Then I Quit [BL]

Pork Buns

Freddie swings the doors of the library open and rips Ralph off of me.

In addition, Freddie punches him on the left jaw as Jelly, Freddie's girlfriend, tends to my trauma.

"Are you okay?" Her voice is soft and fills with worries. I nodded because that was the only thing I could do.

"Okay Mr Funny, you went too far," Freddie's voice is occupied by the devil of wrath.

Ralph is taller than Freddie and simply look over Freddie's shoulder to see me. His face is expressionless but the color on his face details otherwise.

Without saying anything, Ralph turns and walks away from us never looking back to see as if we are thots.

"Oh my god!" Freddie kneels beside Jelly, "I knew this was going to happen, agh! This is my fault!"

"What?" Jelly asks concerns for me. "You know this was going to happen?"

"Yeah," He looks at us with a face that says Isn't it obvious?

"Agh, I don't care at the moment," Jelly's phone vibrates, "Tell me later. I need to go home right now."

They kiss and then she leaves to her protective dungeon. All the while, the devil of greed slowly leaks out of my heart that was locked away by friendship.

"So...are we still going to my house to finish Math homework?" Freddie smiles as he waits for me to stand up.

"Yeah, but..." then I stop myself because I don't want Freddie to think I'm dumb for not seeing Ralph's intentions.

"But what?"

"It's nothing, I just remembered that your mom will be making pork buns today," I get up and put my backpack on my shoulder.

"Oh damn! I almost forgot about that. Thanks bro, we better hurry or that stupid Glenn gonna finish them all," He tugs at my elbow and begins running out of the school.

As I sit in Freddie's car going to his place, he tells me, "Whenever you see Ralph nearby, just run to me okay?"

I laugh, "Sure dad."

"I mean it Gabe. Nobody else will protect you like I would," he takes his eyes off the road to make me promise him so.

I turn his head with my left palm, "Okay, now pay attention to the road or you'll be the one who'll kill me."

Freddie harshly combs through my hair with his hand just so he'll pull out a pinky promise.

"Damn. You still treat me like a child," I laugh and then still do the pinky promise anyway.

When we get to the house, Glenn is already chowing down on the pork buns like the Cookie Monster-yes, it's messy.

"Hey, do you mind Glenn? Mom and I clean later so I'll appreciate it if you'll eat your age," Freddie picks up Glenn's backpack and put it off the kitchen floor and take it to the living room.

"Yeah, Sorry. I just love pork buns," he smiles at me sarcastically yet sincerely at the same time.

"Then don't fucking eat so wasteful," Freddie retorts annoyingly. He get back to the kitchen and offers me a bun, "Here, takes as many as you want."

I pick just one.

"Oh come on. Don't be shy Gabby, you're like family," Glenn jokes but Freddie is not happy.

"Where's Ellie and Carly?" Dan asks as he puts out some more pork buns in front of us. "Oh hi Gabriel."

"How long will your mom call me Gabriel?" I whispers to Freddie, but he just smiles and shrugs his stiff shoulders.

"Ah, how's Jelly, my little brother?" Glenn swallows another bun.

"And this is why he can't get a girlfriend," Freddie rolls his eyes and goes into the kitchen with his mother.

I just giggle internally trying my best to not offend anyone.

"Gabe, why does my brother hate me?"

"Um, I don't think he hates you...more like dislike-"

"But why?"

"Um, I don't know? Maybe because I'm not him?" I sarcastically shove Glenn's curiosity to my red wrists.

"Are you okay?" He points at them.

"Ah," I try to laugh it off, "Yeah, I'm okay."

"That little brother of mine did this didn't he?" All the features in his face come together but they quickly return to their usual spots.

"Ah, I guess this can be a conversation starter. See you later Gabe," Glenn grabs two buns in his hand, goes into the living to get his backpack, and climbs the staircase into his room.

For all those while, it was as if the devil of lust was eating Glenn's eyes. Could there be something there that wasn't there before?
