Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.919Please respect copyright.PENANAUyoC4W2Lzs
919Please respect copyright.PENANA4ztyqtyzx3
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANATLi7JkPuOD
919Please respect copyright.PENANAtjLg3Asnrx
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAY4u1iIt1EY
919Please respect copyright.PENANAwWakMFiHYK
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.919Please respect copyright.PENANAUgQIeSXsYt
919Please respect copyright.PENANAEx8c59Soy2
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAtIIjWtNKJh
919Please respect copyright.PENANAHgC1Br8FoD
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANA9f9PlFAcZT
919Please respect copyright.PENANAGeHgJvSyNt
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAy7tWzpcGr2
919Please respect copyright.PENANAknHQWTA5ZQ
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"919Please respect copyright.PENANA9Tf1EnHbjx
919Please respect copyright.PENANAn0MMX2KPEd
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."919Please respect copyright.PENANAovlltBluuk
919Please respect copyright.PENANA7js2FSXDLF
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."919Please respect copyright.PENANAoeTawkBVQe
919Please respect copyright.PENANAtdwCL4AA1P
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.919Please respect copyright.PENANAyj3Hy2qYME
919Please respect copyright.PENANAqDMyJ31B0Y
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.919Please respect copyright.PENANAagqLRtlIL0
919Please respect copyright.PENANAd4HtiwNJsi
"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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAcPsgHNwucV
919Please respect copyright.PENANAjIxUR5WdB0
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?"919Please respect copyright.PENANA9y7xAulZ7y
919Please respect copyright.PENANA7qSUlUrWGz
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANALrsFTB0dOs
919Please respect copyright.PENANAb8TMBeZ1ls
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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAR8qGvNasda
919Please respect copyright.PENANAoSzGDUoukw
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.919Please respect copyright.PENANAOqj3KlkNbW
919Please respect copyright.PENANAtEyvzOgnBG
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.919Please respect copyright.PENANAm0aY867VUv
919Please respect copyright.PENANAwVxFWKNybb
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"919Please respect copyright.PENANAKYs4vaGPu3
919Please respect copyright.PENANAad9omPRa7v
"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.919Please respect copyright.PENANACmUh3x5fpl
919Please respect copyright.PENANAhiIntzh1ce
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?919Please respect copyright.PENANArNV4h12E0b
919Please respect copyright.PENANAma6jq9xbQl
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.919Please respect copyright.PENANAUq8b8AYDnl
919Please respect copyright.PENANAlmko1NZDTw
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..."919Please respect copyright.PENANARe2GiyI4i3
919Please respect copyright.PENANAhcJGDwZZAb
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.919Please respect copyright.PENANA1fU3bT4SJC
919Please respect copyright.PENANAOzadaDGAjh
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."919Please respect copyright.PENANAgV2bpIgywA
919Please respect copyright.PENANAT4w163p4Fs
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.919Please respect copyright.PENANA4z21begFuN
919Please respect copyright.PENANA3RlOHLtR0b
"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.919Please respect copyright.PENANACVHrzISthL
919Please respect copyright.PENANAVAwQNsdkJT
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"919Please respect copyright.PENANARWrlUsNPa3
919Please respect copyright.PENANAHNLeLsM7nX
"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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAjYI5vpVbaf
919Please respect copyright.PENANArnLeyqYKYP
"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.919Please respect copyright.PENANAt1exZyJkot
919Please respect copyright.PENANAnH3oC89RtN
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.919Please respect copyright.PENANAytkF7UDyeQ
919Please respect copyright.PENANADJXmtZmSCH
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."919Please respect copyright.PENANAx1lclUUfJz
919Please respect copyright.PENANARZ2Kn73hGt
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.919Please respect copyright.PENANAkXRhOXMuy8
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.919Please respect copyright.PENANAbojvyJSGX2
919Please respect copyright.PENANAa8EbFWMU3a
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.919Please respect copyright.PENANAHO6sbXNwYN
919Please respect copyright.PENANAKHblx16QXv
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
