Chapter 30: Loser Like Me

Chapter Summary: They would fight back and defend themselves.  He would do that small confrontation as well.

'Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
So everyone can hear
Hit me with the words you got and knock me down
Baby, I don't care
Keep it up, I'm tunin' up and figure out
You wanna be
A loser like me...'

"This has been the longest film ever recorded." I asked.

"Logistics. Eight hundred fifty-seven hours. Thirty-seven days, seventeen hours," Allex said answering my question and looked at the paper he was holding, "What is the longest Tv program by episode count?"

"Guiding Light, American show. Eighteen thousand two hundred sixty-two counts," I answered remembering the numbers. I grinned at him, "What is the longest anime by episode count?"

"Sazae-san with the number of seven thousand five hundred forty-two and counting," He grinned back at me, "Who is the longest living in the world?"

"Kane Tanaka. She's one hundred fifteen years old," I stared at my taller friend, "What was the deadliest natural disaster that happened?"

"1931 China floods with the range of one million to four million casualties," He answered swiftly, "Who was the longest person lived in the world?"

"Jeanne Calment who lived for one hundred twenty-two years, one hundred sixty-four days," My mind answered, "It was a major conflagration that swept through the central parts of London in 1666."

"The Great Fire of London, from the second to fifth of September," Allex replied looking at me, "This was the longest tennis match record."

"John Isner/Nicholas Mahut with the duration of eleven hours and five minutes," I grinned at him," What is the longest word in English?"

He grinned back at me before answering, "Supercalifragelisticexpialidocious."

I raised an eyebrow at him which he chuckled as reaction.

"Just kidding. It's Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. In other words silicosis or lung disease."

"Haha, you are so funny Double L." I grinned a tooth-gap one at him.

"You just called me Double L," He said as if I just came from a different world and called his name weirdly, "You just called me Double L!"

"Well, I--"

"My friend just called me Double L!" He shouted making the students who were walking near our table look at us, "Double D called me Double L!"

"Oh my goodness!" I rubbed my temple. Allex just kept making silly noises. I ignored him as I looked at my reviewer.

"Why are all the questions have to do with the longest?" Allex suddenly asked after he calmed down. He went back reading when he noticed that I was doing the same thing.

"As far as I know, the one that we reviewed wasn't half of the longest things from the book that we have to remember. History was challenging but we're doing good."

"I don't think I can remember everything."

"I highly doubt it, Allex." I said confidently.

"Yeah, right," My tall friend said. He leaned closer to me, "Hey, Double D?"

"Yes?"

"What are we doing here?"

I raised an eyebrow at him, "Studying, if that isn't obvious."

"Duh, I mean why here," He said extending his arms to his side, "In the oval!"

I sighed as he emphasized the place, "This place is relaxing, don't you think?"

"And so is the library. And don't deny it. Both of us are library people," He continued when he sensed that I was about to interrupt him. He was right. It was really weird of me to choose this place to study but still I invited him.

"Spill it out."

"Spill what out?" I asked him.

"Come on, Double D. I am not different to you, am I? I know that something's bothering you so say it."

"Allex--"

"Don't start it!"

"Listen--"

He refused to when he mocked by singing a Paramore song.  My dear,  I didn't even know the name of it. I looked at him and sighed. Allex was being childish once again but I knew that he wouldn't stop until I confided in him.

"Alright, I'll tell you," I bit my lower lip as I leaned closer to him after he finally stopped singing, "I think I might have... insecurities."

"Insecurities?" His eyebrows twitched as he looked at me.

I nodded before I looked down at my lap. His curious expression was giving me an awkward feeling. I never had this kind of conversation before, "W-with my boyfriend."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I am not certain. I fear that I won't be able to satisfy his needs," I could feel my cheeks hot after confessing that, "I am not even sure how I lack in that department."

I waited for my friend to say something but it didn't come. When he remained silent, my eyes found him blushing.

"Y-you two... did you..."

My eyebrows furrowed at his lack of words. Realization suddenly hit me and I immediately blushed. I hit his arm, "W-we have never--well, we haven't reached that part. Oh dear! I don't even know how to--why are we talking about it?!"

"You opened it up," He defended before he leaned closer to me, "So what is it?"

I couldn't help the groan from my throat, "You confusticate me."

"What do you mean? I do not." He said in a winsome manner. Then he turned serious, "Really Double D? What's bothering you?"

Before I could answer, a hand hit me from my head. I almost shoved my face on the ground that we were sitting if it weren't for Allex to catch me before I could. I turned to my side to see a few hockey players laughing at us.

"Look at the losers spending time together," said the the one in the middle that probably hit me, "In the field."

"Yeah," The jock to his left looked at Allex and frowned, "Come on, dude! You are still hanging with the queer? I am seriously doubting about your sexuality now."

I stood up and dust my pants before looking at them, "I don't see a problem why he shouldn't hang out with me. If you have anything to bellyache, I am afraid that will be gone down to the gutter," My eyes found Allex' and smiled, "Allex and I are friends."

"Friends?"

"With benefits?"

Our eyes widened when they suggested that. The hockey players cringed in disgust as they moved backwards from us. They made such noises the other could hear.

"You guys are so disgusting!"

"I can't believe your disease is starting to spread!"

"How did you hide yourself this long?"

I couldn't help but answer the last one, "I didn't hide myself. For the record, I recently discovered myself."

As long as I said that, the jock in the middle pushed me hard but not hard enough for me to fall on the ground.

"Stay away, you f**got!" He screamed as he glared at me, "Don't you dare come near me, you assanine--"

"Don't you ever call me that!" I interrupted before he could finish.

"You know what?" Allex called standing up after being quiet for so long, "You can run your mouth, insult us, knock us down," He walked towards us making his mocking smirk that was plastered on his face, "We don't really care dude."

I frowned at him trying to get his attention. He stood in front of me but ignoring me all the same. I didn't show it but I was actually panicking. His taunting words would really get us into trouble.

"You want to know why?" My good friend asked the jock in the middle. I tugged at his sleeve but he wouldn't budge.

"What is that?" The jock dared leaning closer to Allex.

The basketball player glared back before he answered him, "Because no matter what you say, you always want to be, losers like us!"

To my surprise, he pushed the jock in the middle really hard bringing the other two down. In the midst of seconds, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me to run to the opposite way.

"So long losers!"

It took a full thirty seconds before I was able to grasp what was really happening. Despite him dragging me along, I finally exclaimed at him, "Are you out of your mind? You deliberately provoked them! Why in the world did you do that?!" I turned behind me and shrieked when I saw the jocks following us, "They are really mad now!"

"Hush! Because it was fun," He turned and grinned at me before he looked behind me, "Now run for your life if you don't want to get caught!"

"And whose fault do you think that was?" I asked but complied seeing that there was no other option but to run.

Allex turned to every corner we could find hoping to lose the chasers away. I even hurt myself to my lockers that we passed by but I ignored it. As we ran on our merrily way on the third floor, I looked to the view on my left side. I could see the view from below. My eyes widened when our pursuers where actually running randomly below the building. An idea suddenly popped into my mind when I saw a pot ahead of us. I pulled us to a stop and called Allex' attention. I moved away from Allex and slowly walked closer to the pot.

"What are you doing? They could be behind us?"

"No, they are not. I saw them below just now," I examined the pot and saw also saw some soil dirt in it. I gave Allex my grin as I gestured the jocks before looking down at the pot. He got my meaningful gesture and together, we turned the pot upside down and let the dirt fall to their heads when they stood exactly below us. I resisted making noises while my tall friend was trying not to laugh. Oh my dear, I was doing these things in Eddy's way. Before the jocks could look up, a teacher approach them. Allex grabbed my wrist and pulled me once again.

"Come on! Come on!" He whispered-shout as he dragged me. I couldn't stop my giggle at this time. We ran to a few corners until we ended up in a storage room. We both collapsed on the cold floor. After a few seconds of grasping for breath, we started to laugh.

"That was totally hilarious!" Allex commented.

"It never registered in my mind that I could do something like that!" I said resting myself on my elbows, "I think I am inheriting Eddy's talents."

"That's genuine!"

I grinned awkwardly at him, "Though we have to be extra precautious from now on."

He grinned back, "Right," His grin changed into something serious, "Double D, if you have problems with your boyfriend, just talk it all out with him, okay?"

I gave him a genuine smile, "I will, Allex. Thank you."

We stayed in the room for a couple of minutes before we finally calmed down. We silently walked out from the storage room and carefully made our way back to my dorm. When we reached my dorm, Allex waved goodbye but not before saying good luck to our history exam tomorrow. I did the same before making my way to my own unit.

I knew that I shouldn't be surprised that Kevin could come to my dorm unit without being spotted but seeing him inside my dorm unit still surprised me. He was sitting on my bed tossing a tennis ball in his hand. His expression was serious as if he was concentrating on something else. I stood behind the door just staring at him. Allex would have suggested that I should talk to him but I didn't expect that it was this soon.

"We need to talk."

My eyes dilated when he verbalized what my brain was thinking. He looked at me with a serious expression on his face, waiting for me to say anything. I hesitated before slowly walking towards him and sat on the bed next to him.

"Clearly we do. You just walked out on me yesterday without explaining anything." I voiced out, not helping the bitter tone hinted from my voice.

"I felt rejected Edd. How would you expect me to react?"

"Has it crossed your mind that I may not be ready about it? In fact, everything is new to me." I looked at him frowning this time.

"Everything is new to me too," Kevin stared back at me, "but I can't deny my own needs. I need you."

Biting my lower lip, I couldn't hide the blush that was forming on my face. I might be new to all of this but his expressions would tell exactly what part I should be doing.

As his boyfriend, I had to do that part properly.

Mustering enough courage, I grabbed his hand and made him look at me.

"Kevin, you are more familiar in a relationship that I am aware of. You could have explained things to me before you do the action. Just like," I looked away and gulped before I continued, "just like what you did to me... i-in the bathroom."

I waited for him to say anything but he didn't until he gripped my hand, "You were afraid, weren't you?"

I was about to deny that but my fingers of my hand that he was gripping were actually shaking. Blinking, I looked at him and smiled weakly, "I always am, Kevin. I always will."

My boyfriend studied me for a few seconds before he raised his other hand and grabbed my neck. He leaned closer and kissed my forehead. I closed my eyes when I felt his warm lips there. I wanted to savor that feeling.

"I am sorry, Edd." He whispered as he leaned his own forehead to mine. I gripped his hand tight to answer him. Words weren't important at that moment. For that moment, we both understood each other.

The next morning came really fast. I was in a good mood. Not even Ed and Eddy could ruin that for me. We were walking on our way to the front gate while Eddy was speaking non-stop. I couldn't help but laugh with him.

He was really funny no matter which angle you'd look.

"I have to go to my locker, I'll see you in the classroom." I called out as I walked away from them.

"Don't be late, sockhead!"

I scoffed as I continued walking. As if that would happen. The way to my locker wasn't that far. I immediately opened my locker and grabbed the books that I needed for my first period. Closing it, I fixed the books in my hands and turned around.

Only to be pushed back against my locker.

Hands were slammed to the sides of my head, making me close my eyes temporarily. When I realized what was really happening, I shot up to reprimand the harsh behaviour but only to be stunned. In front of me was the last person that I wanted to see.

The bane of my existence. The almost stealer of my innocence.

I lost my voice when I saw his smirk.

"Miss me, dork?"

Done! No need to guess who came back, right? Tell me your thoughts guys. Domo.

Reviews please!!!
