daniel had went to school the next morning, with a limp. no one paid attention, as usual,, but daniel felt like crying.
the night before he was finally gonna be able to get a good night of sleep, but no. his mother came home tipsy, around 2am.
she went to his room to say goodnight, but as she did, she saw the bruises on his arms, and the slight black eye.
she shook daniel awake violently by the hips, causing more bruising.
daniel was startled, to say the least. she shoved him off the bed, having him fall to the wood floor harshly.
she ended up mostly kicking daniel until he looked almost lifeless.
so daniel walked in school with limp, not wanting to be bothered. but of course, his wishes never get granted.
as daniel walked carelessly to his locker, he ran into jonah. he sunk into his body not wanting to be embarrassed.
"hey" jonah said with his deep voice, daniel being intimidated at his actions.
daniel didn't respond, instead looked jonah dead in the eye, afraid if he made a wrong move, he would be dead meat. after previous events, people had that effect on him.
"look," jonah started. daniel knew where the conversation was going.
"i never meant to be so straight forward about yesterday. i- I just want you to consider it." jonah whispered.
being mindful of the fact that they were still in the middle of the hallway.
every kid questioned, why jonah marais was talking to daniel seavey. the popular and the loser.
daniel continued to stare at jonah. the moment had happened again.
where daniel feels like he is not talking to popular jonah marais, the boy he bullied him.
but a jonah marais where he was sweet, caring, and wise jonah marais. one who actually gave a damn about other people's feelings.
but as long as that moment lasted, he realized, that wasn't possible. a jonah like that.
or is that he just didn't want to believe that, and was doing his best to deny it.
daniel snapped out of his train of thought and shook his head.
"i-i don't want to consider it. w-why should i, w-when all you ever d-did is hurt me. a-and now y-you just want me to g-go and do stuff f-for your benefit? t-that's not how t-this works." daniel whispered-yelled.
jonah was taken aback by daniel's small outburst.
meanwhile, daniel felt like crying, once again. he had already felt like it this morning, but jonah had just made it worse.
so daniel had sighed under his breath, and moved past jonah as he kept his head down.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
it was lunch now and daniel was sitting with jack outside in the patio of school.
daniel at first wanted to sit alone, but when jack saw him alone through the cafeteria window, he ran outside and insisted that he sat with daniel.
so here they were sitting and talking.
surprisingly, daniel had warmed up to jack pretty quickly.
"so is anything special going on with your life?" jack questioned.
daniel thought about it, and he wanted help with jonah and his situation. but he didn't want to tell jack it was jonah.
jack would nearly freak out if daniel told him it was jonah.
jack did not like jonah, anymore, at all. jack never understood how someone could have such a heart to hurt people so bad.
jack was truly a very sweet person. he was always happy and bubbly. he was a funny person too, with a great personality.
but daniel decided to tell him, without including the person so that jack wouldn't freak out.
"we'll there is this person, and they basically want to be friends with benefits? no more like fuck buddies. and I don't know what to say." daniel stated.
jack nodded his head sipping his apple juice. "i think you should say yes, i mean take the offer of pleasure. and i don't know maybe you might fall in love." jack shrugged his shoulders.
daniel nearly chocked. fall in love? with jonah marais?
surely, jack was confused. he didn't know why daniel acted that way with jack's words.
"what?" jack asked. "fall in love? with this person? no."
"why not?" jack questioned once again. "because," and that's where daniel left jack.
"at least do it for the pleasure," jack shrugged and went on his phone. "you don't get that everyday."
so daniel thought about it. maybe i might say yes...
