uke_boy Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Eric looks up. He shakes his head. He was in no sense of the word fine. He had just cried for a man who that he was a brat. And for Daren, whom he had not cried for in 3 months. "N-no, sir. But I should be soon." He said. His face abd eyes say otherwise. That he wouldn't be fine for months.

Akira&Shiki Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Ace shook his head, in all pity and regret. This poor kid seemed to have some serious emotional baggage. As a teacher, Ace wondered if it was his job to help Eric out. After all, he seemed to have been partially the cause of his student's crying… though unintentionally. Ace squatted down in front of Eric and awkwardly petted his student's hair. "It's okay, Eric. I don't hate you… I barely know you, so why would I hate you? In fact, I think you're a bright kid. So wipe away those tears, okay?" he said, lightly taking Eric's hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uke_boy Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 He looks up at you. "Y-you don't hate me? R-really? T-thank you, for saying I'm bright. It makes me feel better." He smiles with a blush at Mr. Wilder's hand on his. It warms him. "I-if you don't mind, who was the other teacher? He kind of scares me." He giggles lightly. "I'm easily scared, though. Haha.." he smiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira&Shiki Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Ace was relieved to see that Eric was claiming down a little. As confusing as this encounter had been, he didn't mind it. Eric seemed like a good kid and he seemed like he had a good head on his shoulders… and Ace definitely believed that. "Oh? The other teacher? That was a classmate of mine back when we were younger. His name is Frey Howse… but I guess you can call him Mr. Howse." Ace stood up, lightly tugging Eric along with him. "I'll walk you to class, if you want, so that you won't get marked absent, okay?"

uke_boy Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Eric smiles at Mr. Wilder. "Thanks... you know.. you.. uh... took that better than most. Most would freak out and not talk to me again... Actually... that's always what happens." He smiles wider, thinking things might not be as horrible as he originally thought. " Sorry for freaking out back there. Its just as used to rejection as I am, it doesn't get any easier.um.. that coupled with the anniversary of my older brother's death getting closer.. um i just kinda had a small break down... haha..." He sheepishly holds the back of his head. "It's in two days.." he says sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira&Shiki Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 "I took it better than most?" Ace asked, his awkward smile faltering. "Oh… well, I guess I understand how it feels to feel rejected. It's okay. And… I'm sorry about your brother. If you two were close, it's not unexpected that you miss him so much. So there's no need to apologize." Ace led Eric into the hallway. "What class do you have now?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uke_boy Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 "Yeah, most hit me, yell at me never to speak to them ever again or they'll beat me up. And,... that doesn't count the only one who said yes..." Eric shivers, "I wish I'd never met Damen. He has... abusive is too light a term, I'm just glad he had to move. But yeah, me and Daren were close, really close. He protected me, while he was alive. I met Damen after. But, anyway, Daren was... is my idol. He was the kindest guy you could ever meet, and the fiercest fighter if it meant protecting me." He smiles. " I remember once, a guy way bigger than he was had called me "fag" and Daren heard. Talk about tearin' someone a new one," Eric laughs, remembering. "Oh, i have gym," there is a slight quiver in my voice along with a trace of fear.

Akira&Shiki Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Ace sighed. It didn't seem as if Eric had had successful relationship in the past. Poor kid. Unconsciously, he rubbed Eric's head as he led him to the gym. But before the entered, he stopped in front of the door and grabbed Eric's arm. "You sound reluctant," Ace said. "You don't want to go to gym, hm? Well I don't want to let you run away, so why don't I just write you a note or something to excuse you for today? I never liked gym, either, back in school. So I feel you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
