Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.996Please respect copyright.PENANAjeoz46N4lD
996Please respect copyright.PENANAjd9JXwuOTM
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANALAc1QiQKDm
996Please respect copyright.PENANAWl7ztO3AzA
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAgODBLCU1R1
996Please respect copyright.PENANAKTenmu0Dny
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.996Please respect copyright.PENANAyajHS2PBxJ
996Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7PPdLPdKE
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAg4vEIS8zJn
996Please respect copyright.PENANAMb8b771QH3
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAJtzp89J4Sz
996Please respect copyright.PENANA76kuQ4acLw
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAh117a1wnLj
996Please respect copyright.PENANAhm64Og5YKt
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"996Please respect copyright.PENANAiN4KK3NwoU
996Please respect copyright.PENANAzKDwMUAM9P
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."996Please respect copyright.PENANAFZNUymo1IX
996Please respect copyright.PENANAaIWSGVSVoC
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."996Please respect copyright.PENANAfCNCAym2cQ
996Please respect copyright.PENANAV7ihRNFbyP
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.996Please respect copyright.PENANAB6WnAHGdRm
996Please respect copyright.PENANALXrOaBK2x5
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.996Please respect copyright.PENANAu7ZqaTBCkR
996Please respect copyright.PENANAQGnzKpFvuu
"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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAY18JjzJ2D3
996Please respect copyright.PENANAAnXg0B8pI3
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?"996Please respect copyright.PENANAcnDIdhEdSF
996Please respect copyright.PENANAyT5mAopHq0
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAUhC7N3MBbQ
996Please respect copyright.PENANAQlTliNZBgD
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.996Please respect copyright.PENANALwaz0TuFLD
996Please respect copyright.PENANAaLBoD5hCX3
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.996Please respect copyright.PENANAsjynnBADne
996Please respect copyright.PENANActVAnDIdQL
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.996Please respect copyright.PENANAJes5pgAsUD
996Please respect copyright.PENANAu5add1Vb6R
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"996Please respect copyright.PENANA8ttBaQtxjk
996Please respect copyright.PENANAemOmZE22jT
"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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAEtQFcZirkU
996Please respect copyright.PENANATvYHCv8ag6
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?996Please respect copyright.PENANAi42tmtpgWu
996Please respect copyright.PENANAHca2U6OQvu
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.996Please respect copyright.PENANArS2jOytoLO
996Please respect copyright.PENANAG0ercJ6HEU
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..."996Please respect copyright.PENANAjg2u2NLhjf
996Please respect copyright.PENANAEfYXtiHXOg
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.996Please respect copyright.PENANA3QTX91lXyH
996Please respect copyright.PENANAsoYOCHGvn6
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."996Please respect copyright.PENANAToQ9z8N0VT
996Please respect copyright.PENANAHYKH0EZXmW
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.996Please respect copyright.PENANABknVhOOwzW
996Please respect copyright.PENANAw5U1aBAkq1
"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.996Please respect copyright.PENANA3GwW4jg48o
996Please respect copyright.PENANAzQT59BoQVu
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"996Please respect copyright.PENANAPR9NPiSsgU
996Please respect copyright.PENANAlgV3abY8sR
"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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAVzFBxlWGWG
996Please respect copyright.PENANAwJUehK9tgC
"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.996Please respect copyright.PENANAZeCv3dxPPA
996Please respect copyright.PENANAtMdMge2OxQ
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.996Please respect copyright.PENANAcxdMQyeqjU
996Please respect copyright.PENANArDWDxRXLHr
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."996Please respect copyright.PENANAjjltsN73SO
996Please respect copyright.PENANArJ0uKma98D
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.996Please respect copyright.PENANAMGAUG73Lcc
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.996Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ihw2LI25J
996Please respect copyright.PENANAwBlPuvuvJS
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.996Please respect copyright.PENANAzF0dtU74Uy
996Please respect copyright.PENANAAZVvTPoO3M
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
