It was a warm may day when they met, a beautiful day to say the least. It was a school wide sports competition day, schools came to compete in games such as volleyball and basketball.
" Hey, miguel catch!" James was a asshole, he usally played tricks and games on people that got him in trouble way to many times.
Of course Migueal didn't catch the ball. Dumbass. The ball seemed to hit a boy sitting on the outskirts of the court, miguel ran over to see if he was okay.
" are you o-. " the boy was beautiful, amber eyes, red hair hes skin seemed soft and he definitely took care of it.
" woah, do you have any plans for tonight because I'll definitely mak-"
" no,, atleast I dont think, why do you ask?"
Migueal just chuckled
" hey! explain why you want to know what I'm doing after school"
" its nothing!"
" hmf! What's your name then?"
" Miguel. I'm a basketball player, we have the same gym and 2 period?"
" oh,, I'm Angel, I do ballet"
" you sure do look like a angel"
Angel was tooken back, he smiled and looked down
" why dont you come play with us?"
" I've never played basketball "
" if you show me one of your dances I'll teach you how to get good at it for a month"
" hm, okay!" He stood up " come on! I'm not very patient you know!!"
" God your tall,, okay, so " he grabbed hes arms " this position, it wont hurt your arms as bad. Now, look at the hoop and throw it"
He did so but unfortunately it missed
" ah! I'm so sorry should I have thrown it harder?"
" no need to say sorry man, your new so itll take some time. Dont stress out over it, we're going to play a game, you wanna join?"
" y-yes!! Please,,"
It was a fun match until James started screaming because he lost
" Damn it! I hate this game, I'm not playing with you anymore!"
" hey dont he a crybaby about it! "
Angel whined a little bit and sat down one the floor and laid hes head on hes knees and covered hes ears.
" yo Angel!" Migueal ran over to him when he figured it out
" hey, man.. Angel?"
" yo bro look at me, what's wrong? "
Still no response
" hey we won, if your sad about that"
Nothing
" Did he hurt your feelings?"
Dead silence
" do you need to go to the bath room with me?"
Angel touched hes hand
" that's the only reaction I get so it's a yes."
He grabbed Angel's arm and brought him into the bath room
" what's worng bud?"
He started crying
" hey hey! Dont cry, what happened?"
" hug me"
" hm?"
" do it please"
He wrapped hes arms around him and angel laid hes head on hes shoulder and sobbed
" shhhhh, it's okay I promise its okay.."
" loud. It was too loud"
" him yelling?"
" yes, my e-ears was pounding and my head hurt.."
" are you sick?"
" n-no.."
He squeezed him
" it scared me.. I thought he was going to hurt someone then everything hurt and my ears was ringing and and-"
" shhhhh, he isn't going to hurt anyone. Okay?"
" hes scary miguel, i dont like him"
" then i wont hang out when your around"
" wait, a-are you actually going to be my friend?"
" yeh, why do you seem surpised?"
" no one really ever liked me they always stayed away form me and acted like I was sick"
" why?"
Angel grunted and turned away
" you can tell me, I wont make fun of you"
" no, but you'll stop being my friend"
" what could be so worng that I would stop being your friend?"
" I have autism and that was a sensory overload, "
" what is that?"
" it's.. like when your running to many tabs on a computer and it doesnt run good.."
" so you kinda shut down?"
" in a way. Yeah,"
They stood their for a while in silence
" anything else I need to know about your condition so I can help?"
" you actually care?"
" of course, why wouldnt i"
" because its weird"
" it isnt werid, I dint really understand why you think so low about yourself, I still think of you as a person, why do you not?"
" people are scared or act weird around me because of it"
" explain please"
" everyone treats me like I'm dumb and baby me, I dont want to be babied, I dont think I'm dumb.."
" your not, your just as smart as everyone else, you just need help and that's fine! I dont get why people act to mean"
" I lash out alot when I'm stressed and I often get off topic and I dont really understand what's going on. They yell at me for not responding"
" what do you want people to do"
" ask again please, sometimes I dont hear you the frist time you speak"
" ah makes sense,go on"
" and I have this toy that helps me and alot of peoole ljke to take it and play with it without me telling them they can"
" so you need the toy?"
" yeah.."
" can I see it so I know what it is?"
" yeah! Wait a second "
But he couldnt find it and he seemed pretty upset
" hey! I cant find it!! Um where is it? It isnt in my pocket and-"
" it probably fell out in the gym, come on lets go get it, after that I'll walk you home and you can tell more about your self"
" o-oh okay ,um but I wanna know more about you since your goin to be my best friend, right?"
" of course bro, come on grab your bag and let's go to the gym"

He held hes hand
" I'll always listen, alright bud?"
He grabbed Angel's hand back
" yay! Also your breaking my hand,, let go a little "
" oh fuck"
