21 - A Call.

The next morning, i went on another run with Vasco, Jace and Daniel. Jace, Daniel and i were on a break while Vasco did the bars.

Jace was telling us the story of how Vasco became how how is now. The way he got his tattoos were terrible. Some bullies grabbed a knife and carved horrible words deep into Vasco's skin. Words like 'fuck' and 'sex' had been embedded in his skin. Just because Vasco "embarrassed" some freshmen in front of some dumbass seniors. That' why he got tattoos with Jace. To cover up the deep scars.

Vasco....

I looked over to Vasco. He held his legs up as he stood on his hands on the bars. Sweat ran down his forehead but he held up.

Its good to become strong. And people always notice when one becomes strong. But... Vasco, you're different. You became strong to help those that are weak. Some people become strong to get revenge or to show other people wrong. But... Even after the things they did to you, you held your head high and cried in secret.

You're strong not only physically...

I watch as Vasco swings of the bars and looks over to me. I smile, warnly and he returns the smile. I take a small towel from Jace's hands and take it to Vasco.

"Hey...you know its good to rest sometimes right?" I smile wide. I dab to towel on Vasco's forehead, slowly picking up the sweat. Vasco just stares at me as i do so. I smile, "What?"

But before Vasco can answer, I notice Jace pointing at me to get my attention, then towards a road going up a hill. Coming down the road, though, were three motorcycles revving loudly disturbing the peace in the neighborhood. Loud laughter came from the three dimwits riding them too. I knew right away they could only mean trouble...

Jace obviosuly didnt want me to tell Vasco by the way he was waving his arms around. But eventually the idiots on the motorcycles parked somewhere close in an alley and quiet down.

Vasco told me wait and started to make his way over to Jace. I guess the guys recognized Jace because they got up all angry and were going to walk over to him until Vasco showed up. Vasco ask Jace to come with him to the bathroom because it was scary. Jace followed him and told the three idiots and their girlfriends to bug off.

Of course, they didnt listen, though.

The moment Jace and Vasco left to go to the bathroom, i took over the bars but kept an eye on the idiots.

Just as i thought, they idiots walked up to Daniel, confidently and asked him, threateningly to get up and come with them. Like HELL i was going you let him go alone.

"Hey you. Come have a chat-"

"Hey~" i say as i walk over to Daniel and the three idiots.

"Ah-!"

The guys' eyes widen as their eyes land on me. The girls gasp and scowl at me but i pay no mind.

"Oh...Y/n hey..." Daniel says at he looks away from the strangers, nervously. The strangers look at us in disbelief.

"Y-you know him?" The guy with the blue hair, says awkwardly.

"Yea he's my friend." I say, straightforwardly. A blush covers Daniel's cheeks, cutely as i admit him being my friend.

"W-well, we just want to talk to him for a bit, do you mind-?"

"Actually yes, i do mind." I say with a smile. I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn aroun, quickly, and see Jace smiling.

"I'll take it from here." I nod at Jace, and walk back to the bars. I hoist myself up on the bars and sit on them like nothing. I watch the scene unfold before my eyes. I can't hear a thing they say but i notice the scene start with talking and then the blue hair suddenly throws himself at Jace, ready to attack him with a punch.
