Henry had been stressed since last night.

Even though he didn't want to, he still studied for a test but only pretended to whine about it but he secretly likes reading but would rather watch cartoons, go to concerts and do other things because he both hates and likes studying but only if there are pictures.

He always felt like he wasn't good enough for his parents.

Henry didn't really get enough sleep since he stayed up studying, he even called Ralph to help because of his dyslexia.

Henry's parents always say that it's an excuse to need help when he's a big boy.

Everything was getting to loud for Henry, he hated it.

Hated feeling like this.

Ralph was talking to the rest of the purple hand gang when he felt someone lean on him and hug him from behind(not a ship).

Ralph already know who it was.

"Hey Henry, you okay?" Ralph asked.

"Tired" Henry mumbled.

"Didn't you get sleep?" Brainy Brian asked.

"No.....I was up all night studying for the test" Henry answered.

"But you hate studying" Aerobic Al said.

Not really' Henry thought.

"I know but I just wanted to get a higher grade" Henry replied.

"Come guys, let's go get lunch before it all finishes" Brian said as everyone except Ralph and Henry left.

"Henry, are you okay?" Ralph asked, worried for his best friend.

"Ralphie?" Henry called as he looked up innocently at his best friend.

'Shit' Ralph thought.

"How old are you feeling buddy?" Ralph asked, already knowing that Henry slipped since that's what Henry calls Ralph when he's little.

"Four....." Henry replied.

"Wanna go home, wanna go to your house" Henry said.

"And we will, after school, you can survive a few hours right?" Ralph asked him.

"Too noisy, ears sensitive" Henry told him.

"Do you have your headphones?" Ralph asked.

"Nwo..... I left it home" Henry said.

"Luckily, I have a pair since I was the one who bought you the headphones" Ralph said as he pulled out a pair and put it over Henry's ears.

"T-thank y-y-you" Henry stuttered.

"You don't have to say thank you since it's hard for you" Ralph reassured.

"Okay, but I want to...." Henry replied as he looked down.

"I didn't say you couldn't" Ralph said.

The duo went to the cafeteria and ate there lunch.

Henry went through the day normally because he had his noise canceling headphones on.

After school he went to Ralph's house, his parents don't really care where he be.

"My parents are at work so what do you want to do today buddy?" Ralph asked.

"Play superhero?" Henry suggested.

"Sure, why don't you go get your toys and I'll go make us something to eat, be careful on the stairs please" Ralph told him before going to the kitchen.

Henry smiled and went up to Ralph's room.

Henry likes staying at Ralph's house more than his own, he wished that he could live here but he has a hamster to take care of and don't know if his parents would allow it.

Ralph went to the kitchen to make grilled sandwiches for the two of them.

"Ralphie?" Henry called.

"Yes Henny?" Ralph answered as he put the sandwiches on the plates.

"Can I watch a movie?" Henry asked.

"Sure, what do you want to watch?" he said as he picked up the plates and walked towards the living room and put them down.

"The Flintstones please" Henry replied.

Ralph smiled softly at his best friend.

"Sure" Ralph said.

"Love you Ralphie(Platonic)" Henry said.

"Love you too(Platonic)" Ralph replied.
