  "Give me your phone number", Travis said holding his phone which was held inside a green phone case. Gene scoffed and handed his own phone over to Travis. They put their number into each other's phones before switching back.

"I'll text you the address of where we will meet to do this dumb project" Gene sneered before leaving the class room for lunch. Travis picked up his bag quickly stuffing his books into the bag. He walked down the hall keeping his head down low careful not to look in the eyes of anyone. He enters the lunch room and walks a whole five feet before being pushed to the ground. He looks at the person who pushed him and sees Sasha standing there smirking proudly. She chuckles and walks away back to Gene. Travis gets up quickly avoiding everyone's stares. He walks to his normal friend Rose sitting down next to her at a small wooden table next to the wall of the far corner of the lunch room. They ate their lunch silently because of how shy Rose is and how Travis didn't want to talk about Gene. Even though he would never admit it, Travis had a crush on the raven-haired boy. There was an electrical sensation that ran through Travis's body when Gene touched him, even if it's Gene pushing him to the ground. Rose knew this and knew that Travis didn't want to talk about this. Rose was a shadow night but she didn't agree with the things they did or how they bullied her friend. She knew why Gene bullied him though. Gene had many reasons but the main one was that he, too, crushed on Travis. He didn't want to believe it though so he turned to the ignoring the feelings and pushing him to the ground. Sometimes it worked but most of the time it didn't. Gene couldn't ignore these feelings.

Gene's POV:

"What is this feeling inside of me", I often thought while looking at white-haired male sitting a few tables away.

"Is this love?", I thought once more before shaking his head and leaving the lunch room. I walked on the sidewalk after leaving the school. My feet lead me to my normal abandoned park where I spend most of his time. I sat on the obviously empty swing moving it back and forth slightly. I shoot a quick text telling him the address and to hurry because I want to get this over with. I think over different things but my mind always wanders back to him...

Normal POV:

The white-haired boy jogs to the address sent by Gene so he won't keep the older male waiting. Travis knew he hated waiting. When Travis arrived at the address, he noticed how ruined it was and soon realized it was abandoned. He wandered around a little bit before finding the raven-haired boy sitting alone on a swing drowning in his own thoughts. Travis walked over to the taller male and sat on the swing next to him. He moved the swing back and forth just like the male did next to him.

"Hey Gene?", Travis asked; getting up and shaking him lightly. Gene felt a shock of electricity shoot through him when the white-haired boy touched him. Gene hummed in response.

"Ready to work on the project?", Travis spoke quietly to the male.

"Yeah sure", Gene responded getting up swiftly before walking over to a random tree and sitting under it on the soft grass. Travis joined him scooting towards Gene. Travis pulled out his notebook opening up to the pages that the project rules and getting to work. Gene spaced out the whole time while Travis worked through the project. Once done with the rough draft the small male felt his eyes grow heavy. Darkness soon consumed him but not before Travis could lay his head on Gene's shoulder. Gene looked at the male, whom snored lightly, before kissing the top of his head and smiled. He, soon too, fell asleep resting his head on top of Travis's.
