TW: mentions of self inflicted stims 

CW: Mild Bullying

"James has gone nonverbal", Fray said to everyone after school. "So try to do sign language with them. Sound is not their best friend at the moment." Of course,everyone respected it as they all learnt to accept James for his differences. Alex signed a bit to James.

Hey James

Hey. You okay?

Yeah. Just stressed Alex innit.

You want to go home with me and Fray.

Sure

Whose house should we go to?

Fray's. It's quieter.

Okay then

You need to be in a calmer situation. Let's go quickly.

Okay Alex. Can we leave?

Sure.

After a while,Alex,James and Fray managed to get home. It was quieter than usual after the school trip since everyone was too tired to function. Alex then signed:

James. What do you want to do?

I just want to lie down. I'm way too tired after what has happened.

Okay. I'm just going to speak to Fray for a bit.

Okay.

Alex walked into the kitchen where Fray was looking down on the floor. He looked silently at Alex,not wanting to upset James.

Hey. Fray. What happened today in Biology? I was trying to find Stew and Willow.

Some random idiot tried to bash some pans together,causing James to run out. Everyone was laughing at them as they were sobbing. I managed to find them,hiding in the toilets.

Oh no. Who was it?

I don't know who it was. It was someone in me and James class either way.

Oh. Who do we know that's in our class?

Minx,Puffy and Gee. Minx got their first detention for punching the idiot i'll ask them.

Okay. Text them when you can. Did James do anything bad to himself when he was in the toilets.

Not that I was aware of.

Oh okay then. I'll check for you.

Don't touch him for a while though he's upset though. You know how he gets.

I Understand.stressed.

Okay. Sorry.

It's fine. I can text Minx now if you want to.

Please do.

Fray got out their phone in order to text Minx.
