As usual, the students were on their seats. Charlie and Vaggie sat together in the middle of the class. Husk and Niffty sat behind them. And Alastor sat at the far back a little away from his friends. Angel sat at the front of the class, waiting for his best friend Cherri to show up to sit besides him. He pulled out his phone and was disappointed to find out that Cherri had sent him a message that morning saying she couldn't make it today. She was helping her parents move into a new house they had just bought and was busy.

Angel smiled sadly, good for her, she gets to stay home and not be stuck at school. Angel didn't particularly hate school but the last few days had been tiring for him. He inhaled and turned around to his friends. "Ugh! Cherri won't be able to make it today." he said with a disappointed face.

"Oh." Pentious replied. Pentious was one of their friends and he had the biggest crush on Cherri, only if she would ever notice that. "It's okay, Pent. You will see her next week." Charlie said, trying to cheer up her friend.

Suddenly, Angel's face lost its colour. The pretty boy seemed distraught and scared. The weekend was here. He was afraid and dreading every second of the weekend. Her friends looked at him with worry. "Angel, you okay?" Niffty asked. "My dear, is there something you would like to tell us?" Alastor asked. Angel just shook his head and turned to the front.

Charlie turned to Vaggie, who looked just as shocked as her. "What do you think is up with him?" Vaggie asked. "I don't know, he has never acted like this before." Charlie replied. Husk and Niffty shared a look of confusion as well. Alastor on the other hand was in deep thought. Pentious looked really worried too.

Angel came from a mob family. His friends did know that. Could it be something related to that? Was it his dad? Did he find out that Angel was gay? They did know that Angel's dad was extremely homophobic which was funny considering both his younger children Angel and Molly were gay. Angel's older brother, Arackniss was questioning himself as well.

"Hello, students! Good Morning to you all!" the teacher said, diverting the kids attention to him. He smiled at the kids who happily said, "Good morning." back. "This is our new student, Jordan." he said, introducing a black haired boy with a smile on his face. Jordan seemed to be quite open about his sexuality. He wore a feminine shirt with a gay flag pin pinned to his chest. He walked over to Angel, "May I sit here?" he asked.

Angel nodded. And even though, Angel's attention wasn't on the new boy, Charlie and the others looked at Alastor with concern because he looked like he was holding back something. The young boy felt really jealous, seeing someone sit next to his boyfriend.

Alastor, stayed silent the entire class, not talking with his friends. He kept his eyes solely on the new boy. Angel seemed rather busy and occupied with his work. He was taking notes of everything the teacher said like always. It was funny how mischievous he was and yet so sincere in class. The new boy also seemed quite in his work. But Alastor couldn't help but notice, him glancing at Angel every now and then.

"You have really pretty handwriting. I wish mine looked like that." Jordan commented. "Aww, thanks toots. Yours aren't that bad either. Just hold your pen like this and they will get better." Angel replied. Holding his hand and correcting him.

Alastor couldn't hear them but he was alarmed when the new boy said something to Angel, that made the blue eyes boy turn red in the face. Angel was blushing? Alastor than looked in anger as Angel said something back and then held the other boy's hand. They seemed to be talking about something specific as Angel guided his hand onto the paper. Jordan turned a shade of deep red at this. Angel noticed this and smirked. He teased the new boy and the two giggled. "ANGEL! JORDAN! Stop talking or you will be sent to detention." the teacher said. The two then turned back to their books, barely containing their laughter.

Alastor felt extremely jealous. Pentious looked at him with concern. "You need to trust him. He loves you." he whispered, calming the other boy down a little.

"Hey, does your school have a drama club?" Jordan whispered to Angel. "Oh yeah. I am one of the leads, since middle school." Angel replied in a low whisper. "Wow, can I join too?" Jordan asked with excitement. "Yea, sure. Meet me after class, I will show you around." "Thanks, Angel." "Your, welcome!"

As the class ended, the teacher called out Angel, "Mr. Dust, I expect you to show Jordan around and as you are the best student in my class, catch him up on the days he missed.". "Sure." Angel replied. Charlie eyes Alastor nervously. His smile was gone, replaced with a frown. "Dark hair, dark eyes and feminine clothes, he sounds like Angel's type." Niffty teased and Alastor threw her a death glare.

Angel on the other hand was already halfway down the hall, leading the new boy away. "Here's where you can put your name for auditions, which are next week." Angel told Jordan showing him a form, pinned to the soft board.

"Cool!" Jordan exclaimed. "Also, here's my number. Text me. We can meet up and study." Angel said, handing him a card, he made of himself. "Wow, haha. That is so cute." Jordan said looking at the pink card in his hand. "You are very creative, Angel." he added, making Angel's cheek turn pink. Alastor on the other hand was still staring at them from afar.

"Okay, now we have one more class before lunch break. Let's go." he said, guiding the boy to the class. "Does he have to take him everywhere?" Alastor murmured. "Don't worry, Al. I am sure that we will see him during lunch. He is not one to forget his friends." Charlie said, trying to comfort the jealous teen. "Seem like he just did." Husk commented. "He is just helping him." Vaggie retorted and glared angrily at Husk. "I don't know, V, he seemed to blush a lot at the new kids' words." Niffty replied.

Alastor rolled his eyes, he would show that new kid, who he was if he dared touch his Angel. "With the amount of gay porn, Angel watches, I have a feeling he would love to sleep with that hottie." Pentious added. This sentence hit Alastor like a train. It hurt him more than anything else. Alastor was asexual and he knew Angel enjoyed intimacy, hell he had like five boyfriends before Alastor and a couple hook ups too. Knowing Angel, he loves sex. Was he really going to cheat on him? Alastor shuddered, trying not to cry. "You guys need to stop." Charlie said, looking at Alastor with concern. "He won't cheat on you, Al. That's not his style." Vaggie added. Alastor silently followed his friends to the class. Angel was already on the front sit with Jordan, pink in the face at something Jordan was saying.

Suddenly, Angel's eyes met Alastor's. Alastor smiled widely at his boyfriend. But to his and his friends' shock, Angel looked away almost as if he didn't wanted them to see him right now. Alastor looked taken aback and slumped into his chair. The entire class, he once again only stared at Angel and Jordan.

After the class, he didn't see Angel. He looked around frantically. "Oh oh." Niffty's voice caught his attention and he looked at Angel hugging the new boy in a corner, right before both entered the washroom. Alastor didn't say a word. He just turned around and walked to the cafeteria.

Moments later, the group saw Angel walking towards them, back to his cherry self. "Hey there, cuties. Meet my new friend, Jordan." he said, excitedly. The new boy smiled and waved at them. The group smiled broadly (Al had a very fake smile) except for Niffty who was giggling. "And these all are my friends since pre-school." Angel said. Jordan smiled broadly at the group. "This is Charlie, she is the daughter of the school's founders. That's her girlfriend, Vaggie. She can get real mad at the smallest things. This is Niffty, she is a little bit of a neat freak. This is Alastor, he wants to be radio host one day. This is Pentious, he is super shy but overall a goofball and somehow a hidden genius. And that's Husk, if you seen him drinking something in class, there is no guarantee whether it's water or not." Angel said as Jordan laughed at the last comment. Charlie eyed Alastor with concern. Al was extremely bothered that Angel didn't introduce him as his boyfriend but he was still smilling.

Jordan sat and had lunch with them. He laughed at their jokes and shared his story. Jordan was from a wealthy family in London. He moved to America, last month with his mother after his parents' divorce. "Mama's boy, definitely Angel's type." Niffty whispered to Alastor again. Alastor remained silent the entire lunch.

After school, the group was standing outside the grounds. "He is not coming." Alastor remarked with spite in his voice, referring to Angel not being there with them. "We don't know that." Charlie spoke. "Oh, we do." Al replied.

"Broken boy." a bully suddenly called out. "Shut your mouth up, bitch! Or I will break every bone in your body." Vaggie shouted. Alastor just shivered. He hated being called that. But since the fact that he was asexual had got out, he was being called broken by people. "He is not broken!" Charlie shouted angrily. She was the calmest person in the group but one attack at her friends and she turned into a protective shield. "Run!" Vaggie said, pushing the bully. Vaggie and Alastor barely got along but Vaggie had a rule that no one could insult her friends but her. Alastor remained quiet. Usually, Angel would speak up for him. But he wasn't here. He was somewhere with that new boy.

" Hey, how about this. You go talk to Angel and then meet us at our meeting place and then tell us how it went." Husk said, tired of seeing his best friend upset. "I have never went to his house before or met his parents." Alastor said. "There's a first time for everything and whether you like it or not, you are going there." Pentious said. Alastor nodded.

The moment he reached the front door to Angel's house, he saw another face. Angel was on the porch, talking to Jordan."Come on in. I will help you catch up." the white haired boy said with a broad smile. Jordan nodded. "Angel?" Alastor called out. Angel's face became pale again, hearing Al's voice. "Give me a minute." he said and walked over to his boyfriend. "What are you doing here?" he asked.

"I missed you and well Husk and Charlie said I should come visit you." Alastor replied. "Well, you need to leave." Angel said, much to Alastor's shock. "Look, All. You gotta leave. Please, go away." Angel said. Before Al could say anything, the other boy pushed him out side the gate. "I am sorry, but leave." he murmured. Angel turned on his heel and went on the house, slamming the door behind.

Alastor felt tears threaten to fall from his eyes. He felt his smile falter. He felt like he had lost everything. "Alastor?" he was pulled into a hug. He looked up to see his friend and Angel's neighbour, Rosie. "What's wrong, Al?" she asked, gently running his back. "Angel he...., he kicked me out." Al managed to say in between sobs. Rosie drive him to the rest of the group.

"I can't believe he did that." Vaggie said, angrily. "Actually I think I know, why." Rosie replied. "Why?"Alastor, asked trying hard not to cry again.

"A few weeks ago, his father found out he was gay. I think his dad has been hitting him because he has been very a lot of coveralls lately. And I think his dad saw a photo of you. He probably kicked you out to protect you. And....." she stopped and looked around. Everyone looked quite stunned. "And what, Rosie?" Pentious asked. "I don't really know. But he is going to be sent somewhere for the weekend. I don't know where just that he will be leaving tonight and not return till Sunday midnight." Rosie replied. "We need to find out boy this." Charlie said. "I will call Cherri, we will go there tonight." Vaggie added. "Come over to my house for a slumber party so we can see when they leave."Rosie suggests and the group agrees. "Hey, everything will be alright." Husk said, patting Alastor's back.
