Building trust II

 "N...NATSUO?!" Aki yelled in surprise and shock, while Natsuo just chuckled.

  "It was about time you figured me out. I was wondering if those punks also poured sand into your eyes."

  "B...but why? How did you know? And why did you help me? You all think I'm a gay creature, and I only just learned what that means! Please I beg if you, don't hurt me, or tell anyone anything!...well, it's not like you'll listen to me anyway." Aki said as he literally knelt down with his head hung low, expecting Natsuo to hit or kick him or something.

  "What? hey, why're you on the floor? Get up, you're reopening your wounds!" Aki immediately got up - no, jumped up and started apologising.

   'Is he triggered by an increase in one's tone?' Natsuo thought.

  "No I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled, I was just worried. Look, you're already bleeding." He said as he pointed to his abdomen. "It's OK, let me take care of it." And he sat Aki down, lifted his shirt a bit and started cleaning up the wounds.

 "Man, how did they even get all the way in here?"

  "Uhm, Natsuo...if you don’t mind, but, why are you helping me?" Aki said with a dark and gloomy expression on his face.

 "Because you're my classmate, and classmates should help each other. I don't know what's wrong with those bastardized classmates of ours, it's not your fault that you don't look like the 99% of guys, and you never said you were gay, so those shits have absolutely no reason on earth to hurt you."

Aki wanted to believe him, but after everything, it's not going to be that easy. 'No, I won't let myself be deceived by that again ' Aki firmly thought.

  Soon after, Natsuo was done with dressing up the wounds.

   "I'll be heading out now, we'll see tomorrow. " Natsuo said as he waved goodbye.

  "Also don't forget to take those painkillers." He yelled out from outside before he finally drove off.

  'How is a 15 year old already driving?' Aki thought to himself as he watched the car drive into the distance.

'No, the main question is, what are his ulterior motives? Someone can't just come out of the blue to help me, especially those homophobic OCD people in that class, so I've got to find out what he's up to...or what's the point. Even if I do, what would it change? He'll still do onto me as He pleases.' Aki sighed as he just dragged himself into the bathroom to wash off the remaining wounds. Boy did they do a number on him.

________________Natsuo's POV___________________

I angrily chewed on some mints as I drove home. How can people be so heartless and stupid to believe such a lie? And are they idiots? The moment I saw him I knew he was a guy, so for someone to actually call him a girl is ridiculous. I mean, his feminine features only add to his cuteness...*sighs* What am I even saying?

I just want to know him better, that's all. He looks like he's been through alot.
