Miles made way to his room, changing into his sports uniform that was provided to them by the school and came out only to find Lucas sitting on the couch, glass of milk in his hand and Christopher lying down lazily on the other couch. "Thank God." Lucas huffed, standing up. "Let's go." Christopher opens his eyes, stood up as he bid them goodbye and hugged Miles. "Remember what I told you okay. Don't worry about anything." Miles nodded and hugged Christopher back before running toward the elevator where Lucas was waiting for him. Lucas saw how both best friends held each other in their arms. Not to get jealous, as he knew Christopher has always been there for him right after when he thought his life was finished and he was left all alone. But this relationship between both friends feels so precious. The way Christopher got so worried just by seeing Mile’s crying. Lucas always wanted this. He has an egoistic personality and rude behaviour, but he just can't help it. There had been
Miles was thankful that he didn't collapse or else he doesn’t know what Lucas would've done. Lucas was standing like a hawk on these 5 students who were doing their best to not mess up during exercise. "5 push ups" he announced. One of student made an annoyed huffing sound hearing the announcement."Atlas." Lucas called making the student stand straight in front of him. "Y-yes sir." "You got a problem?" "N-No sir." The boy shook his head. "I heard you complain about exercise!" "N-No sir. I'm perfectly fine with it." Atlas lied. "Alright then, 10 push ups for you and the rest of you will do 5. Hurry up." He announced marking each of students’ progress. Miles didn't say another word and positioned himself for the said exercise. Lucas did show him the demo, so they know how to do it, but it was hard. Everyone did 3 push-ups easily but then they were finding it hard to do it."That's good at least 3 is a good progress. I'm glad you guys know how to push your limits. Finish the r
"Why don't you forget that and forgive him." Willie came forward."Lucas don't forget anything and he just can't get away with it." Lucas smirked and walked toward the parking where his car was parked. "You are being unkind to him." "Willie shut up." Lucas rolled his eyes as they all got into the car. He stopped the car in front of the gate so that Miles can come. "Moura, tell your boyfriend to keep his mouth shut. If he said one more word to Miles, I won't hesitate to rip him apart." Lucas saw Moura from the rare view and spoke. "He won't say anything. Willie shut up now." Moura said monotonously and closed his eyes to get some sleep. Lucas was on his phone, typing something and Moura was fast asleep when Willie saw Miles running toward the car with brightest smile on his face. He genuinely feels sorry for a pure soul like him to get in trouble with Lucas.Lucas almost threw the phone into his lap as soon as he heard the car door open. "Alright guys here we go." Lucas announced
Lucas saw how Miles was curled up in himself on the back seat. His occasional hiccups were the proof that he was crying. And Lucas couldn't be more satisfied. But the drama was left. He was busy looking at the back seat from the rare view when his mobile ringed. He looked at the caller id to see Christopher calling him. "Hello Chris." Lucas called his name purposefully. He knew Miles wasn't sleeping. And just as he expected Miles looked at him with red teary eyes. "Why did you asked me to call you? Everything okay? Is Miles, okay?" "Nothing's fine Chris. I can't tell you anything on the phone. I'm heading back home. I've sent you a text on WhatsApp check it out and come home early today." Lucas replied as he saw how Miles shook his head on his every word. He even tried to reach for his phone. "Luca, you are scaring me. What happened?""I said check the message you'd know." Lucas replied. "I'll talk to you when you'll come home. Bye." "Lucas, I did nothing. I promise your friend
Cal was busy making lunch when he heard the front door closing. He flinched because he wasn't really expecting anyone. Not in the day. He didn't have to leave the kitchen, as soon he saw a hat and the shirt thrown to the wooden chair in living room. Their kitchen had a wide window opening to the living room. He looked out to see James slumped on the chair, hand pinching the bridge of nose and face frowned. His eyes were also closed indicating he clearly stressed. But the thing that made Cal worry is that James was okay a few hours ago when he left for the fields. He was as usual down as he was missing Miles, but it wasn't this bad. Something definitely happened in these two hours. James was a pacifist; he would never jump into a fight. He believes to talk things out instead of throwing hands at each other. Both brothers are same so, one thing was clear he didn't get in a fight but then maybe he might have gotten in to a conflict."Are you okay? You came back early today. I was abou
Christopher has come back to office and right after he came back his boss handed him a mountain of files that he needs to read and write report about.Looking at the build of files one thing is clear to him that he is going to stay for late night. This work isn't for two or three hours he is given a work that was pending from last year."Christopher." A shrill voice called him out. Christopher turned to see the girl with the brightest smile on her face."Hey Alicia." Christopher turned. His voice naturally turning sweet and loving."Looks like Lee shoved all these files up your ass." Alicia laughed."Up till my throat. This is going to take my sweet night sleep." Christopher pouted."Come on do your really think I would let that bastard torture my love like this. I'm here to help you." She gave a quick kiss on his cheek and Chris
I told you Chris, I was right here with him after you left. He was okay, I made us dinner, I thought you'd stay for late." Lucas said leaning against the wall, a well-deserved smirk dancing on his lips. "You never told me that." Chris yelled from the other side. "I told you, but you were going out of your mind, yelling to go see him. He was okay. His phone died and while having dinner he didn't remember to charge his phone. And when I came, he was in washroom taking bath. That's it." Lucas lied so confidently. He was sure he handled the situation well. "Are you telling me that I slipped all this in the previous call?" Christopher wasn't much convinced. "Yes, you weren't even listing to me. By the way, where are you? Should I make you something? Have you eaten anything?" Lucas asked in pure concern. After all, he was doing all of this to keep his place in Christopher's life. "I'm on my way. I'll be back home soon, just stay with him okay." Christopher replied. "I said have you ea
Lucas woke up, head heavy and spinning. His eyes couldn't focus in an instant. There was bright light piercing the thin curtains and winning over the darkness of the room. It took him good 10 minutes, to understand his position. He wasn't on his bed, well his position wasn't clearly of the bed. He was curled up and his back was stiff meaning he slept while sitting.....couch. He was on the couch. He groaned, trying to sit properly. His hands reaching up to grab his head. He felt like someone is hammering him in his head. And soon the peaceful silence of the room was broken by the arching sound of glass shattering. Lucas opened his eyes abruptly only to realize that he had been drinking last night. The bottle on the table dropped by the abrupt movement of his feet. Another gran left his mouth when he stood up. 7:30 am. It was his time to get ready for school. He looked around the living room and saw his shoes lying across the room and his jacket on the ground. His Bluetooth device
