Love in the Dark
I watched as his shinny velvet hair swished side to side. Every glance he gave to anyone, I would imagine being shot directly towards me. He had changed drastically since our childhood long ago. I could have never imagined he would be at a place like this… How was I so lucky to see my old unrequited love here, in all places? High school…
He is five years older than me, but it felt as if we were the same age. His face still held in a lot of youth for him being at least 22. He passed across the lot hastily, looking down at a watch that rested finely on his thin pale wrist. He had moved to Iceland when I was only 10. I remember it like it was yesterday, I remembered how I had cried harder than I have ever before. At that time, I hadn’t known I loved him with a passion at the time, but I had always known I was gay. Women weren’t something I liked to willfully look into.
I met him through my brother; I was only 3 at the time. He would have been 8 years old. I knew him really well, he and my brother practically raised me, my mother was always busy and my father had been murdered before I was born. I was born a week after he died, so my mother neglected to take care of me. My older brother took up the mother role and took care of me. I had a rough child hood, but it’s just as usual as the next guys. I’m fine. Just madly in love…
But back to the matter at hand, the one man I’ve been in love with for 7 years was only a few feet away from me. My feet couldn’t move, my heart raced as he walked passed me. My gaze met his back as he left as quickly as he came. I felt my heart throb, this would be it. This day was going to be great… I had a skip in my step as I walked off too my first period of my second day as a senior in high school.
I made my ways through the halls, being shoved by jocks and touched by cheerleaders. Nerd’s crept away to their corners, and the normal people just walked by. High school was a definite difficult thing. There was Drama, but only if you let it get to you. For me… it was like watching Glee, without the singing.
I have to admit, I had it easy, well for being gay, but I wasn’t very open about it. I had friends, and I wasn’t bullied. I’m 17, I have lovely blonde hair, and I’m about 5.11. Of course my future Lover is about 6. Ft now.
My sneakers squeaked against the floor as I walked to first period, it was only the second day and I could tell that my biology teacher was a bitch. He was, sadly to admit, rather handsome, but he was one of those teachers who sided with the people who like to speak out and act like total fucktards. I was more of a wall flower, even though I talk a little bit. I walked in late, and I could feel his bright blue eyes pierce my face.
“Mr. Parrish, you’re late…” he scowled.
“Mmhm…” I acknowledged.
“I want to see you after class.” The loud mouthed freaks snickered at my humiliation and a sly smirk crossed his face.
I made my way to my seat and slumped down just as class began, and by class, I mean a whole period of talking about who did what over the summer, how they got a new car, and how Chad dumped them. It was all a nuisance, but it didn’t bother me today, my future lover was waiting for me!
The class ended in a flash, I was filled with happy thoughts, but then I remembered that Mr. Panties in a twist wanted to see me. I walked up to his desk, and waited for him to finish grading papers.
He stopped, fixed his glasses and glared up at me. “Tell me why you were late Mr. Parrish.”
“Its hard to get through the hallways and cross the whole campus and get here on time?”
“Is that so, or…” he paused for a moment. “Were you fooling around?”
“Fooling around?” where the fuck was he getting at.
“I know you’re gay.”
This guy is a shit head. “No sir I wasn’t, I came straight to class.”
He smiled his evil, devious, grin. “Next time your late, I will tell the office you were sexually harassing other boys.”
“WHAT!? THAT’S NOT-“
“You’re dismissed.”
“But-“
“DISSMISSED.”
I hate him. I snarled as a stomped out of the room. It was a minor set back, but I still had my love on my mind..
