Greyson Brown (boyxboy)

Chapter 8

Dylan was sitting in the kitchen by the time I woke up from my nap. Shit I totally forgot. With a sigh, I grabbed some water from the fridge and sat across from him.

"Greyson left an hour ago." He said looking anywhere but me.

"What's your deal? It's not like I've never walked in on you with a girl." I scuffed and wished he would just tell me what's on his mind. "And don't you go saying anything sentimental, everyone knows you hate me."

"Adrien-"

"No, go on, tell me. What speech did you have prepared?" I said and raised my eyebrows. "Go on, give it your best go, older brother." The sarcasm dripped from my throat.

Dylan cleated his throat and rolled his eyes. "Just that, you know, be careful with guys like Greyson."

"Guys like Greyson? You're acting as if I'm dating him." I said finishing my water with a laugh. I'd never date Greyson.

"You're not dating him? Then what-you guys are hooking up?" Dylan asked shaking his head.

"Yes, I would never date him." I said rolling my eyes and grabbing another water bottle from the fridge. "We done here?"

"Ye-yes, wait, Adrien-"

"What Dylan?" I want this conversation to be over.

"Are you g-gay?" Dylan asked with such discomfort. Rolling my eyes again, I turned my body towards him and actually made eye contact.

"Would it change your opinion of me if I was?"

School seemed quiet today. Greyson wasn't here which is most likely why. Ian sat down next to me in class and gave me a tight lipped smile.

"What's wrong?" I asked knowing that smile. He shook his head and turned back to the front of the class. "Tell me."

"It's nothing." He said with a sigh and began to take notes. Rolling my eyes, I took notes in the notebook and remembered we still have to finish the project and we haven't worked on it since Thursday.

Ian must have read my mind because he slipped me a piece of paper.

'My house at 7' which is fine because I work from 2:30-6:30. I nodded my head and slipped the paper back to him.

School seemed so empty without Greyson and I'm just that invisible without him. Without him here, only Ian talks to me. But then again, that is of my own doing. Me not talking to anyone and being a bitch to those that do.

Self isolation.

With a sigh, I grabbed my lunch and began to head outside when Ian caught up to me. Confused, he laughed at my expression.

"What? I can't sit with you?"

"You never sit with me." I pointed out and gestured back to his table, people already looking at the two of us. "Not in forever."

"Well, I want to." He said putting his hand on the small of my back and practically pushed me out the door. I almost tripped if it wasn't for who caught me.

It was one of the football players, Ian's friends. I can tell Ian was acting weird now as he tensed up. The boy laughed and studied my face, his arms still on my shoulders.

What's going on?

"Ian, where are you going? Our table is that way." The guy said? Still holding onto me. I gulped and watched Ian who kept his eyes on the boy's hands that were still on me.

It sounded like a threat almost.

"I'm walking my friend to the nurses office Julian, of course." His friend? He called me his friend in front of this guy. We're friends?

"He looks fine to me, how about both of you come sit with us." Julian insisted, pushing me, but I didn't move. He obviously doesn't know who I am. And when he pushed again, I passed my food to Ian and pushed this guy away from me.

"Don't fucking touch me!" I yelled getting everyone's attention. "I have fucking bruises from your fucking hands!"

"You want to fight is that it?" Julian said rolling up the sleeves to his shirt. I laughed and put my hands up in mock surrender.

"Stop it please! You're the one who came up to me and just put your hands on my shoulders! Then you tried to push me! Look I swear I'll give you that quickie later, just not in front of all of these-" with a smile on my face, Julian grabbed me by the shoulders and slammed me against the wall, almost punching me.

"Shut the fuck up or else my friends and girlfriend are going to fuck you up." Julian threaded, his fist drawn back.

I made sure to raise my voice this time, even louder. "Julian! Not in front of everyone! I thought you wanted to keep it a secret!"

My eyes glanced over at Ian who was laughing on the floor, unbothered that I was about to be hit. But he sobered up and looked around.

"Julian! Look, I told you already I'll keep you guy's secret, but as I said, he needs to go to the nurses office! You put it in too deep last time!" Ian yelled coming to my side just in time for Julian to drop me and for Julian's girlfriend to come up beside us.

She was in tears, the little bitch, and shook her head. "Please don't tell me it's true, please don't tell me that you're g-g-g-g-g-"

"Gay." I coughed and leaned into Ian's arms as if I was exhausted and tried to hide the smile. "I'm sorry, I told him to tell his girlfriend, but he kept coming back for more and would grow violent like this when he wouldn't leave me alone."

I faked a cry into Ian's chest and smiled when Julian tried to justify himself.

"Babe, it's not true! Don't believe them!"

"But it explains why you've been leaving me all this time! Why you wouldn't tell me where you're going and who the fuck you're going with you fucking cheater! You're gay!" She cried and slapped the shit out of Julian. 

"Myerium! Please! Babe!" Julian cried and turned back towards us as I fake wiped the tears out of my eyes. With a smile on my face, I watched as he came up to me face. "I'll make your life a living hell, Adrien."

Grabbing onto the collar of his shirt, I went on my tippy toes and whispered into his ear, "You can't fuck with someone who's fucked."

He looked at me confused but left us alone as I grabbed my food from Ian and walked out the cafeteria. Ian blabbered on about how impressed he was and he's never heard me talk so loud. I laughed and as we walked outside, a gust of wind blew right past us.

Looking around, everything seemed so vibrant-

Dropping my food onto the ground, I grabbed my phone and checked the date.

Fuck! How could I have forgotten! Then again, I always sucked at it when she was alive.

"It's her birthday." I whispered and shook my head, tears streaming down my face. "It's her birthday and I almost forgot."

Ian looked down at the ground and nodded his head, rubbing his eyes. "Yeah, that's why I was surprised to see you today."

"We have to go."

"Go where?"

"We have to go see her! She can't be alone on her birthday!"
