Yo: “ROACH!!” *Pointing to an image of Roach from CoD* Mi Hermano: “Roach should lowkey die in a ditch while you watch in agony and grief, unable to move as I hold you back with the two ropes I acquired by selecting it in my inventory.”

The classroom door swung open as Blueberry rushed in, his face starting to redden with embarrassment. “Late again Bluberry” the professor said with disapproval. “S-sorry sir!” He didn’t even bother coming up with an excuse, going to an empty chair immediately. The pairs of eyes seemed to pierce into his very soul as he shrunk back in his seat. “Moving on.” The lecture continued without a hint of what had been taught before. Blueberry took out his notes and silently mourned his future grades, the exams looming over his mind like vultures.

Meanwhile, Cherry, who was sitting next to Blueberry, silently held back a squeal. He could feel his face flushing ever so slightly when Bluberry’s shoulder brushed against his. The sound of stationary sliding and scratching on paper filled the room with its background tone. The speech about mathematics and whatnot slipped through Cherry’s mind. His mind seemed to drift away into daydreams of hand-holding and soft touches with Bluberry. His gaze traveled over every curve of Blueberry’s features, his breath hitching slightly as he noticed the soft plumpness of the other man’s lips. Cherry could feel his mouth go dry as he imagined his lips pressed against those-

“Cherry” The professor's voice cut through sharply. Her finger tapping a book impatiently. “You better be thinking about this information young man. It’ll do you good for the exam.” She said crisply as her hand moved back to gesturing towards the board.

Cherry averted his gaze with hesitation. The last glimpse of Blueberry being his focused eyes as he wrote.

The bell rung for the end of classes, soon the sounds of students chattering and books sliding into bags as they zipped filled each room. Cherry didn’t miss a beat, snatching his belongings quickly from his workspace. Blueberry took his time while packing up, not a single glance going to Cherry. The moment Cherry noticed this he slowed down his pace rather quickly, now wanting to savor every moment beside Blueberry. Banana walked over with a knowing grin, nudging Cherry. “HEY-! Don’t sneak up on me like that you bastard.” Cherry hissed at Banana. “What? I always do this!” Banana insisted, meanwhile Blueberry had already left. “Ugh you’re unbearable!” Cherry muttered through clenched teeth. His eyes drifting back to Blueberry unintentionally. “Earth to Cherry!” Banana sneered, “gonna keep drooling over your lover boy?”. Cherry smacked him hard, face flushing in embarrassment as he swung his head around frantically, assuring that nobody heard. “Keep it down! You know I don’t.. well.. I do, but SHUT UP!” Cherry whisper-yelled.

Blueberry’s eyes lit up as he spotted Blackberry in the hallway, nearly sprinting over to him. “Hey, want to go to our usual path?” Blueberry asked hopefully. Blackberry looked up and smiled warmly. “Sure! We shouldn’t stay for too long though.. ugh, homework and jobs and stuff.” Blackberry huffed in annoyance at the future tasks. “Hmn okay, let’s go now so we can stay longer!” Blueberry took Blackberry’s hand in his and lead him out the doors. The sunlight captured the strands of hair on Blackberry’s face, highlighting his eyes, young and bright. Blueberry’s thumb rubbed soft soothing circles on his lovers hand as they walked, talking about their day. The pathway leading to the forest trail soon came into view. “Let’s go to that lake this time!” Blueberrry said, looking at Blackberry, “The one that we first confessed at?” He asked, Blueberry nodded and practically skipped beside Blackberry.

Cherry blushed deeply as he talked with Banana, sitting at a bench that’s a walking distance from the lake. “I-I just think he’s cool! And plus.. I’m pretty sure he’s single, he doesn’t show any interest in anyone!” Cherry chirped, lovestruck. Banana chuckled, “Aww how cute, you two holding hands and walking together!” Banana made exaggerated kissing sounds. “Stop! It’s not like he’ll ever like me back or something..” Cherry felt his insecurity sinking in again. The other man noticed the change and tried lifting the mood “Come on! Don’t undervalue yourself! You’d be great with him!”. A ding came from Banana’s pocket, his hand sliding down to grab his phone. “Oh” he looked at the message. “Well I gotta go, I’ve got a project in one of my classes.” He ran a hand through his hair as he groaned in frustration. “I’ll see you next week yeah? I’m busy this weekend but we can still call!”. Cherry nodded in understanding, feeling better about himself after the reassurance. “Alright see you then!” Cherry watched Banana jog away, his shoulders slumping slightly.

Then his breath caught in his throat, standing near the lake was Blueberry, his smile genuine and warm. Cherry watched, mesmerized as Blueberry kneeled, then Cherry’s dreamy expression faltered. “Kneeling.?” He murmured under his breath, then his face paled, seeing Blackberry. “No.. no no..” Cherry stood up, hands shaking. “He isn’t.. he wouldn’t.. there’s no way!” Cherry snarled in furious jealousy and disbelief. Blackberry turned, confused, then gasped as he saw the ring, his hands flying to his face.

“Will you marry me Blackberry?”

The words leaving Blueberry’s mouth felt like a train to Cherry and like a dream come true to Blackberry. “I- I” Blackberry stammered, tears starting to build up. Blueberry swallowed hard, deathly afraid of rejection, his hand starting to tremble as he forced himself calm. “Of course I will!” Blackberry threw his arms around Blueberry’s neck, kissing him with a sob of joy. Blueberry froze, then his hand slid up to the back of Blackberry’s neck, keeping the kiss for a moment. The kiss broke and Blueberry didn’t hesitate, sliding the ring onto Blackberry’s finger. “Don’t cry! It’s okay babe!” Blueberry hugged Blackberry tightly.

The world around Cherry seemed to warp. “Babe..?” He choked the word out as if it had hurt him. His knees buckled as he watched the tender, loving scene, unable to react from the few feet away he stood. He stared holes into them, his mind flashing with dark thoughts. Thoughts of keeping Blueberry to himself, imagination twisting into horrid fantasies. The hands he thought would never harm anyone curled into fists, shaking as he held back his fiery emotions. He watched as Blueberry and Blackberry started to walk again, heading right towards Cherry now. Cherry caught himself and put the friendly, approachable mask back on. Pretending to observe the greenery around him.

Blueberry and Blackberry stopped in their tracks. “Cherry?” Blueberry said shakily. “Oh! Blueberry!” Cherry perked up, trying to act normal. “You.. you didn’t hear anything right?” Blackberry asked, his grip on his new fiancés hand tightening slightly. “I- well I shouldn’t lie.. I did see and hear, but I’m happy for you two!” Cherry replied with his faux smile. The two men in front of him visibly relaxed, “Don’t uh.. don’t tell anyone yeah? It’s been a secret for a while and we’re not ready to tell anyone.” Blueberry murmured nervously, silently hoping he wouldn’t tell. “I won’t! Promise!” Cherry said reassuringly. Blackberry smiled slightly, “Well, we’ll see you around then Cherry!” Blueberry and Blackberry waved goodbye and walked further down the path. Cherry looked at their intertwined fingers, watching them with venom. The moment he saw them turn another corner he stormed away. Marching back out of the trail and back to him home. “I can’t believe this.” He hissed as he harshly wiped away tears, his eyes starting to get red and puffy. ”What’s so special about him? He’s just some-“ He choked on his words as he opened the door with trembling hands. “some nobody!” The door slammed shut behind him as he threw his fist against the wood, making it creak in protest. “I-I shouldn’t be thinking about Blackberry like that, it’s wrong, he’s a human too..! He isn’t just a..” the words trailed off as he felt the rage bubbling up again, a sudden surge of jealousy making his head spin. “AN OBSTACLE!” He shouted, his fingers moving without a second thought, helping to hoist him up. “Thats it.. Blackberry is just an OBJECT, something sent to distract Blueberry from me.” Cherry started making his way to the back room, grabbing the door handle and pushing the door open.
