Kao

I was running late for my Photography 303 elective class with 2 medium size boxes of macaroons on both hands.

We needed to bring raw, handy subjects for our final portfolio, depending on the theme we get to pick.

Que, my bestfriend/partner for this activity and I picked parisian pastries and since the cake we thought of using was uncommissioned, we had to settle for the macaroons I saw on my way to the university.

I gave out a heavy sigh.

I had never walked this fast in my life. I only got about 20 minutes before the class started and I was still some 10 minutes away from the Communication Arts building. If I continued my pace tho, I was confident I could get in before Prof. Maek locked the door to the lab.

I was about to cross the pathway towards the ComArts Building when I heard an ominous epithet.

"Woah! Coming through, out of the way! Shvt! Get away!"

I only had the chance to look over my shoulder before I was shoved towards the pavement.

My knees went on the cemented platform as my macaroons went on exploding all over the pathway getting mashed by a skate board.

"Shia! Dude, are you okay!?!"

I heard a bunch of people asked and sorrounded my assailant. Mashing my already mashed macaroons in the process.

"Fvck this shvt!"

I might have said it loudly because I saw eight pair of eyes turned to me.

"Did you just curse at us?"

It was Yatch, College of Engineering math wizard and a certified trouble maker. Who wasn't in this group, anyway?

I groaned. Oh, God!

I stood up and dusted my self off. I felt a smarting pain on both knees but I ignored it, instead, I took my bag and tried saving some of the macaroons I saw that were salvageable.

"Are you seriously ignoring, us?"

Nick, the univesity's top notch debater from Social Science asked with a hint of amusement.

I looked around and realized that there were already a lot of students trying to get a piece of what was happening. Cameras all around, trying to get the best angle to deliver the hottest news about XXX University's hottest bunch's recent escapade.

Nice. Just about right. This is definitely what I need.

I checked on my wristwatch and realized that I only had ten minutes left before my class starts.

"Hey, fag! Look at us when we're talking to you. Don't you have any manners?"

Pra, the guy from engineering who I just recently saw hanging with the group, interjected.

I looked at him. The nerve of this guy to call me the f word!

"What? What are you looking at huh, Fag, didn't get enough fvcking last night?"

I seriously still didn't get why bigots the likes of Pra able to sleep at night, really.

"Yeah, bummer, your dad, monopolized all of the boys!"

I saw him flared up and launched himself at me when, Pete, the 'leader' of the group and my assailant stopped him.

"Pra, that's enough!"

"Enough!?! Did you hear what he said about my dad?"

Pete smirked and passed the skateboard to Pra.

"You insulted him first."

Pra gaped at him while their friends snickered on the sidelines.

"You. What's your name?"

Pete regarded me. I was too annoyed to respond that I readied myself to scurry.
But the people around were quick to gang up on me and closed every possible exit. I had no choice but to face Pete.

"Look, you just ruined 50% of my final grade, you can't expect me to be cordial about it, do you!?!"

Pete looked at me. Amused. Then he chuckled. He looked at me from head to foot. I furrowed at him. What was he playing at?

"You know, for someone...effeminate, you're quite, snarky. I like you."

I rolled my eyes.

"I just gave you a compliment, isn't there something you want to say in response?"

Here we go with the superiority thing.

"What did you say about me again?"

He smirked once more.

"I said, for someone like you--- you seemed quite gutsy."

I smiled and took his hand that was on my shoulder down to mine.

Someone like me?

"Well, in that case Mr. Vihokratana, since you already said that you like me, will you be my boyfriend?"

First time since I knew Pete that he was quiet. Even everyone around seemed to have lost their capability to think that I was able to walk through their shocked faces.

I lost my macaroons but I was able to secure my pride. Nobody messes with Kao!

Not even the hottest guy in school who was now looking at me in squint as I marched towards my class.

I didn't mean to, but I shivered.

Why did I feel like I just started a war for myself?

A/N

OffGun is my ultimate OTP but TayNew is the bomb! 💥💙 and since I already have a favorite OffGun fanfic that I reread every so often, that's why I let them rest.

Now, just like EarnPete, I haven't found any PeteKao fanfic to my liking so I'm taking matters into my own hand.

This is my take. I hope you like it. 😊

I want comments if you may. 🙏

I try to update everyday.*Edited
