[Insert Name] had made it through his last two classes of the day without feeling it again. He didn't know what that weird emotion was. It was something he hadn't felt before- even when he did feel emotions- the whole situation was odd. The buzzer rang for the final time that day, signaling for all the kids to jump up and run out of the classroom. [Insert Name] took his time placing his school supplies into his backpack. When he stepped out of the classroom, they were waiting.
"Yo dude, what took you so long?" Matt said rhetorically.
Oliver just gave him a mean glare.
"So, what're you going this weekend?" Matt rushed out excitedly. "Wanna hang out with us?" Matt asked his plethora of endless questions.
[Insert Name] just continued walking towards the exit with the gang following him. They got all sorts of odd stares, this was all an enigma to them; Why would they hang out with someone like [Insert Name]? They continued onto the sidewalk, and [Insert Name] was half expecting them to try and kidnap him again, but just as they were about to proceed with their oh-so-sneaky plan, a large presence appeared behind [Insert Name]. They all curled back in fear, and as [Insert Name] turned, he was sure he was going to be faced with another jock in line to beat him up, but he couldn't have been more wrong. The large figure put his arms around [Insert Name].
"You didn't touch my sunflower, da?" Ivan smiled at them.
Ivan had a very unique smile. It was bloodcurdling, the terrifying face of a coldblooded murderer. And it wasn't that far off either.
"Alright," Matthias uttered out, gaining some courage, "W-we'll see you Monday." He began walking away, visibly shaken from the encounter.
"See, see ya later Dinky." Matt shook before running after the others.
[Insert Name] looked up at the towering figure that was holding restraint on him.
"Privet, Big Brother!" He smiled up at Ivan.
***
Ivan had driven [Insert Name] home, and his other brothers were less than happy. Gilbert stayed away from him, always grumbling empty-handed threats, then retreating when he had thought Ivan heard him. Ludwig stayed quiet and just observed. All the homeland fratellos had left for some "work stuff," Fransisco was the only one who stayed, and he treated Ivan the same as he treated everyone else, although, [Insert Name] could tell he was petrified.
"So, what are you doing in town?" Fransisco asked, shakily placing down a tea set on the table in front of Ivan.
"Yes, I would like to know too." Ludwig looked over at them.
Ivan put his large hand on [Insert Name]'s head, "To see my sunflower. That's ok, right?" He smiled at Fransisco.
"Ye-yes, it is." He nodded frantically.
Ivan picked up one of the teacups, sipping lightly on it. Ivan's silvery hair shone in the bright lighting of the room. As much as Fransisco had insisted, Ivan refused to remove his large overcoat from his body. Not to mention his scarf. He would die for that scarf. [Insert Name] felt oddly comfortable sitting there. He had his good brothers with him, now he just wished he had all of them. [Insert Name] decided that they all needed a break from trying to be polite to each other.
"I'm going to sleep." [Insert Name] had excused himself.
"Goodnight!" They all said together.
[Insert Name] walked up to his room, hearing the fighting and arguing start once he had left the room. He sat on his bed, wondering what he could do to kill some time. The world kill struck a chord with his subconscious. [Insert Name] shook it from his mind. He was pretty sure that he had depression, but he wasn't suicidal. He didn't want to hurt the ones who actually cared about him, so he had never considered harming himself before. He probably wouldn't even be able to feel it anyways, what was the point? A small 'Ding' caught his attention. He pulled the small cellphone that Matthias had given him, out of his pocket, as he was certain that was where the sound had emitted from. He clicked on the screen, seeing that he had received a text message:
'Wyd rn?-Matthias'
[Insert Name] was confused by the text. He quickly typed his response.
'What does that mean? I'm confused.'
He waited for Matthias's answer and was met with it shortly.
'Sorry, I'll teach you some texting things later.'-Matthias
'Wyd= What you doing. rn=right now. '-Matthias.
[Insert Name] shook his head in understanding before texting back.
'I'm sitting in my room, texting you.'
He decided to be more literal.
'What were you doing before that?'-Matthias.
[Insert Name] thought about what to say, he couldn't just tell him that he was thinking about suicide.
'I was going to go to bed...'
'Dude, it's only 5:00'-Matthias.
[Insert Name] didn't even realize that it was that early. Matthias sent another text before he could respond.
'How bout you come over to our place for a bit?'-Matthias
' "our?" '
[Insert Name] quoted what Matthias had texted.
'Yeah, the five of us live together. You should totally come over!'-Matthias.
[Insert Name] didn't know what to say next. He would probably get in a lot of trouble if he accepted.
'You still there?'-Matthias
'I don't know if I'd be allowed...'
'Don't worry, we can have our parents meet up first. My mom's pretty chill.'-Matthias.
[Insert Name]'s smile- which he didn't even realize until now- dropped to a frown. He didn't have any parents. He barely had a guardian.
'That's not what I meant.'
He typed back, what was he doing. Was he trying to get rid of him? That thought made [Insert Name]'s pain come back. Another emotion...
'What? Like you're not aloud at other peoples houses?'-Matthias
[Insert Name] cringed at the improper grammar before typing back.
'It's complicated.'
He put it in the simplest terms possible. He waited for the begging of answers.
'Naw, dude, it kewl.'-Matthias
[Insert Name] sure wasn't expecting that.
'Oh, gtg.Ttyl!'-Matthias
[Insert Name] sat once again, confused by the odd texting slang Matthias had used. He waited a few minutes but didn't get another text from Matthias, so he guessed it had to do with something about having to go. [Insert Name] plugged in the phone on the charger he had been given for the phone, hiding it under his bed so none of his brothers would see it. Something just felt wrong about him texting Matthias. He curled up under the blanket on his thin mattress, and went to sleep.
