Josh had walked out of his algebra class and headed for his next class in Riverside University High School. He looked down to avoid making eye contact with other students. He didn't want to catch the attention of any of the other students. However, even with these precautions, the task would prove to be impossible. Two upperclassmen pointed at him and laughed as they recognized him.
The two upperclassmen had decided to pick on him beginning with Josh's freshmen year at Riverside. The bullying started when Josh accidentally bumped into one of them while heading to one of his classes during freshmen year. Josh had said 'excuse me', but it didn't matter. They had decided that Josh would be their victim. They looked at him and laughed. They mocked him saying 'excuse me' and from that moment on, they bullied him whenever they saw him.
"Hey, looked bro it's the dumbass, " said the upperclassmen.
"The fuck are you looking at, you faggot, " yelled a boy.
"Yeah, be a man, bitch, " yelled another boy.
Two upperclassmen had surrounded Josh in the hallway. They pushed him into a locker.
"Come on y'all, I didn't even say anything to y'all, " begged the sophomore.
"Shut the fuck up. Aye Derrick, I should slap his broke ass, " said one of the upperclassmen.
"Do it cuz, " said one of the upperclassmen.
"BRO WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HIM, " screamed a voice from down the hallway. The upperclassmen looked towards the voice. The voice came from the high school's quarterback, Shawn.
"What it do, Shawn, " said one of the upperclassmen. He reached his hands out to dap up Shawn.
"Cuz, let Josh go," said Shawn. The upperclassmen looked at both Josh and shawn with a puzzled look.
"You know him. The fuck? " said one of the upperclassmen.
"Yes, I do, " said Shawn with a fierce look on his face.
"Shit, my bad, " said the upperclassmen. The upperclassmen let Josh go and backed off.
"See you at practice, cuz, " said the upperclassmen to Shawn.
"For sure, " said Shawn. Shawn looked at me.
"You good? They had your ass shooked. On what? " said Shawn with a chuckle. Josh played it off with sarcasm.
"Nah bro. I was ready to get down head ass, " replied Josh. Shawn and Josh walked to their Geometry class, which was right nearby. Maddie was standing by the door of the geometry class.
"Them juniors was trying to mess with you, weren't they?" asked Maddie. Josh silently nodded his head.
"Ugh. I do not like that boy. He tried to mess with me during first hour. Talking about he got a boy he could put me on with like ew boy! I will beat the fuck out of you and shove this shoe down your throat " exclaimed Maddie. Josh laughed.
"Girl, you always trying to beat on somebody, " said Josh.
"Nah Joshyy. They be pushing it, " said Maddie. Josh and Maddie walked into Geometry class. Ms. Ramirez was handing out worksheets.
"Ok class, today we will be working on word problems, " said Ms. Ramirez. The whole class groaned.
"Oh hell no, " exclaimed Maddie.
"Let's gooo," exclaimed a freshman in the class. Shawn turned to the freshman.
"And This is why we have freshman kill day. To prevent y'all bullshit, " said Shawn to the freshman.
