"I'm... G-gay." Virgil told him as he sat down.

"R-really?" Roman sat there in shock. That boy, was gay. 

He's like you, Roman.

"Y-yeah." Then Virgil turned his head away so the teen wouldn't see his embarrassment.

"O-okay." Roman took a deep breath. "I'm gay."

Virgil picked up his head and looked at Roman differently.

"Really?" He asked.

"Yeah." Then Roman did something he's never done before. He hugged a boy. More specifically, Virgil. Then, Virgil hugged back.

"This is amazing." Virgil mumbled.

"It really is." He mumbled back. 

Afterwards, Virgil took out his earbuds and smiled. He gave an earbud to Roman and took one for himself. Ease My Mind, from the album they both knew perfectly, started.

Most days I wake up with a pit in my chest


There are thoughts that I can't put to rest


There's a worry that I can't place


Most nights, I am restless and quiet won't come


So I lay there and wait for the sun


There's a trouble that won't show its face


You came out of nowhere and you cut through all the noise


I make sense to the madness when I listen to your voice


Darling, only you can ease my mind


Help me leave these lonely thoughts behind

A little later, after a few songs, the bus pulled to a halt at the school. The two boys got off the bus, their hands interlocked. 

"What's your homeroom?" He questioned.

"Oh, you don't want to know." Virgil responded.

"Yes I do."

"Room 373."

"Oh no. That sucks."

"Yeah, it's horrible. She is a literal witch." They both chuckled.

"Ugh. Well my homeroom is this way, so I'll see you first period during Drama?"

"Of course." Virgil replied and their hands released as they walked their separate ways.

*Sorry if this is bad too. Also, sorry it's short. I am like in a mood to write, and I am rushing for some reason. Anyway, critique my writing in the comments, thanks!*
