Chapter Two: The conversation

|| Goth's P.O.V ||

It's now 3:00 PM, and school over. Now I have to meet Palette in the court.

I sighed and starting making my way there. As I got closer to the court, I heard arguing. I made out the voices, it was Palette and Selena. I decided to watch them from afar.

"Why are you still here?! You said that we go would to In-N-Out after school today!!" Selena yelled. "Well, I want to talk to a freind!" I'm still his friend? "Not everything is about you, Jayden!" Selena looked offended. "I thought I told you not to use my real name!!"

Huh, Jayden is her real name. Time to call her that from now on.

"Why?! Huh?!"
"I told you!! I don't like the name Jayden!!"
"Leave! My friend will be coming soon!"
"No! I'm staying and watching you two!" 

Palette pushed her, and she almost fell.

"Ohf! Excuse me, Pal-"
"You are excused."
"What the fuck Palette! You're lucky I'm giving you so many chances on our relationship! You've been acting like this since last year!"
"Whatever!-" Palette saw me. Luckily I was in position as if I just walked in.

"Goth!" He jogged over to me and hugged me. "Wh-What are you doing Palette?" I whisper, while I felt the heat rush to my cheekbones. "Making Jayden go away." He whispered back. "Who-" "I'll tell you later. Just hug me back."

I hesitated before doing so. My arms shakily went around Palette's torso. "AHG! Fine! I'm leaving! But you owe me a date, Palette!"

"Is she gone?" Palette asked quietly. I nodded. He let go, and looked at me confused. It must have been that my face looked like a grape. "Why are you blushi-" "UM. AIN't this about you? Al-Also, why did you call Selena, Jayden?" Playing dumb, so Palette wouldn't expect that I eavesdropped on their conversation.

"Jayden, is Selena. It's her real name. Now for the reason I wanted to talk to you here." "Hm?" "I'm sorry... About the thing three years ago... I shoulda stayed in contact with you... And hung out with you more..." I don't know why, but I felt so relieved that he said sorry. Like a weight had been lifted off me. I hugged him, again.

He had flinched and hugged me back.

I let go, and asked, "I heard yelling on my way here, was that you and Sel-, I mean, Jayden? If so... What were you talking about?" Palette stayed silent. "I-I-I'm so-sorry! If yo-you don't wan-wanna talk ab-about it you do-don't ha-"

"I want to break up with Jayden."

Those words made me so happy. I could have a chance with Palette! But... He's straight.... My heart broke as soon it was repaired.

"Why..?" "She's been treating me like trash since last year. She always wants, and forces, me to pay for everything she wants. Food. School supplies. Stuffed animals. Etcetera. She's also using me, for my so called popularity. I found her kissing, and making out with a boy, named Jlan, a friend of mine. It hurt, at the time. I'm over it. It was last year."

"Wow, a lot of things happened last year." "Yep, I've giving her signs that I want to break up with her. She's just been giving me these chances. I'm just gunna straight up break up with her tomorrow." I need to ask this question here and now. 

"Hey, just a random question. You told me that you were straight three years ago. Has your sexuality changed since then?" "That reminds me! You never told you sexuality!" Oh shit. "W-Will you judge me...?" "Nope." I looked away and closed my eyes. "I-I'm.... I'm... Ga-Gay..." I slowly opened my eyes and slowly turned to Palette. "You'd think I judge you for that? I like you, for you!" I flinched and heat rushed to my cheeks faster Sonic. He probably meant it like a friend.

"Oh by the way I'm bisexual." I almost screamed, and my face felt even hotter. "You okay..?" "YAH! Yeah! I'm fine!"

I took out my phone, my heart racing of joy. 3:30 PM?!? "Oh geez I need to go now-"

My phone started to ring. My ring tone was Take a Hint. I blushed of embarrassment and quickly pressed call.

It was mom's number. But dad was talking.

"Goth?! Is this you?!"
"Yeh. Why are you calling from mom's cell phone and why do you sound so worri-"
"Goth. Your mother isn't home yet, and I got call that he's in the hospital." Dad said trying to sound calm.
"WhAT?! Why!"
"Come home now, and I'll teleport us there!"

He ended the call, and tears started flowing down my cheeks. "Goth?! What wrong-" "I-I'm sorry, but can I ta-talk to you via text later, or c-call? I-I ha-have to go." And I teleport home, leaving Palette worried and confused.

"Dad?!" "Oh sweetie, you're here. Come on, let's go." He said wiping away my tears, and held my hand and teleported.

But the tears kept flowing.

(Just to let you know, Geno didn't have the slash on his torso this whole time.

He was le normal skele wearing all white, basketball shorts, and white shoes and had both eyes sockets.)
