“You’re doing attendance today, Mic.” Dom hummed as he handed Valk a list of names.
“Uuuuugh. Okay.” Valk grumbled, dramatically sighing, slouching, and then taking the papers.
The brothers boarded the bus together, and Dom sat down in the seat directly behind the bus driver’s. Valk stood in the front of the bus to begin to call attendance; it went as usual, for the most part. Shuriken was the first to respond to his name oddly- just like he always did- by screaming “HERE!” as loud as he could. When Valk called Banhammer’s name towards the end of roll call, and the senior let out an obnoxious grunt, Valk paused.
“Are you sitting by Medkit?” Valk questioned.
“Yeah. I always do. Why?” Banhammer responded. He sounded like he was attempting to be intimidating, growling in a low voice. Valk glanced down to Dom, and Dom’s eye met his, and Dom nodded.
“Uh, you can’t sit by him anymore.” Soft “ooh”s could be heard spreading across the bus.
“Why not?” Ban growled.
“Because you were kissing in the practice room, dude.”
“EW!” Skateboard was the first to react, and the bus erupted into a cacophony of voices. Medkit ashamedly stood, and Katana offered to switch seats since nearly every other seat was taken. Medkit graciously accepted and went to sit by Vinestaff while Katana calmly sat beside Banhammer.
“Have fun with them.” Valk teased Dom. “See you on the flip-side,” he smiled and got off the bus to call attendance on the second one- the one that he would be riding with. Dom sighed and put in earbuds to drown out all the screaming.
Shuriken looked across the aisle of the bus to see Medkit. “Did you kiss with TONGUE?!” He yelled.
“Shuriken!” Vinestaff yelped and shot a glare at the other.
“Sorry!”
“No, no! It’s a good question! I wanna know!” Skateboard laughed, leaning out of his seat. Boombox laughed and pulled her back in. Skate shoved Boom, and Boom shoved Skate in return and then fell onto her. Skate yelped. Slingshot laughed at them, squished against the window to their shared seat.
Medkit flushed red. Vinestaff gave him a gentle smile and wrapped her arm around him. “Sorry, they’re a lot.”
“I know,” Medkit groaned, covering his face with his hands.
Dom flinched when he felt someone nearly throw themself against him and looked down at who it was, taking out an earbud. “…Hey?”
“Hi Dom!” Shuriken chirped. “How’d you guys find out?”
“Find out what?”
“Who saw them kissing?”
“Um. Me,”
“Woah, gross! Were they kissing with tongue?!”
“…Shuriken. Why do you need to know this?”
“Pleeeeaaase, can you tell me?”
“Dude,”
“I’ll give you gum!” Okay, that piqued Dom’s interest.
“…Yeah, they were.”
“GROSS!” Shuriken laughed and gave Dom a stick of gum before running back down the aisle to his seat. “THEY DID KISS WITH TONGUE, GUYS!”
“Stay in your seat, kid!” The bus driver yelled at Shuri. The bus huffed and began to move. With a sigh, Dom put his earbud back in and leaned against the window of the bus. This was going to be a long ride.
