Soul Scent SALLY FACE (This Updated Half Way Through)📝📼

I need you more than you need me!

Yeah so this is like an flash back of how that scar Travis gave Sal. TW: Slight homophobia, Cringe and Cursing like always and that's really all I have

This story was rushed and not planned out.

I hate being on the Football team sometimes, I don't want to be associated with them as in "Friend group" it ruined me, everybody has high expectations, not as high as my Dad but...I thought school would be the only place I wouldn't have to worry about looking good for. I guess I was wrong but I just have to live with it.

Sometimes I wonder how I would look and be like if my Mom lived...if she stopped Dad before he started drinking. Look at him now. Look at how much of a shitty kid I am, I'm just a bad person, I wish I could be better.

I remember that one time after school I was playing football with Phillip we weren't really playing, just tossing since he doesn't fully know how to play. Phillip was laughing and kept dropping the ball "Travis you know I can't catch!" I was smiling at him and laughing along with him, he's such a nice sweet person. Phillip is a cool person, he dresses and looks amazing. Especially his warm smiling face and personality...

all of an sudden Nick decided to walk in and grab the ball as he walked with HIS friends. I sighed, not in the mood to be talking to them, the wind blowing in my face, my hair motioning over my eye as Phillip walked and leaned on my side confused but waved and said hey to Nick quietly.

"Aye Travis! Didn't know you liked playing with your boy Nocera back here." Nick's friends behind him were chuckling and laughing behind him quietly while whispering.

Of course, remember how I said people rumored about me and Phillip, that shit spreads fast when an member of the football team(me for example) is involved.

Phillip started messing with the sleeve of my jacket. Phillip gets clingy and touchy a lot, it makes the rumors believeable but back at this time the rumors were still fresh meaning people are more judgy.
I lightly grabbed Phillip's wrist and pulled his hand from my sleeve. He was showing he was bothered for obvious reasons, I was pissed everytime Nick just walked over to me to talk shit. I felt my fingers linger against Phillip's and felt his rings while I was facing the group with my other hand in my pocket "Yeah...sure. What do you want?" My voice sounded annoyed but that's because I was.

Nick held the football and squeezed it lightly before nudging me lightly "Okay. Travis, Dude! You don't need to be all angry about it~ I just wanted to know what you were doing." I hated when he teased me, each time he used that stupid voice, each time I heard his voice echo against my ear. I wanted to grab his throat and pull out his vocal cords, but you know that's a bit graphic so I can't do that, it's unrealistic.

Nick finishes his little laughing session and stands next to my side and speaks up jumping around slightly "Hey look! See that freak over there?"

He pointed at who I now know as Sal. I had a feeling something stupid was about to happen, I tried to grab the ball out of Nick's hands, moving Phillip incase something like an fight started "Nick! Just give me the ball you dickwad!" Before I could grab it Nick starts holding it up above me and continues switching hands before laughing "Dude calm down! Watch ya' language Trav I'm just trying to talk to you!~"

Before I could do anything Nick throws the football and it hits against the side of Sal's mask. Before I could react the group runs away screaming things like "Oh shit!" "Damnnnn!"

I sighed heavily with an pissed expression on my face and grabbed the neck of Nick's jacket before he can turn away laughing.

I probably could have choked him if I pulled hard enough

"Why do you have to be such an BITCH!" I pulled Nick and let go, making him almost fall into the direction of my left side, Phillip watches quietly, messing with his hand and scooting away slowly, running to the bleachers where Sal was. Sal was about to get up and run away but people in his friend group were panicking.

Nick starts laughing quietly As he fixed his hair, catching himself from falling backwards "Woah tough guy, protecting the gays? Maybe you'd understand if you didn't go all soft for that little fag. He can't even try backing you up there!" Nick points over at Phillip who was next to Sal, talking to Sal's friends and explaining everything while an long haired brunette next to Sal was holding an small rag.

Hearing that made me more angry, I wasn't going to throw the first punch, nor get in trouble for his actions

"The only reason why your team is winning games and isn't shitty is because of me, remember that Nick. You're seriously so immature! Gay or not, that's pointless to make fun of! I'm STILL not as useless as you are to count on at play off's and competitions! You're an dumbass if you can't find out why people don't like you! Teammates are just being Teammates and hyping you up for dumb shit to laugh Nick, your basically just on you own."

Nick scoffed and walked off, I really am just bad at proving my point and talking, because that was cringey as shit. I should have just let him walk off. I walked over to Larry "I am so sorry about that, I promise I had no intentions to hurt your friend nor encourage people to hurt him."

I walked off and saw Phillip at the gate waiting for me, one strap of his bag on his shoulder and his blue hair moving with the wind slowly, Phillip had the same soft smile on his face as he stared at me with sweet eyes. As soon as I walked up to the gate and put my arm around Phillip as he talked to me, we decided to walk home together that day.

Sometimes I wish me and Phillip decided to do something else, maybe we could have gone to the band hall and I could have taught him to play drums. Maybe Sal wouldn't have that scar on his face then.
