A 'Special' Issue (MLB Nathaniel Kurtzberg x Marc Anciel)

?Chapter Sixteen?

"Next time you have to scream in happiness, I beg you to do it to something else or to someone else." Spades informs me as he still holds his head.

"N-Noted Spades... S-Sorry." I apologize to my Kwami as I focus my attention back to the streets in front of me.

"Seriously, at least you got yourself a great boyfriend!" Spades whisper informs me as I chuckle to myself gently.

"H-Heh... y-yeah..." I whisper out in a ghost volume as Spades chuckles mischievously. Rolling his big yellow snake eyes at me.

"Why sounding so confused like that? I mean... come on it's your crush for crying out loud!" Spades informs me as he flings his long mint tail around lazily.

"I-It's not I-I'm n-not happy! I-I'm just afraid that n-now we're going to the dance together... People m-might judge us and make N-Nathaniel reconsider u-us as a couple."

Spades sighs as he points me out into a alley way, well, it's not like I really ever need to be yelled at my mom time to time. I nod to my Kwami I step deep into the alleyway, I lift open a flap of my hoodie open as Spades flies right out, staring straight at me as he crosses his stub arms together at me.

"Marc, I know plenty of wielders back in the past that have had some problems with things like this. Most importantly, same sex relationships. There will be others out there that will say things like it's completely wrong or that it's evil to do something like that. Trust me, I've seen it a bunch of it work like a loop. But as long as you two are happy, then that is how it all should be. It's just love, and if seeing a girl and a boy together is fine. Then dating someone the same gender as you can't be as different! If it's so okay to be in a relationship with a girl and a guy, why can't the same be for a girl and girl? Or boy and boy? Look, what I'm trying to say is that... don't let others tell you what is right or wrong. You are in control not them." Spades informs me very maturely which honestly is really good advice. But at the same time this is pretty new for me. Including that fact that my Kwami is usually really lazy, sarcastic or too peppy at times for my taste.

"Huh... w-why can't y-you b-be like th-this more often?" I ask my Kwami as he shrugs his shoulders at me.

"Ehh... I honestly only do it when I feel like it's most needed." Spades informs me as he lowers himself and tucks back into my sweatshirt, "Now come on Marc, if we don't get moving now we'll end up getting a scream from you mom."

"M-More l-like me being s-screamed at Spades." I inform him as I spin myself around and step out of the alleyway. My Kwami still hiding in my coat as I flip the hood of my hoodie up over my head, I don't know why myself. But I already know for sure that my shyness is kicking right back in, or that can just be me still needing a break to realize this is my new reality, Nathaniel my boyfriend...

Nathaniel's P.O.V:

'Relax Nathaniel...'

I throw myself onto my bed as I stare up at the ceiling of my bedroom, if this is some cruel dream taking a serious tole on me then I wanna slap myself for dreaming something so realistic and real looking. But... Marc and I are officially a couple.

'Okay... Calm down... Though, why am I already wanting to propose to Marc?'

No, stop it brain that's too far from crossing the lines. We just start dating and my mind already hops all the way to me wanting to marry my brand new, including first ever boyfriend. Yeah, no way that is happening in the blink of an eye. I mean, it'll be really great if that could happen... But no that's no way happening, nope, not yet at the least. 

"Nathaniel? Are you okay?" I listen to my mom ask me as I snap myself back up from my bed as I hurry to my bedroom door, her voice is far too close to my bedroom for any comfort. I crack it open as I stare at my mom standing right outside my room, her matching red hair as mine tied back into a high bun as she wears her glasses and looks down to me. Of course she's taller then me... so embarrassing...
