless. I quickly close the door and take a few steps back. There are some things I don't need to see.
The door opens a few minutes later and they both step out. Eden grabs me by the collar of my shirt and shoves me against the wall.
"You saw nothing. Got it?" I nod quickly.
"Eden!" Keith says. She draws back.
"Sorry Kyle." She mumbles. Keith puts his arm around her.
"Feisty." Keith purrs. I roll my eyes.
Should I come back later? I sign. He shakes his head.
"Nah. Moments gone. Wanna watch a movie?" Eden and I nod. They cuddle on his bed and I text Zach, asking if he wants to come over. I feel like such a third wheel.
Halfway through, Keith and I make eye contact. Now's my chance.
You're never gonna guess what happened today. I sign, almost excited. Is that man really my real dad?
"What happened?" Keith asks. Eden, who was oblivious before turns to stare in confusion. She can't read sign language.
We have this new teacher. His name is Mr. Timmers. I think he is my biological father. He's even albino. We're getting tested tomorrow. I excitedly explain.
"What?" Eden asks. I roll my eyes and Keith explains it to her.
"Oh Kyle that's great!" She says. All traces of the angry she demon are gone, and replaced with excitement. I nod and smile.
I'm really excited.

Next day

My second class just ended and I was nervous. Good Christ was I nervous. I met up with Mr. Timmers.
"Alright, what do you feel like for lunch?" I pull out my notebook.
I'm cool with anything really.
"So subway works?" I nod.
