Solangelo meet: Alex Riding

Alex Riding 

MIST

Pierce the Veil plays through my headphones as I walk to school and bob my head up and down in time with the music. My black hair flopping over my head and covering my eyes so the only thing I could see was purple -- the rich colour of the end of my hair -- that I dyed one day when I was bored

A few minutes later I found myself on the front steps to the school building and I keep my head up high not letting people see how much their whispers and stairs actually hurt me as I walk into school and keep the bored look on my

Suddenly my salvation calls out "Alexa"

I scowl at the name because even though it is my birth name I don't use it preferring to be called 'Alex' and he knows that he just like to piss me off but in this hellhole he is my only friend and slight crush because of what we are — outcasts — just because we decide to wear black and listen to so called emo music

"Nicholas" I mock as I stand on the stairs and he glares at me and I felt cold all over he has that effect on things and that's why most people don't go near him because he seems to radiate this darkness that draws everyone away, but for some reason what drew everyone out attracted me and over time I got closer to Nico and we became the only family the other has

"That's not my name" Nico huffs his dark eyes growing darker

"I know but it annoys you so thats why I call you it" I smirk pulling the earphones out of my ears "You ready to face another day of hell?" Nico freezes up slightly at my mention of hell and his eyes grow even more darker and I swear around us got darker as well but as I blink and was about to ask what was the matter, my brain became foggy and when my brain stopped being foggy I felt everything was fine. Nico was fine his eyes were back to the normal black colour and so was I and we were just having a normal conversation

Before the only sane person in the hellhole could reply back with a witty comment like I knew my sassy friend would something else diverted our attention a girl that looks a little too fake like a plastic barbie doll with a high pitch squeal as she talked to another plastic doll beside her "OMG! DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE NEW BOY COMING INTO SCHOOL TODAY!? DADDY SHOWED ME A PHOTO OF HIM AND HE'S SO HOT WITH THE WHOLE SURFER LOOK GOING ON WHEN HE SEES ME HE IS GOING TO WANT ME"

I roll my eyes at Cat's words, she is what I like to describe as the Queen Bitch of the school she thinks became she has money and her mother is a famous model while her dad works on the school board (meaning she can do basically anything and never get into trouble for it) and because her precious daddy works on the school board she is the first to know of any new arrivals and has already labelled them to a group before she has even met the person and it sounds like this poor boy is just going to be another one of her targets

I see Nico in the corner of my eye smile a little at Cat's words and I feel like my world is caving in simply because Nico smiles and he seems to only have one emotion and that is anger I know he doesn't much like I don't thats just how we present ourselves to the world because it is easier than forcing ourselves to deal with pain but just as I'm about to ask the usual ball of rage what he was smiling at the bell goes for the start of prison

It was half way through whatever period it is now and I was busy trying to draw an intricate eye and listening to ACDC blasting through my earphones  and not listening to what the teacher is saying when the door opened and I heard a high pitch squeal from the front of the room splitting through my music

I huff annoyed that my concentration had been interrupted and roughly pulled out my earphones before looking up, my eyes pinned into s glare on the back of Cat's dark curly hair before my gaze slides over to where everyone in the class was looking except one person who currently had his head resting on the table only to see the uncomfortable look on a blonde headed boys face at the whole class of thirty people were looking at him and I knew right then and there that he would become another one of Cat's target, I couldn't see Cat's face but I was sure she had a grin on her face to rival the Chesire cat

"Hi I'm Will Solance I'm new to the school" He states awkwardly

"Very well," The teacher dismissed  his eyes gazed over the classroom before they landed on the dark haired boy taking a nap "Please take a seat next to Mr DiAngelo, Mr DiAngelo please wake up and pay attention" She snapped at Nico which jolted him awake in his chair and made his dark eyes go wide and dart around the room until they landed at the front of the room locked on something or someone -- the new boy Will

Will smiles brightly and walk over to straight over to Nico (who is sat a row behind me), confusing everyone in the room because Will just happens to know who 'Mr DiAngelo' but everyone is more. confused at the fact that Nico didn't do anything to the new boy and just sat back in his. chair letting a small grin on to his usually stoic face 

"Your late Sunny boy" He grumbled but there was amusement in his tone

"Awe sorry Neeks got held up at Camp"

Everyone was now beyond confused., Nico never normally talked more than a few words and to see the olive skinned boy grin was totally mind blowing and what made everyone go silent and draw drops were when Nico leaned over to Will and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before pulling back and flushing pink when he realised everyone was staring "Your forgiven" He drawled 

And then all hell broke loose 

"What was that?"  Cat screeched standing up and glaring at Nico

"I was saying hello to my boyfriend" Nico glared back crossing his arms over his chest in a defensive manner and draws dropped even further before some random jock called out an offensive term that Nico didn't take lightly to standing up and glaring at the jock only to be held back by Will who grabbed his forearms and held him back. Meanwhile I was trying. to process that my crush was gay.
