This was Nim's last year at Oakwood High School, and it's been three years and counting since Lukas had stopped talking to him. He took that back, since that was an understatement. Lukas had completely forgotten about his existence, and he wished he could not let that bug him. It bugged him a lot. He liked Lukas, he was a really sweet guy. But his friends on the other-hand..? Not so much. They liked to tease and poke fun at Nim whenever they got the chance to. He knew they were just being teenagers, but it still hurt nonetheless.
Suddenly snapping back to reality, Nim looked at the clock on the classroom wall, it was 12:30; time for lunch. He put away his pencil and eraser, and grabbed his belongings. It was about time that he made his way to the cafeteria, instead of loitering around in the classroom.
His feet traced through the near empty hallway, students were either already in the cafeteria or in their classrooms, finishing up their morning classes. Nim neared two large doors, he proceeded to walk through the doors, ignoring passerby students and staff members on the other side.
He waited in the lunch line, it didn't take him too long before he left the line in search of an empty table. Unfortunately, there were no empty tables. So the best he could do is try and find one that had the least amount of people sitting at it. He found a table with four other high school students sitting at it, and that was good enough for him.
Nim decided to sit as far away from the group of teenagers as possible. He sat down and set his tray on the hard, cold table. He'd have about ten minutes to eat before he would go to his next class. 'Not enough time to eat.. but I guess I'll have to make do. It won't be long until I have to walk to my next class, anyways..' he thought, while opening up a plastic packet. It contained your basic eating utensils and a small napkin. 'Bon appetit..'

This sucked. Lukas was already caught up with work these past years, but why does he have to work even more during his last year? Sometimes he didn't even have time to spend with his friends-which sucked even more because his friends were pretty
Lukas was spacing out when he suddenly felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. Quickly turning on the phone and reading the texts one of his friends sent him, he hurried out of his class to meet up with the rest of the crew in the cafeteria. It's been a while since Lukas not skip lunch in favor of working on an essay or studying for whatever. He technically still did have to work on an essay about trees or something boring like that but it could wait, right? Doesn't matter-he had to get to the cafeteria soon since he didn't have time to waste.
Since when did the cafeteria get so packed-and the lunch line get so long? Good thing he makes his own lunches because he was already anxious-er than usual from drinking coffee (he didn't have a choice, he pulled an all-nighter when he couldn't survive without his beauty sleep). He looked around the cafeteria until he finds his friends signaling for him to come over. "Hey nerd! Did you here about the Oakwood Exposing thing on Instagram? People are saying that the school's expelling the students that got exposed on there and are trying to expel the people running it."
Lukas rolled his eyes and scoffed. "That's pretty lame, to be honest. That's been up ever since we first came he-" "But seriously, they even found out about Nicole. That's why she stopped coming to school." One of his friends kept rambling on, unaware that Lukas wasn't paying attention as usual. He didn't even notice that it was time to go until the group got up. "Hey nerd, wanna hang after school? Becky's

Nim managed to eat his lunch quickly, before those short ten minutes passed by. 'I'm surprised the staff here think we can finish everything in ten minutes.. well.. no matter. It's time I moved on to my next class.' he grabbed his bag and tray and got out of his seat. Upon exiting the cafeteria, he set his tray on top of the trashcan. 'The lunch monitors usually pick them up after all the students leave..' he reminded himself, leaving the cafeteria.
As he was walking down the hall, his Language Arts teacher Mrs. Bailey beckoned him over. Reluctantly, he walked towards her. "What is it Mrs. Bailey..?" he asked. "I need to ask you to do something for me. And don't worry about making it to your next class on time, I told Mr. Ayshford about this little meeting." she replied. This reassured Nim "Oh.. well if that's the case.. what do you need me to do..?"
"You're a friend of Lukas' right?" Well, was, but she wasn't completely wrong. Before he had the chance to respond she continued on "I'm afraid he hasn't been working on his essay lately. He's probably been hanging out with his 'friends..' I want you to help him with his project. Please, I normally wouldn't be asking you to do this but you're one of the smartest students on campus, plus you're well acquainted with Lukas, I'm sure you'll be able to talk some sense into him." she said, staring at him hopefully. Nim stared at her, she sounded so desperate.. she really wanted him to pass this assessment. 'She must really care for her students.. I couldn't turn her down even if I want to..'
"Don't worry Mrs. Bailey, I'll ste-eer him in the right direction." he replied with a smile. 'I may have stuttered there.. but I'll just have to ignore it and endure the embarrassment..' he thought to himself. Mrs. Bailey couldn't have cared less about his stuttering, "Thank you so much.. you better head to your next class though." Nim had totally forgot "Oh, right! Thank you for reminding me Mrs. Bailey.. take care!" he speed-walked away. "What a nice kid." she muttered to herself.
He opened the door so suddenly it gave Mr. Ayshford a good jump-scare. In fact, he nearly leapt out of his seat. "Oh! Mr. Campbell, I was wondering when you were going to show up. Please return to your seat, your work is on your desk." he told him. "Thank you, I'll get right to work." he told his teacher, walking towards his desk, taking a seat on his chair. 'This day's going to be awfully long.. I better contact Lukas after school.. he'll want to start working on his essay right away." he thought while working. 'Lukas.. I don't know what you've gotten yourself into with your friends.. but I hope you're alright.'

also I'd rather we time skip to where they actually meet-
He wished he could just skip next class, but he wasn't that much of a rebel. He once tried to during his first year but he felt bad and decided against it. He liked Mrs. Sanders, but she always talked too much and when he once accidentally started a flame war she got on everyone's case for the rest of the class. At least she was nice to him and was always willing to help if he didn't understand something.
Lukas looked at his phone and realized that he was going to be late at this rate. Alarmed, he sprinted towards his next class, mentally cursing himself for taking too long. He was about to enter her class when the bell suddenly rang, making him melodramatically slump as he walked in. "Sorry Mrs. Sanders, I-" "Don't worry about it, just try not to be late next time." He genuinely beamed at the shorter woman, she was a lifesaver. Although he kind of felt bad for being excused-it really was his fault this time for being late.
He went ahead and sat at his desk, noticing that it was going to be a lecture day due to the fact that everyone had their notes out. For once the class is quiet and paying attention-something that is rare in his class because it's the worst-behaving class. He doesn't look up as he jots down bits of his teacher's lecture, but halfway through his note-taking he feels the familiar vibration in his jacket pocket that signified someone was yelling at him via text again. When Mrs. Sanders wasn't looking, he checked his phone (she didn't mind when he did since she knew it wouldn't take very long but he felt bad anyways) and rolled his eyes. Typing a quick response, he put his phone away.
It was one of his friends trying to get him to go to the party tonight. Not wanting to be bothered all day, he reluctantly agreed to going. He could make up the lost time during his other classes and tomorrow. It's not like he's failing or anything-he's actually a pretty good student-so it should be fine if he had a small break. Like his friends said, he was overworking himself when he didn't really need to. Everything would be fine if he took a break...right?

Almost three hours had passed since Nim had attended Mr. Ayshford's class. School was over for the day, and he knew what he had to do. 'How am I going to find Lukas in this huge crowd..?' he wondered. Nim was a little anxious, but overall excited. He hadn't talk to Lukas in three years. 'I kind of just let those group of kids take my only friend away.. back then.. I should've probably put up more of a fight.. but then again.. would my grade still be the same..? I haven't really talked to any of the other students here.. It's only been Lukas, and always Lukas..' he let out a sigh. It was no use letting his negative thoughts run rampant, that would only make him more depressed than he already was.
He'd been searching for a while, but just when he was about to lose hope he spotted Lukas and his friends talking amongst one another. 'Oh thank god.. they haven't left yet.' But now came the hardest task, approaching them. Nim was determined to help his friend, so he mustered up all his courage and walked over towards the group of teenagers.
"Mr. Lukas.." Nim spoke up as he approached the group. 'Why did you address him like that, Nim? Ugh, you're such an idiot.' "I had a-a talk with Mrs. Bailey about your essay. She wants me to help you o-on it.. she's afraid you might fail." he didn't really know how to word it, and ignored his stutter, hiding his shame and embarrassment. "So.. I thought maybe we would work on it after school.." he readjusted his glasses before speaking again. "So-o.. what do you say? I think working on it now would be best.. the sooner you get started on it the better." he finished. 'Oh death.. the sweet release of death.. he's not going to listen to me with his friends around.. I might as well just head home after this..'
Nim awaited Lukas' response, trying to not let his nervousness show, and ignoring the stares of Lukas' friends. 'Please stop staring at me like that.. it doesn't help..' he thought. The awkward silence was already making his mind turn. 'Jeez.. this is so embarrassing.. I'm so sorry Lukas. I wish I could've been a better friend.'

I'm gonna cry why am I like this-
"When I was going to 8th period Mrs. Miller tried to get me in trouble again. She's so annoying-always tryna get in my business like that." One of his friends scoffed as the group was walking towards the entrance, talking about whatever. "I have her first thing in the morning, I feel your pain dude. She's always gotta say somethin'." Another friend added, again not noticing that Lukas wasn't paying attention as usual. He snapped out of his thoughts again when a somewhat familiar figure approached him.
His unruly hair, the way he would stutter-there was no way it could be him. The fluttering in his stomach soon turned to dread. He wiped his sweaty palms on his pants, swallowing the bile as he was unable to tear his eyes away from him. Lukas thought he had gotten away from Nim-away from everything. But no-Nim and his stupid feelings wouldn't leave him after all this time. It was disgusting-Lukas was disgusting. He was straight. He liked girls. Liking Nimson after all these years this way was wrong.
"Who is he?" "Why is he stutterin' like that?" "Isn't he like one of those teacher's pets?" The group was staring right at Nimson, muttering things between them. "Lukas already has plans." One of them spoke up, taking a step towards the shorter teen. Lukas snapped out of his thoughts at this, pushed his friends aside (earning him a few glares), and stood before his old friend. "Sorry about them, Nimson. Is that so? I don't mind, actually. Where would you prefer working on it?" He asked, his grin becoming slightly strained as he forced the bile threatening to rise up down for the second time today. Now was not the time to panic.
"You already got plans though. Don't tell me that you're still ga-" "Shut up, I don't need you to tell me if I have plans or not." Lukas suddenly snapped at one of his friends, a surprising edge to his voice that no one has heard in his voice before. It took a second to process what he had said, but as soon as he did he grabbed Nimson's hand (awfully aware of how soft and tiny it was) and stormed off with his head pounding and his face flushed in anger (and/or something else).
"Sorry about that, as you heard I kind of had plans but that doesn't really matter." He chirped, quickly letting go of his hand as soon as they were far enough from the group for his liking. They were outside of the building-had he walked that far? Didn't matter. "Ah, it's been a while actually. Nice to see you again." He beamed, breath and voice slightly shaky. He was a little too aware of the space between the two and how his heart threatened to burst out of his chest, so he tried to calm down in an attempt to avoid being confronted.

bl cliches,, bl cliches everywhere lmfao also omg nim's small yaoi hands i can't-
i'm actually sobbing why are we like this ))
The group had begun to mock him, how typical of them. How predictable. Nim didn't really blame them too much, though. He was the epitome of a nerd. A teacher's pet. That one cliche kid that would get bullied in a cringy-worthy high school movie. The one thing that did exceed his expectations though was Lukas' kindness. Surely since he's been around these delinquents he would've developed at least some of their behaviors?
The group began to tell him that Lukas already had plans, those words felt like a smack on the face. Did he now? He was already too far gone, was there any point in trying to win him back? To help him with his essay? One of the taller teens took a step towards him, yes, this was it. This was the end to their friendship. Was it even a friendship..? He hadn't known him for too long, and he seemed to enjoy being around these select teens. 'Would he be better off without me?' his mind wandered, but what happened next suddenly snapped him out of his thoughts.
Lukas had snapped at one of his friends. The sudden aggressive action derailed Nim's train of thought and made him flinch. Lukas had rebelled against the delinquent group, so cool! But then he grabbed Nim's hand and stormed off. Nim had to speed-walk to keep up with Lukas, but finally they stopped and he let go of his hand. "Are you sure the plans don't matter..? I'm not really a part of your life anymore.. I was such a crappy friend.. it's no wonder you left me.. It's been three years.. and I.." Nim looked like he was about to cry, but he couldn't blame himself. He had kept all of this bottled in for three years, he couldn't hold it in anymore. "I-I.. was so lonely.." he finshed, he didn't mean to pause but it had just happened on it's own.
"But it's okay.. because you have new fri-iends.. new friends that will make you happy. You don't need me anymore.. and seeing you happy makes me happy. So it's okay." He kept telling himself that it was okay. But was it really..? Nim was shaking now, he was well aware that he was breaking down in front of people. He didn't care, he wanted Lukas to know what he went through. He want him to at least understand the pain and grief, the solitude and confinement.. hopefully now that he had vented it would all be alright. Yeah, everything was alright now. After all this Lukas would go back to his friends, and he'd be all alone. Everything would be ok.

I was gonna make my posts angsty but screw that lets use cliches-
eughhh it's shorter than I wanted it to be, sorry
A wave of guilt crashed over him. Of course Nim would feel bad if he ditched him out of the blue. Who wouldn't? He didn't even consider Nim's feelings when he left him. He looked and sounded like he was about to cry, which only made him regret his decisions even more. Although their friendship didn't last long, he really liked-no, he still likes Nim-as a friend of course!
He wanted to reassure the model student but his throat was dry as he could only watch as Nim continued to break down. He felt hot with shame and he felt his stomach drop once more. People were staring. He would get a bad rep for this-making a teacher's pet break down in broad daylight like thi-no! Now wasn't the time to be thinking about himself, he had to do something. But what exactly? Lukas was never good with words and he didn't even know if Nim was okay with being touched, heck-he didn't know if he was okay with touching Nim. But Nim let himself be dragged by him without letting go, so it should be fine-right? Most people didn't liked being touched so friendly like Lukas often wants to do-so was it really fine? He's overthinking-Nim will let him know if he's uncomfortable with Lukas touching him right now, so there's only one way to find out.
Lukas hugged Nim, one
Posted: Sat, 10/06/2017 17:51 (6 Years ago)
also you don't need to apologize u dork ))
Nim was suddenly embraced by Lukas, at first he was surprised; he did not expect Lukas to come into contact with him. At most, he was expecting some encouraging words, not physical contact. The moment was oddly comforting. Nim's body stopped shaking, he was beginning to calm down. Although, wouldn't Lukas be hurting too? If so, he wanted to comfort him as well. He didn't want Lukas to be hurting. So Nim wrapped Lukas in a hug "Thank you." he said, after a pause he continued "I'm sorry, I should really pull myself together." he pulled away from the hug, flashing Lukas a warm smile.
"Come on, we can work at my place. Oh, and it's alright if you didn't bring a laptop or anything, you can work on mine for the time being. I'm pretty sure we won't finish everything in one go, but it'd be wise if you bring your USB from now on." he said, acting like the break down had never even happened. "Follow me, I don't live too far from the school grounds, I usually get home in about five minutes." he said, Nim was already scheduling a routine as he walked. "Hey, when do your parents expect you home..?" Nim asked "Personally, my parents wouldn't mind if you stayed for dinner. It'd also give us a bit more time to work on your essay." he added.
In the span of five or so minutes, they were approaching Nim's home. It wasn't anything too special, just a small one-story house. "We're here!" he announced, grabbing a house key from his pant pocket. Nim then unlocked the door and walked inside "I'm home." he took off his shoes and set his bag by the doorway; his arm seriously needed a small rest. A middle-aged woman with ginger hair walked towards her son, wrapping him in a big hug. "You got home safely! Oh, and who's this?" she broke away from the hug, looking at Lukas. "A friend, Lukas actually. I'm helping him with his essay on.. trees..? I think it was trees. Something like that.." he replied. "Oh! So this is the Lukas you've told me about." she gave Lukas a kind smile. "I'm Carol, it's a pleasure to officially meet you."
"Oh! Dinner should be ready in about thirty minutes. Nim, Amy left you some apples slices in the fridge, there should be enough for the two of you." Carol said, walking off to help her wife with the cooking. "Okay, thanks!" Nim chirped "I'll get them after I get Lukas working on essay." he picked his bag back up. "Come on, let's go to my room. We'll be able to work quietly in there." he walked off, expecting Lukas to follow.

Enjoy nerd
He jumped when he felt a smaller pair of arms return the embrace. He wanted to stay like this, but of course Nim moved away after a bit-it felt nice while it lasted. Oh-Nim definitely didn't pull away so...maybe it was okay if he touched him like that more often? His thoughts were soon cut off when Nim...oh my god-Nim smiled at him. Nim smiled at him. His smile was absolutely adorable? No-he wasn't gay, they were just friends and Nim just so happened to be really, really cute. "D-Don't worry about it-" He mumbled, face slightly flushed and hand rubbing the back of his neck.
He really admired Nim-he cried over the end of Naruto for 3 days and Nim's over here already recovering within minutes from a breakdown. But-But did he hear right? They were going to Nim's place? Well I mean, he did say that he didn't mind if he worked on his essay in either of their places. Why was he even getting worked up over this anyways? He went to other peoples' places all of the time-not to mention all the times he's went out partying with his friends. Nevermind, he shouldn't be overthinking right now-he'll look weird.
"Hey, when do your parents expect you home? Personally, my parents wouldn't mind if you stayed for dinner. It'd also give us a bit more time to work on your essay." Nim said casually. His stomach dropped for the umpteenth time today and he attempted to mask the pain that was threatening to show on his face. It wasn't Nim's fault but it still hurt. He was on the phone with them as a young boy when they got into a car crash. He'll just leave it at that, now wasn't the time to be thinking about it. Besides, it wasn't Nim's fault-and he still had Celine and Alexis. "My sis doesn't really mind how late I'll be staying today, so I don't mind staying for a while if you'll have me." He replies, hoping that he got the message and didn't point it out. He already used up all of his negative emotions for today.
When they approached Nim's house, it looked..how should he put it? Cozy, like where a really sweet family lived in. He pushed away the sickening thoughts and opted to think about something that made him happy. Nim made him ha-no. He was just a friend. They didn't even know each other for that long before he ditched him. When they entered Nim's house he decided to follow Nim's lead, muttering a "pardon the intrusion" and rubbed the back of his neck as he awkwardly stood behind Nim. A lady who he assumed to be Nim's mother hugged said teen...he kind of felt awkward witnessing this scene, he already felt like he was intruding. "The pleasure is mine, ma'am, thank you for having me!" He hastily replied, obviously flustered.
'Nim...talks about me?' He thought to himself, a giddy feeling blooming in his chest and apparently his face-not noticing that he had a faint blush as he smiled to himself. No-he's only happy because they're friends, that's all. Shaking off the thought, his mind wanders to the name "Amy". 'His sister? ...Girlfriend?' Why was he worried anyways? He bit his bottom lip until he tasted a tang of copper, wincing.
Nim and his mother were both really sweet-no wonder Nim is the way he is as a te-"Come on, let's go to my room. We'll be able to work quietly in there." His mind instantly short-circuited. They were going to Nim's room. Nim's room. Alone. Just the two of them. He was too young for this. Is this what Celine meant when she said to always leave the door open when you're alone with someone? This was all happening so sudde-wait! But he's straight! They're both straight guys just doing schoolwork...alone. He shook his head as he tried to ignore his

also sorry for the short post :^) ))
Nim walked across the hallway, and came to a stop once he was in front of a white door. He turned the door knob and let himself in. The room wasn't too big, but it wasn't too small either. A good portion of the walls were lined with bookshelves, which were stocked to the brim with books and magazines. His bed was sitting in a corner of the room, his work desk not too far from it. The walls that weren't lined with bookshelves had posters of various games, novels, and movies on them.
He set his bag on the bed and reached for his medium-sized black laptop on his desk. Nim then set it on his bed. "My lapto-op shouldn't be protected with a password, so just open up Microsoft Word and start working on your essay. I'll be back in a moment, my other mom, Amy, left some snacks in the fridge. If you need anything else while I'm gone just holler and I'll be right there." he left the room, heading towards the kitchen.
Nim ran right into the kitchen, hastily opening the fridge door. As Amy heard the fridge door being opened she suddenly said "I also restocked the cabinets." Nim heard her "Okay." he replied, grabbing the plate of apple slices. Before he walked to the other side of the kitchen he set the plate on the marble countertop. Nim opened the cabinet door and grabbed the family sized bag of potato chips with one hand. "I'm going back to my room." he called out to his moms. "Alright, Nim." he heard Carol say. "Good luck on the essay!" Amy called out. "Thank you!" Nim thanked Amy, grabbing the plate of apple slices with his other free hand.
He walked back into his room, shutting the door behind him. Nim put the plate apple slices and potato chip bag on his desk. "I brought the snacks." he announced. He grabbed an apple slice from the plate and stuck it in his mouth. Nim sat on the bed, glancing at the laptop. "How far did you get..?" he asked before taking a bite of apple. He swallowed the apple, then spoke "Dinner should be ready soon, so let's try and not fill up on snacks."

SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG TO POST I KEEP ON FORGETTING TO WORK ON THIS AAAAAAA
TAKE MY HORRIBLE POST
Nim's room...was and wasn't what he expected. One of the walls were completely covered in bookshelves which made his head hurt looking at them-he expected a bookshelf but not three? And then there was the posters. Lukas was surprised-some of the posters he only recognized because they were popular, but...was that a Persona poster he saw in the corner of his eye? He mentally stashed that information away, intending to bring that up later.
Other...mom? He felt a wave of embarrassment (would that be the correct word to use? He didn't know), why was he assuming things from the start? It wasn't his business to know, but he felt a bit relieved knowing that she was Nim's...other mother. Why was he even thinking about these things? He must've made his teacher worried if she made someone like Nim help him. Well...he didn't exactly work on his essay very much (read: at all) so he couldn't blame her.
Lukas reluctantly sat on Nim's bed after he left and opened up said nerd's laptop on his lap. As Nim had said a few minutes ago, the laptop didn't have a password so he just followed Nim's orders and opened up Microsoft Word. He stared at the blinking line thing (He never learned what it was called) for a couple of seconds and groaned in frustration. He had no idea how to write this essay-he's only seen Gharials in memes or something and even then he didn't know what they were.
When he heard footsteps approaching he kind of-scratch that-he was totally panicking. How angry would Nim be if he found out that Lukas didn't even know what a Gharial was? He didn't have any more time to worry as soon as Nim entered with snacks. Nim stuck an apple in his mouth and sat beside him which made his heart do a thing that it shouldn't be doing. Forget that-Nim would be extremely angry or disappointed in him if he found out that he didn't work on his essay at all.
Might as well be honest about it. "On a scale of one to you'd suplex me into a dumpster, how angry would you be if I told you that I have no idea what is a Gharial?" 'Way to go, Lukas. You sound like a total loser right now. Nim is gonna regret helping you at this rate. Nim wouldn't even want to hang out with someone stupid like you, he's only doing this because he was asked to- He bit his lip until he realized too late that he bit too hard earlier and now he tasted copper upon opening the wound again. But his lip was the least of his worries-Nim probably thinks that he's stupid after what he had just said.

"Well.. let's see, Gharials are part of the Gavialidae family, which is in the order of Crocodilia. They in India.. and they eat fish." he tried to think of some facts about the animal, but nothing really impressing or interesting came to mind. "I-I don't really know a whole lot about them.." he admitted, getting a little flustered. Nim normally knew things, but I guess when it came to obscure animals he was at a loss. Well, no matter. They could work around that, "Why don't we look up some papers and articles on the internet? They'll probably have loads of facts on Gharials."
"Scoot over for a sec." Nim prodded Lukas' arm before moving himself in front of the laptop. He minimized the Microsoft Word tab and opened up Chrome. Nim typed "gharial facts and information" into the search bar and hit the 'Enter' key on the keyboard. A number of pages soon came into view. "Okay, we can choose a few different articles and whatnot.. and.. read them all!" he said it with a lot of enthusiasm. Nim had to resist the urge to let out a giggle "The longer the article the better." he grinned, clicking one of the links. 'http://www.arkive.org/gharial/gavialis-gangeticus/' it sounded promising, but he knew he couldn't set his expectations very high; especially when it was only the first article they were reading.
"Do you want to read it together, or.." Nim hasn't ever really worked together on a project with a partner before. If they ever did group projects he'd ask if he could do it alone. It seemed to work most of the time. This was a new experience, to some degree. 'I could probably finish reading the article in a few mintues.. three maybe? I don't know how long it would take Lukas to read it though.. I've been known to be a really fast reader.. I might end up leaving him behind.' he'd have to take things slow then. "I'm a pretty fast reader, I can skim it if you want. To.. y'know pass time." he had suddenly made things feel very awkward. 'Things aren't supposed to feel awkward.. right..?'
What was making Nim feel like this? Was he embarrassed of reading out loud in front of Lukas? 'I would turn into a stuttering mess.. but there has to be something more than that.' did he like Lukas, more than a friend would? 'That's always a possibility.. I'm gay as hell.' he thought. Nim being gay wasn't really a secret in his household, why would it be? Why should it be? He had two gay moms. When he told them, they were very chill with it. They may have also been a little too eager for Nim to bring a boy home with him. Wait, did his parents really believe that he and Lukas were.. no. That couldn't be it. 'I'm going to have a talk with them whenever Lukas leaves..' he told himself, yes that was what he was going to do.
'We're just one big, happy.. gay.. family apparently.' the thought seemed to be amusing to the teen, at least Nim had decided on a senior quote. But.. if he did in fact like Lukas.. wasn't Lukas straight? 'Ugh.. why do all the good ones appear to be straight..' but maybe he was Bi? Pan? Maybe that was stretching it a bit too far. 'I guess I'll have to wait and see..' Wait? It sounded ridiculous but that's what he'd always been doing from the very start. 'He'll probably never come out.' the thought made him feel a little sad, but then he mentally shoved those thoughts away. 'No. Bad. I can't think negatively. Besides.. Lukas is in my room. If I started getting sad now he won't even know what I'm sad about.' he started reading the article. He'd been wasting too much time inside his own head. Lukas better at least invite Nim to Lukas' wedding.
