Act like it.

Carter's POV:
Beckett
Beckett
*leans at the door frame* Hello to you too Carter.
The last I saw him was two years back. He disappeared after the winter carnival. Rumors said he got kicked out.
Rumors were rumors.
In real, I was the one who saw him last.
The one and only.
Carter
Carter
Look who's here!
Carter
Carter
Is that first-ever-clown-named-Liam's-long-lost-twin-brother?
Beckett
Beckett
Twin?
He left the clown part just like that? But that was the main part of the welcome ceremony speech I threw just now for him though.
I was sad. Big time.
Carter
Carter
You both look alike. A lot. I mean it's getting more evident when your puberty hits hard like anything I have never seen before, Becky.
Beckett
Beckett
*coughs* Ahem.
The name 'Becky' do made him feel things.
Nothing good. Just awkwardness and embarrassment was what filled him in, in current, if I knew well.
Beckett
Beckett
Liam is–
Carter
Carter
–I forgot you just got your own entry ticket to school the very latest, Mr. Suspended and now's new labeled transfer student.
Carter
Carter
Liam is my best–
Beckett
Beckett
Brother.
Was he completing my sentence? Liam was hot. I could never ever call him or even consider him as my brother in this lifetime. Scratch that! It was not even an option! EW.
Carter
Carter
EW. No, he is not my bro–
Beckett
Beckett
He is MY brother. No twin. Just brother.
Carter
Carter
How can I be aware you are saying the truth? And you are straight away expecting me to believe in your lies?
Carter
Carter
Who do you think you are?
Beckett
Beckett
You said it for yourself. We look alike. For more info, check our last names. Or you better call my brother and ask him in person.
Beckett
Beckett
He joined here after I got 'kicked out,' as students gossip. It's been two years.
Carter
Carter
Feels like decade without your annoying presence though. Your last name is Henderson? If I remember correct?
Beckett
Beckett
Got right, but that's in the past. Now it's Damien.
It was indeed Liam's last name.
Carter
Carter
And Damien is...?
Beckett
Beckett
My second dad. Liam's my step-brother.
Carter
Carter
That makes sense.
Carter
Carter
You got most of Liam's features.
Indeed. I sometimes tend to look at Liam up as if he got tower for a height, breaking my neck at the process. 6'1’’ feet is what they were. When you looked from far, they would seriously look like a two plastic surgery undergone mannequins.
But the closer you looked, the more you would realise they both got 'polar opposite' for the detailed features in them.
Beckett
Beckett
He got mine.
Carter
Carter
No way! HE got most of Liam's dominant features, right guys?
The class was empty.
Carter
Carter
*starts speaking with more and more of defensive hand gestures* It takes just a hello?
Beckett
Beckett
Huh?
Carter
Carter
Just a hello from you and the humans who were present here for an eternity, the so-called buddies of yours all started automatically moving on to their respective pre-planned destination, a.k.a. the cafeteria? The heck?
Beckett
Beckett
What can I say? Magic Carter.
Carter
Carter
Now you all know how to move? Then why staring at my mouth for so freaking long?
My words were reflected, but only were listened by the walls. Seemed like it.
Screaming at the walls wouldn't do any good to me anyways.
Beckett
Beckett
Sensing the tension, they all ran as far as they could before their whole life flashes in front of their own eyes by your mere presence, Carter.
Beckett
Beckett
Let it go.
Beckett
Beckett
But coming to think of it, it's like as if the whole damn population witnessed a glory couple and be hurry burry scattering to give us some god-damn privacy.
Carter
Carter
And your point is?
Beckett
Beckett
*walks towards teacher's log, but alternatively stops at the place where Carter stood*
Beckett
Beckett
It's for good.
Carter
Carter
It's for good or else I would have created a huge scene, like how a school's queen bee in a typical teenage drama used to create a cyclone of chaos for a no matter.
Beckett
Beckett
*laughs*
Did I said it loud?
Carter
Carter
Wait, ain't people will be awestruck standing in front of the couple and worship?
Beckett
Beckett
You watch too many series and stuffs, Carter. But yeah.
Beckett
Beckett
Kind of.
His tone was normal, yet satisfying. I don't know if the satisfaction I felt is from the rare mate tone of his or his voice itself.
Carter
Carter
Rough and deep.
Beckett
Beckett
Mm?
I said it loud again?
Carter
Carter
Er… Nothing. Got little distracted.
His voice was deep to the point my submissive side may unleash at any point of time. I don't do BDSM or own any stuff related to it, but I would like to play at least once in my life if I got any chance, calling my name.
Carter
Carter
Coming to think of it, they do left us two alone in this room, setting out such an intense atmosphere? Who are you kidding?
Beckett
Beckett
'Cause we aren't one dummy. A couple.
Beckett
Beckett
And also, we both are boys.
Beckett
Beckett
It's obvious.
Carter
Carter
Oh.
Beckett
Beckett
Oh? Cat caught your tongue?
Carter
Carter
Over?
Beckett
Beckett
Over with the thought of us being a couple?
Carter
Carter
Are you crazy? No way.
Beckett
Beckett
Whatever you say.
It was easy for him to joke about these things, but not for me.
It hurts.
It hurts that I couldn't be myself around humans and constantly had to hid my identity of who I actually was.
Carter
Carter
I hate you!
Beckett
Beckett
I hate you more. You have no idea.
Something stung. My heart?
Carter
Carter
Stop with the chit-chat and let's get back to being enemies.
Beckett
Beckett
*mimics Carter* "Ain't people will be awestruck standing in front of the couple and worship?" who started the bull?
That escalated quick. Zero to 180 degree? Just like that?
Carter
Carter
Bull? *grabs Beckett's neck*
Carter
Carter
One word, and you are dead.
Beckett
Beckett
Can you c-cut with t-that c-crap? *manages to speak*
Carter
Carter
*releases*
Beckett
Beckett
*his turn to grab Carter's neck, but in a weak stance, so he won't get hurt* The one who played the 'curious and friendly kid' card is you.
Carter
Carter
*shoves back Beckett with lot more force by grabbing his throat with full of fist for the second time*
Beckett
Beckett
And a-again, the one w-who p-plays the villain card i-i-s also-o you a-alone.
Carter
Carter
*tightens grip*
Beckett
Beckett
*hoarse voice, manages to pull off his question in crystal to affect Carter by his words* Got multiple personalities, Carter?
Carter
Carter
*froze*
My world stopped.
Beckett
Beckett
*Threatens in addition to the hard grip on Carter* And stop messing with my brother.
Beckett
Beckett
Calling him with names. Clown? I don't like it, both you and the fact he cares about you. I know you too reciprocate the same.
Beckett
Beckett
But, *gets dangerously close*
Beckett
Beckett
Act like it.
Beckett
Beckett
Carter.
Beckett
Beckett
*throws the lifeless body and leaves the room and Carter cold*
