Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.918Please respect copyright.PENANAzcjDx4BNaw
918Please respect copyright.PENANAXK6HlSudUz
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAbEMReGtyxw
918Please respect copyright.PENANAxjNPwL2AZe
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANACBQv0eVsMs
918Please respect copyright.PENANAjC954x778b
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.918Please respect copyright.PENANAyyXZD8Tkxd
918Please respect copyright.PENANADMwdQG5nYW
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAWf7qVp0PCX
918Please respect copyright.PENANAO6bovYabYX
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAnDJfaD9OMz
918Please respect copyright.PENANAS8b5oCtUna
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANA3CHspieQPm
918Please respect copyright.PENANA4B4Ioe6Pat
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"918Please respect copyright.PENANAqI5TYWKii7
918Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2TkhAFmv9
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."918Please respect copyright.PENANA60lL1K9tAX
918Please respect copyright.PENANASQySW0t8xt
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."918Please respect copyright.PENANARi8eTMhnhS
918Please respect copyright.PENANAyhQH0qiNaE
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.918Please respect copyright.PENANAbMdqHoT0fC
918Please respect copyright.PENANAEim70HboqW
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.918Please respect copyright.PENANABFPeMDq3TM
918Please respect copyright.PENANA7BXJKwub25
"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.918Please respect copyright.PENANANFL6wrWhEZ
918Please respect copyright.PENANA2Wg9l4tClO
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?"918Please respect copyright.PENANAvnZbezgFSg
918Please respect copyright.PENANA8IOvTlLd9X
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAWpbai4elZI
918Please respect copyright.PENANAMqo1KjVUvG
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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAZrMIDHnP2F
918Please respect copyright.PENANAx8R6aY2Dr5
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.918Please respect copyright.PENANArllN0V13V3
918Please respect copyright.PENANAAhNHGfwfMq
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.918Please respect copyright.PENANAcRuCB3AalH
918Please respect copyright.PENANACsqh5tgsv9
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"918Please respect copyright.PENANAdEfHBjmJSq
918Please respect copyright.PENANAOsdZdZp2JF
"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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAfCw0s7VICR
918Please respect copyright.PENANAx1GY3I41oo
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?918Please respect copyright.PENANAbbO87WXr7U
918Please respect copyright.PENANARrvhjcRWIh
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.918Please respect copyright.PENANAFzKFnL77XF
918Please respect copyright.PENANAEYm8k0ac3y
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..."918Please respect copyright.PENANAQnBZ5u81mL
918Please respect copyright.PENANARBMqWLjg7J
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.918Please respect copyright.PENANA7yaO1MLqb6
918Please respect copyright.PENANA54uIW6f1N4
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."918Please respect copyright.PENANApSCar4Coo3
918Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZBM0NhvMs
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.918Please respect copyright.PENANAkkyFzI5Hbs
918Please respect copyright.PENANAIEnNQ6DEq2
"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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAIOODo7pPuP
918Please respect copyright.PENANA5qXyMFBoUZ
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"918Please respect copyright.PENANARjfX36LJld
918Please respect copyright.PENANA4s4dthTzav
"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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAx1OlYB4apW
918Please respect copyright.PENANABa9TtFkkYe
"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.918Please respect copyright.PENANAmabb9bBCpg
918Please respect copyright.PENANAlk9aV3tyiQ
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.918Please respect copyright.PENANAMxLkKiv7jc
918Please respect copyright.PENANAZzV9752yD7
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."918Please respect copyright.PENANAxeLO8uPQSv
918Please respect copyright.PENANAg0EiO24kZ7
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.918Please respect copyright.PENANA61ERqKQZqO
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.918Please respect copyright.PENANABJ9GnskVii
918Please respect copyright.PENANAjeVVUwceJz
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.918Please respect copyright.PENANAbZd1a1J09f
918Please respect copyright.PENANAAdaJrLqBcA
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
