stefan , dealing with @scarfwere :
neil / nathaniel , dealing with isaac :
nonchalant compliance, he figured was as good as anything. It was still different from a flat out rejection. He’d had plenty of those. And even through the obvious indifference in the other boy, Isaac found an excuse to smile. To cound this moment, however small, as one of the rare wins he could have in the year. He was right after all ─ new kids didn’t last very long here. And if he was smart, it would be better to cut his losses now and move on.
Obviously, he wasn’t.
He figured, it would be some nice change, at the least. To know there was one other person at school that didn’t mind if he sat beside them or not.
Fingers combed through his curly hair; trying to unravel the right words to make what he thinks make sense without it being creepy. Maybe Stefan would understand. Maybe even he felt it too. That knowing feeling of standing in front of the same mirror reflecting the same thing. But he bit his tongue and swallowed it.
Shrugging instead.
“ Dunno. Maybe I just like you. “
Even after he said it, he wasn’t sure if that was worse or better. But at least it was slightly true.
𝗡𝗢𝗡𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗦 thrown out and about , strung with indifference towards the creeping anxiety that slides upwards within stefan’s chest ; one step closer to choking him from the confusion and fear muddled in the back of his throat. ‘ maybe ’ pertains to uncertainty , one he hates and accustomed to , while ' like ’ associates with the blooms ‘pon cheek and wrath faced in weeks.
obviously, this is going to be a 𝗕𝗔𝗗 𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗔 .
‟ ͏𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁. ❜ straightforward without eyes looking straight forward , body tensing uncontrollably as he crosses his arms; his figure as if embracing himself from an unexpected hostile attack. there persists bitterness in the pit of his stomach , annoyed how isaac can just say whatever he wants without repercussions while stefan won’t ―― can never. ‘ i don’t get it ’ - - are the words stuck with tongue held back and instead had to give a response so uncaring , but then again , stefan is supposed to be 𝗗𝗘𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗗 , 𝗣𝗔𝗦𝗦𝗜𝗩𝗘 , 𝗡𝗨𝗠𝗕 ... a boy whose way too different from nathaniel. ( or maybe they’re not so different, after all; sporting similar bruises, broken bones and patches of skin healed and cut all over. )
‟ ͏ ―― 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 ... 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝗜 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗜 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘄𝗮𝘆. ❜
