The Past

Chapter 3

Warning cursing ahead
[Sebastian(Barry)]
Barry walked out watching his cousin or well his soon to be sister once the name change/guardianship/adoption papers went through. "C'mon! My best friend Thalia and her brother are out here!" Stacy says grinning wildly. "Coming" He says pulling his sling on and slipping his cast through. Luckily he'd be getting it off in a few days but then again in a few days he'd no longer be Barry Allen. Officially. "This is Thalia and that is Thad." Stacy says smiling wildly. "Hi again Sasha. Who'd you bring with you?" Thad? Asked looking straight at me. "This is my cousin/brother!" She squealed excitedly. "Adopted brother but yeah cousin. Sebastian" Sebastian says. I hope he just doesn't question it he thinks. "Cool. I'm Thad. So I don't think your from around here because I've never seen you before." Thad says. "Uh. I just er moved here from Central City...Missouri. As already mentioned in her cousin not her biological brother" Sebastian said scratching the back of his neck.
  Thalia and Stacy were watching the older boys talk when Thalia's sister who was home from college came over. "Hey Thalia, Sasha, Thad, new boy. Wait who's the new guy?" She asked. "Oh right hey Taylor this is Sebastian Stacy's older brother." Thad says grinning wildly. "Taylor. I'm Thaddeus' sister" she said with a smirk. "Taylor! You said you'd never tell anyone my full name!" Thad says irritated. Sebastian started laughing. "I don't know if that or Bartholomew is worse" he says between the laughs. "Who said anything about a Bartholomew?" Asks Thad. "Oh right my real full name is Bartholomew Henry Allen. But I was always called Barry Allen. I changed it when I came here because of the bullies who do you think broke my arm" Sebarry says motioning to his sling.
"It's getting cold at here you guys wanna head to the Lima bean I can drive" Taylor says. Stacy shrugs and Thalia sighs. "It's the local Coffee shop" Thad whispers.
Lima Bean
  The teenagers were sitting in a booth in the back with coffees while Stacy and Thalia were boredly (A/N:is that a word?) drinking slushees we picked up on the way. Sebastian looked down at his phone where his uncle texted him about going to tour the school he'd be going to soon. A private prep-school in Westerville called Dalton Academy. It had a no-bullying tolerance though which was good in his case. "Monday I'm going to get a tour of Dalton which is where my uncle is putting me at." Sebastian said turning his phone off. "That's where I go!" Thad said grinning. "You don't seem like a preppy" Sebastian commented. "Well neither do you Bas..you mind if I call you Bas?" Thad asks Sebastian shrugs. "Pleasedon'tkillmeIgotodaltonbecauseatmyoldschoolIwasbulliedforbeinggay." Thad says really fast. Sebastian just looks at him understanding nothing of what he just said. Taking a Deep breath Thad whispers. "I had to transfer because of bullies. They bullied me for being gay" Sebastian nods sympathetic. "Please don't hate me." He says. "I don't hate people for that.." he trails off.
"Ooh who ya textin" Thad asks. "No one" Sebastian says a bit of Barry slipping out as he shoves his phone in his pocket. "That means it's clearly someone who's the girl or guy? I don't know what your into" he says trying to get Sebastian's phone. He gives him a glare that could make anyone become submissive. "I give. So can you sing because if you do go to Dalton there's this show choir there called the Warblers and we're kinda good and there's a couple spots open" Thad said grinning. "I don't sing. Plus I'm not too good on my feet." Barry says. "Bazzy can sing he's done it and is really good at it" Stacy said grinning. Thad looks at him raising an eyebrow. "Never said I couldn't I said I don't" Sebastian says his soon to be famous smirk plastered on his face. "Smartass" Thad mutters.

One week later
"Bas! You packed" Matt Smythe yells. "Yeah Coming!" Sebastian says lugging his suitcase and passport out to the car. He throws his stuff in the back and takes out his iPod to listen to music.

France

"It's been so long since I've seen you Barry. Wow you've grown" his Aunt May says hugging him. "Thanks Aunt May" Barry said hugging back before taking his bag upstairs. He turns on his computer getting a phone call from Iris.
Iris: You make it to France okay?
  "Yeah I did." Was all Sebastian said unpacking his suitcase while holding the phone with his shoulder.
Iris: make sure to take pictures oh what I would give to be in France the city of love
"I will and you can come here on what I'd give to be in Central City the city of my falsely imprisoned father and bullies" Sebastian mocks.
Iris: Not funny Barry
  "Sorry. I do miss home though. I really wish I could still be there" Barry says staring out the window.
Iris: it's safer there for you Barr
  "I know I know" he sighed heading downstairs hanging up. "Hey Barry can you go to the store and get some things for dinner." Aunt May says handing him a list. "Uh Yeah." He says heading down the street. He opens the door to the store walking in to get the stuff.
"l'argent maintenant"(translation: money now) a mugger says to a teenager. "Je n'ai pas d'argent"(translation: I don't have any money) "laisse la tranquille!" (Translation:leave her alone) Sebastian shouts in French kicking the mugger who turned on him. "Why should I?"(just pretend italics is French right now) "Well my father is what you'd call a states attorney. Unless you'd like to end up in the slammer I suggest you leave. Or so your imbecilic brain can process it leave. Or. I'll. Call. The. Cops." Sebastian said. After he left the girl looks at him. "Why'd you do that" she says. In English. "You know English?" Barry asks surprised. "Yeah my parents are American but we moved here recently for my dad's work" she says. "But I could've handled him thanks" she says crossing her arms. "Well could I at least have your name?" Sebastian asks charmingly. "Hm. I guess I owe you one. Alex. Moony." She says holding out her hand. "Sebastian. Smythe." Sebastian says smirking. "Here's my number. If you wanna hang out sometime I'll be at the karaoke bar with my friend Marcus Friday at 7 there's the address." She smirked back walking off.
