R: Someone bullies Nick for being gay and Nick and Chris comfort him.

Nicks pov:
I walked in the school hallway with my head low. I had the crappiest day ever. Well how to I start. I woke up by Chris literally yelling in my after I overslept. Since I'm the oldest I always wake up first to later wake up Chris and Matt. They were both pretty quick in getting ready in the morning anyways. So after out panicked breakfast Matt drove us to school and on the first lesson we had a pop up quiz in History class. Well that didn't end up well and I'm pretty sure I failed. At lunch I noticed that I had forgot my lunch so I had to share with Matt. At least I was grateful that he would wanna share with me. And about Matt, I caught him crying in bed last night so I'm still worried. I tried to get it out of him but he wouldn't say anything, so I just stayed with him for the night. After that Chris and I were walking to our next class which was English. Everything went well until Chris's allergies started acting up and he started having a nose bleed. Again, I had to follow him to his locker to get him cleaned up and find his allergy medicine. Don't get me wrong, I love my brothers but sometimes I just need a break. Just one more lesson and I'm good to go. I gasped as I bumped into someone, falling to the floor bringing my books with me. "Watch it idiot!" The guy yelled. "Sorry, my bad" I said before starting to pick up my books. "Yeah it is! And look what you did" he yelled again. I looked up at him to see he had spilled some of his coffee on his shirt. God could this day get any worse? I would have to keep that thought. "I'm so sorry honestly" I spoke quietly. He just rolled his eyes. "You gay people are always so fucking clumsy" he spat. I felt my eyes widen. "What?" I asked. "You heard me. Or did your gay ears not understand? I wouldn't be surprised. Y'all cant do anything right. Fucking asses all of you" the guy snarled. Just when I was about to say something I heard a familiar voice. "Nick you okay?" it was Matt. I looked back at him shaking my head aggressively, telling him to leave. I seriously couldn't stand him getting hurt. Me alone, fine but no one lays a hand on neither Chris or Matt. "Ooh see who joined the party" the guy laughed. Matt looked at me confused before helping me picking up my books. "Matt seriously get the hell out of here" I whispered. "But whyyy, we're having so much fun! Me, fat gay kid and his annoying brother Matty" he spoke the end with a baby voice. I knew Matt hated that. "Don't call him that!" Matt shrieked, growing protective.

Chris's pov:
I came out of my classroom to see everyone formed in a circle. My chest tightened when I was the three people in the middle. I could see Nick was on the verge of tears with Matt looking angry. The third guy was known as the school bully, Bryan. He used to pick on me, Nick and Matt all the time before because of our height and Nick being gay. "He's just a pathetic gay kid, no one cared about him" I heard the bully say. My fists clenched. There's no way he can say stuff like that in front of me.. even more in front of Nick. "Hey doucebag!" I shouted. Everyone attention turned to me before I punched the guy straight across his face. He grabbed his nose in anger before launching himself at me. I was soon pinned to the ground with a fist constantly making contact with my face. I groaned every time it hit me. That was before Matt pulled him off of me. "GET OFF OF HIM?!" he yelled. Bryan soon switched his attention to Matt instead. I took that moment to look at Nick. He had tears streaming down his face, he was screaming and looked almost terrified. "NICK HELP ME GET HIM OFF" I yelled in panic. He was a lot stronger than the two of us so it was a challenge. "DONT TOUCH ME YOU DIRTY CREATURE" Bryan shouted at Nick. I froze. I could see Nicks expectation change. He went from upset to straight up gloomy. "You have no right to say that about him" I whispered angrily. I felt my nose drip with blood from all of the hits. We were interrupted when two teachers came running into the circle. "NICOLAS, MATTHEW, CHRISTOPHER, BRYAN EACH ONE OF YOU, OFFICE NOW" Mrs. Snow shouted. Nick helped me up before grabbing Matt's one arm and pulling it over his shoulder. Bryan was sent in first and when he left the office his parents were waiting for him outside. They looked really mad. Their parents apologized to the three of us before leaving. Then we were called in. Nick sat in the middle, I was on his right and Matt was on the left.

Nicks pov:
Mrs Snow asked us what happened and I tried to lie. "We were just walking through the hallway when I bumped into him... after that he just got mad" I said. Everything was going well until Matt spoke up. " That's not what happened" he said as I glared at him. God I was gonna leave him on the sidewalk if he tells her. "No? Then tell us the real story Matthew" she simply said. "Bryan was making rude comments to Nick so both Chris and I got mad... but Chris started it before I could... I had to pull them off each other but then he went for me instead.. we just didn't want him to be mean to Nick" he said. I groaned. Chris looked over at me before giving me a light smile. I knew if Matt didn't tell her, Chris would. So I had no shot.

Matt drove us home and I helped Chris and Matt clean up themselves. "You two are need to understand that you're not allowed to stand up for me" I said. "And why is that?" Chris asked. "Because of you do this is what happens" I shrieked. "It's worth it if you're okay..." Matt said. I sighed before pulling the two into a hug. "I'm the oldest I shouldn't be crying over stupid shot like this" I chuckled before wiping away my tears. "You can cry too Nick, and also. Two minutes." Matt spoke. I chuckled again. "Yeah... come on we wanna be here for you sometimes too" Chris piped up. Matt nodded and I sighed in defeat. We laid down on my bed with my squeezed in the middle. I just let it out. I realized that... it's okay to cry... because I've got the two best brother by my side who I know would never make fun of me for it. I can count on them always.
