It was the end of the day. I had not seen Lincoln for a few days, but I can only assume he didn't skip since I have been hearing rumors that a fight between Brick, a few other guys and Lincoln broke out on the bus yesterday. I also heard from Brick that he and some other guys "Fucked up the freak" but that could have been Brick being a little sour puss about Lincoln knocking the shit out of last time. I knew for sure that for seven days he'd have detention after school for an hour only because Brick said they were having the same punishment. (plus I asked) Though Brick did say that he was "the victim in this all" and he "shouldn't even be getting punished" Which I rolled my eyes to. I on the other hand never received a punishment. Some say its hard to be "mean" to me because I'm so charming. I think it's just because I got a pretty face.

Skipping down the the schools stairs as I exited the building that led to the parking lot I saw slumped body sitting on the stairs. With a closer look I found out it was Lincoln. I approached with caution the memories of our first face to face interaction still fresh.

"Ah Lincoln?" He turned around and I got a good look at his bruised face. "Shit. So Brick wasn't kidding about fucking you up..." Lincoln let out a chuckle.

"Thanks lemon drop way to remind me."I let out a uneasy laugh and sent him a guilty smile.

"Sorry. And sorry about Brick he's got a bit of a masculinity problem. He's got to show everyone he's a 'big strong man'" He shook his head at my words letting out a bark of a laugh. I took that as my invitation to sit. Walking over to the step he was sitting on, I sat down next to him. "So what happened. Give me the gruesome details" Lincoln laughed at that and It felt good to made him laugh again.

"Nah its fine. Usually your there for the fight so it wasn't that different but Brick played dirty." I looked down at Lincoln hands seeing them clenched into fists. "Bring in other guys. Hell I didn't even know 'em! Now I can't even ride the bus. Nic and the principal thought it'd be a good punishment. Now I have to walk home and 'think about my poor behavior'as I do." I just nodded my head wondering who Nic was. I was pulled out of thoughts when I heard a clicking noise. Looking over as Lincoln I noticed the lighter and cigarette in his hands.

"You smoke?" I questioned.

"Ahh yeh. I don't do it often. Nic doesn't like the smell-" Again with the Nic guy?"-knocking him on his ass." Oops jeez I space out for a second and miss something.

"Sorry I spaced out. What did you say?" I tilled my head looking over at Lincoln. Lincoln smiled at me.

"I said Nic doesn't like the smell but It keeps my hand busy and it's better then finding Brick and knocking him on his ass." He said as he took puffs of his cigarette. I let out a little laugh.

"I guess that's that true." We sat there for a few minutes as Lincoln smoked. My throat started to tickle as I kept breath in the smoke. I let out a choked cough when I couldn't it anymore. Lincoln looked over at me. Putting out his cigarette and patting my back laughing a bit at me distress.

"Sorry about that Oxen." I waved my hand sending him a watering eyed smile. "You not use to smoking?" I shook my head no afraid I start cough again. "Know anyone who smokes?" he questioned. I gave my throat a good clearing getting rid of that itch.

"Um maybe? I know our school has a smoking problem..." This time Lincoln tilted his head questioningly.

"Hmmm ever kissed a smoker?" He asked scooting closer. I took a deep breath through my noise as I leaned back as he got closer placing a hand on my knee. I let out a breathing no as he got closer his hand creepy up my thigh. I jumped away when I realized what was happening. No. I already got comments on how I have feminine taste. I don't need people going "Oh so he's gay. That explains it." My parents already asked about it telling me that if I was gay. They didn't care. I was still their little boy. Which yes that was nice but I'm not gay. I don't want people assuming thing about me. Especially if they're gonna judge me because their assumptions.

"Wait!" I squeaked jumping to feet. Lincoln pulled back looking up at me. He looked hurt. I didn't know what to say so I blurted the next that popped in my head. " Do you want a ride!?" Lincoln looked a little taken back by my volume. Lincoln looked at me with a soft smile his face as he stood up nodding his head. "O-ok. This way then." I could hear a Lincoln chuckle as I marched off to my car but I chose to ignore it. When we got to my car I quickly put the key in putting the car in ignition. I was about to tell to Lincoln to put on his seat belt when I heard my radio turn on.

~ play song if you like~

I knew what song was playing. Probably everyone would recognize the song. I wanted to slam my head on to my steering wheel repeatedly. I was in physical pain when I saw the grin on his face. I was about to switch it off when Lincoln grabbed my hand. "I-I can explain!" I croaked out. Lincoln shook his head.

"Oxen really Frozen?" I chewed on lip looking down at my lap. Why? Why of all the song on my CD this be the one to play. Hell I rather had "Hell Fire" from The Hunchback of Notre Dome play and he's think I was into some weird Jesus music. I looked up at a smiling Lincoln when I felt his hand in my hair ruffling it "I can't blame you really the song really catching. I shrugged sheepishly.

"Y-eah I have a bunch of Disney songs on this CD but I don't really like Frozen." I cursed myself for stuttering in front of Lincoln so many times today. "I don't get why so many freaked out about it. Acting like it was a totally new idea they've never done something like it." I ranted off. Pulling out of the parking lot. "Honestly I think everyone should have been talking about cruel Hans was. Like damn make a girl fall in love with you and when she's sick and vulnerable. Then tell her you never loved her. You've been using her to get power and that she's going to die and you're going after her sister next. God the betrayal!" I glanced at Lincoln. He had a goofy smile on.

"You know your ranting about a Disney movie made for five year old?" I wonder how red I was at the moment. "But you forgot how this all could have been avoid if the parents made Elsa learn how to control her power and not to fear them."

"Yes! That's what I think too!" I shot out looking over at Lincoln forgetting for a second that I was driving.

"Careful." Lincoln grunted out as the car swerved. "You're driving don't get to caught up in your little rant" I laughed at that.

"Hah yes, very true I'm driving, but um Lincoln where am I driving to?" This time Lincoln was the one to jump.

"Oh yeah you'll need my address sorry." He was about to tell him when I have waved my hand in his face.

"Just put your address in my phone. Sad such a small town but I still don't know the streets." Lincoln chuckled as he put his address in.

"All done." He placed the phone down as we sat in silence as the GPS told us which way to go. When I had dropped off Lincoln and finally got home. I went to my room right away since both my parents weren't home yet. I laid in my bed for a moment looking over my room admiring my good taste until I heard a bing from my phone. I looked at it the message. "Guess who~" I laughed knowing right away who it could be even if I did recognize the number. But it was a bit of a dead give away when I read what the number was titled as. Abraham Lincoln.

Lol I may have hated a bit on Frozen this chap. But if Im gonna be honest I did like the movie. Though I was totally against it when it first came out. Like Ive only seen it once and in was two years after it came out. Was I taken back by how fucking curel Hans was. Yes. Who wouldve thought Disney could be so curel like yeh theyve had people trying to kill someone, but to go so far as to make this person "fall in love" with you then kill them *gasp* how brutal. I love it!
