Abia murmured questioningly: "What a sweet boy… but why did he look so beaten up?" The question put Boon in a bind; he couldn't just tell her the whole story, and a lie slipped out automatically: "Uh, we had a fight." Abia: "You fought?" Disbelief was audible in her voice. Boon: "Yeah…" Abia: "Are you close enough to fight? Are you friends? lol"
Friends?
Boon hummed before he answered: "Well… apparently."
Apparently.
Apparently that was the right word for it, apparently they had become 'friends' in a way where Boor's friends teased him for texting someone other than them or Jibbble. In a way where Boon had to mute his phone because he actually paid attention to class - unlike Boor.
Well. It was not like Boor had to keep his guard up at all times, he was old enough to know when to walk away.

Ingar was shoving Boor's shoulder in a wriggly motion as he whined: "You can't be for real Boor! Come on! What about meee?.."
Boor: "When have you ever begged for my attention"
Ingar: "I can't have some new girlfriend snatch you away from me?"
Boor: what? Its a guy."
Ingar looked a bit stunned before correcting himself "Then, boyfri-"
Boor: "No! No! Not a girlfriend nor a boyfriend damn it, its just a friend—"
'The heck? A friend?'
Boor: "uh-"
'say it's someone you know'
Boor: "—yeah"
…
Ingar opened his mouth again. However, because Boor was very used to this, he learned to let the things that go in one ear out in the other.
Ingar: " Actually, i have a new friend too."
Boor: " Oh yeah?"
Ingar: "Yeah. He's nice, He complimented me…"
Boor: "cool."
Ingar: "That can't be the only thing you have to say about this!"
he wrapped both of his arms around Boor from behind and squeezed tightly
Boor: "What else do you want me to say?!"
Ingar: "be a little jealous or something!"
Boor: "Are you in love with me or something?! Get off!"
Ingar laughed and tickled Boor by the armpits "Who knows, brat?!"
The school day was over and Boor sat down on a bench on the way to his home where, coincidentally, Ivan was sitting.
Boor sighed and leaned back on the bench. He reached into his pockets to find his phone but remembered that he had put it in his backpack. Before he could unzip his backpack Ivan asked or rather commented hesitantly: "..you seem annoyed"
Boor: "Do I?"
He always does.
Boor: "I have a sissy friend who's way too clingy"
Ivan: "Maybe she likes you"
Boor: "…Its a dude
Ivan: "Oh"
Ivan: "Maybe he lik-"
Boor cried out: "not you too! Damn it! No! He's my friend! Ingar's my friend! Boor's my friend, they're friends!!!"
Boor was panting for air and looked over to Ivan who was visibly confused and nervous.Right. This kid didn't know why he was being yelled at, nor is he at fault.
Boor calmed himself, he didn't want to lash out at Ivan.
Ivan: "My friends are called Jacob, Cappie and Kayson"
Boor: "Cool."
Ivan: "They come to me every break"
Boor patted Ivan's head, ignoring the flinch when his hand touched the hair.
"Really? That's good"
Ivan smiled for a bit and then said: "Mom bought icecream"
Boor: "Mars? Cactus? Lemon?"
Ivan: "cornetto"
Boor: "Nooooo…"
