After the X games.

After winning the X games, Bradley started being distant but wasn't stuck up about losing either, I started thinking maybe he was jealous or envious of us? Turns out it was much more than sour feelings....



Walking to class with Pete and Bobby, books in hand, lost in thought. I felt a tap on my shoulder I turn to Bobby "yo you good man? You seem..? Tense? Or In your own world?" Bobby said to me with a confused look

We walk inside and sit down

"I'm okay Bobby, just thinking." I say looking towards Bradley seat

Bobby takes notice of it. "You sure man? You keep staring at Bradley or his seat when he doesn't show up?"

"Do I?" I say confused, to be honest I didn't think I stared at him that much

"Yea, like your worried bout him or something" Bobby say leaning back on the bench

"I mean I guess? Haven't you noticed after the X games he doesn't torment us or mock us or anything recently?"

Pete chimes in "Yea actually? It's been kinda weird without him tormenting us anymore like he's a whole different person."

"See? I'm not the only one who thinks that. But haven't you noticed his buddy's show up to class but Bradley doesn't? Or that we don't see him around anymore? Like he just disappeared?" I say with a curious look

"Whoa, now that you point it out? That's kinda weird? I mean we could ask his buddies later after class? If it bugs you that much." Bobby says

"Yea maybe they know what happened to him?" Pete says before the professor walks in

"Okay we're going to be doing a pop quiz- so get your number 2 pencils-"

Timeskip (too lazy, it's to late at night)

The bell rings as we pack our stuff and I rush after Bradley's buddies before they walk off

"Hey tank!" I yell out to them

They all turn back, looking confused but also a bit sad.

"What's good max?" Tank says

"Hey, I noticed Bradley hasn't shown up recently, is everything okay?" I ask worried

"Well..." tank trails off looking at the others, all with worried looks on there faces

"We don't really know. He hasn't wanted to leave his room back at the gamma house." Tank says

"What? Why? Is he okay?"

"He said he was sick but.. We've tried to make him come out but he turns us away." Tank says with a sad look

"Anyways we got to get to our classes-" tank says before I cut him off
"What if I came to check on him?" I blurt out

The whole group, even Bobby and Pete all gave me a confused look.
"I mean you can if you want we're not gonna stop you." Tank said before they all walked off

"Okay I'll stop by later!" I yell making sure they heard me

"That was out of pocket." Bobby says standing behind me

"What? How so?" I say a bit offended

"Well Bradley was your enemy for like the longest time since we started college. So it's weird for you to worry for him."

"Yea Bobby has a point." Pete seconds

"Putting differences aside, he's still a person." I say walking to my next class

Timeskip (Srry just really lazy)

I show up on my skateboard outside the gamma house, I knock on the door and tank opens the door.

"H-hi" I say nervously. I've never been in this house before it's only natural that I'm a bit nervous

"Hey, come in" tank say opening the door further and motioning his arm for me to come in

"Thanks." I say walking inside

"His doors upstairs down on the far left." Tank says before walking out the door

"Wait? Where are you going?" I ask puzzled

"I gotta go run some errands." He says closing the door behind him

"Uh. Okay?" 

I look around dark reds, browns, and yellows everywhere. Red rug on the stairs leading down to the main room tapestry's hanging with the gamma logo brown wood floors and stairs, like it was out of a fairytale

I make my way upstairs toward Bradley's room. I walk down the hall and knock on the door. "Bradley? Are uh you there? It's been awhile since you showed up to class?.." I say a bit worried. Who knows what's on the other side of the door.

No response. not a sound.
I knock again, "Bradley look. We're all worried for you, are you okay in there?"

Again, no answer.

"I'm coming in alright?.." I say waiting a few seconds before opening the door.
