Janus groaned tiredly as his alarm went off in his ears, cursing under his breath as he sat up "Hm" He must've fallen asleep at his desk. He rubbed his sore neck and got up, walking over to his closet. His room was mostly empty besides a bed, a desk, and a few stuffed animals from Remus. He stared at his binder, ignoring his chest. He had saved up his lunch money for nearly 6 months to buy it without his mother knowing. Not that she would care, she didn't care when he cut his hair or when he got vitiligo over the left side of his body. His clear caramel skin littered with a lighter shade starting at the left side of his face.
After a few moments of hesitation, he put on the binder and looked at his reflection, a small smile appearing on his face at the sight of his flat chest. He slipped a white shirt and jeans on with a yellow and black hoodie over it. After grabbing his backpack he slowly walked down the stairs, nearly slipping near the bottom. He grabbed his beanie and walked into the kitchen, sighing when he saw his mother, leaning against the counter on her phone " Oh hey little Jayd "
Janus groaned at the nickname, it came from his dead middle name, Jayda" Hi " He mumbled in response
" You don't mind making yourself breakfast, lunch, and dinner right?" She asked
" I won't be back 'til late " Janus merely nodded, opening the fridge and pulling out sandwich meat and cheese. He started making himself a lunch, flinching when he heard the door open then shut again but relaxing when he realized it was just his mother leaving.
He put his lunch into his backpack and walked out the door, cool spring air biting at his warm skin. He didn't really mind the name Janus but to him, it was a bit girly. It was a nickname from Remus at first then it just stuck. Speaking of the trash man, Janus seen Remus waiting for him at the crosswalk, he sped up his face so that Remus wouldn't have to wait that much longer " Hey Jan!"
" 'morning Remus " The shorter male yawned glancing at his chaotic friend
" Hey Remusss, could you... call me Dee..?" Janus asked quietly, his lisp shining through and looking away from Remus
" Sure why? You didn't like Jay and now you don't like Janus?" He shifted his feet then started walking across the road with Remus
" I just think Janus is a bit girly.."
" Well, I think it suits you! " He grinned as we walked towards the school, passing trees with new leaves growing on every branch
" You think I'm girly?" Janus asked, looking at him
" Yep," He answered simply, stretching out his arms. Janus knew that Remus was joking and that he didn't know he was transgender, so why did it hurt as much as it did? He elbowed Remus in the ribs earning a loud " ouch! " and a pout from his taller friend.
They kept walking and soon got to the school gates " Janus you should join the boys' volleyball team!" He immediately shook his head
" Whaatt? Come on please, if you don't like it you can leave!" Janus huffed, not wanting to make Remus upset
" Fine but you're buying me curry buns after school " Remus quickly nodded
" Great, we just have to go to one of the gyms during lunch " Janus watched his only friend run off to classes and sighed looking down. He's going to be mostly alone for his next few classes, he was born a year too late.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The male stared at the gym doors, he could hear the sound of sneakers streaking against the floor and volleyballs hitting the ground. He hesitated slowly taking a few steps forward, then suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder and flinched, luckily it was just Remus " Hey double Dee " Janus chuckled slightly
" Come on don't worry " Remus walked forward and opened the gym doors and Janus walked in with him.
He froze, there was like 4 players on the court. There was one who was lanky and around 6'1 wearing square-framed glasses with dark brown almost black hair, he instantly knew he had to be a middle blocker, the position that helps stop the other team's spikes. Then there was a short one who had curly light blonde hair and round glasses, he was wearing a light grey cardigan over his white practice shirt, he was a setter and 5'11. Then the libero, a 5'9 male with black hair dyed dark purple at the end. Then, lastly, there was what must be one of their wing spikers or something, he was 6'0, had naturally red-ish brown hair that fell slightly over his right eye and had the tips dyed red, his face littered with freckles but he seemed remarkably like Remus
Janus caught himself staring at the boys and quickly looked away. Then two people walked past him, the captain and another wing spiker "I happen to be the ace, Dee " Janus looked at Remus
" Really?" He nodded proudly before walking out onto the court, Janus following quickly
" Janus, look, this is my twin!"
" what?"
I stayed up 'til 3:15 am making this I got a bit sleepy near the end so it got kinda sloppy sorry I also didn't proofread so again sorry
