The Memories We Shared

Chapter One

The Beginning To A New End

(Sal's POV)

I walk into my new class and walk to my seat.

'To be honest I'm glad I switched classes'

I lay my head down not bothered to make eye contact with anyone, I don't really know anyone.

"Good morning class. Quick anouncment, we have a new student with us."

I lift my head up.

"Come to the front sal."

'Ugh.'

I stand up and walk to the front of the class.
I turn and look at everyone. I see people's expressions. Some confused some creeped out, and others.

"Everyone this is sal, make him feel welcome."

I waved.

"What's the mask for freak? Got something to hide?"
People laughed at the comment.

"It's a prostetic, but I don't think you would actually give a shit."

"Language! And Phelps outside. Now!"

The boy roles his eyes and makes his way outside.

"Sorry miss.."

"It's alright just don't do it next time."

I make my way back to my seat and lay my head back down again.

A few seconds later to hear-

"Mr Johnson.. Late again."

"Missed the bus."

"Get to your seat. ."

"Yeah yeah..."

I look at the boy who just walked into the classroom. Our gaze meets. I look down at the desk and shake it off as a weird greet.

--------

I find myself standing against the locker. Scrolling through my phone. I get caught off guard and not realise the guy standing next to me.

"Uh... Hello?"

I turn to see the guy I made eye contact with in my home room.

"Oh um. Hi."

"Heh. Hi, I'm larry."

"Sal."

"Cool name."

"Thanks I guess.."
Awkward....

"Um- so I was- um..."

He kept turning around to his supose friendship group and the girl keeps giving thumbs up.

"So I was wondering if you would like to be friends..."

I look him up and down.

'He's hot I'll take that...'

"Sure.."

A big smile makes its way across his face.

'I like it when he smiles.'

"Would you like to hang out after school?"

"Sure I guess.."

"Sweet."

He smiled again. I took in the details.
His long brown slicked back hair with strands falling down his face.
His deep hazel eyes, If I stared long enough I think I would melt in them.
But at that moment the bell rang. I snapped back into reality not realising that my face was heated up.

"Well see yah!"

I turned away and started to walk to class.

' was i-'

My thought process stop as I got punched in the face by an unknown figure.

"Well, well, well, look what we have here. A freak, what's under that
"Mask" freak?."

"My face so fuck off!"

I get kicked into the gut. I coughed.

"Say what?!"

"I SAID FUCK OFF!"

I get kicked in the gut one more time.

"Tell me to fuck off once more and we'll have some problems.."

I remained silent, holding my stomach.

"That's what I thought. Freak."

I lay on the ground in pain until I hear.

"TRAVIS YOU FUCKING CUNT!"

My head slightly tilted up to see larry shoving travis against the lockers and punching him in the face.

A smile formed on my face.

'Someone stood up for me..'

Travis layed on the ground nearly unconscious but still breathing.

"You dare hurt sal again and Next time you wake up you'll be in a hospital."

Larry walks over to me and picks me up, saying nothing, nor did I.

------
He sets me down on a bench behind the school.

"Are you ok? How badly did he hurt you?"

'The pain went away but I didn't want him to not care for me.. so..'

"It sorta hurts."

"Where?"

"My stomach. I feel like I'm going to throw up."

"Can I see what he has done."

"S-sure.."

He starts to slowly lift up my shirt
I start to blush a bit.

'Nobody has been this close to me.'

He's so close to my prostetic face.

He lays his hand on my stomach.

"Theres a bruse. but it's not big. Don't worry.."

He lightly rubbed my stomach.

I start to blush even more..

"T-thanks..."

He layed his forhead on my prostetic forhead.

"I'd do anything for you sal.."

"You would?"

He looked up at me.

"Fuck yeah dude, i-... i..."

"You?"

"I care for you."

I felt tears start to fall down my face..

"Hay, don't cry. Shh it's ok."

He cupped my prostetic face.

"It's just that, nobody has ever said anything like that to me. Nor has they even cared."

"Well i'm glad to be the first."

He pulled me into a hug and rubbed my back in comfort.

"Thank you for caring."

"I'll do anything for you blue..."

'Blue? H-he called me blue.'

I giggled softly.

'I finally found the love of my life.'
