《My Mute Mate》Ch. 15

Blake ^^ Important message below
--
I get to first period right as the bell rings and my teacher looks at me with widened eyes. She's surprised by how I look, but something tells me it's not pleasantly. I wave faintly and sit down somewhere near the back. I end up sitting, suprise suprise, right by Blake. I groan internally. Of course I decided to sit here. I try my best to ignore the staring boy when suddenly sparks start on my right knee. I glare at Blake as he looks into my eyes.
"You look hot." He tries to compliment me but I just roll my eyes. I shove his stupid hand off of my knee as the teacher clears her throat.
"Dove, what is the answer to this equation?" She asks me, rather rudely. This caught me off gaurd because she was always super nice to me. I write the answer down on the board and stand up with it. She reads it but glares at me.
"What's with the board, Miss Ross?" She asks me and I write down that I simply hurt my throat. I show it to her and she looks at me like I'm wasting her time.
"See me after class." She states simply and I hear Blake chuckling. I glare at him and huff before sitting down. I stare at the wall for the rest of class as the sparks return to my knee.
::::Time Skiparooni::::
"Yo Dove you okay?" Sym asks as Calum wraps his arms around her waist. I shake my head. I've gotten to lunch, but people are annoying and teachers suck. Ive seen 3/4 teachers after class so far and the one I didn't see, was a sub so he assumed this was normal. I slam my head into the lockers lightly and try not to tear up. Suddenly a searing pain goes through my chest and I fall to the floor. Can this day get any worse?
"Dove.." Mason crouches down next to me. I just lean my head on his shoulder and he wipes the tear that went down my cheek.
"It'll all be okay. I promise. Two more periods then we'll go home and watch movies and eat junk food and listen to all of Fall Out Boys albums okay?" He says and I nod.
'Only if we watch the Nightmare Before Christmas and Grease.' I demand and he laughs.
"Sure thing girly." He promises with an arm around me. Suddenly Blake has Mason up against the wall. I hadn't even noticed that the pain stopped.
"Hey man! What's your problem?!" Mason yells, pushing Blake off of him. Sym goes to step in but Mason stops her. Blake pushes Mason back again.
"You're touching my girl! Keep your hands off. She's mine." Blake growls and I roll my eyes. Mason looks to the side and pushes Blake away again right as Trinidee jumps onto Blake. She topples them both over and straddles him.
"You did this to her?! You sick son of a-" I can't hear the rest past the sound of her fist making contact to Blakes face. Sym whines beside me.

"Maaaan... Trinidee gets to have all the fun." She whines again and Calum laughs. He kisses the top of her head.
"It's okay babe. Next time." He says and she smiles.
"I'll kill him." She states with a huge grin.
"I bet you will you psychopath." Calum agrees lovingly and I smile. They are talking about something completely morbid like its the weather. Remind me never to tick one of them off. Speaking of morbid, Blake isn't looking so good. I want him to pay, but this is too much in one sitting. He needs to suffer. He'll heal from this in a day. I pull a still enraged Trinidee off of Blake and she looks at me. I nod once and she backs off. She gets a napkin from her purse and wipes her hands of blood. I stick out a hand for Blake, and he grabs it hesitantly through his one non swollen eye. He gets up and I signal him to duck down to my height. I get him an inch away from my face.
Then I spit.
It lands in the middle of his face. I grab my bag and Masons hand ((Not in that way. The ship hasn't sailed yet.)) before walking away. I didn't realize we made a crowd until I had to push through them. Well, actually, they just kinda moved out of the way. It was like it was a movie. Yet I still don't understand how a teacher hasn't noticed the fight. I look back and see Blake wiping his face and I smile a little. I wish I had been the one to do that to him, but you win some you lose some. I appreciate Trinidee having my back. Also Syms threat that never actually made it to Blake's ears was kinda comforting, once you got past the crazy. I go out the side door and stop.
"Where were you going?" Mason asks me, slightly amused. I shrug.
'I dunno. My next class and my locker are back there.' I respond and he starts laughing.
"Well. We've got ten minutes and there is this amazing burger truck that probably is clear of people now. Wanna go?" He asks again and I nod, the rumble of my stomach agreeing. We walk off to the truck and I realize I'm still holding his hand. I drop it quickly and he doesn't even look at me.
Girl you crazy. He's hot and he likes you. I know we have a mate and all but like, he's rude and sleeps with sluts and Mason gives you movies and popcorn. Think.
This isn't about Blake deserving to rot in hell in our opinion, it's about me. Im healing quickly physically, but emotionally is taking forever. I still flinch when things move quickly. Sorry you're too much of a horndog to see that.
Whatever. You don't have to be such a sweet little batch of cookies about it. Jeez.
Get out of my head.
Fine.
I feel Lisa start to take over and I look at Mason. He widens his eyes and takes my hand. My eyes begin changing colors as we rush away and into the parking lot. We hop into Syms car and see that she put her keys under her seat.

"Sym has a tracker on the keys. Anyone takes her car... Well, let's just say it's not pretty." Mason says as he starts the engine and peels out of the parking lot. I see my eyes are Lisa's colors in the mirror and I fight her harder.
Stop Lisa!
No! You wanted me out of your mind and now you've got it.
I crawl into the backseat and start to change. My bones crackling until Lisa wins. I look through her eyes as Mason pulls up to the woods. Lisa jumps out of the car and stretches.
"Well. Sym is gonna be mad because you ripping up her styling for you, but at least it wasn't her favorite SWS shirt. She'd kill you for that." Mason chuckles and Lisa just looks at him.
Mmhm... He is fine.
Oh shut up and just run.
I don't want to run right now.
Cmon Ill miss class.
Boohoo. Next time be nicer to me.
Fine. Jeez you're such a pain.
Thanks. I try.
Lisa continues to stare at Mason. She's trying to get him to go get me some clothes but he's just on his phone. Like me, she's voiceless, so we could be here for hours at this rate. She jumps to catch his attention but it doesn't work. She rolls her eyes and walks up to him. She bites his leg. Not hard enough to draw blood, but enough to break the skin.
"Hey! What even?" He asks and looks at Lisa. She paws at him.
"Ohh clothes. Gotcha. Be back in five." Mason finally understands.
Jeez he's kinda thick though. Not the sharpest tool. But hey, at least he treats us like a lady.
Oh whatever. Cmon. Let's run while he's gone.
Mkay.
Lisa takes off after Mason leaves. We dodge around trees and roots with ease. Lisa smiles and pushes herself. I don't know how long we ran, but when we got back, Mason was sitting there on the phone with a screaming person who I'm assuming is Symali. Mason is holding the phone away from his face but Sym is still super loud. I'm about 10 feet away and I can hear her clearly.
"Why Mase?! What am I supposed to do now?! You're gonna pay for touching my baby! And you said Dove shifted?! Why On Earth would she?? Those were my clothes. Jesus Christ Mason I'm going to tear your throat out with my teeth. Get back here." Sym yells through the phone and Lisa snickers in my head.
Well she's pleasant.
Syms a good person. Chill.
Whatever. Lets just change.
Grab the clothes first.
Lisa walks over and takes the clothes from an apologizing Mason in her mouth and trots off. I finally change back and throw on the sweats and sweatshirt he got me. I walk back out and Mason hangs up.
"Well. I'm dead." Mason says after running a hand through his hair.
'Sorry.' I write once I grab my board.
"It's okay. Schools over now so we gotta go pick up Sym and Calum."
'Mkay.' I climb into the car and turn on the radio. Mason plugs in his phone and 'Dance, Dance' by Fall Out Boy starts playing. I smile at how this is close to how my day is going. I start dancing to the song and Mason laughs.
'Dance Dance, we're falling apart to half time..'
We get to the school and I see Calum pick up a lunging Sym.
"That's my baby Mason Imma kill you! Get out of my car!" Sym starts yelling before we even stop the car. Calum starts struggling to keep an enraged Sym under control.
"I suggest you get out Mason. Also Dove, might wanna come stand behind me. This could potentially get ugly." Calum warns and I do. I hide behind the boy as he lets Sym go, who goes flying towards Mase. She smacks him upside the head before inspecting her car. She grabs Masons collar and points out the mud his sneakers caused and the ripped clothes in the backseat. She lectures him thoroughly, and me and Calum just kinda watch quietly.
"You're lucky you didn't scratch it." She says and hugs her car, letting Mason go. "Poor baby I'll never let that mean man touch you ever again." She talks to her car and I smile. Man. I swear she loves that thing more than she loves Calum. She hops in and revves the engine.
"Okay. Hop in guys." She allows and we all get in. Sym flies out of the parking lot and I swear she's worse than Rose. She turns on MCR on the radio((They were such a great idea 😭)).
"If your life wont wait, then your heart can't take this! Have you heard the news that you're dead? No one ever has much to say, I think they'd never liked you anyway!" Sym and Calum sing together and I notice they're both quite good. I mean, like, Calum's voice is beautiful and seems like he could be a rockstar or something, and Sym is untrained, but has raw talent there. I lean my head on Masons shoulder as I listen to them together and my eyes slowly shut.
--
So for those of you who don't know, Calum is supposed to be Calum Hood from 5 seconds of summer. I was wondering if all the guys from there can be in this story, I swear it won't turn into a fanfiction, they're just side characters to add to the plot. I think this should be a story where you guys help, so your opinions would be nice. Thanks.

8 105An Average American in A High-school Academy Anime
An American versed in narrative tropes and more than mildly acquainted with anime wakes up in a completely different bed than the one he went to bed in. Now he has to scramble to understand where he is, what's going on, and hope to God he isn't in a relationship drama. I don't expect this to be good or well-received, but I have plenty of time this quarantine, so I'll try to get a chapter of 4000-10000 words out every one or two weeks. (haha) Please let me know how it can be improved. I'm an avid reader of fiction, but I've never really fallen down a rabbit hole so hard that I can name all tropes and settings and such by heart. I'm not sure if this will be effective satire, so I preemptively apologize. Inspired by: "My Life is Not a Manga, or maybe..." by EO Tenkey and "The Simulacrum" by Eganthale. Check them out if you want probably better stories than this one.
