The Private School Chronicles
A Love Considered to Be a Sin
It was a normal day in Altomare's high school. The amount of students rushing to get to class, as well as the usual slackers. For Red, he always got to class right before the bell rang. At most, he liked to be fashionably late. He thought it was cool, and his fellow classmates apparently thought so as well. When he entered the classroom looking "cool", some of the girls swooned while some of the boys gaped and briefly stared at each other, probably wishing they could be cool like him. Red took his seat peacefully, his arms hoisting his head up like a pillow would. Calmly putting his legs on the desk, Red waited until the teacher got into the room, and before they would notice, he would carefully take his feet off his desk and go into an upright position, thus making him alert and ready for class to begin.
Marine Biology was Red's all-time favorite class. After all, his favorite teacher, Miss Misty, taught that class. Although he didn't like to learn, Red's free-spirited attitude was what got him good grades in his classes. All of his teachers loved the energy Red put into class projects, even if he completely screwed up in the end. They would always say that he was an influence to all his fellow classmates, and that whenever he put a lot of energy into what the class was doing, the students would follow his example. Red could do no wrong, no matter how many smart remarks he'd sometimes make.
But nothing drove him to do more than Marine Biology. Although Red would've preferred skipping any sort of science whatsoever, he had to take one of the courses, and because Miss Misty was the only beautiful and not scary woman teaching some sort of science course (Red and most other students feared "Doctor" Sabrina, who taught Physics and refused to be called "Miss" or "Ms."), Red signed up for her class when he was only a freshman. Since then, whatever assignments he was given, Red would do his best to complete them at the minimal acceptance level, so he would be able to stay and not be transferred into Professor Blaine's science class, which consisted of Chemistry and any other field of science not covered in the high school already. It wasn't that Red found Chemistry to be boring, it was just that he was afraid of Professor Blaine like he was afraid of Doctor Sabrina.
As class started, Red noticed Miss Misty was acting different. She usually came in with a sunny personality, causing her students to begin talking noisily until she asked them to start the lesson. But this time, she just walked in, sat down at her desk, and immediately put her head on the desk softly. Worried, Red bravely walked up to her and put his hand on her back, causing his fellow students to gasp.
"Miss Misty, are you OK?" Red asked calmly. Misty looked up at him, looked down, then back at Red. She nodded softly.
"Yes, I'm fine, Red," she said. "It's just… The Elementary and Middle School science teacher, Mr. Steven, asked me to teach the fifth graders the basics of Marine Biology, and I already have so much on my hands," she continued, sighing every few seconds. Red put his arms around her gently, and Misty looked at him, blushing intensely.
"Don't worry, Miss," Red said softly, "I can go teach them if you'd like." The entire class gaped at him, as if he were crazy. After a few minutes of silence, Misty nodded her head gently.
"Could you? Please?" Misty asked. Red nodded, and his teacher smiled. At once, she gave him instructions as to what he had to teach, as well as directions to the class (though he didn't need them; he'd been in the Altomare School of Specialopolis since he was a child), and when the bell finally rang, Red headed out to the fifth grade classroom. Fortunately, he had study hall as his next class, and because the fifth grade only had Marine Biology twice a week after Red had his Marine Biology class, he didn't find it to be a big problem. As he walked into the room, he noticed at least twenty pairs of eyes bore into his skin as Mr. Steven walked up to him, a quizzical look on his face.
"Ah, Red. Why are you here?" Steven asked modestly. After a short explanation, Steven seemed to understand Red's situation. Turning to the class, Steven said in a polite voice, "Mr. Red here will be teaching you Marine Biology for the next four weeks. He has been personally asked by Miss Misty from the High School to teach in her place. Now, because he is a senior in High School, give him as much respect as you give me. I will be off now." Adding softly in Red's ear, "And good luck," Steven walked out of the classroom, and at once, the class began to get rowdy. Students got out paper airplanes and threw them around the classroom, while others got out some books for pleasure reading.
"Hey! Stop this reading at once!" Red shouted angrily. The kids looked at him, suddenly silent, and Red dropped his annoyed face at once. He began the lesson, and throughout, the kids listened to him as he spoke in a free-spirited voice. At once, they began to get into the lesson, and when it was over, many walked up to him and told him what a great teacher he was. There was one student in particular that had caught Red's eye. This boy wore a red beret-like hat and had a goofy look on his face. As that boy approached Red, Red noticed he was munching on a loaf of bread, probably from the lunchbox he was holding in his other hand. The boy broke off part of his bread and offered it to Red without a word. Surprised, Red took the piece and ate it. He gave the thumbs-up to the boy, to show that it was good. Smiling, the young boy scurried out of the classroom to join his fellow classmates. With the job done, Red began to walk back to the other building.
"So, how was it?" Green asked as Red entered Mr. Norman's Math classroom. Sighing, Red looked down at his desk, then at Green.
"Tiring," he said modestly. After a few moments, he added, "For some reason, there's this one boy who caught my attention. He was the most unique of the twenty-some kids in that class." Green cocked his head, and asked Red how this boy was unique. "Well, I dunno. He was eating during class, but was able to listen. It seemed as though his personality matched mine when I was his age." Green groaned, and Red took that as a "Never mind, I don't want to hear anymore" kind of groan.
Days passed. Soon, weeks began passing. The more and more Red taught the fifth graders, the more he developed a liking for that one boy, who was named "Diamond", or "Dia" for short. As the classes passed, Dia would talk with Red after class, and each time they would grow closer and closer to each other. Finally, the last Marine Biology class came. Sighing, Red said his usual goodbyes to the young students. When he saw Dia approach him, he couldn't help but sigh some more.
"What's [munch munch…] wrong, Mr. Red [munch munch…]?" Dia asked, carefully eating a chicken leg. Red looked at Dia, and he began blushing intensely. Although Red hated to admit it, he was really beginning to fall in love with other males. He didn't see Green in that kind of way, but that didn't mean he didn't eye any other good-looking male (in her standards). Dia nervously backed off, then walked away, leaving Red depressed in the classroom. He didn't want to scare Dia, only tell him how he felt. He weakly watched out the classroom, and trekked monotonously back to the High School building. As he went towards Mr. Norman's class, he actually ran into someone, falling back onto the ground.
"I'm terribly sorry!" he exclaimed, as he carefully got up. The other person walked up, and immediately Red recognized her to be a Junior in Altomare. The girl took one look at him, then laughed. "Hey! Why are you laughing?" he asked, annoyed.
"Sorry, it's just… There's something troubling you, isn't there?" the girl asked. Red nodded, and at once, the girl took him aside. "OK, it's about that fifth grader, isn't it?" Red gaped at her, for how could she know about Dia? "Well," she continued, "I can help you two get together. And how do I know you want this? I overhear things." Moaning, Red nodded. After all, she was the only one he could trust with his secret. After all, quite a few people considered it a sin to fall in love with someone of the same gender, much less someone much younger. Although Red didn't like such horrible beliefs, he still didn't want anyone to find out. It would ruin his reputation. And worse, he would never live it down from his current friends if they found out.
After school ended, a worried and depressed Red walked out of the building, not bothering to wait for Green, who was doing some extra work for Professor Blaine. As soon as he got to the crosswalk that connected the High School's road to the Elementary and Middle School's road, he noticed Dia calmly looking at him from across the street. Thank you, Junior, he thought merrily, running over to Dia.
"Red! It's so great to see you!" Dia shouted, calling his teacher by his informal name. Smiling, Red hugged Dia, and at once, Dia let out a small blush. He wrapped his own arms around his teacher, and looked up at Red's face. Red looked down at Dia, and both broke out in a large smile. After about five minutes, the two let go of each other.
"So, how about coming over to my house sometime?" Red asked shyly. This was unlike him to act this way, but he didn't realize it. Dia, also not realizing Red's change in behavior, nodded, still smiling from earlier. After a quick goodbye, Red was gone. Sighing, Dia looked down, then began weeping softly.
"He was the only one who ever hugged me like that," he sobbed, as he waited for his ride to come…
