1 Chapter 1

Ray, a boy with a height of 5'9, standing tall with proud shoulders, messy brown hair complimenting his brown eyes, with fair skin, making him look like a model, his body build is not buff type but still he gives off strong vibe.

Rome is petite boy, he has pale and smooth skin making him look like a girl, his dark blue eyes and soft lips makes him look cute, his beeline honey hair, always combed nicely, giving him a smart type look, which he absoultely is.

These two boys have been best friends since childhood, their parents are also very close friends and business partner, their parents took care of them till they were in middle school and then they moved abroad for work, giving each of them their own apartment in the same building.

================================

It was way early in the morning around 5:00 am when there was loud knocking heard, a boy was continously knocking on the door of apartment 04, of a old building down the silver street.

The knocking was done by Rome and the owner of the room was his bestfriend Ray, this was thier normal routine, Rome would wake up early and then go to Ray's house to wake him up, so that they both can get ready for school. Today was the day they both are starting Highschool life.

Rome's banging made Ray groan in frustration as he got up from his bed. He went to open the door to see Rome standing infront of him grinning. Sometimes Ray wonders where does Rome's energy come from to be smiling like that in the morning. Sighing he moved aside and let his friend enter the house, he really wanted to go to bed and sleep, but he knew that if he did that, Rome might kill him.

Rome pushed his way into the house,"Ray please repair your door bell, my hand hurts from all those banging."

When Rome said 'hurt' Ray immediately went to him and grabbed his hands,"Are you okay? Does it hurt a lot?"

Rome's hand has turned to tint of red but it was not something to be worried about. Rome chuckled,"Stupid. Its not something to be that worried about. I am fine really."

Ray sighed,"Today I am fixing that god damn doorbell."

Rome patted Ray's shoulder,"But for now let's get ready. I am going back to my room to get dressed and you too get ready."

After a hour, that is around 6:10 am did both of them got ready.

Ray and Rome started walking towards their school. The walk took around half an hour.

The walk was mostly silent, a comfortable one.

They both arrived infront of the school. Ray looked at the big gate of the School then at Rome and said,"Rome Let's conquer this school!"

Rome punched his fist in the air, up high and said,"Yes, Let's march Forward!!"

After this they both started laughing but it was soon interrupted when a voice came. It was girl's voice.

Both of them looked behind and saw it was Lacy.

Lacy is Ray's girlfriend from middle school. She is a beauty and every boy and even girl in the middle school admired her. Only one person was the exception and it was Rome.

At first Rome didn't have problems with her but then Lacy started to do bad things to him. Things that were not visible to naked eye. Rome couldn't even tell Ray about it because he didn't to create a problem between the couple.

Lacy went to stand besides Ray,"Hi baby~ I missed you so much." Ray chuckled,"Aw I missed you too sweetie."

Rome's heart ached seeing the couple being all lovey-dovey.

Rome decided to walk into the school but was stopped when a hand grabbed his arm,"Where are you going?"

Rome lip's forned a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes,"Going inside. You can come in later with your girlfriend."

Ray frowned,"Let's all go in together. Why should we come in later? Right Lacy?"

Lacy forced a sweet smile,"Yes why should we? Let's go in."

With this they all went inside the school. Luckily or unluckily they all were in the same class.

After they entered the classroom, Ray decided to sit on the second last bench of middle row with Lacy and Rome sat Behind Ray.

After a minute or two a middle aged woman enterted the class,"Good Morning Students. My name is Manry and I am your homeroom teacher. I am also going to teach you Mathematics. If you have any trouble come find me."

Every student nodded and they soon began their lectures.

The time passed by quickly and it was already break time.

Rome saw Lacy and Ray being all sweet to each other and he felt like a third wheel. He needed a break. As days passed by it was getting harder for Rome to control his feelings towards Ray.

I have controlled my feelings till now, let's hold on a bit longer. The feelings will soon fade away.

Rome stood up from his desk and decided to go to restroom to wash his face.

After Rome left the Classroom a group of guys came in laughing.

"I have fixed a bucket on top of the door to Boy's restroom. Now we just have to wait for someone to open the door."

"I just saw a petite guy walking towards the washroom."

"Isn't he in our class?"

"Yes he is. Now we have to wait for him to enter the classroom all soaking wet."

Ray heard their conversation and looked behind to see Rome was not there. He got up and ran towards the restroom.

Lacy called out to him,"Dear~ Where are you going?"

Ray didn't answer her and just ran towards the restroom.

Rome placed his hand on the handle of the door and Ray grabbed his hand,"No Rome!"

But unfortunately it was too late they both got drenched as the water poured all over them and they resulted in slipping and falling on the ground.

Rome at the bottom and Ray on top, their lips touching.

Rome could feel his heart breaking out of his rib cage.

Ray got up and Rome too stood up. They both looked at each other in all awkwardness.
