《Keeping The Balance》Chapter Forty-One - Bullied Model Student - Task World Four (1)

"Alex, could you please put out your cigarette in the school?" Hol was smoking as he waited in the hallway of the school building he was in. He looked over to the school staff that was smiling at him but he could see that their smile was forced.
Hol ignored them and blew out smoke from his nose. He then continued to look at his phone that was in his hand and pretends he couldn't hear the school staff let out an annoyed sigh. He felt totally bored as he waited for his teacher to motion for him to come inside of the class already.
Hol got into this world last week and he was rather surprised to wake up in a room that was covered in black everywhere and there were a lot of demonic posters hanging around in the room. This room just screams that it belongs to a teenager but it was rather surprising that there was makeup hanging around in the room as well. It was black but it was makeup nonetheless.
The body he was in was called Alex Teel, he allowed his close friends to call him Axl. He was an only child and he really hated his father with a passion that he didn't bother to hide at all. He hated his father so much that he took his mom's maiden last name instead of his father.
The main reason why he hated his father so much is that after his mom died from her illness he immediately got married to another woman who already had a child. That was when Axl realized that his father was a scumbag who didn't deserve any respect. He also hated the new woman and her son who couldn't even hide the fact that they enjoy spending a lot of money.
Alx's wish was for his father's company to go bankrupt and make his stepmother and brother's lives a living hell. This was mostly due to the fact in the original plot they end up killing his grandmother, his mom's mother and killing him for the money that was going to be given to him once he turned eighteen.
Hol also noticed that his temper in this body was rather bad. He often snapped if he was pushed way past his bottom line, which is rather easy to do. He needed to smoke so he wouldn't feel the urge to just let loose and destroy anything in his path.

"Alex, you can come in now." The teacher in his class finally told him that he could come in. He threw the cigarette he was smoking on the ground and stomped on it. He walked past the school staff who looked ready to scream at the way Hol was acting.
Hol walked into the class and all the students in the class looked right at him. Hol was 5'4 in this world but even though he was short his black eyes gave off a pretty dangerous feeling. He had brown skin and wore black clothing since this body really enjoyed gothic clothing. He had piercings in both ears, six in total, and he also had a septum. He also had a lip ring. He had on some eyeliner and black lipstick. He also had dyed gray hair that was an undercut.
"Everyone, this is your new classmate, Alex Edward. I hope you will get along with him." The teacher introduced him to everyone in the class and Hol could feel his eyebrow twitch when he heard the teacher call him by the wrong last name.
"Alex Teel not Edward. I am pretty sure my grandma told you I prefer that." Hol threw a look at his teacher and they let out a nervous chuckle. The teacher started to speak again but Hol blocked them out when he noticed his precious lover.
They were tall and sitting in the back of the classroom. Hol noticed that there was trash near their desk and Hol couldn't help but feel angry at that. His lover in this world was called Glenn Gutierrez. They are considered the best student in the whole school which resulted in them being bullied by their jealous classmate.
Hol looked more closely at his lover and noticed that they had olive-colored skin. They had on thick round glasses that hid their eyes from him. His lover's clothing looked rather cheap and like they were hand-me-down clothes. They had long brown messy hair that was in a ponytail.
"Hey, I wanna sit next to him." Hol pointed toward the empty seat that was next to his lover and didn't give his teacher any chance to say anything as he headed toward the empty seat. He could feel the eyes of his classmates looking at him but he didn't care about them.

He sat down in the empty chair and put down his school bag next to him on the ground. He could feel someone looking at him and he noticed that his lover was looking at him. When they realize that they were caught staring they quickly look away from him.
Hol didn't let that bother him as he just went to stare at his lover during the whole class period. He couldn't get enough of looking at his cute lover. He wanted to kiss them until they couldn't breathe.
"" Hol could hear Starie's voice but he didn't want to look away from Glenn at all. He felt Glenn was way more interesting than class anyway.
After a while class was finally over and the teacher left the class so that the students could have a break for a while. Hol didn't care about that as he continued to look at Glenn. He noticed that Glenn was shaking a bit and he couldn't understand why.
"U-Um... I-Is there something you need..?" Glenn couldn't help but be nervous when his new classmate didn't stop looking at him once during the whole class period. His ears felt really hot and he wanted to cover their eyes. It felt so embarrassing having such a good-looking male staring at him for such a long time.
"No, I just wanna look at you. Is that a problem?" Hol didn't seem bothered that Glenn questioned why he was looking at them. His lover in this world was totally different. They were usually so confident in their own way. Does this mean he will finally be the direct one in the relationship?
"N-No... Y-You can keep looking, I guess..." Glenn didn't know if Alex hated him or something. He wouldn't be surprised if he was hated since everyone else hated him in this school. But for some reason, he didn't want to be hated by them.
"That is good news for me then." Hol couldn't keep a smile off his face as he continued to look at his cute lover. He couldn't understand why anyone could be so mean to such a cute person. Jealous people are so stupid.
"Alex! Do you want to sit over here with us until class starts again?" Hol was forced to look away from his lover when he heard his name being called. The smile on his face disappeared as he looked at the female student who was smiling at him.
He guesses she must be someone popular in the class since she was surrounded by a bunch of their classmates. She is a good-looking girl but not Hol type at all. He noticed that she was giving Glenn a look he didn't like at all.
"No." Hol coldly rejects her and turns back to look at Glenn. He didn't want to bother with people who weren't important in his eyes. Especially people who clearly don't like his lover.
Hol could hear a bit of mumbling coming from where the girl was but it quickly stopped when Hol gave them a cold glare. They all quickly stop looking in his direction and went back to talking about whatever.
"Hey, give me your number and your name." Hol placed his phone on Glenn's desk and gave them a gentle smile. He wanted to get closer to his lover right away, he couldn't stand not being able to kiss them whenever he wanted.
"O-Oh... I-I see. My name is Glenn Gutierrez. It nice to meet you Alex..." Glenn softly said that to Alex as he put his number into their phone. His fingers were shaking a bit as he did this but his heart was beating really fast in a nice way.
"It's nice to meet you as well, Glenn. You can call me Alx, my friends are the only ones who are allowed to call me that." Hol threw a wink at Glenn and couldn't help but smile once he noticed his lover was blushing. His lover is the cutest when they get embarrassed.
'Ah... I wanna kiss him so badly. Hurry up and fall in love with me once again.' Hol felt really impatient at the fact they weren't already dating. It is such a bummer whenever he has to make his precious lover fall for him all over again.
