Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.755Please respect copyright.PENANAMdLaxSUPv1
755Please respect copyright.PENANABuby11aIbm
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANAyqTEr4xIOS
755Please respect copyright.PENANAK21k2AlXLY
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANAfDtHWyGxIS
755Please respect copyright.PENANAy8WbzwnGkK
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.755Please respect copyright.PENANAoZ1BsSFTL3
755Please respect copyright.PENANARSWPk5GEwt
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANACUaM5if6vK
755Please respect copyright.PENANA2LLR8HFpCb
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANA5WcmL0xbzF
755Please respect copyright.PENANAFbJlofiyqO
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANAdbfofvmDXA
755Please respect copyright.PENANAILHd4dt5Zu
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"755Please respect copyright.PENANAAvT6mjADph
755Please respect copyright.PENANAksvZlBefxY
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."755Please respect copyright.PENANAnft9Fhgj3h
755Please respect copyright.PENANAmGSlhRAQsF
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."755Please respect copyright.PENANAZnWjAWaR0l
755Please respect copyright.PENANAnhbcWr5J36
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.755Please respect copyright.PENANAWiuMvc9wjI
755Please respect copyright.PENANA7XalJi0mXa
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.755Please respect copyright.PENANA9KYsdZgEze
755Please respect copyright.PENANAdWPXot7aKU
"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.755Please respect copyright.PENANA0dRHzyHHbe
755Please respect copyright.PENANA4hhV1rpg4Q
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?"755Please respect copyright.PENANAegQldb35i5
755Please respect copyright.PENANAu0S6S5xvz3
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANApCt4TAEul7
755Please respect copyright.PENANAaG5h4wp8mo
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.755Please respect copyright.PENANAERvxqW2Hej
755Please respect copyright.PENANA2X6kIQsGq4
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.755Please respect copyright.PENANAkOjFz6Xyke
755Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ72qOI0Vp
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.755Please respect copyright.PENANAz53mXTw8L8
755Please respect copyright.PENANAq0asNBQ6tw
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"755Please respect copyright.PENANAHFEZDm4DXx
755Please respect copyright.PENANANfhmr6qLlc
"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.755Please respect copyright.PENANAMYPsqRsqZY
755Please respect copyright.PENANAZlMlh8YxPD
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?755Please respect copyright.PENANAKN23NhUvrx
755Please respect copyright.PENANAdUmhzlSnQd
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.755Please respect copyright.PENANAn7bTRJpRWC
755Please respect copyright.PENANAbP862JRupk
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..."755Please respect copyright.PENANAw7NCxpczrQ
755Please respect copyright.PENANAKVpmMoHxKk
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.755Please respect copyright.PENANARDVSj6X1cp
755Please respect copyright.PENANA0YUbiyXNgf
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."755Please respect copyright.PENANAzgWgUMxi3D
755Please respect copyright.PENANAe0YjqtxmGU
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.755Please respect copyright.PENANAZdlnamNGIx
755Please respect copyright.PENANAB7Lf31C7qt
"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.755Please respect copyright.PENANA6V2Kw4dWve
755Please respect copyright.PENANAwCv55m7CT0
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"755Please respect copyright.PENANAZLfIwF4BQ3
755Please respect copyright.PENANAfUhBo2rooC
"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.755Please respect copyright.PENANACXBFjeRAgH
755Please respect copyright.PENANAxMtisXxpaQ
"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.755Please respect copyright.PENANAqU7DeUCSZU
755Please respect copyright.PENANAS7ixkzh5Jk
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.755Please respect copyright.PENANAqEV5HEQj1r
755Please respect copyright.PENANAcMyQsu1Uui
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."755Please respect copyright.PENANAIqXb5uznbJ
755Please respect copyright.PENANAzEBlh7hJ2j
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.755Please respect copyright.PENANATj4NQgKz7T
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.755Please respect copyright.PENANAjxvUYqzqwf
755Please respect copyright.PENANADTGF4VcYai
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.755Please respect copyright.PENANAzbNyxUG1Wv
755Please respect copyright.PENANAzZX4K2hhSv
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
