The New Student

Chapter 39: Homosexual

You guys probably have an idea what this chapter is going to be right? Well, here's another chapter to Daniel and Mathews! (some people spell it as Matthew) but with another same-sex couples, who is it? (Hint: It will have the return of two mentioned characters)

Daniel's POV

I opened my eyes to the sound of Tyler shuffling through his bag. I sat up and rubbed my eyes still had that sleepy face. "Tyler?" "Oh hey, you're up. I... I gotta go, I don't have much time to explain. I won't return until Sunday" "Wait, you don't have any cl-" "I have to go, bye" he said and slammed the door. I sat there on my bed, confused of what just happened. Everything occurred within the time of a gunshot. My mind finally functioned to comprehended what passed. The room was completely silence, not even a sound, even from the corridors, they were not a sign of a person. I sat there some more time for the sleepiness to escape and stood up. I looked on the table where my phone was charging and saw some texts from the one and only Mathews. Yep, we have started talking via text and became quite close, not as close as I did to Paton. I read through them

Mattie Cutie: dude, are you there? 10:09

Mattie Cutie: daniel? come on reply! 10:10

Mattie Cutie: theres a party downtown reply if you wanna come 10:12

Mattie Cutie: are you coming dude? please its gonna be fun 10:15

Mattie Cutie: did i do something to upset you? reply please 10:16

Mattie Cutie: ill take that as a no then ill just go with the others then =((( 10:22

My heart dropped to the ground. Last night I was getting drunk with Tyler, we managed to sneak snacks and beer into the dormitory without getting caught so we drank with one other guy next door. It was fun but it would be a lot better if I have accepted Mathews's invitation, and I'm sure Tyler would be having fun too. Ugh, this is bad this is bad, how do I fix this?! I tried of something convincing enough to reply to him

Me: Dude? Bud?

Mattie Cutie: oh hey, youre awake, early. hows sleep? how was last night?

Me: Uh yeah, i slept well... i'm sorry i didn't come to the party, i'm really really am.

Mattie Cutie: nah np

Me: Dude, i'm sorry, really.

Mattie Cutie: yeah whatever i know. its nothing big. i didnt go anyway

Me: Wait what why?

Mattie Cutie: i gotta go, talk to you after school

I stood there with the worries that he was mad at me in my head. This is bad, my crush is mad at me, what do I do now???

I took a shower, had breakfast and returned to my room. I sat on my bed not knowing what to do. I didn't have classes today so there was really nothing to do except for one last part of the homework. I decided to do it. 10:00 a.m. my clock showed. I sat down and started getting lost in the world of knowledge.

*2 hours later*

I was finally done with the homework and decided to grab something for lunch. Probably just a sandwich. I paid for lunch, sat down and ate. I looked across the room and found Rachel. We have met before while studying green engineering. She sat alone with only a cup in her hands. I wasn't fine looking at her being down like that so me, my tuna sandwich and cup coffee went over and sat in front of her. She raised her head up and looked at me in surprise. I smiled at her "Don't mind if I sit here" "No, go ahead". I sat down and started biting on my sandwich with my eyes still on her curiously. She seemed stress. "So, how's zoology?" "Good I'd say" "Tell me the truth, eyes don't lie" I said flatly with my eyes deep into hers telling me to let it out. She can't bear it all to herself if she knows that she's not okay. A tear rolled down her face but I caught it just in time. I walked over and sat next to her "Everything's going to be alright, everything's going to be just right" "How do you know? Everything's crashing down, EVERYTHING" she cried on my shoulder as I pulled her closer into my embrace. I patted her back and just sat there until everything settle down. We seemed to catch some eyes but I couldn't care less.
