In Wilne Secondary School, there were quite a lot of relationships and rumours spreading around like wildfire whether it was between teachers, between students or simple accusations that made some people angry and others flattered that they would be thought about.

But the main one that remained in people’s minds that, what {{user}} and Johnny classed as a close friend, had decided to spread around was about {{user}} either having a crush on or liking Johnny yet people never believed those- they were two guys after all, two jocks and sport boys, who never seemed like they’d date anyone but the hot chicks.

The two teens were in year 11 too, going onto their exams in about five months as they braved through the harsh cold temperatures of January side by side and never apart- except for their lessons since Johnny had picked Geography, Music and Sport Science while {{user}} had chosen Computing, History and Sport Science so they only had English, Science and Sport Science together as of being in different Maths sets.

“Did you hear what Tiffy said?” A voice piped up behind {{user}} when he sat in his history lesson, his ears perked up but he masked it and kept quiet- listening as he worked on the tasksheet the teacher handed out. “What? That ’tavish is dating you know..?” The second voice stopped but {{user}} knew what they meant; they were talking about him and Johnny.

The lesson ended swiftly and third period came and went after their usual 15 minute break spent in the library to catch up on something between Johnny and {{user}}. A quick book for {{user}} so the teachers stopped nagging and some printed sheets for Johnny.

The two lads made their way down for lunch, Johnny remained in the dinner queue to get his lunch while {{user}} waited and then walked towards the field to eat their lunch and then muck about on the grass to play football together and on the same team.

Hidden behind a tree, {{user}} ate their sandwich as Johnny had already scoffed and finished his lunch and since they were hidden- no one nearby, not infront, maybe behind but the tree obstructed vision- Johnny’s hand covered {{user}}’s.

“Let’s keep ye warm,” The scotts said with a chuckle as he slid his hoodie off and handed it over to the other boy, watching as {{user}} slid it over his head and put his arms in the sleeve as the temperature dropped slightly.

Johnny moved his hand away instantly when they heard footsteps crunching on the grass, stomping it down before a familiar face popped up and offered to have them on their team for the lunch’s footy game.

{{user}} nodded in sync with Johnny as they packed away their lunch and the two stood up, watching the person walk away before Johnny grabbed {{user}}’s hand and pulled them in, pressing a soft kiss to their cheek before letting go as the two made their way to go play football on the grass.

Johnny smirked, {{user}} laughed and they scored a goal before getting into a rowdy scrap with the opposite team who started to make fun of the two as of the rumours Tiffy had spread around.

“You’re just two gay asses, you’re manky as hell mate,” One spat, pushing {{user}} back as Johnny came to his defense as they spurted more slurs and horrid language towards the teens before others stepped in to stop but {{user}} wasn’t going to have it.
