-Schlatts pov-

Wilbur had raged quit after I became the drift master at Mario cart, he was now sitting on his bed reading a book as I played against bots.

"GODDAMIT!" I groan, "these dumb bots are hacking."

Wilbur puts down his book, "Schlatt, remember when you used to ask me for money..."

I turn my head to him, "yeah, back when I was a-" I cough and do a deep voice, "true man."

"We'll go with that.." Wilbur sighs, "I never gave you the money."

"Oh," I stand up, putting the controller into the slot, "forget about it."

"No, I'm going to give it to you." Wilbur looks down, "it's for your sisters... hospital bill.."

I look at Wilbur, "Wilbur, look-"

"No, you need it." Wilbur yells at me, "while you were gone I realized how much i needed you!" He continues, "half of the time I kept thinking about what we used to be, you were the school bully and I was the kid that would do anything for anyone so I wouldn't get in trouble or hurt! And when Jared came into my life again you changed!"

"Wilbur."

"No! Don't Wilbur me Schlatt, I almost got raped before I came to your house with only a sweater on, I still have all of your clothes!" Tears started to form in Wilbur's eyes, "Schlatt, now that I'm your boyfriend I think.. it would be best if we keep it a secret."

I walk over and sit next to him, "that would be best."

Wilbur looks at me, "Schlatt... why did you want to help me?"

I paused, "well... you've always helped me. Even if that meant you copying down everything in my notebook so I can get a good grade, but when Jared was about to punch you... I... i wanted to help, do you a favor."

"You thought you had a girlfriend.."

I chuckle, "sadly i didn't." I sigh, "Wilbur, how long have you've know Jared?"

Wilbur shrug's, "around... 4-ish years."

"How long has this been happening?" I asked.

"3 1/2..." Wilbur shivers, "he always said he loved me after he would hit me."

I hug Wilbur, "you don't have to deal with him anymore, I promised your dad I would keep you safe."

Wilbur giggles, "Schlatt... thank you."

Wilbur's phone starts to ring, he pulls away from my hug and picks up his phone next to him. He stood up, putting his phone to his right ear.

"Hello?" He asked, "yes this is William why?" William? "Niki?!" He sounded happy, "Wait your coming to America! That's great!" Wilbur looks at me, "Yeah I'm doing alright, how's James?" He nods, "that's good, that's good. Well I have someone you would love to meet when you get here, maybe we can get some coffee or something like that." Wilbur paused, "wait who's coming to America as well?" Wilbur looked away from me, "she can't! Remember what happened last time she talked to me! Wilbur sighs, "Ok... we'll talk about it in a week see you soon!"

And he ends the call, looking back at me as He puts his phone in his back pocket, I questioned, "William?"

Wilbur sighs, "I forgot to tell you this," he explains, "Niki, my friend who just called calls me William since that's what my parents called me."

"Who's James?"

"Childhood friend." Wilbur sits back down next to me, "The girl I was talking about her name is sally, totally a wanker and is or was heads over heels for me. Her parents forced my parents to make me marry her when I was only 11."

"What the hell?!" I yelled, "maybe it's better if we don't talk to her."

"I agree..." Wilbur yawns, "I'm going to hop in a shower, make your self comfortable."

I put a thumbs up as Wilbur stands up and leaves his room. He shuts the door behind him. I sigh, I feel bad..
