The Screwups (WiP)

Chapter 2

Later...
Once class ended, Will packed up his things and was ready to head to lunch when he felt something or someone grab his arm. He turned around to see it was Jasper and tilted his head and confusion. Jasper took off the hoodie from his head and got up to walk with Will. "Uh, hey, I was thinking, wanna sit with me and some friends at lunch?" Will's eyes grew wide. "No, its fine- I dont- H-huh?! " He waved his hands frantically in a way to not worry Jasper. Jasper laughed and grabbed his hand, running down the steps.

"Too late!" Will tried his best to not fall face flat. "H-holy shit!- Wait!-" Jasper turned around in confusion and let go. They had gotten to the bottom of the stairs. Jasper heard a thud and looked down. He put his hand over his mouth as to prevent the sound of his laughter. Will had tripped and, luckily, was able to catch his things. But him on the other hand? Well~ He had face planted to the floor catching his things.

"Ow." He said muffled into the floor. He manuvered himself to sit down. He crossed his arms. "Dont laugh! You couldve atleast warned me first! Jeez." He stood on his feet, dusting himself off. He picked up his things and headed for the cafeteria. Jasper was about to follow him and apologize, when he saw his glasses. 'He had probably forgotten them when he fell' Jasper thought.

He picked up the glasses and took a look at them. The lens were foggy and a bit cracked. On the side of the glasses were W.P scratched into them. "Heh." He put it in the pocket of his hoodie and went after Will. He had already went inside, leaving Jasper to search for him. He saw Will talking to 2 other guys and waved. Will saw this and gave a nervous look. He waved goodbye to them and walked over to Jasper with a bit of embarrassment for some reason.

Jasper smiled and led Will to their lunch table. They took a seat as Jasper introduced all his friends to Will. "This is Tanem, Muffin, Sue, and Brat."

Brat: "How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that!?"

Tanem: "Relax babe. Greet the guest of honour." He laughed.

Brat sighed in annoyance. "Guys." She mumbled under her breath as she crossed her arms. Sue giggles as she writes in her journal. Muffin was playing on his nintendo switch.
Jasper nudges Will a little. "Well, Introduce yourself." Jasper seemed calm about this, as other seemed... questionable. Will sat there in a bit of worry, feeling himself shake. "W-will." Was all the words he could muster. It was weird just sitting there waiting for something to happen. Bully? Prank? He just felt something was gonna go wrong. It was in his gut. Jasper and Tanem made eye contact and exchange a couple looks.

Jasper shrugged and gave a reassuring smile. "Its okay to-" He was interrupted by Brat.  "To be honest, Im pretty sure we already know who you are." Jasper raised a brow. He didnt know anything, for once, he was purely oblivious. Brat scrolled through her phone and pulled up a picture. "That's you, right?" She gave a devilish look. The picture was of Will with one of the guy's from the table they had just left. Will had been kissing them, with the word GAY plastered on the front of it.

Will looked pissed, but also sad. "So~ Who's the-" Tanem grabbed Brat by the shoulder and scolded her. "Dont do that. You know thats messed up." He gave a slight pained and forced smile. Brat sighed. "What? I just wanted to know why he was kissing Marc evans. And if-" Jasper took the phone out of her grasp and took a closer look at the picture. "Hey!" Will's hands turned to fists in his lap. He tried not to cry. What could he say? That its a misunderstanding? That it was just a one time thing, that... that..."I- Ive gotta go." The tears flowed in his eyes as he got up and left the cafeteria.

Jasper: "Man, I knew Marc was a total dipshit. But... wtf happened?" He looked at the cafeteria door. He couldnt help but be confused and pissed for Will.

Tanem: "Hey, He isnt that bad. Calm your shit."

Jasper: "No. Just because your cool with him, doesnt mean I have to be." Now he just wanted answers. He got up and left out the cafeteria, looking for Will. He was now super irritated the more he thought about it. Why did Tanem have to defend Marc? He knows what he went through hanging around him. Its stupid that he would'nt defend him. "He's known me longer than anyone. He bullies people and is a total prick. What the fu-"

He slammed the bathroom door open to hear crying. It caught him off gaurd more than anything but... he knew who it was. He was plastered all over his face, afterall. He walked over to the bathroom stall that the crying was coming from and knocked on the door.

Will: " *sniff* h-huh? " He wiped his face with his arm.

Jasper: "hey... You alright?" He put his hands into his pockets and sat infront of the door, waiting for a response. There was only silence though.
Will had been sitting on the toilet cover with his feet close to his chest. He wrapped his arms around his legs and looked at his lap. "I... I didnt do it." He explained.

Jasper: "You did'nt do what?" He said as he tilted his head to look at the window shining light through the dark bathroom.

Will: "I didnt kiss him. Im not like that. I didnt-" he felt tears swell in his eyes again. Jasper sighed. "I could say I believe you, which I do. But other people would say the picture means otherwise." He said in a low tone, trying to sound calm. Will went silent for awhile again.

Jasper: "Y'know, I know we kinda just met but... Is it okay if I call you a friend? I know your probably going through stuff and friendship is probs the last thing on your mind. But... I think you could use one." He gave a slight smile, continuing to look at the window.

Will: " U-uh. *sniff* Y-yeah. That... sounds nice." He chuckled a bit.

Jasper: "Man, Marc must be a real bad kisser, huh?" He joking said, with laughter. 
Will laughed. "Y-yeah. Terrible kisser. Nice hair though. Hehheh." A smile crept across Will's face. This... was nice. In a weird way, he had a friend.
