A little bit of love (boy x boy)

Chap 2. Not all relationships are perfect

  Lucas woke up the very next day, with the familiar aching on his wrists. Yesterday.... He still had a little headache. But at least, it's still bearable. 

  He got up and did his morning routine. The mirror was reflecting him while he brush his teeth. A few bruises on his face and.....very pale looking. 

  He sighs and continue without another word. 

  The minute he got down the stairs, he can't say he's surprised to see the whole mess. Broken tables and chairs, broken dishes and food litter. All on the floor. 

  Every time after Luke abuses him, he always find the house ' slightly ' messier than it was on yesterday. 

  ' Luke really has the learn to clean his messes. ' Lucas grumble under his breath. After cleaning up, he adjusted himself and sling his bag across his shoulder. Without a second glance, he left for school. 

  The minute Luke heard the door close with a bang, he got up immediately. He rushes to dress up and pack his bag. 

  He got to the room in the far corner and opens it as quietly as possible. Relieve flows to him when he sees the person inside is still asleep. 

  He closes the door back up and headed downstairs. The room was clean. 

  ' Thanks. ' he said to no one. Luke made breakfast and grab himself a toast. ' Sweet school time... ' he mutters and too, left. 

  The honking and shouting of the school was too loud to be missed. Lucas clutches on to his bag tighter as he imagine himself walking towards the waiting hell. 

  Lucas did a lot of dashing and avoiding till he finally made it to his locker. It was a real rusty one and he had to give it a few hit before it opens. He took the books he needed for the first period, which is English and put the others back in. 

  English. It wasn't his favourite subject but he still likes the class because of the teacher , Mrs Elly. She is a woman in her early thirties but still has a cheerful and kind aura around her. It makes Lucas feel.....welcome. Unlike his other teachers. 

  Again, he was not surprised to see he was the first to reach the classroom. He took his usual seat. Up in the very front. He also does like the one beside the window but.... ' I'll make an exception. Just today . ' he smiles and flop down. 

  After 10 minutes of him just staring at the board, he sees a hand waving before him. ' Lucas, bro. I've been calling you for like....5 times. Are you okay ? ' Lucas look up, only to see his best buddy,  Charles Kingston. 

  The handsome blond boy is Lucas's best friend since they were 9. They were inseparable. If you see Lucas, you can always catch Charles beside him. Same goes for the other way around. 

  ' Nah. I'm just ..... nothing. Tired. ' he simply made an excuse. Charles sat beside him, took out the books and place them neatly on the top right corner of the table. He has this little habit for a neat table. 

  ' I think Imma break up with Charlette. ' Charles suddenly said out of nowhere, making Lucas almost spew the water he was drinking. ' What the hell? Why? You guys were like..... the best couple ever!!! ' Lucas immediately confronted his best friend. 

  ' Are we? ' was all Charles reply. ' Is this a joke? ' Lucas knew those two too well to even think they were breaking up. 

  Before Charles could even say anything , a loud piercing scream was heard from the classroom door. 

  ' Charlie!!! Baby!!! Why didn't you call me this morning to wake me up!!?  We could go to school together!!! ' Charlette was standing there with her hands crossed.
