Subject: The Staring Contest

This is my first time writing, and by the end of this you're going to be
able to tell.
This story is of a homosexual content, if you are under age, please
leave, but we all know that most of you out their wont be listening, but
I had to warn you, also that if your not into the whole gay thing, too
bad go somewhere else.
I reserve all the rights and all that hullabaloo.

Some of this is actually real, im infatuated with this person, but yet im
in the closet and im afraid, you know how that is, the names will be
switched but the place will remain the same.




Ding Dong! Ding Dong! "Ugh what the fucks that noise!" Here I am trying
to get some sleep and some idiots waking me up, who ever it is im so
going to kill them!
Bang, Bang, Bang. "Wait a sec!" I yelled. I went ahead and put on some
jeans and my Volcom T and answered the door. "Your not ready?! What the
fuck Vince! Hurry your ass up! It's the first fucking day of school and
your gonna make us late!" my friend Kamron yelled. " Aight, aight, wait
a sec bro, lemme just grab my bag and we'll head out." I yelled in my
room not really minding the yelling, I've known Kam a while now and that
kid has no ounce of badness in him, he just gets annoyed easily,
especially when it comes to his school attendance, the kids such a kiss
ass, but you got to love him.
Oh let me tell you about my self, my names Vince, im a senior now in
Campbell High, im 18 and im 100% Asian, what can you expect? Living in
Hawaii the whole island of Oahu is practically Asians, from Japanese to
Chinese to Filipino to what ever, its common here. Anyways before I was
sidetracked im about 5'10 weigh about 190lbs. I know I weigh a lot but
during the summer I have been hitting the gym non stop so I have managed
to gain some muscles. Im gay, but no one knows except for a select few,
but we'll get into that later, Im a senior now, and you would not
believe how relieved I am to finally be a senior, I have worked 3 years
to be in this position and I want to make it a MEMORABLE one!

"So how was summer in Cali. Bro?" Kam asked me, I was away for the
summer in Cali. Visiting some relatives, it was the usual shit, all the
"hey good to see you's" and the sight seeing." It actually wasn't
that bad, same old shit you know?" I responded. I could here the
Hawaiian music playing in the background while we were driving to school,
Kam managed to persuade his parents to let him take the Scion XB to
school, there must have been some heavy begging because Kam crashed his
Dodge last time. We got to school rather early, 30 minutes early to be
exact, we arrived at 7:15, classes didn't start till 7:45, I don't mind
really, that gives us extra time to see our friends and catch up, and we
had to get in line to get our schedules in the cafeteria. Who ever
thought of cramming 4,000 kids in a café? That can only occupy 2000 at a
time is an idiot.

So let me brake it down for you real quick about my school, our school is
made up of  2 to 3 story buildings, and each building is assigned a
letter, and during the mornings and lunches they are occupied by the
students, so its designated by different cliques, there is N and R
buildings, these buildings are occupied by the JROTC kids, they hang
their during lunch and aren't really bothered with because the place is
surrounded by a fence where only the JROTC kids can enter into, unless
you have a class assigned their which occurs sometimes, I have a class
their. Okay theirs D building this is a 3 story building, occupied by the
underclassmen, the 9th and 10th graders hang there, theirs K building
it's where the special ed kids hang out at, theirs J building, the break
dancers and the rockers hang out their, no one messes with them because
their weird, and the last but 4 major buildings are the library, office,
G, and O buildings. The office is occupied by the junior kids, I know
half of them, so do my friends, the library is where you will find, the
stoners, you cant miss the building you can smell it 25 feet away with
all the stench. And theirs G building, now bare with me this is going to
get complicated, its 2stories and its occupied all the way around, one
side is where all the Samoans and Tongans and Hawaiians hang out at, make
friends with them and there wont be trouble, some are actually real cool,
the building is made so that theirs a hang out spot in the middle of the
building, and that's occupied by the blacks, there are not a lot of
blacks in our school, so if you were looking for them, that's where ALL
and I mean ALL of them will be. The other side of the building consist of
the Jocks, from football, basketball, baseball, and all other types of
sports, you cant hang their unless your in one of those sports, or you
know people in that building. But now comes O building, this is where me
and my bro's hang out, O building is occupied by the Asians, the
circumference, radius, area, what ever terminology you call it the whole
building is 100% Asian, from Filipinos and beyond, if your not Asian you
don't belong here, now you got to understand, were not racist or
anything of that sort, but over the years it has just become our spot,
and no one has bothered us, we get along with everyone and we probably
have the most kids hanging out their, so I guess we seem intimidating but
were not what so ever.

WOW sorry for that brief lesson, now where were we?

Hmmmm. 1st period, Art, 2nd period, English, 3rd period, Spanish 2, and
4th period is Psychology. Damn my schedule seems to be easy this term I
thought, me and my friends went on ahead and grabbed our schedules and
now, me, my friend Ace, Jay, Mark, and Aaron are headed to Art, I don't
really fancy art class but with my home boys their it wont be as bad it
seems, on our way to class we got a couple of "hi", "what's up",
handshakes and the infamous nod, you know how that goes, when a person is
to lazy to shake your hand and just nods at you. On our way to class we
had to pass G building, it wasn't bad we knew most of the guys their
since we all hung out at parties and what not, but I wasn't paying
attention to where I was going because I was to busy listening to my new
Ipod nano, I was listening to some Eminem when all of a sudden
"oof" I collided with a person, I stumbled to my knees, " Mother
FUCKER!" I yelled,  I was pissed, I just dropped my Ipod and I got my
new jeans dirty, as I turned around I saw this guy dust himself off,
apparently he hit the floor as well. "Hey bro, can you watch where your
going next time?" I had the right to be pissed right? The guy turned
around, and the most alluring brown eyes cast itself upon me, " hey my
bad bro, I wasn't paying attention, you alright?" he asked me, this got
me out of my bad mood quickly, " yeah im fine, don't worry about it."
And I walked away, one because the bell rang, two my friends dragged me
off and lastly, if I didn't leave I would have sprouted a boner in front
of everyone and that's a no, no.



            1st period was actually fun to be honest, my teacher Mr.
Taylor was a cool guy, he just made us introduce ourselves to the class,
and he gave us the 411 on what's going to be happening this school year
in his class and the rest of the period was spent idly chatting away with
my friends until the bell rang. Me and my friends had to split up into
groups, me, Ace, and Mark left one way, and Jay and Aaron left to go
another way, I found out that me , Ace and Mark have 2nd period as well,
English. Man school can't get better than having an easy class and
having your friends they're with you.  Our class is located in O
building on the 3rd floor, I hate the fucking walks up the stairs, god
they're so annoying. We arrived in class with a minute to spare. And us
three came to realize that this class was going to be cake, for the next
3 weeks all were doing is reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelly, and also
my other friends, Alex, and Lance where their too so it was going to be
fun as well, the same thing happened in 2nd period as it did with the 1st
one, Ms. L told us what will be expected from us, and what were going to
get into this school year, besides that we just hung out, my friend Alex
brought his hand held system PSP with him, and so did I and for the next
45 minutes until the bell rang, us and our friends battled on Tekken, we
made a deal, that we both bring our hand held every day and we duke it
out at lunch, play for some money and what not., hey don't judge on how
I make my money, im a broke 18 year old, what do you expect?

When the bell rang it indicated that lunch has begun.  Our school is on
block schedule, so we only get 4 classes but those 4 classes can go on
for an hour and a half. So when the bell rang, us 5( myself, Ace, Mark,
Alex, Lance) headed downstairs at our hangout spot to await the rest of
the gang, we all did the occasional hand shakes, and we did the PSP money
gambling, I won 5 bucks. I swear technology has come such a long way, and
its reinventing how we kids gamble. Anyway our lunch period was long, 40
minutes, halfway through lunch I started to get hungry, I didn't eat
breakfast and it was killing me, so I asked, Ace, Jay, and Jazz to come
eat with me in the café. Jazz is my homeboy, I have known him the longest
out of all my friends in O building, and he knows about me being gay, and
he kept his word and never told anybody.

So here we are in the café. And were eating this so called lunch , which
consist of some type of meat and milk and what not, when I noticed a
figure pay his lunch and sat down a table away from us where some of the
football guys ate at. "hey Jay, who's that kid that just sat down? I
bumped into him earlier today and I haven't seen him here before."  I
looked over at Jazz he was looking at me curiously, as I waited for Jay
to answer because I know Jay's on the team, and he might have had some
information on him.
"Oh him, that's Brandon, he's plays Middle Linebacker, kid can hit,
and he's only a junior too." Jay said while taking another bite of this
oh so delectable food. As I continued to eat, I kept having this feeling
that someone was watching me. I looked around and I found this Brandon
character staring at me, when I stared back, he seemed to have noticed me
seeing what he was doing and turned away, and I swore he looked like he
was blushing, he looked cute blushing, this kid intrigued me. I don't
really take notice to any younger guys, but this kid was not an ordinary
guy, when I kept off the eyes I gave him a once over, and this kid is all
man, 6'0, nice broad shoulders, probably from all the weight lifting and
football practices he has been doing, and he had, this adorable smile,
every time he did it, he had dimples on both cheeks and there's nothing
more hot than a guy with dimples. I think I was staring too much because
I could see him glance my way a couple times, and then I would look at
Jazz and he would have this look on him, I don't know what it is but I
know, we were going to have a talk, that's a given.

The bell rang, ending my trance on the cute guy in front of me. So I
headed to my 3rd class with Ace, which was in G building.  Spanish 2
seemed easy enough, heck I passed Spanish 1 with an A  all year, so this
wont be that hard.  We arrived at class a bit late. When we got in all
eyes was on me, and Ace, talk about awkward! Our teacher Ms. B separated
Ace and me! Great now this will suck. I kept on standing and I didn't
know what to do. " Vince? Isn't it? Why don't you go on and have a
sit, near Brandon, and your buddy here can sit up front? Brandon raise
your hand so Vince can find his seat please?" And I scanned the room and
saw this guys hand raised, and I went ahead and walked to my assigned
seat, upon sitting I noticed the same alluring eyes that's been on my
mind the whole day. "You?" I said kind of abruptly with out thinking
which gave him a confused look. "ummm, hi." He said kind of shyly, god
he's so cute when he gets embarrassed. I quickly had to say something
from getting him all worried. " oh, my bad, I bumped into you earlier
today, I think, umm my names Vince." And I stuck out my hands waiting
for his response.  "oh, yeah! Im sorry again about that, I wasn't
looking to where I was going." He stuck his hands out as well and we
shook, now I know what people say, electricity coursed through our hands,
but no, it was just a good firm handshake, his hands were bigger than
mines but I didn't mind.  "would you two like to tell us what's so
amusing about your conversation?" this got us both to shut up, and I
stayed quiet the rest of the class time.  During class, I would sneak
glances at Brandon, I mean if you were in my predicament you would
understand where I was coming from. We were quietly reading what was on
the board when I felt my phone vibrate, I checked to see if the coast is
clear and fished it out, I had a message from Jay: "Hey remind Kam that
you guys have to wait for me after football practice today, my cars in
the shop for a week and I told him about it." I read it once and then I
forwarded the message to Kam reminding him about practice. Putting away
my phone, the teacher interrupted us, "Class we shall do a class
activity to get to know one another, turn to the person to the right of
you and I want you to ask them 5 questions, I don't care if it relates
to school or not but get to know one another, you have 20 minutes."
After hearing what's needed to be done, I turned to my partner, Brandon.
"Soooooo." I said this felt kind of awkward, but I wanted to get to
know him, and he wont budge so I had to start somewhere. "So what's
your full name?" It was a good enough question to ask right? "umm its
Brandon Akea, and how about yourself?" he asked. " My names, Vince
Potello." Well that's one question, four more to go. "So how do you
like Campbell so far Brandon? And the football season so far?" He looked
at me a second and then answered. "Umm Campbell, is okay, im adjusting
to it pretty well, I have a group of friends, that I have established,
English is killing me though." He smiled. "umm also I wanted to know,
how'd you know I was on the football team?" with a hint of confusion in
his tone. "oh well my good friend is on the team, you probably know him,
he's the defensive captain, Jay Sanchez." He looked at me with surprise
on his face. "oh, you know Jay? That's cool, yeah he kind of took me
under his wing when I came to this school, he's a good guy." I wanted
to keep this conversation going, I didn't want it to end. " so who's
your teacher for English?" He looked up at me. "umm I think her name
is, Ms. L, I can handle the class, but analyzing the Frankenstein book is
going to be hard, im not good with that, and with football and all I have
to maintain good grades." He said kind of sadly like he wasn't going to
pass the class. " well I have her class too, I know its not the same
period, but if you ever need any help just ask, or call me , here's my
number, you got a cell?" He looked at me and quickly fished out his
phone. "okay its 555-1204." I said  while staring at him the whole
time. God I need to stop doing that, it's going to get me into a lot of
trouble.  The bell rang , and it stopped me from my staring and I stood
up and left. Then I heard. "yeah, im going to definitely give you a
call." I turned around and saw Brandon with a smile on his face, I
smiled back at him and gave him a wave, and walked the opposite way to my
last class.

4th period was pretty fun, I was by myself with out my friends, but I
think I needed that space from them, so I can just reflect on things with
out them their, plus I knew some of the people in the class, we just
didn't hang out, during the end of class I got a message from Kam saying
he couldn't make it to Jay's practice because something came up and he
had to leave early, so he ran that by Jazz and he's going to be the one
to give me and Jay a ride home. SHIT! I thought im going to be with Jazz,
this isn't good, and I just know he's going to ask questions. My cell
phone ringing stopped me from my day dreaming, it was Jazz on the phone.
"Hey what's up bro. Kam told me what happened, are you sure your up for
waiting around with me for Jay?" I had to try and avoid him but he
didn't budge. "Nah man, I haven't talked to you in a while, we got to
catch up, meet me in the student parking lot and we'll talk then
alright?" I just answered. "yes."

The plan this afternoon was to go to Kapolei, it's the next city over,
and to have dinner at Chili's. It was about 3:00 in the afternoon and
Jay's practice didn't end till 5 so we had a good amount of time to
talk. God I was sweating bullets for what was coming to me.  Jazz and me
sat as far away as possible from everyone else in the restaurant, we were
secluded and I was trapped. "So, Vince, how was the first day?" He
asked nonchalantly. " oh you know how it is, the introductions by the
teacher and all of that, how about you how was your fist day back?" I
countered, trying to avoid conversation concerning my love life. " It
was fun, chat it up with people I haven't seen in a while, and made some
NEW FRIENDS." He purposely elongated the word to emphasize what he was
saying. I sighed. " okay, okay, you win already gosh, I met this guy,
his names Brandon." Jazz had a big smirk on his face, knowing he
accomplished what he was set to do. " the guy you kept oogling during
lunch right?" WOW! That sentence caught me off guard. "What! I wasn't
oogling him man." Jazz was in hysterics. "Hahaha, dude what ever, I
were practically drooling over the guy, so what's he like, did you talk
to him yet?" "well if your asking if he's gay, I don't know that yet,
he seems to shy to be, I practically had to keep the ball rolling on this
one just for him to answer me back." The food came not long after our
conversation, the food was good, Jazz and me made small talk while
eating, about classes, his girlfriend and all that. 4:30pm came by quick,
and we headed off to Jay's practice, when we got their it was about
4:50, me and Jazz sat and waited on the bleachers for the practice to be
over with. When 5 o clock came, coach blew the whistle indicating
practice was over. I saw Jay walking towards us, I didn't expect for
Brandon to be tagging along with him, I looked at Jazz's face and he was
smiling big, trying to contain his laughter. "Hey Jazz, thanks again man
for picking me up like this on short notice." Jay said, the whole time I
was just looking at Brandon, god he was beautiful, he didn't have his
pads on, but that did little to his body frame, he was toned out and his
hair was messy from the helmet, all in all cute. Jay continued talking.
`Say Jazz could you do me a big favor? Could you drop off my friend
Brandon here as well? He lives by Vince probably 4-5 blocks down the
road?" HE WHAT! This hunk of a guy lived that close to me and I didn't
know? This is scandalous. " Yeah that no problem man, okay let's get
going, my girls waiting for me." So we hopped in Jazz's Dodge Ram and
left for Brandon's house, the whole ride home I was giving Brandon quick
glances on the rearview mirror, and I knew Jazz noticed, but didn't say
a thing, thank god. We arrived at his house, it was nice, its one of the
newer models in our area and I have actually passed by his street when I
went on my nightly jogs, what a coincidence. When Brandon hopped out of
the truck , he said his good byes to Jazz and Josh, and he looked at me
intently, like it was a staring contest and just nodded his head and
said. "Later, Vince." And went on ahead into his house.

God High School is such a trip, here I am first day of school and I
already have a crush on a boy I barely even know. What else in store for
me, I don't know, but I can't wait to find out.
