Why did he hate me so much? Pretty much everyone in school was cool with me being gay. Why was he homophobic? I didn't want to think about the repercussions of being in love with the only homophobic guy in the school. He made it clear that any advances on my part would be kindly met with a fist to the face. God that was sexy as hell though.
Shut up Lyal. Its not sexy, it's wrong. Like someone who actually likes you for once, like George.
"Lyal, man, what did you do to that guy? I didn't believe you when you said he hated you but I guess that just answers that." George shook his head in disbelief. All my friends were shocked at the blatant threat. Joshua's face was filled with such anger, the likes of which I had never seen.
"I think he caught me checking him out once. He started glareing at me ever since." I replied sadly.
"He didn't seem that bad in middle school. No wonder we stopped being friends, he's such an ass, I'm sorry about him Lyal. Make sure to stick close to us just in case he tries anything ok?" George looked worried for my safety. I couldn't have asked for a better friend, but that was all I wanted from George, friendship. Sadly George admitted to wanting more but we stayed friends after my rejection. If it weren't for Joshua I would probably be holding hands with George as he walked me to class right now.
"Thanks George but I'll be fine." Thats when the bell rang and I wandered off to class. At least I tried to. My class was as far from the lockers as one could get so naturally I was one of five straglers still rushing to class when the final bell rang. I was one hall away when somone stopped me. I couldn't believe who it was when I looked back. Was he here to beat me up now that all my friends weren't around?
