Mischa bounced his leg uncomfortably,
Everything was loud- And bright- And just made him feel like trash
He tried to ignore everything- But it didn't help. He just felt like crying- He started to dissociate- In hopes that he'd feel better.
"Mischaaaa- You there??" Ocean asked waving her hand in front of his face to get his attention,
Mischa just lowered his head and looked at his knees- He wanted to sob- He felt so vulnerable- too vulnerable. Noel spoke up and told off Ocean- Then Ocean yelled at him and that made Mischa go over the edge.
He ran out of the choir room- He went into the locker room and started to cry and be vulnerable.
--
"I'm going to go find Mischa- You can continue class or whatever I don't care-" Noel stated before leaving the class to find Mischa.
Noel checked the usual spots that Mischa would skip- The library- The unused art room- He still couldn't find him, He decided to check one last place.
He opened the door to the locker room and went in, The sound of his shoes echoing throughout the room,
"Mischa?" Noel said-
He then heard what sounded like slamming on a locker and checked out where the sound was coming- It was Mischa! But he was rocking back and forth crying and hitting his thighs.
Noel ran over to him wanting to calm him down
"Mischa- Honey" Noel said caringly, He sat near the brunette and rubbed circles into his back
"No- Don't hit" Noel said- His voice nice and soft
God Mischa hated when Noel said stuff like that- It made him feel like he was a toddler doing something bad, His cheeks became hot and red due to his embarrassment.
"Hey- Hey- Hey... Look at me honeybee!" Noel said which caused Mischa to stare at him
Mischa whined and cried, He hated being vulnerable! He didn't want Noel to see him like this! He was supposed to be a gangsta! Not a baby!
"Loud." Mischa managed to get out- He was semi-verbal and he wanted to die- He was so embarrassed.
Noel rubbed circles into the others back and whispered sweet nothings into his ear until he became calm-
"Do you wanna go to my place?" Noel asked, The brunette nodded fastly and then hid his face into the others chest.
--
Noel got their stuff and walked back to the locker room- Mischa was listening to music and rocking softly
"Alright- I texted my mom- She should be coming to get us in a lil bit okay?" Noel said
Mischa nodded and gestured for Noel to come sit next to him, Noel sat down on the cold concrete and cuddled with Mischa happily.
--
Noels phone buzzed- It was his mom,
"C'mon Mischa- My moms here" Noel said- Helping the other up
They walked and talked about their life and how much they hated choir- Eventually they made it outside and they got into Noel's mom's car-
"Thank you-" Mischa whispered to Noel
Noel nodded and cuddled with the other happily.
--
Mischa admired Noel's house- It wasn't big or anything- Just better than anything he's come across,
"C'mon boys! It's gonna start raining soon-" Noel's mom said rushing to the door.
Noel and Mischa followed right after- Once they were inside Noel took Mischa up to his room
"Wow-" Mischa said
Noel giggled softly at Mischa's amazement, His room wasn't all that, It was just clean and organized
"So- What do you wanna do sweetie?" Noel asked
Mischa giggled at the petname and thought- After awhile he decided
"Can we watch movie?" Mischa asked
Noel nodded and went over to where he kept his horror movies. He rummaged around looking for something that Mischa would like
"Hmm~ Wanna watch Texas-Chainsaw-Massacre?" Noel asked
Mischa's stomach twisted at the thought of watching something gorey- Sure he was gangster but he couldn't really handle gore- But he wanted to keep up the illusion for Noel so he nodded yes.
--
They were about 10 mins in and Mischa already started to feel yucky- He felt queasy and sick, He absolutely HATED gore
"Misch you okay? You look sick-" Noel said
Mischa nodded and flopped his head onto the bed, He felt like garbage again- Noel noticed the others body language and paused the movie
"Mischa if you want to not watch this I could put in something else if you'd like-" Noel said
Mischa nodded- So Noel put a way less gorey movie in-
--
Noel's phone buzzed- It was Ricky! He started to text him curious to what he wanted.
Ricky
Ricky: Is mischa feeling better?
Noel: Yes! I don't know what was up with him though
Noel: Why'd you ask?
Ricky: I dunno- He told me something I think u should know abt tho...
Noel: What was it?
Ricky: I think u should talk to him abt it first- I don't feel comfortable saying other people's private stuffs
Noel put his phone back into his pocket and paused the movie,
"Aw why'd you pause it?!" Mischa asked
Noel coughed softly and began to talk
"Ricky told me that you told him something I should know about-" Noel said sternly
Mischa gulped and fidgeted with his buttons on his shirt and mumbled something under his breath,
"What?" Noel asked
Mischa sighed and began speaking
"I'm autistic- What I did in the locker rooms was a meltdown it happens to me when I become super overstimulated and I can't really control it... I get if you wanna break up with me because of it- I'm a frea-" Mischa was cut off by Noel kissing him
Noel pulled away and reassured him that he'd never break up with him over that. Tears started to form in Mischa's eyes- He felt so loved- And happy.
Noel un-paused the movie and watched it happily- After it was done they decided to sleep, Noel fell asleep first- Meanwhile Mischa just thought of him and Noel- How much they love each other- And other cute couple stuff like that,
"I love you.." Mischa whispered into Noel's ear happily falling asleep after.
