"noah!" mrs. martinez, the ninth grade creative writing teacher, yelled from her oak desk at the front of the classroom.

noahs pale cheeks flushed a deep scarlet as he looked up and his scared orbs met his teachers angered ones.

"can we talk in the hall, please?" the young girls harsh tone was now replaced with one as sweet as honey. but just as sickly.

the small boy followed her out of the classroom, not raising his beautiful eyes from the ground once.

"noah...i think it would be best if you talked to someone."

the brown haired boy immediately thought of his old friend whom had stood up for him just this morning.

mrs. martinez- or rather, melanie, the two had been on a first name basis when noah was still talking- sighed sadly, "i know you wont talk to me, but maybe finn? i know you two used to be close."

it was if the split haired teacher- it was teal and black at the moment- had read the small boys thoughts.

noah nodded enthusiastically, or as enthusiastic as he could, and the corners of his thin lips turned up in a subtle smile.

"i was hoping you would be happy about that," as the words left his teachers pink lipstick covered lips, who should walk around the corner other than finn himself.

"hey, noah," finn looked genuinely happy to see him, it made the young boy feel an emotion he hadnt truly felt in a while- happiness.

"look...i know you dont really like to talk,"

'thats an understatement,' noah thought to himself

"but i will do everything in my power to read your mind. i want my old noah back. i want you to be able to unwind and communicate some other way with me. do you think you can try at least?"

the shorter boy bit his lip and looked at his feet, rocking back and forth on his feet.

"i-its okay..." the frown was visible in the older boys voice, "im sorry..."

noah hesitantly hugged the boy in front of him, ignoring the immense pain and enjoying the feeling of being touched with love and care.

"o-okay..." the small boy whispered just barely loud enough for the older boy to hear.

when they both pulled away, the black haired boy was grinning like and idiot as was melanie.

"see you around, noah."

noah waved and was led back inside by melanie as finn went back to his class.

maybe today wouldnt be so bad after all.
