Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpreLXI57eU
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62UlSjEPzH
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWRXhT8Rng
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSZkHKIRzn
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNajRTXZv5
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52PvZdNrqZ
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAtn0h4GV4
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLlr0HAmRf
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKLKMeG1er
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhorCuDxfU3
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY474FWzXKH
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpHfeKDjyg
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtJA54t970
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopIcfeMW6Y
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSPK5pWmew
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGbxEm8ZnT
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."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51b7IDCRtZ
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlopWD4ewVB
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA0ujB06Mr
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrc0OAp1Sv
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gfGkIRFff
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J9CI5rsQ4
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOlvL4ZLq4
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpBblWHUAV
"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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXqgilySAo
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P1LDjkLN6
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?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBSBv7L3Hy
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrqgqhrFs7
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvLjKiGfxK
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBTzRmiysG
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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP1w8LjvDI
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6GQReYznm
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPLdehcaBK
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArIpbaq0B9
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsU2rjWRydq
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75dxaE79Ae
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKwlw2bTZZ
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuZtGkhvzS
"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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6a0vjlwNV8
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWCUp0oC8Y
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweubLNZJRr
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgvYSjZMza
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpurciSus4
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDMlKlx4sJ
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..."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQlHmzsjoH
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerHNIvOpcb
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNZnNcY8OM
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkLDmCHxYM
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."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z6WfWWla5
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliMCNYPwvX
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG05vRKEU2
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQagvQ1Dtg
"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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrN3BF4LS0E
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItayKhUJtD
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRzl5kDOhO
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZNydXujBt
"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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6UN96r2qg
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNf0UlJBh0
"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.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5gqe8vWXa
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJQtX6wgMm
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJzeKbGusV
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTFgJ6Ajyf
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."1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53fL8tWcXD
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHiOcsuEfQ
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN3Txeloli
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAo7OEujpV
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Qzma3vXBL
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlIzXH7aDe
1005Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAreAcsXQ1
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
