Spiders.
William hates spiders.
They make him scream. The only thing he hates more than spiders is screaming. Even of he won’t admit it, he hates screaming because he screams like a girl. You know those high pitched shrill screams? Yeah. That’s his scream, and the reason he hates screaming.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!”
A shrill scream echoes through the room causing all heads to face the back of the classroom.
“Did I scare you?! Did I? Did I?!” The dark haired boy asks jumping up and down.
“G-gabe I h-hate you! D-don’t do th-that!” William chokes out as he sobs. “You k-know I hate it w-when you j-jump o-out and scare me!”
The Latino boy’s joy evaporated and was quickly replaced with guilt.
“I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to make you cry! Buddies forever right?! Don’t cry Billiam!” The taller child wraps his arms around the chestnut hair one and whispers to him, “Please don’t cry Billiam, you’re much much more prettier when you smile.”
A giggle erupts from William as he looks up at his friend. “Thank you, but I’m a boy. Can I be handsome instead?”
“Billiam. You’re very very pretty.”
“You just think that ‘cause you thought I was a girl when you met me!” William says sticking out his tongue.
"No!"
"Yes. Now grow up and call me handsome!"
The Next Day
“AHHHHHHHH!!!!! NOOOO!!”
For the third time this week the shrill sound echoes through the room.
“G-gabriel Ed-duardo Sap-porta! I told you t-to stop s-s-scaring me!”
“I-I’m sorry! I couldn’t help it!” The Latino boy says hugging his best friend again.
“No- I-I h-hate you! D-don’t touch me!” William shouts causing Gabe to recoil backward looking about ready to cry. “Y-you touched that di-dirty icky hu-hairy spider. W-wash your ha-hands.”
Gabe quickly runs to sink and washes his hand and sits back down beside William.
“Why do you like scaring me?”
“Because you scream!” Gabe said as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
“You know I hate screaming.” William said pouting.
“I like hearing you scream.”
“Can’t you find another way?”
“I’ll try. I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay.”
“I love you.”
“I love you too, Gabey.”
15 Years Later
“Hey Gabey?”
“Yeah?”
“Remember when we were like seven you would always scare me.”
“Yeah, I remember. Why?”
“Nothing. I just remembered how you loved hearing me scream.”
“At least I found a new way.” Gabe says as he plants a kiss on his boyfriend’s temple.
A/N: If you are wondering about a teacher- Well its break time for the kiddies. And I didn't want to write a whole sense with the teacher sorting things out for em. (This thing was kind of rushed I dun' know)
