"Tell me... what'd you do?" Yoru asked, sitting on the cold cement floors of a dimly lit prison cell in a section far from any one else, including guards, with his back to the bars.
"I told you. Nothing!" Geno answered back, sitting in a separate cell with his back against the bars. It was such that Geno and Yoru were sitting back to back.
"Your parents called the feds on you?"
"They got worried I guess.."
"Doubt it. Your papa didn't seem too worried about you."
"You went to my house?" Geno asked. Yoru just nodded. "....Dad doesn't care, but mom's..."
"Overprotective?"
"You could say."
Yoru stretched, "Well... Since we're gonna be here a while... Wanna talk?"
"Bout?"
"College and the fight and junk.."
Geno twiddled his thumbs. "It doesn't really sound like you care all that much."
"I'll prove to you that I do later..."
Geno looked over his shoulder before shrugging. "....About college... Isn't there maybe one we can go to together?"
"I'm tired of it all..." Yoru sighed. "Why don't we go to Prier College?"
"Pri...Prier?!" Geno was shocked. Not only was it elite, but the college was off the main part of the city across a bridge on a private isle manufactured to be completely weather proof but for harmless weather.
"Why not?"
"It's.. elite."
"Too dumb to study?"
Geno pouted, sinking down. "No..." He answered softly. "I'm just... not confident we can get in... Both of us.."
"I'm sure I can." Yoru said, not even a sound of confidence in his voice. He didn't need it, being a very intelligent study who dumbs himself up for school.
Geno rolled his eyes, "Yeah. YOU can, but I can't...."
"What if I tutor you before the tests?"
"Huh?"
"Yeah, I'll take the test on monday and then I'll tutor you for the next week and then you'll be prepared for it the following monday."
"Okay...." Geno nodded slightly.
A cloud of thick silence fell between them. It was like they had made up and were back together, but Geno was still being doubtful.
"Yoru.... were we dating or just being fling buddies, or what...?"
"Dating." Yoru answered. "Cause I love you."
"You don't go to bed with just anyone?"
"NO!!! You dork!" Yoru shouted. "You're my first."
"Then why are you so freaking good?!"
"I watched a lot of sex tapes."
A cold wind blew across Geno's face. He didn't have the courage to answer that.
