LOGINLuther's POV
“Wh– what?” I stammer. “Come on, stop being a pussy.” He growl under his breath. “You want to fight me, don't you?” I swallow a dry gulp, I couldn't take my eyes away from his. Him holding me against the wall like this, it was doing something to me, it was causing a stir in my pants. So, I am going to be that kind of freak? The kind that gets turned on by his bully? “Marlon, I don't know what you are talking about. I don't want any trouble, let me go.” No one dare intervene, even though my legs are barely touching the ground for support. Only William rushes in when he sees what's happening, and place a hand on Marlon's shoulder. “Just let go of him, man. It's not worth it.” He says. Marlon sigh, cursing under his breath before he let go of me. I'm red in the face with embarrassment. I adjust my collar, trying to hide the slight bulge in my pants as I walk back to my seat. Bernice draws closer to me with concern. “What the hell, Luther? What's up with both of you? What's that about?” I can barely steady my breathing as I look at her and shrug. “I don't know, maybe he is still sour about the math test.” The geography teacher walks into the class and everyone has to settle down. Marlon and the crazy thoughts in my head are forced to take a backseat for now… For the next few hours of class everyone is talking about Marlon and his mysterious beanie. They think it's sexy, a fashion statement of some sort. Bernice on the other hand won't stop bugging me about why she thinks Marlon tried to beat me in the middle of class. She is one of my only friends in this hellish classroom, but she is getting on my last nerve right now… I'm updating my biology notes when a warm liquid pours on my pants and shirt. I gasp and find myself all stiff. Hannah has just spilled her coffee all over me. “Goddamn it,” I slam my pen against the table. “Oh my God, Luther, I'm so sorry.” she gasps and try using the sleeve of her sweater to get as much of the coffee off me. “Just forget it, okay?” I tell her as I stand up to my feet. I walk to the restroom and examine the damage done. I take off my shirt and start to wash the stain under the sink. I try my best not to drench the whole thing with water. I start to wipe my trousers too, as carefully as I can. “God, I hate this school.” I mutter. The door slam shut, and I immediately feel a tightening of doom in my stomach. I turn around to see Marlon standing in front of me, with his hideous beanie. “What do you want, Gustave?” I ask, trying not to appear so scared. He doesn't answer, instead he is biting down his lip and staring at my torso. I forgot that I am not wearing a shirt. With the speed of light, I turn around, lest he would see how red my face is. I don't understand why he is staring at me so much. Is Marlon Gustave… gay? “You aren't the most smooth criminal, you know. I saw you with the stupid brick. You almost gave me a concussion, you fool.” He snort. “If it's enough to teach you a lesson not to mess with me, I'm glad I did it.” I say without turning around. My words anger him, and for the second time today, he push me against the wall, holding my neck like he wants to crush it. My lips are tightly pressed together as my chest move up and down. “Don't try to bully me again, Marlon. I still have that brick in my bag.” He shut his eyes and let out the most hungry growl I have ever heard in my life. “Fuck it.” His lips crash against mine in the most passionate kiss I've ever experienced. The warmth and fierceness of his lips consume me, and I find myself kissing him right back, fighting his tongue for dominance. He grab my hands and pin them above my head and he used his other hand to caress the bulge in my pants, my eyes almost roll to the back of my head. The throbbing is like nothing I have ever experienced in my life, I feel so close to releasing in my pants…. Then a sudden panic fills my heart. “Stop! Stop! ” I tell him in a shaky voice that I can't even recognize as mine. “Someone might see us.” He pulls away with a realizing frown on his face. “Crap, I got carried away.” He stands a few feet away and pull his lower lips as he thinks. “What's your house address?” He suddenly asks me. “Huh?” He brings out a pen from his pocket and sticks out his left hand to me. “Here. Write it down.” I work like a sex starved robot. I take the pen and scribble my address over his hand. When I'm done, he reads through it and nods. “Keep your window open tonight.” “Wh– what?” “Don't you understand fucking english, Wayne?” He snap at me impatiently. He walks out and bangs the door very loudly after him. I turn to stare at myself in the mirror. I am sweating and shaking like a leaf on a windy day. I can still taste his lips on my tongue. What the hell just happened between Marlon and I?LUTHER Solid Sterling Silver, and porcelain plates, are what Marlon has used to serve me dinner. My mother would absolutely lose her mind. She is a sucker for expensive cutlery and plates, but she never was able to afford them, and we have never been settled enough to acquire any. I feel like stealing a teaspoon and putting it in my pocket, to take back home to her, but if Marlon finds out, he might never invite me for anything ever again.“Is your car giving your any problems?” He asks, chewing lightly.“Huh?” I squint. I was so lost in my thoughts that I probably didn't hear him the first time. “Um, your car, dummy,” he gestures with his fork. “Any problem with it?” “Well, that's very unlikely, giving that it was like brand freaking new.” I answered, and he glared at me. “Do you have to be sarcastic with everything?” He mumbles. I bit down my lip, I didn't mean to be sarcastic, it just came out like that. “This is very nice, did you cook it by yourself?” I ask. “Umm…” he r
MARLONI skip the rest of classes that day and decide to give my room a complete makeover. I stand in the middle of my room, turning around, and I imagine Luth coming in here with his sense of knowing-it all. My bed is at the wrong spot, and I suddenly hate the color of my curtains. Purple. What guy has purple curtains? I immediately start to tear everything down and when I am done, I start to push my bed towards the window. That would be better. Now, he would have nothing left to judge. I hear a snicker behind me, and I turn around to see my sister laughing. “Maybelline. What the hell are you doing here?” I ask her, barely stopping. “I should be asking you that, Marlon. Imagine what Dad would say if he finds out that you are skipping classes anyway.” She shrugs. I roll my eyes. I hate that she is bringing up dad right now. I see her quickly realize what she has done, then she changes the topic as she clears her throat. “So, changing the arrangement of your room because L
LUTHER Marlon and I sit awkwardly as Maybelline goes around, pulling the curtains together to make sure no one sees us. Once she is done, she smiles at both of us as she walks backwards to the door. “No fighting, okay? I will be back in exactly fifteen minutes. Be good.” As soon as she leaves, my hand goes to my chest as I exhale with relief. “You told me freaking sister that we were fucking?” Marlon spits at me. “She already knew, what was I supposed to do?” “I don't know, Luther, maybe try to deny it!” He yells even louder. It seems that he has forgotten that we are here because he needs to explain those silly pictures he sent me. Now, he has turned it around and I'm the one getting the chastisement? How?! “Fine!” I stand up to my feet. “Looks like you have better things to do than explaining yourself. Have a good day, Marlon Gustave.” “Hey, hey, hey,” he grabs my hand, his voice is a lot more gentler this time around. “Okay, I'm sorry for sending those pictures to you. I
37. LUTHER The food suddenly tastes like sawdust in my mouth, and she notices it too. “I– i– I don't understand what you are saying, Maybelline. You said that you only wanted to buy me food.” “Yes, Luther, I did, and I also want to know what's going on between you two. It's alright, you can tell me anything. I'm your friend.” Tell her everything? Like tell her that her hunk of a brother is actually gay, and we have been fucking since the first week that I came to Densberry? Nah, I'd rather die. It's not my place. It's true that he hurt me by sending those pictures of him in explicit positions with some girls, but I won't do that kind of evil to him. Coming out was easy for my mother, it's just her, and there really wasn't anything she could do about it. She had to accept me because she wasn't going to be able to have another child (she told me that she would rather walk the street naked than to have another kid). For Marlon, it's quite complicated with his dead mother, macho
LUTHER Parking my car into the parking lot, I notice some of the students talking and whispering as they point to my car. Honestly, I get it. It's quite pricey for someone who lives in the most awful house, but I don't care. I grab my stuff and just as I am about to get down from the car, I mistakenly get into my messages and open the thread with Marlon. Yeah, he was acting really crazy after that game, and I stopped reading his messages after he called me an ungrateful person. He sent a bunch more, but I never opened them. Until now. My eyes widen as I see Marlon lying in bed with four other girls, and my head starts to spin. My hand is shaking, I want to stop staring at this picture, but I somehow can't bring myself to do that. He is fucking girls too? “Come on, don't act surprised, Luther,” I murmured to myself, wiping my hand over my mouth. I block him and slip the phone into my pocket. It's time for me to put an end to this thing with Marlon, whatever it is…God forbid
MARLON I woke up with the worst headache, and about four half naked girls in my room. The whole place is a mess. Jesus Christ. I stagger out of bed, my shirt is missing, but thankfully, my giant diamond pendant is still on my neck. I'm relieved. I immediately go into my closet to check on the rest of my jewelry. Thankfully, they are still in place. The last time I had a party like this, a bunch of stuff was stolen from my room, my dad's room, my sister's, and even some of the servants. Safe to say that my Dad gave me shit for it, but somehow, he was able to find people to track down and arrest the thieves. Everything was recovered. When I walk back into the room, I see my angry sister standing at the door with her hands folded. “Marlon, what the hell is this?” She asks me. “Yo, did you watch the news yesterday? We won!!” I raise my hands in celebration, but I don't have a single energy left in my body. “This place looks like a fucking morgue, Marlon. Many people have passed
