Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeZStQWVsf
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S0X37k7OG
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDW0Gz6UdN
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkbQl7Je5i
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDBKG0vBrH
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclKhpRlMD2
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9nHyVeEmT
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcxWlOTJcL
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBXaw2wdbI
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZali79Adh
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUPtSKj1hL
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr0RHspqJX
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHZNOyOSRD
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNll0ZWJq4
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2zmLnddJ7
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhb6XsK0YY
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."976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp31Pmv2NlA
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A3iZPgT0h
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqV5FJII9a
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCAKK1Tty1
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5acWPFWri
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh5jTfhuc7
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX0BJVMo2F
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowdN3kQmOr
"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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusbes4WwKz
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yZAQYR5CQ
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?"976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcVTPjuNE3
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBkSUTQSgP
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe1JBj6nxl
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLLbf9lumu
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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBFNZwVr6x
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8krUNLOcrn
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2aNtfTKDa
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcaYatDKCi
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7emvBJD3Ow
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3f187MzTS
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6orB56G60b
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qm1Cm1Hss
"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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNSJXaO2fR
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVxQLtAoyM
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSdvrdFiad
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfz43HJADy
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiECDvpuY1
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAEGhsIuoE
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..."976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHTO1sjNS2
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJH8RuQZeL
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreqzBkxv42
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbNbqrjin3
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."976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHmqPOgOYh
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgXhNC5a3r
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXFin3DDRl
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFqMFDWZT6
"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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqQHfrFzyJ
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKZvb7vMNM
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMYJxobwYA
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eiVocyVtX
"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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMHyT7VO6c
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lLfRHgYwV
"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.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3AbACewdi
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J0uReNPml
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIQQfzJ6MR
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF5UoYjUjn
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."976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoHBu2Hplf
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0S0FlYORP
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmoup2vqv0
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNxMpLbr4E
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDjIeOlrAI
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVPKtzSHrX
976Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt4hCiqwg3
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
