Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiow1ZeTLsu
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJlhIRn4hD
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY3I1sL9gt
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡespAqCZkLX
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnXCxhKJ4I
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSb8HcVneU
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FDU7a1Vb4
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IIbYEYd8d
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XaVPX0u0L
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oeJsuHsGJ
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsqvls8xj0
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiioB8xQc84
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhHJNeC2jX
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fh08hilGp
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9ZNIW8NYZ
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ78eivHCb
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."960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRFZE2LEaR
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnzOdSY2HE
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSv1KGePqM
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡST807LUqJn
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq2SPYtvWT
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iqC6vF5LW
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb3fdHvtaY
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorOKfYNjZq
"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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG73QGWKU3r
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadiLlnF6D3
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?"960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9IU3OgVUi
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9IYFzBJhr
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJxGwsT2gv
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJsPDHfIon
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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVowD6wOmb
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerdoaUtYlj
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7WJwyzjkn
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9hWLn9TQT
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb11Cvn5VtF
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63R7j0r1GK
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUBNcm5FqV
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDtZNnT6E8
"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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvceQ10o5vZ
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAWcMdBDiv
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57unL1V5mJ
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTptzea3wv
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWftLHphy2E
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqZzjWrwrN
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..."960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bIwskaEBb
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdejgHVwUBD
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMZ2L14LiQ
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSnCj7YNqn
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."960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPx83yKIGn
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pe7jQf5NN
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoeN5TOG4g
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnXQyp7IkX
"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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGlo225KXJ
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6Sp0Y9TT3
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fz4jRsePJ
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7g8mg4RzV
"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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL65AsTdXhh
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3TPn70tTs
"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.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yuAmNRGIX
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpDJfpsH5M
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqgnhrsUx1
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVukdrzTZ8b
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."960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc5fRVzdJV
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoLZnKcycJ
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG4Z1ugRIA
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmG0WHNgNjA
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLNGbQwAU5
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdl0006emF
960Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tOqZt2n43
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
