~February 21, Friday~

"Hey, Jack," Francis smirked, walking alongside John.

John was going back to his dorm. Wanting Francis gone, he walked in a faster pace.

"Aw, Jackie. Come on," He pouted, running to catch up. "I know you love me."

John muttered, "You know I fricking hate you."

"Wrong answer."

He and Francis reached his dorm. John opened the door and entered, blocking Francis from entering.

"Go to hell," He said firmly, shutting the door.

He groaned and immediately ran in his room. He threw his bag at the corner, and flopped on his bed, tired.

Tired.
Tired of Francis following him like a lost puppy.
Tired of his homophobic father.

"What are you up to, Francis?" John whispered, a worried expression on his face.

~~×~~

"Where is he?"

"In his dorm, sir."

"Okay," Henry said, from the other side of the call.

"Sir, please," Francis frowned. "He's gay, I know it."

"Any..evidence?"

Francis stayed silent, not wanting his "boss" to find out that he himself was gay. And if he did find out, it's possible he could end up getting hurt, as Henry was a homophobe.

He sighed, "No, sir."

"Well, I won't believe you until such evidence is found. I know my son is straight."

"And evidence that he is straight?" He grinned mischievously.

Henry hesitated, "He has a girlfriend-"

"He doesn't have a girlfriend. It's all fake."

"How are you to know?"

"Oh, I just so happened to overhear a little conversation between him and his friends..."

"No son of mine will be - be a fag. That would be a disgrace to our family name! In the meantime, keep close watch to him. Follow him. If you can, discretely."

"Of course," Francis saluted, then slowly lowered his hand, realizing Mr. Laurens could not see him.

"Good. Bye, now."

"Bye."

He ended the call and charged his phone. Francis went outside of the room and was greeted by the one and only, James Reynolds.

"Man, thanks for letting me stay at your dorm," Francis grinned, shaking Reynolds' hand.

"No problem. My old roommate moved away from me a few months back," He said.

"Oh, how come?"

He shrugged, "Eh, probably because I always blackmail people."

"Hey, you know how to blackmail?" Francis slyly smiled.
