[The Last Day of School Before Holidays.]The whole classroom was blooming with a cacophony of whispers, giggles and guffaws. Every corner was set up by the gentle beams of the sun as buzzing murmurs danced across the whole room. Everyone was impatiently waiting for the last, special bell to ring — after it, everything came to an end but not for good. The bell ringing would mean that the school hours were ending but only for a few weeks and a month. There, David and Travis were finally happy that neither of them was sitting too far from the other, that is what David was thinking at the moment. As for Travis, he was ecstatic, remembering a second he opened his mouth to tell his grandmother about his progress — about his school results. The old woman who was seemingly holding her breath, waiting for the news from Travis finally released a deep, loud breath when her grandson aired, at last. She quickly got up from her chair and rushed towards Travis and without warning, enveloped her i
[Kiss Me Harder, I Won't Run, I Promise!]The whole building was overwhelmed by blue and red piercing lights that luminously swam in the atmosphere, mischievously travelling across the whole place whilst rudely exposing people who tried to hide their evil deeds — a few of them, of course not many liked how the light approached them. Loud, deep house music vibrantly and unceremoniously punctured into the ear chambers of those inside who were lost in the rhythms of each beat. Everyone had to shout their lungs out whenever they spoke to their companions. One would see that as an unhealthy thing to even look at or want to experience, however, that did not matter to the people in the luxurious club. It wasn't very hard for Travis and David to find the group. As Kevin had mentioned in their chat group, the rest of the group was sitting at the furthest table, away from the many eyes of people. “You are ten minutes late! What took you so long?” Upon landing her eyes on the tall figure of Tr
[In The Middle Of The Night!] “Should I tell them, David?” Kevin hissed, a treacherous smile stuck on his face whilst his eyes slyly observed as David silently struggled with his words. The boy could feel everyone's heavy eyes placed on his figure — his shoulders had suddenly become heavy and he could not breathe. For some reason, Travis's eyes carefully pasted themselves on Kevin and glided on the smallest parts of his figure. “Too many secrets, I wonder if you are a cheetah!” Travis spoke to himself as he took a deep breath into his system. “I'm sorry, Travis!” David whispered under his breath just when he had cleared his throat. “Oh well, it seems like he is shy!” Kevin chuckled. “Guys, I will tell you who this is!” Kevin spat and huffed. “This is David's…!”“I'm David's brother, nice to meet all of you!” Kevin quickly blurted, a smile mischievously stuck across his face while his eyes followed David's movements as he flinched with surprise. The boy had already closed his eyes
“You are not going anywhere tonight! I won't let you run away again!” Sean who was grinning whilst his eyes were glistening with glee, spoke as he carefully took careful, menacing steps towards David. David — he frowned, definitely not because he was afraid, but of course, confused. “What do you…want, Sean?” The boy huffed soon when folding his arms across his chest that was leisurely heaving. Right there, Sean threw out a soft yet slightly rumbling chuckle that echoed evilly throughout the room before making a mischievous float in David's ears. “No, David. That question belongs to me! I should be the one to ask you that very question: What do you want?” Sean hissed while his face was being enveloped by a smirk that sent chills all over David's system. “I mean, instead of spending the night with Travis, you're here after you made it clear that you don't want to see me again. Or is it that you miss “us” too much? What? You just can't handle it yourself? The truth does bites but at le
The door opened with a thunderous bang and there was a breathy David whose whole features were covered with tiny, glistening beads of sweat — some lazily flowing down on the nape of his neck. His red cheeks were slowly starting to become pale whilst on the other side, his hands trembled as if they had just come out of ice cold water. With legs that were so numb and unwilling to obey all the orders of his mind, David shuffled towards the first basin that his bloodshot eyes landed upon soon when he threw himself in the bathroom.“No! No! No!” The boy growled and released a cry filled with pity. He cupped water with his quivering hands and without ever thinking, splashed it on his sweating face. Right there, he felt cold air as it was biting into his lungs and in that brief moment, he realised that his breathing was uneven — he could not breathe. His lips quickly became black and blue just when he closed his eyes and the only thing he saw was Sean's tattooed, naked body. “Damn you!” Da
{AFTER AND BEFORE HOURS}“Be careful!” Travis, whose face was pale, aired a rumbling warning through his clenched teeth as he was helping David out of the taxi. David, who could barely stand on his feet, vigorously nodded his head, a shaky smile across his red features. He had almost lost his step but fortunately, Travis held him tight. A hiccup came between his lazy laughter as he was dragged towards a gigantic building. Travis closed his eyes for a brief moment and then shifted his hands from David's shoulder to his tiny waist and gently kept him close to himself. “Is this where you live?” As soon as his eyes landed on a terribly tall and hideous building, Travis released a question through his slightly trembling lips. A frown deepened across his forehead and for obvious reasons, his heart unintentionally missed its rhythm. What a strange sight! Travis’s eyes followed the shadows as they were ominously dancing around, while some shyly hid behind the huge trunks of the trees. The s
BEAT — A heart beats wildly against a shaking wall of ribs and there, air is temporarily cut off. Eyes glisten with innocence as they search for stars into the eyes of another. The world had stopped and there wasn't a single sound but their hearts jingling against their chests. “Look at me…!” He said quietly, his eyebrows trembling. David slowly snaked out of the bed and limped in front of Travis whose chest was heaving with anxiety. His hands were already clenched into fists while he followed every awkward movement that David made and the dangling smile on his face. “Please…don't go, Travis!” David spoke in a whisper soon after placing his hands on Travis's wrists. He took another step closer to Travis and bit his lip while examining his nervous expression. “Will you leave me…Travis?” David asked once again, this time slowly moving his hands on Travis's chest and they stopped to curl around his neck. At that point, Travis's heart had missed a beat or two but that did not seem to b
MEMORIES: BITTER AND SWEET! "Only six years…that's what we agreed on! Six years! Or were they too much for you to handle?" A husky, booming voice that, belonging to Travis reverberated across the spacious room with a query that sent chills to paste themselves onto the figure of a man who was standing five minutes away from him. "You failed to keep your promise…!" Travis blurted with a voice that was cracking up with emotions. He aired the words with great difficulty whilst his dewy eyes carefully watched the face of the man in front of him harden with coldness. "What did I do to receive this kind of treatment from you? Does it not matter how long I waited?" Travis questioned in a brittle voice as soon as he took timid steps towards the man's direction— a man who did not dare to soften his face, rather he put on a face that lacked emotions and warmness. Slowly but surely, the man turned his features, together with his figure away from the saddened Travis that was already weeping.
