Loving can hurt

Chapter.1

   "Loving can hurt" I never really put much thought in those three words Ed Sheeran said in one of his songs, I thought that maybe love hurts, but it won't hurt that much... Right?

   "I said do not, never, ever hang out with that faggot!" Said Fumi's mother, akari.
Fumi was shocked of his mother's reaction, specially that she really loves tomoe, he never expected his mother to have such manners.

10 minutes ago.

"Mom, did you know? Tomoe came out to me as an bisexual yesterday!" Said fumi, with a happy tune, his mood was really good that morning, unlike his mom who was really shocked by what her son told her, she replied with a confused face, "uhm, what did you say? I was in a daze so...", hoping that she heard it wrong.
"Tomoe, he told me that he's bisexual when we-"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Akari shouted with a bit of a high tuned voice while looking at her shocked son.
"M- mom what's the matter?..." Fumi said, he looked like a stray cat saying it, he was a bit scared of his mom, he knows that she might be overreacting sometimes, but that was not overreacting, sadly that was pure hate, and disgust.

Fumi
"Just... Don't hang out with him anymore honey, it's totally uncomfortable to have a homo around" eh? What does that mean?
"Erm.... Mom you know it's tomoe, right?"
"Ahaha so what honey, homos are homos"
"Mom! What do you mean stay away from him?!" Oops my voice came out louder than I thought it would be.
"Fumi! You should already know that he's disgusting!"
Did she just say disgusting... Wait wait wait...
"Mom, he's just bisexual , that doesn't change the fact that he's my best friend!"
"I said do not, never, ever hang out with that faggot!"
"Eh-...." I was just, shocked and confused as hell.
"Sakurakouji fumi, do not ever mention that faggot's name in this household" she took her phone and went out.
I went back to my room after the deama my mom made, I'm just really confused now I mean, he's just bisexual what does that got to do with her, it's not like he will kill her it's just-
Ugh I should think of what comes next, how should I face tomoe now... I'll just go to college and figure it out when I see him, I'm sure nothing will happen.

The next day

I was standing in front if the cafeteria, waiting for tomoe, to be honest I was so nervous, well all I can do is hope that it goes well.
"Fumi!" I shivered, tomoe called out to me and then he came running.
"Hey there, what happened to your phone"
"Eh, my phone? Ah oh I locked it yesterday so I could focus on studying and stuff"
"Studying for what, we just started college"
"Uh yeah I'm just preparing well I started cram school as well" crap that was a lie, oh my lord he knows that I don't go to cram schools, shit.
"Umm fumi" ah, his expression changed, he looks a bit... Disappointed?
"Are you acting weird because of what I said two days ago? You were acting just fine when I told you... I guess you gave it some deep thought" ah no, crap I'm being a coward, I have to tell him what happened!
"No! Tomoe it's just that-"
"It's fine fumi... I'm going to my classes now so..."
"Wait tomoe!"
Aah shit, I didn't mean to act like that, what do I do, I mean I was about to blurt to his face that my mom hates him now, I just want everything to calm a bit, everyone is misunderstanding me, I just *sob* need some *sob* time to sort it out.
Eh people are looking at me, shit I'm, crying? But why...

story teller
Fumi started running, he went to the storage room behind the campus building, he sat with his back on the door, thinking how will he reconcile with tomoe, and get his mom to understand what he understood, he was stressed and panicking a bit, after ten minutes, he just exploded and started crying out loud, everybody needs to cry out loud from time to time, to reveal stress, but fumi didn't need something like that, he rarely feels stressed, it was a first for him, to be so frustrated and confused-
"Ack shit you crying?" A voice said.
Fumi was surprised and a bit scared at first, he thought he was alone there.
"Uhm sorry I didn't think someone would be here, I'll go now, I'm sorry"
"No no, it's fine it's just I was skipping class and slept here but as soon as I woke up I heard something crying, it really startled me"
"I'm *hic* sorry I didn't mean to"
"I know I know"
Then an awkward moment of silence, well except that fumi was crying but not as hard as before.
"Hey, can I ask you, what happend, I mean you seem like you have big trouble there"
Fumi looked at that guy with a blank look, he was just staring for seconds with a poker face.
"I- Don't even know your name..."
"Ah sorry, I'm saiki ayato"
"I'm sakurakouji fumi, nice to meet you"
"So now you're going to speak?"
Ayato was sitting backwards on a chair with his hands folded around the chair and his head resting between his hands, while fumi was sitting on the ground with his hands around his legs.
"Umm I don't think it's something you'd like to hear"
"Think of it, I'm a total stranger that can't take any advantages of you, nor harm you in anyway possible, and you're really sad and yo need to talk to someone, it's convenient isn't?" Ayato was really curios, he really wanted to know who is fumi? Why is he crying, he didn't really think why did he want to know but he just wanted to know.
"Umm you think it's fine if I tell you?"
"Yup, totally fine"
"Then..."
Fumi started talking about all of his troubles and ayato listened carefully while asking some questions now and then.
"So your friend, umm tomoe, doesn't want to talk to you?"
"I don't know he just went to his classes with a sad expression in his face"
"Isn't he your nest friend? Just tell him through a massage and then meet with him and it's all good"
"I will try that out... Thank you aya- saiki san, I'm sorry if I troubled you with my problems"
"No it's really fine by me, I hope everything gets better from now on"
"I hope so too, then, see you around!"
"Ah wait!"
"Hmm?"
Ayato was confused, why did he call out to him? He was just filling his free time with a conversation with a stranger, why did he call out to him even though he doesn't have something to say?
"Etooo, can..."
"Yes?"
"C- can you meet me again tomorrow?"
