FAIR LOVE AND WAR

ed lips made him look so cute and desirable to the merman. The thought of his face got Alec's cheek flaring up. "You're all smiles...you found a beautiful mermaid". Basil

only term as shocked... **** "I bet you want to kiss me". Simon smirked. "Shut the fuck up Simon... I'm not gay". Daniel said unperturbed at how close he was to the teenager. He might be right to call him gay coz his sexuality is something Daniel hasn't explored. He likes to think of himself as heterosexual and sometimes pansexual when he sees guys shirtless in the locker room but he was careful enough not to stare at anything longer than a second. "Of course you're, that explains why you bully me around, always wanting your face close to mine. I bet you want to kiss me". Simon passed Daniel a smug look. "Yes, Daniel kiss the fag already". Justin, Daniel's friend who he didn't know was already in school shouted out to him from the other side of the school. Justin had seen the drama that was displayed in front of him. "Hell no". Daniel raised a punch and punched Simon on the stomach so that he had to fall on his knees and comfort his hurting stomach. "I did that not to identify as gay". Daniel thought to himself, he quickly regretted punching the teenager on the stomach coz he watched him sprawled out on the floor cursing under his breath.

It's just you, Jasper, and I, just like the old times, it has been a long we did anything fun". He pouted desperately seeking Daniels's consent. "Will your girlfriend be coming"? Daniel asked. "No Jennifer wouldn't be coming. It's a boy's night out". Justin smiled. "Ok". Daniel said. "Is that a yes"? Justin nudged Daniel's shoulders. "Of course, it's a yes, dumb ass". Daniel equally nudged his shoulders and we both walked to class. ***** "Who's gay". King Optum Alec's Dad asked looking at both boys whose expressions could only be termed as shocked. "No one". Alec rushed to say, his words coming out as a stuttering mess. "You guys looked to be so keen". King Optum said looking at Basil and Alec suspiciously. "I don't believe you both". Optum added. "Of course, you wouldn't. Basil was just teaching me a new word he learned from the humans the other day". "Isn't that right Basil". Alec took his gaze to Basil for him to back him up. "Yes, that's what I was just teaching the prince". Basil stuttered looking less believable. "What does the word mean". King Opt
