CHAPTER ONE, PART SEVEN.

TELL ME YOUR SECRET, YOUR DIRTY LITTLE SECRET

A weekend of lazing around all Sunday and doing nothing important came to an end and the 5 kids were back to school, not Lily, she dropped out. Athien saw Sebastian leaning on his locker, writing. He rushed over.

" Hey! What are you writing? " Athien tries to peak but Sebastian hides his work.

" It's, uh, nothing. " Sebastian attempted to smile reassuringly. Athien nodded his head.

" What class do you have next? " He stood next to him.

" Oh, I have a free period. " Sebastian turned around, opened his locker, and put away his book.

" Well, I don't, so I better get going, see you! " Athien waved away and was off to class. Sebastian let out a relieved sigh. He sat on a bench near his locker with his walkman, food, and backpack sitting next to him. He noticed a couple of feet away some familiar-looking boys were messing with a locker and snickering. He waited for the guys to go away, grabbed his backpack, and walked up to the locker, it wasn't damaged, but there was a folded-up bit of paper taped to the locker, he was hesitant but ripped it off and read it. It was a very homophobic letter to Athien. First Sebastian hadn't even noticed it was his locker, but he was incredibly hurt just by reading the disgusting note. He couldn't let Athien see it, so he scrunched it up and tucked it in his backpack, the bell went off and Sebastian rushed in the direction of his next class.

" So how was the sleepover? " Jordan smiled and faced Sebastian.

" Oh, it was good, we mainly just read comics. " He replied. Jordy slowly turned her head away and whispered something.

" What was that? " He leaned in, asking.

" Oh, nothing, ignore me. " She continues doing her work, leaving Sebastian confused but faces the window, enjoying the view.

Before the kids knew it, a while flew by, meaning it was June now. They hung out sometimes and had a genuinely great time, but Athien appreciated the time way more when Sebastian was around, which is why they had another sleepover.

" I'm going to get you! " Athien chased Sebastian around his hall with his arms out.

" Okay, okay! You win! " Sebastian grabs out his backpack, reaches for his inhaler, and takes a puff.

" Haha! Yeah, I do! " Athien posed as if he were Superman.

" Hey. " Athiens mum taps his shoulder and crouches down.

" If you want, I can let you boys go explore... without Lily. " She smiled.

" Oh gosh?! " Athien had sparkles in his eyes, his mum nodded.

" Thank you! " He gave her a giant hug.

" Come on, let's go! " Before Sebastian could speak, he yanked his wrist and flew out of the house. They walked through the streets.

" Where do you want to go? Oh, maybe the abandoned house on Neibolt? " Athien jokes.

" You're kidding, right? That place is crazy haunted! " Sebastian was shocked at Athien's sudden bravery.

" Oh, come on, what are you, scared? Live life to the fullest, man! Do things you're terrified of, trust me! " Athein smiles and walks in the direction of the good house. Both boys deep down were scared, but acted like this was a piece of cake.

They arrived.

" Well, in we go... " Athien turned the knob slowly and walked in, holding Sebastian's hand.
