Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDUKqF2Bqx
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6d9B1hYs0B
He sighed, pulling at his hoodie a bit to cover his face more, and he looked down at his blue, worn sneakers through blurry eyes.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcuO8nwVP9
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QrQXxAxqI
At this hour, it was safe to say most of the city was asleep, but he was wide awake. Mentally tired, but he was wide awake. He didn't feel sleepy at all, and he wouldn't dare close his eyes right now.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn7nfn6eg6
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ859RIp80WV
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNRgbhgv8V
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyr3oKNYIV
The teen held back a sob, rubbing his arm against his face to get rid of the tears. He just wanted to forget right now. It'd be good for his anxiety to just pretend he lived a different life for now.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fH3CZHguc
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4cqeFUhHZ
Then he quickly rushed into a small, run-down restaurant that stayed open even at night. Of course, the place was very empty, save a woman behind the counter and a young man at one of the few tables.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6UOqbCKC3
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNK5by1mfR
The teen sighed again, feeling a bit better in the warm room instead of the crippling cold air that somehow made him feel even more numb then he already was. He walked over to one of the tables--the one near the other teen--collapsing in it and pulling his hoodie back, revealing his black shaggy hair.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQue6a2J05y
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49MKwLRdQi
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b2fOMVB4s
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaIAXXc8FN
The teen thought about it for a moment. He didn't feel like eating. And he didn't have much money on him. "Hot tea."973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz1sGpZrtb
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNMcA4Kbwd
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixoZUDh9AJ
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAtU3ImLRm
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5WrMDjCGH
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbVFSUIknK
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifqD6NnseL
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHAC5ho7je
"I can say the same. And anyways, haven't you ever heard that you shouldn't talk to strangers?" The teen snapped again, this time glaring at the light brown, messy haired boy.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1LPei9LGk
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSUYcmMeEc
The second boy laughed a little. "Well, when you can't even trust your family to not hurt you, does it even matter then? Plus, think about it, how would anyone make friends if they didn't talk to strangers?"973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7r95Clxua
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NQzyZpkwV
The black haired boy stared at him curiously, though didn't say anything, and the other boy didn't say anything else since the waitress walked back over, placing a mug of hot tea in front the black haired teen.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpcTP13aA1
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXDT8YN0RG
Though once she left, the brown haired boy stood up with his plate of some sort of cake with white frosting on it, walking over to the black haired boys table, sitting down.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79VPWp04vk
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfb7tUPNWL
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xaCtC6qN5
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs93RQ73NcF
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP7Vrvnt63
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00MIk0QhFP
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq28OjQEUiw
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGqoferebb
"Sure thing." The woman told him, grabbing up a small clean dish and walking over to the table, setting it down, and the brown haired boy transferred one of the pieces of the cake to the other plate, sliding it over to the other teen. "Relax, Stranger, I just ordered this cake, so its not like I had enough time to poison it." The second teen joked, glancing at the boy across him.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUV9f2UKyEd
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf1vyyvxCe
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjSYABo1Et
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaCMpOoUsj
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CZgeqcLH1
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoVZiBuBj1
The black haired teen grabbed up a spoon that was on the napkin beside his mug, before bringing it over to his cake to cut a small bit off to start with. "Thank you..."973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVCH0urdYg
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi96doPlCdR
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1ulobKUAY
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pNtJrbQa7
The black haired boy glanced down into his mug, looking at his reflection, and when he didn't answer the teen, the guy shifted, sighing slightly. "I mean, we're strangers, bound to never meet again, and we both have our problems, so we might as well get it off our chests, since I'm sure you have no one to talk to, and I don't either."973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgF9Z4yzK9
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2J4Irptju
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0eAIo32hp
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxJC7mSEwP
"My parents are both really strict and are complete jerks who don't understand me, and yell at me and get on to me about every little thing, and I'm tired of it. I don't have any friends, save my boyfriend who just slapped me and yelled at me before breaking up." He explained snappily, and he could feel the tears welling up in his eyes again.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni7N3QsTLz
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvA4NX6J1N
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbwVTVcPga
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFzs8RyNY0
"Yeah...and honestly, they barely accepted me for it." The black haired teen muttered, taking another bite of his cake...it tasted like chocolate and it was so amazing. It basically melted in his mouth too. And the hot tea went well with it.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ5hudV26d
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Hcnw0ksfB
"Well, at least they kinda accepted you." The brown haired teen told him with a gentle smile, standing up and pulling some money out of his pocket and laying it down on the table before starting to walk out of the building.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouAcTtV5cl
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGK0VfmAl3
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedgggrWYav
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJBchUaHUs
Then the other teen smiled at him. "Oh, I ran away. My parents couldn't accept me, and I was constantly being used by other boys. Nice talking to you, Stranger."973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAvs7nQ7eM
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM7wE4GVNf
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTkFQK9yVI
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRecGzAEFfX
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSRj2jAPj8
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtrbuZzRf6
973Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e2w4rtZvL
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
