I think he likes you (Ticci Rain) Chapter 02
A soft sigh escaped from the lips of the raven haired male as he sat in the windowsill; casually resting his folded arms over his bent knee, as his other leg dangled off the ledge, as he boredly glanced out the window. He blinked and tilted his head seeing a figure approaching the house. Absently, perhaps out of a sake of curiosity, he hopped off the ledge and opened the window, he poked his head out in hopes to see the figure below better. Confused as he was not as accustomed to company of late, he stepped back and went down to the front door. There he unlocked it before soon blinking in surprise, upon seeing a neon haired boy, which he most definitely recognized. “Bones? Wha, what’re you doing here?” he asked before peeking out behind him, soon arching a brow. ‘Better question, where’s that crimson haired troublemaker that’s usually with him?’ he thought to himself. He was rather confused to Luke’s unusual absence from the other teen, as he usually never saw them separate from one another. Barry arched a brow “what’re you looking at?” he asked after turning to glance behind him absently. “I think it’s more of, what am I Not seeing” the boy commented straightening up slightly. His posture was slightly hunched over, but that’s just how the raven haired teen always was. “Barry, why isn’t Luke with you?” the raven haired boy finally managed to ask. Barry gave an exasperated sigh “yeah um about that, that’s….. kinda why I wanted to talk to you Kaun, or am I bothering you?” Barry spoke casually. Kaun blinked before sighing “that depends, am I gonna need a shovel for this?” he asked calmly. “What?! No! it’s not That kind of problem” Barry protested nervously. “Oh good” Kaun managed before moving aside to let him in. Barry walked in as Kaun nervously glanced out towards the forest line; eyeing it cautiously, before closing the door, and looked to his friend of sorts.
“Barry….is everything okay?” he asked worriedly “not exactly” Barry sighed. Kaun walked over and took Barry by the arm, strong enough to guide him, yet not enough to cause any discomfort. As he then proceeded to pull him into one of the more private rooms in the house, and had him sit down onto a couch. Once inside the room, he went over to a seemingly random cabinet and opened it. As he did, he was greeted by a small plume of frosty air, which came out of it. “You want anything to drink?” he asked as he retrieved himself a Dr. Pepper from the cabinet that he had fashioned into a mini fridge. “Oh yeah, a Pepsi if you got it” Barry told him. Kaun smirked slightly “yeah, I kinda figured you’d say that” he commented casually, as he then gabbed the cans of soda and closed the cabinet with his elbow. He then walked over to his guest, handing the Pepsi over to him. “Hey thanks, you know, getting to your house from ours, is quite a trek, good thing it’s in the Slender Woods though am I right?” Barry commented. “Yeah I guess, so did they ever find Splendorman?” he asked as he sat down across from him.
“Was he having one of his spaz outs again?” Barry asked to which Kaun sighed. “Apparently so ….Slenderman came by here last night, telling me to stay indoors because of it” Kaun mentioned casually, before drumming his fingers along his can. “Though it doesn’t really matter now, so um, what’s been bothering you?” he asked. “It’s not like a big deal or anything, but Luke’s been going out to parties a lot lately without me, and well…. it’s kinda pissing me off” Barry began. “But, don’t you normally like the solitude?” Kaun asked calmly. “Yeah, I know, usually I do, it’s just, when comes home from it, that’s when it starts” Barry confessed. “he sits there and goes on and on about how much the parties sucked; and how all these girls he meets there are all… rubbing up on him, and coming on to him and what not” Barry continued the stress very clear in his voice. Kaun watched his friend worriedly, wondering if he should stop him. However, he figured Barry needed this, so he decided not to, allowing the other boy to continue.
Barry ran a stressed hand over his face “and when I get annoyed, he pulls the whole ‘aww c’mon don’t be that way, you know you’re my favorite’ as if just because he says it, that I’m supposed to be okay with it, but I’m not, I mean, h, how can I be after he?” he began, giving a depressed sigh, and lowered his head. Kaun’s visible eye displayed his concern very evidently “Barry? What did Luke do to you?” he asked. “what didn’t he do?” Barry commented harshly “what a bullshit excuse” he cursed. “I’m sorry Barry, but I’m not sure I understand” Kaun urged sadly. “Maybe mom and dad were right, maybe he was bad for me ….I mean Jesus, I was saving myself for someone special, and yet I” he began. Kaun blinked “wait, hold on, a, are you saying Luke raped you?!” Kaun asked his grip tightening on the can, his hands trembling slightly. “What?! No, no, of course not, I, it wasn’t like that, yes, we did have sex, but it was consensual, well at least on my end it was” Barry protested, his cheeks turning a soft crimson shade from shame.
Kaun’s eye went wide in surprise before he seemed to calm down. “Oh I get it” Kaun spoke softly, taking a calm drink from his soda. “Get what?” Barry began “you’re in love with Luke …aren’t you?…..That’s why you hate hearing him brag about people flirting with him” Kaun confessed calmly. Barry stared at Kaun in shock, before his gaze averted towards the can of soda in his gloved hands. “I suppose, but if that’s true, that would make me gay or something right? ….damn ….really?” Barry asked looking up. “It’s the only logical explanation that I can think of; unless the Westermarck effect is strong enough….. I can’t be certain for sure though” the raven haired teen explained. Barry ran a hand over his face “great, just ******** wonderful” Barry groaned. “I’m afraid to ask this, but, why did you let him sleep with you?” Kaun inquired gently. “I dunno…I must not have been thinking right” Barry began. “I mean… there I was, taking a nap on the couch, minding my own damn business, when Luke comes over and keeps bugging me till I wake up” the neon haired teen began, before massaging the bridge of his nose as he continued. “Then he brings up this crap about, how him and I, if we were gonna summon Dark Clown, that we had to lose our…. ‘purity’…or y’know out virginity? Whatever…anyway.. I told him to go to bed, but Luke just….. well, next thing I know, his hand’s practically down my pants and groping me, then he got on top of me and started kissing me; before I knew it, I was his for the taking” Barry confessed mournfully.
Kaun walked over before setting down his drink; as he then sat next to Barry, and placed a hand onto his shoulder. “Barry, did you want it?” he asked worriedly. “Well…..yeah, I mean, the moment his lips were on mine, I was practically wrapping myself around him” Barry sighed mournfully. “That’s um……not quite what I meant” Kaun managed glancing away. Barry lightly arched a brow “what do you mean then?” the neon haired boy asked. “I mean, did you want to be with him….as in, you know… more than friends?” Kaun inquired. Barry blinked in shock, before a dark crimson shade dusted his cheeks, and he quickly averted his gaze. Kaun chuckled slightly “I see, Barry, maybe you just need to make it obvious that it bothers you, let him know how you really feel, if Luke cares about you as much as you care about him, he’ll probably understand” Kaun told him. This caused Barry to give off a sigh before glancing at him out of the corner of his eye. “Okay; and what about you?” Barry abruptly asked. “What’re you talking about?” Kaun asked worriedly. Laughing Jack had been bored, and wanted to play with someone. He had tried going to Jeff the Killer’s place, but the raven haired lunatic got mad upon seeing him, and slammed the door in his face. Telling him to ******** off and go bother someone else. The puppets seemed to be busy, and apparently Stagetrick Mime, still wasn’t ready to greet Laughing Jack with open arms, without a collection of floating knives, suddenly flying at the monochrome clown’s face.
He frowned upon seeing that Masky and Hoody were sleeping as was Ticci Toby. “Hmm, who haven’t I tried?” he muttered to himself. He had tried visiting Ben Drowned, but Ben was busy with some of the Pokepasta trainers. They were busy playing Super Smash Brothers Melee, to which Ben was playing as Link from Legend of Zelda, no surprise there. “Ah, ooo I know, Pumpkin Bones! They’re usually up for causing some mischief” he told himself as he laughed and bolted out to the tree house. Upon arriving at the devious duo’s tree house, the demented clown peeked his head in through the open doorway smiling brightly. “Hellloooo boyyysss” he began in his playful manner, before noticing no reply and frowned in annoyance. “Damn, guess they’re not here today” he spoke straightening up. “Well that just sucks, oh wait a minute, they’re probably with Dark Clown right now, of course, yeah that must be it” he told himself before rubbing his chin. “Well… I could probably go hang out with Splendorman; that could be fun” he told himself, before he made his way into the woods.
As he entered the Slender Woods, Laughing Jack wandered about, glancing about the trees in slight curiosity. That was before he stopped upon noticing a feint clearing, and upon recognizing it, his clown face lit up, as he wandered over and sure enough; he spotted the human sized dollhouse, as he felt a surge of excitement race through him. “Oh yes of course, sweet little Kauny boy, oh how silly of me to have nearly forgotten to go see if he’s busy, he’s practically always home” he told himself as he rushed over to the house. The twisted clown grinned deviously as he reached to knock on the front door, but suddenly hesitated and stopped himself. ‘Better idea, let’s surprise him instead, that outta be loads of fun, bet he’ll like that’ he thought to himself, as he reached for the handle; expecting it to be locked. However, he was rather surprised when it clicked open, causing him to arch a brow in confusion. Was Kaun actually expecting someone? Or had something happened to him? Afterall, to the clown’s knowledge, or to anyone that actually lived there’s knowledge; Kaun wasn’t the type to leave his front door unlocked.
“Hello? Kauny boy? It’s me Laughing Jack, where are you buddy?” Laughing Jack asked as he wandered in, carefully closing the door behind him. “Hellllooooo Kauny boy, come out, come out, wherever you are” he cooed out playfully, only much to his disappointment, heard no reply. “Huh, strange, usually he would’ve noticed me by now, oh well, guess I’ll just search the house till I find him I suppose” he told himself. Laughing Jack began searching the house, room after room, until he managed to find himself in the study. This wasn’t very fun not having someone to play with him. He sighed sadly from boredom, laying back his against a wall from disappointment. “I don’t get it, he’s always here” the twisted clown pouted. He figured he’d wait here for a little bit before searching the rest of the area. That was until rather suddenly, without any kind of warning whatsoever, he felt something move behind his back, startling him. “What the?!” he blurted out as his back seemed to almost sink into the wall a little.
This caused the monochrome clown to jolt slightly, jumping up as he then whirled around, seeing the bookshelf slide out of the way, revealing a secret passage hidden behind it. “Ooooo, what’s this I wonder?” he wondered to himself. To which he then grinned widely, revealing his jagged teeth, before he headed into the passage, and made his way down the hidden stairwell. He followed it until he had reached the secret level. Laughing Jack had never been this far into the house before, so nothing around him was familiar to him at all. This caused the monochrome clown to frown and scratched his hair. ‘Now, where could that boy be I wonder?’ he thought to himself, as he then shrugged lazily, and began wandering about aimlessly. Or at least that was until suddenly, he heard Kaun’s voice coming from one of the rooms. Laughing Jack reached for the door handle and was about to head in, but paused, realizing there was someone else in there with him. ‘Hello, what’s going on here?’ he thought, as he pressed himself against the door to listen better. “Didn’t you have a crush on someone from around here? C’mon Kaun, what did you think I meant?” Barry asked.
Kaun nervously rubbed his gloved hands over each other “wha, where did you hear that?” Kaun inquired hesitantly. “Does it really matter?” Barry asked “yes, to me it does” Kaun protested “so, it Is true then?” Barry managed. “What? What the hell gave you that impression?” Kaun blurted out “well, you’re not really denying it…so it must be…so who is she?” Barry asked leaning in, grinning and draping an arm over Kaun’s shoulder. Kaun glared slightly “I think you’ve been hanging out with Luke too long, and it’s not a crush” Kaun protested. “Oh, so Now you deny it? C’mon Kaun, I told you some of my darkest secrets” Barry told him. Laughing Jack blinked ‘awwww how cute, my little Kauny boy has a crush on somebody? I know I shouldn’t, but oh what the heck, how bad could it be?” he thought as he listened in.
“Besides, it wouldn’t matter anyway, he’d probably hate me if he ever found out” Kaun sighed sadly lowering his head, gripping the can of soda in his hand. Barry blinked before moving closer, causing Kaun to try to inch back. “Wha, what?” the raven haired teen protested “he huh?” Barry inquired simply. He then abruptly grabbed the bottom of Kaun’s jacket, as well as the shirt that he was wearing underneath, and lifted it up almost completely in a rather swift motion, before Kaun had so much as time to react. This made the boy become rather flustered “gahh b, Barry, what the hell?!” he protested. Barry arched a brow and lowered it “either you’re a very flat chested girl? Or you’re a little gay boy” Barry told him flatly. Kaun’s blinked flustered as hell, absently reaching for his knife on the table, but Barry saw it and quickly pinned down his wrist. “Oh no you don’t, you’re not getting out of this That easily, so which is it?” Barry told him teasingly. Kaun of Rain struggled defiantly “dammit this isn’t funny, get the ******** offa me, or I’m gonna tell Dark Clown about this” Kaun protested angrily. “Heh, go ahead and tell him, what’s he gonna do about it?” Barry spoke evilly “fine, in that case, maybe I’ll tell Slenderman” Kaun protested.
“Why are you getting soo uptight and defensive about this? It’s just a simple question” Barry told him. “Although, technically speaking, I could always find out the old fashioned way” the neon haired boy teased. Kaun’s eye went wide as a soft gasp escaped his lips “f, fine! I, I’m gay okay?! There’s I said it, you happy now? Now seriously will you get the hell offa me already?” Kaun protested flustered. Barry blinked but chuckled before let go and got off of him “now was that soo hard? So who’s this mystery guy you like soo much?’ he asked. Kaun glared murderously “he can never know do you understand? I’ve already lost enough people in my life, and without him, I can’t be controlled” Kaun explained “controlled? That’s an odd choice of words to describe a guy you like” Barry commented. “Yeah well, I have my reasons for saying that” Kaun explained calmly “oh alright fine, I won’t tell him, but I think, maybe one of these days you should” Barry replied.
Kaun sighed in defeat, before glancing up at him “okay fine, just…promise me you won’t tell Toby?” he inquired, to which Barry blinked in surprise. “Toby, y, you mean like Toby Rogers? As in Ticci Toby?!” he blurted out. “Why is that such a shock?” Kaun asked “well, it’s just that, I just figured you’d be more into someone, a little more ….you know….sane? Like Masky or Hoody or… something” Barry told him. Kaun’s gaze dimmed slightly “sane? Really? Who the ******** in this whole town is mentally sane? We’re all sorts of bat s**t crazy here and besides, he’s really not soo bad, when he’s not trying to hack you to pieces with a hatchet” Kaun confessed. The Monochrome clown blinked upon hearing this, he certainly hadn’t been expecting this, his little buddy had a crush on Ticci Toby. He’d half expected him to say someone else, like maybe the painter, or something like that, since those two seemed to hang out quite a bit, or maybe even Stagetrick mime, but Toby …he certainly hadn’t expected that one.
“Okay, granted, but why Ticci Toby? I just don’t get it” Barry confessed ‘yes, I’d very much like to know that too’ Laughing Jack thought as he continued listening in. Kaun gulped down some of his soda before setting it down “it’s not just one thing Barry; I like quite a few things about him if you must know” Kaun confessed confessed. “like what?” Barry asked confused. “His voice, the way he speaks, the way he can get me to feel better when I’m depressed, his casual carefree attitude, not to mention, how he just seems soo fearless all the time….it probably seems stupid” Kaun explained. Barry listened carefully rubbing his chin, before glancing at his raven haired friend. “hmm, well it seems to me, like you simply admire him, more than really have feelings for him, there’s nothing wrong with idolizing someone” the neon haired teen commented. “Well… I guess” Kaun managed “but, just cuz you admire the guy, that doesn’t really make you gay dude” Barry commented.
“Actually it does, if I imagine Toby doing to me, well, what Luke did to you” the raven haired teen confessed. “Wait, hold one, soo you mean to tell me, that you think Ticci Toby is….sexy?” Barry asked seeming a little weirded out. Kaun calmly frowned and arched a brow “yes? Is that Really so shocking?” he asked. “A little bit, Man, you must hide it Really well, I bet you he probably has no idea that you even feel this way towards him” Barry told the raven haired teen. “Exactly, and he’s never going to, because he’d probably want nothing to do with me if he found out, and I’d rather have him in my life and oblivious to my feelings for him, then not in my life at all” Kaun confessed. Barry went quiet at this, before going over and grabbing Kaun by the arm, pulling him up off the couch; and before Kaun had a chance to protest, the neon haired boy pulled the raven haired boy into his arms in a consoling embrace, cradling the back of Kaun’s head. “B, Bones?” he asked “I know how you feel, why do you think I haven’t said anything to Luke yet?” he asked. Laughing Jack inched away from the door, biting his lip and drumming his fingers together nervously, considering that he had heard it all, and he was soo terrible at keeping secrets. He just hoped the subject wouldn’t come up, but he didn’t want Kaun to know that he had heard everything. So he decided it was best to leave, before anyone found out he was there. He quickly made his way out of the house, and took off back to Nightshade’s Hollow. Hopefully, he wouldn’t have to worry about Ticci Toby, finding out about his little buddy’s secret.
