Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgLrCnWpKZ
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTqSaCLePt
He sighed, pulling at his hoodie a bit to cover his face more, and he looked down at his blue, worn sneakers through blurry eyes.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡed33oqaRNq
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ918q4rB4La
At this hour, it was safe to say most of the city was asleep, but he was wide awake. Mentally tired, but he was wide awake. He didn't feel sleepy at all, and he wouldn't dare close his eyes right now.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68hXptciid
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlP7Uf8phT
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuvESAxXpK
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmwTTbEozN
The teen held back a sob, rubbing his arm against his face to get rid of the tears. He just wanted to forget right now. It'd be good for his anxiety to just pretend he lived a different life for now.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKKZbRs0ht
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLV9QYHQUZ
Then he quickly rushed into a small, run-down restaurant that stayed open even at night. Of course, the place was very empty, save a woman behind the counter and a young man at one of the few tables.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLRmuSoAEp
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJghzU1Cjk
The teen sighed again, feeling a bit better in the warm room instead of the crippling cold air that somehow made him feel even more numb then he already was. He walked over to one of the tables--the one near the other teen--collapsing in it and pulling his hoodie back, revealing his black shaggy hair.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrIVtGYrUr
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IIG8sT4vO
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ992Fwy4MYh
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJIBPZZvZq
The teen thought about it for a moment. He didn't feel like eating. And he didn't have much money on him. "Hot tea."970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAQa4cP8ns
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswRU7R1b8D
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXgeuLjBB8
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiN5CYvnW1
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyihYQ6ryse
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8JI2p6ORK
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpufLlokGxz
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvQzkh5lQi
"I can say the same. And anyways, haven't you ever heard that you shouldn't talk to strangers?" The teen snapped again, this time glaring at the light brown, messy haired boy.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx04szF8oD
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NVbiyeOJ8
The second boy laughed a little. "Well, when you can't even trust your family to not hurt you, does it even matter then? Plus, think about it, how would anyone make friends if they didn't talk to strangers?"970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimYFCow2XP
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnW7qQe1ut
The black haired boy stared at him curiously, though didn't say anything, and the other boy didn't say anything else since the waitress walked back over, placing a mug of hot tea in front the black haired teen.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpQSGqtI3L
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwxaynJhnF
Though once she left, the brown haired boy stood up with his plate of some sort of cake with white frosting on it, walking over to the black haired boys table, sitting down.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcbulZ9obD
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6wbrXeu83
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIFScEehjc
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sOuLfUBTT
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpWCBvHuvI
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2akCT1n3Ar
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxvZ3PIK2I
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGcfPWVzmo
"Sure thing." The woman told him, grabbing up a small clean dish and walking over to the table, setting it down, and the brown haired boy transferred one of the pieces of the cake to the other plate, sliding it over to the other teen. "Relax, Stranger, I just ordered this cake, so its not like I had enough time to poison it." The second teen joked, glancing at the boy across him.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt54JLA3LpL
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSHEEDFUzL
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69KgDbthtL
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBKMrGGI43
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNqGByOWjk
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYsyl4yhFM
The black haired teen grabbed up a spoon that was on the napkin beside his mug, before bringing it over to his cake to cut a small bit off to start with. "Thank you..."970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOMVhQ4ZzS
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm72S6Inygt
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx6a9rHMU8
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0HkeBiW9f
The black haired boy glanced down into his mug, looking at his reflection, and when he didn't answer the teen, the guy shifted, sighing slightly. "I mean, we're strangers, bound to never meet again, and we both have our problems, so we might as well get it off our chests, since I'm sure you have no one to talk to, and I don't either."970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DCZsnBqeA
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLk6HZsyHY
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX49JH1Hm9j
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqdRVggHXn
"My parents are both really strict and are complete jerks who don't understand me, and yell at me and get on to me about every little thing, and I'm tired of it. I don't have any friends, save my boyfriend who just slapped me and yelled at me before breaking up." He explained snappily, and he could feel the tears welling up in his eyes again.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bgMAK8H69
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlYH0Eqt1S
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirwKvZFs7F
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hS4vFdTkh
"Yeah...and honestly, they barely accepted me for it." The black haired teen muttered, taking another bite of his cake...it tasted like chocolate and it was so amazing. It basically melted in his mouth too. And the hot tea went well with it.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNohuI4zC2
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDYcpBX44d
"Well, at least they kinda accepted you." The brown haired teen told him with a gentle smile, standing up and pulling some money out of his pocket and laying it down on the table before starting to walk out of the building.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwEVMInnDr
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2pjeUrEtS
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KMHuREw8Z
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UzDljFCad
Then the other teen smiled at him. "Oh, I ran away. My parents couldn't accept me, and I was constantly being used by other boys. Nice talking to you, Stranger."970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12KASTprPG
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJXL0ddujF
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVyBzDKQ3M
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDntrUaJUSx
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLlu70zC0j
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpJq5bpOH4
970Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4i8oCOgE8
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
