#2 of The Rose Garden

Chapter two of my high-school series. The club is more active than Cecil and Kyle would have expected. And seems Kyle is in for a surprise in the end.


~~~~~Kyle's POV~~~~~

I make my way through the halls of school on a Friday afternoon, heading back towards Cecil's room. It was afterschool on Friday, so Cecil will be hosting the new GSA club. I once again reach room 216 and steel myself for what's inside. However, before I can even move the door opens and Cecil walks out.

"Oh, hey kit! Did you come for the club? No one's here yet, after all, classes just let out. Most will probably wait a bit so they don't get seen." He said with amusement and joy in his tone.

"Really! Well, I guess I could wait, I didn't even think about someone seeing me." I say with a hint of fear in my voice.

"Don't worry about it. But, instead of waiting, do you think you could help me with getting something from my car?" he asked.

"I guess not, seeing as there's no one else here." I reply, which got a smile and a "Follow me, then" from him.

We head down the hall and towards the teacher parking lot.as we enter the lot I see only a few cars, one of which shocks me, and were headed right for it!

"Is that really your car, Cecil?" I asked, looking in awe at the clearly new Camaro.

"Yep, this is mine. Cool, huh? And that isn't even the best vehicle we own. His name is Necross." He says with his voice full of pride.

"You name your car? Isn't that a little excessive?"

"Don't be silly. Necross is the name of the operating system that controls the entire car. Here, watch." He begins. "Necross, could you open the trunk please?" he addresses the car as he walks right towards the rear.

"You know I heard that 'not the best' comment right, Master Cecil?" I heard a voice from inside the car say. I noticed that the trunk also opened.

"Did you now? Well then, I'm sorry Necross. You should know that you are the only car for me." Cecil says in an apologetic tone.

"It's alright, I already knew that. Besides, even I have to admit that Blazer Drive is amazing, even for a motorcycle." Necross replies in a teasing tone.

"Well, at least you're fine with it. Are you done staring Kyle, or would you like a few more minutes with Necross?" Cecil states while leaning against the side of his car. I blush as I register what he said.

"S-Sorry, that's just so cool. I'd love a car like this." I say, still in awe.

"Well, I'm sure he appreciates it, but remember, we have a club to get back to. Now, come here and help me with these boxes" He says motioning me closer. I do and he gives me several boxes which I hold while he holds a few himself.

"Well, that's it. Thanks for your help Kyle. Necross, can you close the trunk." Cecil says as he walks off. I follow, but turn my head to watch Necross close the trunk on its own. That's so cool! I think to myself. We make it back to the classroom to find others already there. As we walk in, everyone turns to face us, seeing who else chose to be here.

While most disregarded Cecil, they all paid attention to me. Some looked surprised to see me, but most were blushing in embarrassment, having been caught at the "fag club". I was surprised at how many people showed up, I counted at least fourteen including myself. I even recognized a few faces from around the school, including Jason from this very class. I look to the front on the board and notice that Cecil left a note telling everyone to simply take a seat and that he would be back soon.

We place the boxes on Cecil's desk and I take a seat with the others. Cecil opens one of the boxes and takes several pieces of paper and some tape. He then goes around to each of the room's corners and tapes one of the sheets. He comes back to the front and tapes a fifth sheet in the center of the wall.

"Alright, that's it. Listen up you guys. First, I want to thank you all for coming to our first meeting. Honestly, I didn't expect this many of you right off the bat. Oh well, I guess this shows just how well news travels amongst students." He says with obvious pride in his voice.

"Anyways, I'd like to remind you all that everyone here and all activities we do are completely anonymous and no one outside will find out about you being here unless you want them to. Now, why don't we start off with some introduction shall we?"

~~~~~Cecil's POV~~~~~

"Now, why don't we start off with some introduction shall we?" I say happily, seeing as I already knew most of the kids here, though there are a few new faces. They each go about saying their names, some of them being quiet from embarrassment.

"Well, now that we all know each other, I'd like you all to look at the sheets of paper I taped to the wall. You will notice each one has a different letter on it. If you can't guess, then I will tell you. The letters stand for straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender. I want you all to be honest here and go up to the one that best describes your sexuality. Doing this will help us all know what everyone is and better communicate since we will already know something that most of society has deemed very important, though I don't see it that way. Anyways, let's get this show on the road" I say and they all move about the room.

They divided up pretty well. One male wolf and a female mouse stood under the "S" sheet. Three females: a coyote, mouse, and human stood under the "L". Another male wolf and a female anaconda stood under the "B". Six were under the "G" including Kyle. And as I thought, no one stood under the "T". However, a king cobra naga was still sitting on his coils, away from any of the letters. Interesting.

"And what about you, Zack?" I ask the albino white naga while studying him a bit. Since he was a naga, he didn't have legs and, therefore, no pants. Instead he wore a long, flowing red robe designed for his species. It was also obvious he took good care of his scales too, just from seeing their shine.

"Well, I would participate but you don't have my sexuality up anywhere." He said in a slightly disappointed tone.

"Really now. If that's so, then excluding hetero, homo, bi, and transgender, the next major orientation would be pan. Are you a pansexual, then?" I ask him and Zack nods.

"Interesting, I really didn't expect a pansexual in my club. So, if you don't mind me asking, have you found your click yet?"

"Oh! I'm surprised others would know details of pansexuality. Unfortunately, no, I haven't. A few close calls are all I've gotten. So, yeah, I'm also still a through-and-through virgin. But I don't mind, once I find that click I plan to have so much fun." He said, emphasizing the last part.

"You know, if you wouldn't mind, I could hook you up with someone I know that could help you in finding that click of yours." I tell him simply.

"Really! You could? That would be so awesome." He says in shock and slight joy.

"Yeah, I don't know when I'll next see him, but I promise I'll ask if he can help. Knowing him, if I ask, he will do it. Just give me your contact information later and will see what happens."

"Cool, this will be great." He says, still happy.

"well, sorry for getting side-tracked everyone. Let's see here, I want each of you to find someone that's not of the same orientation and talk to them. After a bit, we'll switch and find someone else. If you can make just one friend here that you can be completely open with then you will have accomplished more then so people will do in their lifetime. Now, break!" I tell them and they scatter to find someone to partner with.

I watched them converse, some hesitantly, others with indifference. After a while, I called out for them to switch. I let them continue again before I called for their attention.

"Okay everyone, I think that's enough for now. It's getting late and I'm sure you all have homework or something else that you have to do. Just one last thing, I hope you all can spread the word about the club some more. After all, the more, the merrier they always say. Your all dismissed, have fun and I hope to see you again next Friday." I say as I turn and begin to clean up everything I put out.

Zach came over and gave me his contacts for later. Then, once he left, it was just me and Kyle.

"Kit, you don't have to help me you know." I tell him, somewhat wondering why any teenager would want to stay even after a club instead of going home.

"I know, but after helping me, I figured it's the least I can do." Was his reply.

Is that so? Then I won't stop you. Do you mind if I step out for a bit to use the restroom while you finish up? Then, once everything is back in Necross I can drop you off at your house."

Sure, go ahead. And thanks, I'd appreciate it. I didn't actually tell my parents what I was doing."

"Understandable for those in your position. Well, I'll be back in a bit." I said as I walked out of the room and down the hall towards the restroom.

~~~~~Kyle's POV~~~~~

"Man, Cecil has a lot of stuff. Well, I guess I'll just finish up and get my own stuff" I said aloud before going back to cleaning up. I did this before I heard movement at the door. That's odd; it hasn't even been a minute yet.

"Back already, that was qu-" I started to say as I turned around, before a fist hit me in the eye. I yipped as a fell back, and whined when I hit the floor hard. Since I got hit in the eye, I was seeing stars and not who attacked me.

"What was that f-" I tried to say before another fist hit my muzzle. It didn't stop there, though. Multiple punches and kick hit me again and again. They were using their claws too, so I was not only getting bruised, but bleeding as well. I was vaguely aware of the fact that my senses told me it was more than one attacker.

"Here he comes. Let's scram!" I barely heard a voice say from a distance, likely a lookout.

"Right. Remember freak, this is what happens to freaks and fags like you." I heard an oh so familiar voice say to me before I heard their hurried steps going out of the room. The last thing I was aware of before I lost consciousness was Cecil's panicked voice "Oh God, KIT!"
