FIngering the trigger

Jul 04, 2011 22:23

In the back of his mind Koel knew he had slept through his last class. He’d just about jolted out of his skin at the sound of the lunch bell, blinking out of his daze both confused and rattled. Though his eyes hadn’t closed, and he was sitting up straight, he’d been completely lost to the world.  He hadn’t even heard a word the teacher had said all ( Read more... )

Koel slid gently into the seat at Harlan's front, sliding his bag up onto the table. He didn't even have time to pull out his stuff before Harlan was reaching over the small distance between them on the desk's surface. Koel tried to jerk back, but Harlan was fast. Instead the teen focused on trying not to flinch as Harlan's hands curled around his jaw.

The question caught him completely off guard.

He stared across the table at Harlan, his mouth dropping open a bit in surprise.

He didn't know what to say.

Usually with a limp or a couple of bruised ribs, he could just blame his injuries on riding. But getting a black eye from a horse just wasn't that plausible.

So he just said the first thing that popped into his mind. "I fell." Stupid! Koel was cursing himself the moment the words left his mouth. Too late to take them back now. He scrambled for further explanation, straining when nothing came to mind. He needed to come up with better excuses for his appearance. Finally after a painstakingly awkward silent pause he continued, ( ... )

"Yeah, yeah that should work fine." Koel smiled up at Harlan as the older teen moved to stand. They wouldn't be meeting at lunch again, which was a bit of a shame really. It was nice to have company while he was eating, even if it was still work. He tucked his books away, working his way out of his chair and moving to stand ( ... )

Once they settled into studying Hazel fell silent at their side, his nose buried in his book. He didn't make a sound throughout the visit, just sat and read. Every so often he'd peek up at Harlan from over the edge of his book, a sort of curious expression on the little boy's face. Once they were finished for the night Koel packed up their stuff and bid his adieu. He walked away with Hazel in tow, the little boy peaking over his shoulder at Harlan and waving as they left ( ... )

"Jesus," Koel breathed as Harlan's fist connected with the corner of the locker above his head. It was a near daily occurance, but that didn't stop Koel from starting slightly every time the other teen did it. He took a small breath, opening his locker before turning to face Harlan, shaking his head at the other teen. "One day you're gonna scare the soul right out of me Harlan, ah swear ( ... )

Koel seemed to hesitate slightly as Harlan led him out into the school parking lot. He'd never been in Harlan's car before, and he really wasn't one to leave campus during school hours. But hey, it was lunch. Technically he could go wherever he wanted. And the promise of good coffee was incredibly, incredibly tempting. So that's how he found himself hauling his ass up and into the cab of Harlan's sturdy old truck.

"This is yours?" Koel asked, letting out a low whistle as he ran his hand across the front of the dash. It was a nice looking truck, dependable. He could picture it on a ranch, or tearing up the bumpy Texan hillside. He couldn't help but grin, taking in the car with unbridled excitement. Man oh man he could not wait until he was old enough to learn to drive. Not like he didn't like horseback riding, just that it was hard to bring a Geldling into school with him ( ... )
