Dale and Victor ( The meeting )
Dale struggled to open his locker door. He had never had this problem before, it was probably because he was rushing and getting the numbers wrong. After the 20th try, he finaly got it open. He threw in all his books and grabbed his lunch. As he slammed the door closed the lunch bell rang. " Great what timing," he thought to himself as he walked out to the court yard.
Skipping classes,Victor sat under the farthest tree from the doors listening to his music an singing lowly to him self when ever there wasn't food in his mouth, as he finished his food that he had been staring at all day he looked around an noticed that the bell had just rang.He sat there for a few more seconds and then got up and walked in to the school through the front doors,(there's more)
He noticed that there was a fair amount of poeple around which caused him to feel uncomfortable, he continued to walk with his head facing the ground looking up every now and then to make sure he didn't walk into anybody.As he made it to his locker he quickly sat down and remained quiet, Victor was one of the biggest out cast in the school but didn't care.
Dale looked around in the school yard and noticed that his friends had already scored a table. He smiled and ran over to them dropping his lunch into a nearby Garbage can. "Hi all," He said as he sat down at the table. They all smiled and waved hello, some of the girls came and kissed him on the cheek. he was never really fond of that. As he looked around, he caught a glimpse of his so callled best friend standing in a group, Dale sighed. "Why does he have to do that," He thought " even if he is openly gay, Geezz York,"
Victor got lost within his music, he soon stood up and began to wonder around the school as he did every day, as he came across the court yard he glanced in and noticed everybody that he didn't talk to and laughed lightly at himself for being such an outcast in the school,' and to think I have to be here a few more years' he muderted to himself as he blanckly continued to stare as he once again got completly lost with in the lyrics of his music.
Dale looked over at the window of the court yard and noticed Victor. He kept a good eye on him before York called his name. he looked over and waved, then looked back to see that the guy he was watching had left. He looked down at the table and sighed before York came and slapped him on the back. Dale loked up at him and shook his head no before getting up, excusing himself to the library.(m.t.c)
As he entered the library he grabbed a school year book and started flipping through it looking for the guy he had just seen.
Victor was lost in his own world when he entered the library for his dayly trip to drop off his borowed book and find another that he wished to read, he began to look through each and every book reading the backs very quickly. After he went through about ten-to-fifteen books he sighed and sat against a book self,"gawd this sucks," he said out loud to himself then blasted his music and relaxed
Dale looked at who had entered the library, noticing that it wass the same guy he was looking up in the year book. A little embarresed he quickly threw the book onto the shelf, as well as getting an evil eye form the librarien. He looked at her and shrugged his shoulders before going and hidding in the history section. He started to feel a weird emotion in his heart but totaly ignored it.He sat down on the floor and leaned his head on the bookshelf. He then decided that he wasn't going to class and passed out on the floor in the history book part of the library.
Hearing the bell ring Victor new that today wasn't a good day therefor didn't attened any of his classes that say and began t sing to himself thinking that he was the only one within the library besides the librarian,after his tailbone began to hurt from sitting on the ground he got up and sat on a chair still singing to the music t himself as he put his rested his head on his knees while he hugged his knees to his chest and closed his eyes getting lost with in his thought about how un needed all the peope in the school were.
After a while Dale woke up and crawled to the end of the book shelf to see what time it was. As he looked out, he noticed that Victor, or so the picture he found in the year book said was still sitting there. With a small gasp, he wipped back around the shelf, out of sight. He then crawled back to the corner he had been sleeping in and sat back down. He would leave after, victor had long left.
Hearing a sound Victor got up and looked around, he soon got up and walked towards the place were the sound came from and noticed that there was someone there,"...um....hi...,"he said,"...um .....how long have you been there?" he asked,studering and he turned red thinking that he had heard him sing.
Dale got up and wipped off the dirt that had gathered together on his blakc jeans. He then leaned up against the wall. " I've been here since the middle of lunch," he said as he brushed his bangs out of his hazzel eyes.
hearing thoughs words cause Victor to got totally red from embarrassment,"...oh....ok well..." he just stopped speaking in the middle of his sentence and then turned around and made his way half way to the table and then looked over his shoulder ," please don't tell anyone," he said as he rand a hand through his black hair thinking that Dale had heard him singing then quickly made his way back to the table and looked way from the area were Dale was sitting, as he covered him face with his hair and hands no wanting anyone to see his now totally redened face.
Dale raised an eyebrow then waited a moment before walkig over to the table. he kneeled down and crossed his amrs on the table and placed his chin on his arms. "Okay," he replied " but umm.. your going to have to fill me in on what IM not supose to be telling anyone,"he said smiling cheek to cheeks. He then tilted his to one side and closed his eyes for a moment. He wasn't aout to tell him that he had actually fallen asleep to victor singing.
With a still very red face Victor looked at Dale and asked,"...so you.....didn't hear me sing?" as he noticed what he just asked and then hit his head n the table.Knowing he shouldn't have done that his linghtning blue eyes began to water from the pain of hitting his head on the table as he once again started to hug his knees only cause he found it to be a fairly comfortabnle posission to sit in.
Dale gave a weak smile and stood up. He found it amusing that this 2nd year would go red, just from being talked to. He then grabbed a chair and sat on it backwards, crossing his arms on the back of the chair. " So that was you.. " he said in a teasing voice then ened up laughing.." No I didn't hear you, I fell asleep."
Victor found himself relieved that Dale fell asleep and didn't heard him,"...ok that's good......I don't have a good voice so I'd rather you be asleep," he said being totally truth having a problem doing that, as the redness began to fade from his cheeck so they were more of a pinkish colour.
Dale watched as the color fadded away in victor's cheeks. He then sighed and heared the bell saying school was over. He jumped up from his chair and ran for the door. Before he went to grabb the handle he turned around and waved good bye to Victor.
Victor waved back to Dale and then just sat there for a few minutes. After his face was no longer red he quikly found a book that looked good, checked it out and then left, as he left the library he saw that there was only a few people around,he sighed with relife and a small smile appeared on his lips as he made his way to his locker. When he got there he didn't ever open it,he just sat infront of his as he banged his head against it,"gawd I don't want to be here," he mudered to himself beleiving that he was alone mearly cause the hall was empty.
Dale opened his locker and dropped his books down into the bottom. It looked so empty and un-needed. he grabbed his jacket and his car keys and started toward the door. As he passed the restrooms, he went inside to saok his face. He filled the sink almost all the way then dunkeed his head into the water. After a bit he pulled it up and wiped himself off. He exited and again headed toward the door.
Hearing footstep Victor looked up for and then rested his head in his arms as he began to fall asleep,"Damn it I need to get more sleep!," he yelled at himself as he hit his head agains the locker again hopping to become unconsious and sleep for the next few days, but ofcourse failing like he did everyday.
Dale ran his hannd threw his hair and water dropplets fell onto his face. He wipped them away and continued walking. With out even noticing, he started to walk by Victor. he only noticed as he was walking by and caught a glimpse as he turned his head to look for anyone.
Victor's lightning blue eyes remained shut,not wanting to see anyone," god stike me now," he mudered as his face was facing the cieling and he had a weak smile on his face for no reason, "if you can that is," he softly added then sighed again and lookde at the floor seeing shoes walk by,'great someone's here,' he though to himself.
Dale stopped infront of victor and bent down. " Alittle late to be sitting on the school floor,huh," He said.
Victor's blue eyes shot up and looked at Dale,"...I guess...but it's not like have anything better to do then to waist,"he began the weak smile fading as his eyes wandered back to the floor,"alone," he added in a low almost whipering like voice as an unhuppy and uncalming look apeared on his face.
Dale looked at him then held out his hand. " Why don't you come have coffe with me then I'll drive you home" He said in a calm voice.
Victor look up at Dale with a shocked and confusted look on his face,"um...ok,"Victor said totally confused and he took Dale's hand and got up,'odd no one ever wants to ever be around me," he thouhgt to himself as the weak smile appeared on his lips again from a somewhat unexplanble happy feeling.
Dale smiled and started walking toward the doors. " What's up with you?" he asked victor about his weird smile. Dale wasn't one to not notice anything, like this unknown feeling in his heart.
Victor look at Dale still with a confused look,"...what do you mean by that?" he asked in a low tone.
Dale ran his finfers though his wet hair again then gave a dashign smile. " Well your all like happy and s**t when you where all screw the world a few minutes ago," He said anwsering his question
Victor laughed lightly at the answer and looked down at the floor," I'm not esactly the kinda person people like....I thkn that's the simpelest way to put it," he said as he felt his eyes begin to water.
Dale looked at him then smiled. " Well, I was like that omce to." he said " but the I found York!"
Victor continued to look at the ground trying to hold back the tears," well then you're lucky," he said trying t keep a steady voice as he talked to Dale.
Dale put his key into te lock of his car then nodded that the door was open to victor. "I wasn't always lucky" He said while starting the car " it took me a long time to get where I am now."
Victor quietly got in to the car and fouced a smile hoping that his face wasn't red as he looked up," I've never been luck in my life...so I don't think I would start...now," he said not really even knowing what he was talking about.
Dale smiled and shook his head. He pulled into the coffe shop parking lot ten turned off the car. He opened his door and then looked back into the car at victor. " Well are you coming or am I locking you up in the car?" he teased.
Dale looked over at victor and smiled. He then turned the key over then pulled out of the parking lot. He kept is eyes on the road. " On the floor nest to your feet, are some cds," He said still looking at the road " go ahead and pick one if you'd like."
Victor glanced over at Dale with a weak smile and then down at the cd's he was talking about,"No it's ok,I would reather not listen to music right now," he said as he glanced at Dale for the second time then out the window, feeling quite nevrous but not care that much about it.
Dale smiled and shook his head. He pulled into the coffe shop parking lot ten turned off the car. He opened his door and then looked back into the car at victor. " Well are you coming or am I locking you up in the car?" he teased.
From hearing thoughs words a larger grin like smile appered on Victor's lips,"Ya I'm coming,"he said as he lighted lightly and got out of the car,the moment he was out of the car he coved his mouth and part of his nose trying to cover the smile that wouldn't leave his lips.
Dale laughed and locked his car up. He then smiled and looked at victor for a momment before he leaned on the roof of his car and tilted his head to the side." Are you always this fun to be around?" he said as he got off the roof and headed toward the door.
Victor slightly glared at Dale the moment he though he was out of his sight as he soon followed Dale yawning as he walked fowards he. Almost beside Dale he askes in a anoyyed playful like voice,"and what do you mean by that?!" as he sideglanced at Dale thinking,'gawd I am so not acting like myself.'
Dale opened the door and smiled. " Well, Im injoying myself being with you, and i was just wondering if you where always this fun," he anwsered.
Victor looked at him for a few moments trying to figure out how someone can enjoy being with him but soon gave up on trying to figue it out,not wanting to give himself a headake,"I don't beleive I am, but then again," he began as he walked inside,"I'm not normally around people," he said not feeling the tinyest bit upset about that and finding it odd that he didn't.
Dale smiled and followed Victor into the cafe. He then walked up to the counter and smiled at the lady behind the counter. " The usual Fanky okay and what you want?" he said to victor.
Victor looked at Dale then at the menu sign," I guess a vanilla hot smothy," and the nodded but more to himself then to anyone around him, and then ran a hand through his hair in order to fix his hair.
Dale smiled then nodded at Franky. She smiled and went off to get them. Dale looked over at victor and put his hand on his shoulder. " Go grab a seat i'll be right there," she said in a calm cooling voice.
"Okay," Victor said simply and he smiled weakly at Dale and then wonderes off to a far seat near a window, as he stared out it lost in his thoughts of why he felt eneasy yet comfortable around Dale at the same time.
"Okay," Victor said simply and he smiled weakly at Dale and then wonderes off to a far seat near a window, as he stared out it lost in his thoughts of why he felt eneasy yet comfortable around Dale at the same time.
Dale smiled then grabbed the drinks aand walked over to the table. He then handed Victors drink to him then sat down across from him. He then drank his drink. " So tell me what youur into." Dale said while looking down at the table.
Victor looked at Dale trying to think about what he enjooied to do, after a few minutes of no response he finally said,"...I just I don't really know,"he said thinking that.that sounded completly retarded as he added,"if that means sence." as he began to slowly drink his hot smoothy.
Dale looked up with a hint of amusement in his eyes. " well then," he said " Well My Name is Dale, im 18 years old, 4th year. I love rock music and drawing. Driving my motorbike and other stuff." He then took a drink then looked back up. " Well thats me , So who are you," he said in a moking tone.
Victor looked at him trying not to laugh, once don't chocking back the laughter he bagan ,"My names Victor, I'm 15,second year..." he stopped feeling the laughter returning, biting his bottom lip he tried to hold it in ," I write poetry, read and don't really like music,a.." he then quickly covered his face with his hand and rested his elbows on the table now not being able to hold back the
Dale put his elbows on the table and rested his head on his heads. He smiled then tried to hold back laughter aswell but it came out. As he started to relax he tried to drink but it came out his nose. He then laughted even harder.
:
Victor looked up after he stored laughing and looked at Dale then the laughter came back in full, but this time not being able to contain it he just let it out as his face began to turn slightly red from laughing to much.
Dale smiled and blushed. He then wipped then underside of his nose. " Well that was embaressing," he said while laughing.
Victor bit the bottom lip again and closed his eyes knowing that his face had to be red from laughing by now and just nodded to Dale's remark not wanting to say anything, cause he didn't want to start laughing again.
Dale watched Victor for a minute then leaned back i his seat. He never guessed that a younger man could be so much fun then inside his head Victors smile shined. he shook it away then drank his drink again.
Victor finally opened his eyes and he whiped the tears that had formed in them from laughing to had and then looking in to hot smoothy as a small but visable smile apeared on his face.
Dale smiled then looked at his watch. " Hmm almost time to go"
Victor look up at him the smile still lingering on his face as he took another sip of his hot smooth that was now only warm and then said," Okay," with the follow of a small yawn.
Dale laughed thne threw out his cup. He then smiled and beckened Victor. " Time to go," he said with a giggle.
Victor sighed and finished his drink then crushed and threw it out and followed behind Dale as he streched and yawns, not from being tired of bored but from sitting down for too long. He then pulled out a pack of strawberry & kiwii splash gum and pop on in him mouth," Want one?" he offered Dale.
