<Travis Pov> 

It was a few minutes before lunch ended and I thought I was going to be able to avoid him all day, but just as I turned the corner, there he was. Larry. Fucking. Johnson. I couldn’t bear to see him today. Ever since I first saw him, there was always something. For fucks sake, I don’t even know what it is. I can’t even look at him without feeling scared..no not scared, nervous?? I couldn’t tell you but this isn’t gonna end well..he hates me and I can’t blame him. I’m an asshole and I deserve it. Well let's see how this goes down I guess.

 “Move it, Johnson.” Travis scolded, pushing Larry out of his way. “Fuck off Travis, I’m not in the mood to deal with your bullshit.” Larry spat back, hitting Travis in the arm, Travis quickly turning back around. “Look. I’m not trying to start shit so buzz off” Travis huffed, flipping him off and walking away with an eye roll.

Travis walked off ,flipping me off as he did so. “See preacher boy’s auditude hasn’t changed much” Larry snickered, turning his head to Sal. “Look he’s working on it I swear, and you push too far sometimes. It’s not just him, Larry” Sal explained, letting out a deep sigh. I huffed as I rolled my eyes. “You have been saying that for almost a month now, Sal. He clearly isn’t gonna change”. Sal gave me a side eye, crossing his arms. “Oh come on, at least he didn’t start a huge fight like he normally would! That’s Improvement.” Sal said proudly “Just give him a chance. Maybe if you try to be a bit nicer to him, he won’t be such an ass to you,” Sal suggested. I scoffed “Ok, yea sure. I can try to be friends with church boy, but I’m making no promises that I won’t punch him in the face if he gets on my nerves”. Sal laughed at my remark “Okay fine, but don’t start shit for no reason,” Sal stated seeming pretty serious. I nodded “You really want me to be friends with Travis, huh?” I asked more of a rhetorical question, almost laughing at my own statement. Sal nodded enthusiastically “I think if you gave him the chance, you guys would get along better than you think” Sal started seeming very confident in his words. I just  simply nodded. “Ok, we’ll see about that. Okay, I have to go to class see ya after school Sal!” I said waving to Sal as he made his way down the hall. I’m really gonna do this. I’m going to try and befriend Travis. Travis, out of all people. There’s no doubt this will be interesting.

I thought I was finally able to avoid Larry for the rest of the day until last period came, I had completely forgotten that me and Larry had History class together, I was not going to make it through that class. I made my way into my class and there he was, wait..why is he in the seat next to mine.? I don’t remember him ever being sat there..Oh god this is a nightmare. Class went on as it usually does boing lectures, Dumd history facts, but then all of a sudden “Oh that’s right, Class were going to be having a new student joining us next week and I need two student to show him around” The teacher said looking around the classroom “Hmm..How about Larry and Travis! You two will be showing our new student around next week on monday” The teacher said, giving them a warm smile. Oh no this is not happening I can’t be next to him for that long, I awkwardly turned to look at Larry who was equally annoyed as I was. I Raised my hand “Mrs. Does it have to be me and Larry that go together?” I asked hoping she would choose someone else, “Yes Travis, Now I don’t want to hear any complaining for either of you, Do I make myself clear?” The teacher said firmly.

Me and Larry both nodded and look to eachother, This was gonna be torture.

Oh god, This was terrible I was going to have to show someone new who I don’t even know around the school and to make it worse it has to be with Travis, I guess this gives my chance to try and talk and get to know him a bit better. The bell rang and everyone left through the crowd of people I spotted Travis, “Travis! Travis!” I  yelled, getting the blonde's attention, “Yeah? What do you want? He said, giving me an aggravated glare. “Look, Sal wants me to try and be friends with you so I’m willing to give you the chance to redeem yourself, on monday can you please try to act a bit..friendlier? If you can do that I won’t pull any smart remarks ok?” I put my hand out as if making a deal. “Ok, fine” Travis said shaking my hand “I’ll see you Monday Larry, and for the love of god don’t show up high” Travis said in a joking tone. I laughed at Travis remark “No promises” I joked back, Fuck yea, ok monday is going to go great, Lets just hope the new kid isn’t an ass.
