"𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐀𝐋 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘" STANLEY BARBER X READER

#𝗢𝗡𝗘

Classes are boring as ever. Math class. 'My favorite!' Fuck that. All I seem to do is Doodle in my notebook; weird creatures. I don't don't know why. I guess they make me feel, better? Like I'm not the only weird thing in this classroom? Well that's fucking dumb.

I close my notebook out of frustration. I lay my head on my hand, looking at the front of the classroom. Then to the clock. Class will be over in five minutes. Great.

Now that I'm actually looking around the classroom. Nobody is paying attention, I mean I don't blame them. But, some of them make it too obvious.

I look at the clock again. Three minutes. hurray. I wonder what Sydney is doing. Probably the same thing. Not paying attention. Both of us have a few things in common. One of them being that we hate math. And can be VERY sarcastic.

My eyes lay on the clock once more, one more minute. Fuck yeah. I need to get home and just relax. I'll probably do my homework before I go to bed. That will definitely get me to sleep easier. I wonder if Sydney wants to walk home together.

Both of us have a understanding if, we just want to be alone. Then we walk home alone. I know how she gets mad easily, and she needs her space. She knows i feel anxious 24/7, so she gives me space.

*🅁🄸🄽🄶*

Ah yes, the school bell. Finally. Somewhat freedom for a few hours, then back to this prison. I packed my notebooks into my bag, zipping it up, then swinging it on my back.

I walk out of the classroom, looking at the school doors. Liam will probably be hungry when he gets home. I'll try to make him something to eat. Considering mom will 100% be working all day.

Waiting for Sydney. I look at the sky. Bored. Really bored.

Ugh, Sydney hurry up please. I feel as if everyone is looking at me, being a idiot and waiting. I put my hands in my pockets, bitting my lips. Looking away from everyone, so that it can somewhat make me feel better I guess. Why am I like this.

"Earth to nerd."

I look to the left and see Sydney. She looks tired, And mad. Guess I'll be walking home alone today.

"Walk home alone?"

"Yup."

"Long way or short way?"

"Long way."

"Ooooh, that bad?"

She just gives me a death glare. "Shut up."

"I'll see you at home."

We go our separate ways. I get my phone and earbuds, putting it on shuffle. My hands still in my pockets, one earbud out. To make sure I can somewhat hear my surroundings. I just want to lay down and cry for some reason.

I guess that's a teenager thing. Sometimes getting the feeling like you want to cry. It's just, out of nowhere. Sometimes you can save those tears for later, or, you just cry at that moment. But I think I can wait. My urge to cry isn't that bad.

Almost home.

Now, Dina. Me Sydney and Dina are all friends. It just kinda happened. The other day though, Dina talked about us having crushes. And me and Sydney should find a date so we can all go to homecoming together. But I don't even think I like anyone. Everyone here is either a asshole, or a weirdo. Then again I am weird myself, but some people can be straight up weird. So then it's settled. I'm not going to homecoming. Because there's literally no one to go with-

"Hey Y/n!"

I look to my left and see Stanley. Someone who is also weird like me, but weird-er

"Hey-uh... Stanley."

He ran up to me. Our height difference is a bit different. I mean, I have to look up at him a bit.

"Hold on, my foots asleep."

He stretches a bit, I take out my earbud. You can hear my music. Which makes me feel like he can judge my music taste. So I turn it all the way down. He finishes stretching,

"Can I walk with you?"

"I-don't see why not."

"Cool, ᴄᴏᴏʟ."

We both walk to the direction of my house, I look down at his feet. Which have no socks or shoes on them.

"No...Shoes today?"

"Shoes, who needs 'em?"

"Heh, yeah, ʏᴇᴀʜ."

I put my earbuds in my pocket, making sure my hands are still in my pockets. I fidget with my fingers, since it feels so awkward.

"Sooo, uh....Bloodwitch am I right?"

"Blood...witch? Uh- What is that exactly?"

"Bloodwitch. Do you like their music?"

"You know, that's a really weird name."

I look at him, to which he looks back at me.

"Now I'm interested. I'll have to check them out."

"Oh. I-uh- have 'em on vinyl... limited edition, gatefold and stuff. If you want you could come over, and we can listen to them sometime. We could also get high."

That's a lot to process. Get high? I didn't think i'de be high in my life. Life has been shit lately. Maybe it could help with me feeling so nervous and anxious all the time.

"Uh-sure. Never been high before though, so there's that. I'll just have to take a nap before I come over."

Why did I say that.

"Heh, okay. You don't have to though. I was just saying- since- uh- we live so close and all."

I think about it, going on my tippy-toes. Then going on my heels.

"Yeah, why not? I mean I wouldn't give up an opportunity to listen to a band called 'Bloodwitch'. Again, very interesting name"

He smiles a bit and chuckles.

"Cool, uh...let me know."

He puts his sunglasses on while walking away. He turns to me and smiles.

"What a world we live in, Y/n"

He does a bow which makes me smile a bit.

"See ya."

I nod my head, and he turns and skips away. Which also makes me smile again.

But man, was that fucking weird.

*🅂🄺🄸🄿*

I'm laying in my bed, finishing my homework. While Working on it, I get a text message.

Unknown: Hey this is Stanley, here's some of Bloodwitch songs

Unknown: link://Bloodwitch

I click on the link, a song starts to play. I put in my earbuds, enjoying the music. Not gonna lie, it's really good. Maybe I should check them out.
