Vance's POV:
I sent that last message then turned off my phone, ignoring any notifications from those idiots. I glance over at Bruce who is desperately trying to get the permanent marker off his nose, I laughed and he looked at me.

"Quit laughing I'm dead later because of you." He sounded almost annoyed with me, did I go too far? Fuck what if he doesn't want to be my friend anymore..what if- no Vance stop overthinking, it was a harmless joke right?..

I started silently panicking while my mind flooded with thoughts, Bruce must've noticed this because he whispered my name and put his hand on my shoulder. I flinched a bit and looked at him.

I was fighting demons trying not to laugh, he had permanent marker smeared all over his nose. He whispered my name again and this time I answered.

"Sorry what? Oh yeah I'm okay, just uh..thinking." I shot a quick smile at him, but I doubt he believed me. "Are you sure? You look like you're panicking."

He gave me a worried look and I couldn't help but blush slightly, he cared for me? Of all people Bruce Yamada cared for me.

Once he went back to listening to our teacher I took my phone out under the desk and messaged Robin

Bruce's POV:
I put my phone away before the teacher sees it and I raise my hand, I ask to go to the bathroom. "Make it quick Mr. Yamada." The teacher says as he hands me the bathroom pass.

I nod and walk out, instead of going to the bathroom I go to the front of the school. I open one of the doors to see Vance leaning against the wall. "Finally, I was about to leave you here." He walked a bit closer causing me to look up at him.

He was a few inches taller than me so I always had to look up at him. "Let's go before we're caught." He says as he grabs my hand and drags me to his car. I feel my face red the entire time, I don't think he realizes we're holding hands.

Once we got to his car he lets go of my hand and gets into the driver's seat. I looked at him for a moment only to realize he might have been just as red in the face as I was, his cheeks and ears were a tint of red.

Vance's POV:
I started the car and pulled out of the parking lot, half way to my house I realized Bruce was staring at me, almost like he was zoned out? I gently touched his shoulder. "Bruce, you alright?"

It looks like that worked, he shook his head and put his hand on the back of his neck. "Sorry- I zoned out." He chuckled nervously and looked out the window. "It's fine I guess." I said, as I pulled into my driveway.

I opened my door and got out, he did the same. We walked up to the front door and I opened it. I grabbed his arm and sped-walked to my room upstairs. "Woah Vance, what's the rush?" He asked and I looked at him. "Sorry, it's just if my dad sees that I'm skipping school he's most likely going to smash a vase over my head."

I laughed nervously and he looked at me with a shocked expression, great. "Vance, your dad is abusive towards you?" He walked up to me and looked up in my direction. "Yeah, he is. But it's normal and I'm used to it so there's no need to worry about me." I tried to reassure him.

"Vance, in no universe is that normal!" He raised his voice and I quickly hushed him and looked at my door. "Shut your trap before my dad wakes up!" I whisper-yelled. He put his hands over his mouth and whispered "Sorry sorry!"

We were talking about school and reasons we hated it, that was until about 30 minutes of talking I heard footsteps in the hall, I quickly hushed him and we looked at the space under my door.

We saw the shadow of two feet stop Infront of the door, then walk away, then we heard someone I assumed was my dad going downstairs. I let out a breath I had no idea I was holding, it looks like Bruce did the same.
