BULLY (choen)

13

Long story short, They were both got outside of school suspension for disturbing the peace. Noen's parents spoke to him but it didn't felt like it helped. The video of him and Chase were posted by several students in his school. He was felt really embarrassed about the whole situation. Kevin and Avani tried reaching out to him but Noen shut himself down.

The video was very popular when it was posted (on instagram) by this kid named Kyler. He was another person who irked Noen's soul. Him and Noen would argue in class about gay rights. He remembers the time Kyler said he would be best friends with a gay person but didn't support. He was a clown. Kyler's video of them had gotten over 10k views in span of a day.

Kyler captioned literally said, "gays are harassing straights now? not surprising coming from Eubanks" He never felt so furious in his life. He couldn't even read the comments without his blood boiling. Some people were defending him, along with his friends (grateful for) but they were some people siding with Kyler too.

Ugh, he was on the verge of throwing his phone across the room. He had to calm himself down though. He turned off all the lights in his room and laid face down on the pillow. The blonde haired boy had to take it easy anyway because he gained a huge migraine from being shoved.

Noen sobbed into the pillow. He could not help his feelings. This type of hurt wouldn't leave his chest. His throat felt tighten and it was hard to sallow. He hated how everything went wrong. Why would Chase kiss back if he didn't want it? He had to feel something for the older boy too if not. He wanted to relive that moment.

Not after nor before, the part when they kissed. Noen steady himself on his back. His eyes still remaining close, tracing his lips with his fingers. He remembers where Chase kissed him. How pillowy they were against his. He recalls Chase kinda smiling into the kiss. How Chase's breathing was softly tickling him because he was nervous.

How both of their hands rested on the edge of each other's thighs because they were uncertain how to touch each other. He missed it. Noen felt his stomach grow with butterflies. He wiped his face from his tears and reach to his nightstand to grab his note pad and pencil.

He ripped out the paper him and Chase had originally designed. He started stretching from his heart. If he was going to make art, he wanted it to be true. No bullshitting. This drawing was going to tell a story. A story of fear, acceptance, pain, heartbreak, and two boys who are too scared to fall in love.

Noen knew it wouldn't be picture perfect but he only knew one thing clear that he loved the boy. Very, very, profoundly. Too bad he did not realize the one who wanted to chase him was Jaden. The boy had been texting Noen repeatedly, trying to see if he was doing okay from earlier. Really, the only popular kid who defended him.

"So you're not going to put Chase in his place" Jaden voice was taut through the phone. He was annoyed that people even recorded and post it everywhere. He didn't like how Chase puts his hands on Noen nor shouted. He was fired up. "Just leave it alone J, It's pointless he's not going to stop" Anthony's voice was flat. It's not like he did not care but he realized not even him could stop him what happened at gym.

Plus, Anthony did not want to talk about Chase or have his name mentioned. "Ant you have to do something or I will do something" Jaden wasn't afraid to get messy if he needed to. Yes, he liked to be funny and stuff but he was not the one. If you hurt people he loved , there is a problem. He was already in front of Chase's house.

"Jaden don't.. stop trying to create drama" Anthony warned him. Jaden chuckled at his words because it was very hypothetical to tell him that. "Creating drama? you're the one who slept with Cynthia but I am the one who's making drama? okay mr. Hypocrite" Jaden hung up before Anthony could respond.

He got out his car and knocked on the Hudson's household. It didn't take long before Chase's stepmom opened the door. "Hey Jaden" She said with a bright smile while giving him a welcoming hug. "Hi Ms. Hudson .. Is Chase home?" Jaden questioned, smiling. She pointed to the backyard, "Right outside". He thanked her and made his way towards the yard.

He seen Chase sitting on the diving board, admiring at the chlorine that was shinning on his face. The brown haired boy looked dazed and lost. Jaden was almost concerned but he remembered what he was here for. "Why did you kiss him back" Jaden yelled, coming closer to him. Chase was not startled, it's liked he sense Jaden's presence already.

"Natural reflex" Chase answered. It wasn't. He kissed back because he wanted to. Chase would do again but he wouldn't say that. Not out-loud to the world. "And why did you shove him?" Jaden shouted. Nothing about the situation made sense to him. Even though it was from outsider point of view. "Why do you care? This isn't your business" Chase side eyed him.

He didn't like how Jaden came in territory and was provoking him with an interrogation. "He deserves better than you, way better.. You're a piece shit" Jaden laughed with his arms crossed. Chase didn't maintain eye contact with Jaden. Not like he was scared, the tall boy didn't want to look at anyone right now. Not even himself.

"You like him don't you? I don't care about you or your little boyfriend Jaden, you can get the fuck out of my face" Chase's voice was low and quiet. He let the cigarette travel between his lips. Letting the smoke enter his lungs and release into the air. The young boy would just  have to deal with complications later in life with his bad habit.

"I didn't even know you liked boys I should've known... adorable coming out to me really, Kiss Noen for me would you?" Chase continued. He really wasn't trying to be funny until Jaden grabbed him by the shirt. Forcing him to look at him. "Stay away from my boy Hudson, don't come near him again" Jaden was serious.

He liked Noen. He couldn't help being protective when it come to him. Maybe he was catching feelings for the blonde haired boy. It too bad that Noen did not feel the exact same as him. Chase didn't respond. Jaden glared at him before letting him go and leaving. The brown haired boy was tired of everything.

He hopped off the diving board, into the wintry pool. He let himself drown to the bottom of the pool, feeling that was only time he will be with tranquillity.
