Chandler Riggs/ Carl Grimes Imagines

Bully

I walked into the school building and hoped that he wasn't there today.

He meaning my bully, Chandler Riggs.

I have no idea why he would bully me, except for the fact that I wasn't like anyone else.

My hair was a natural raven black that was, for some reason, really rare in my school. I would most likely be made fun of because it was thought to be dyed when really, it had been that way my whole life. People would call me emo and make cruel jokes every time they saw me.

The only person that I had was my best friend Riley O'Toole.

Riley was the only natural black haired kid in the school and that made us different from all the rest.

We both suffered from the bullying and that was one thing that made us closer. 

The coast seemed clear and I made my way to my locker to find Riley standing there, waiting.

"Hey, Riles," I said with a smile.

"Hey," he replied with a small wave.

I started to turn the lock on the locker when I heard a voice behind me.

"Oh look. Both weirdos in one spot. That should make everything so much better."

"Damn," I muttered.

"What was that?" Chandler asked.

I felt his hand on the back of my head and then all of a sudden, my forehead connected with the cold metal of the locker door.

"Dude, what the fuck?" Riley exclaimed.

My fingers trailed to my head as I tried to steady my blurry vision.

Riley came up to me and took my hand.

"She's bleeding," he exclaimed.

Who was she? I was so confused.

Suddenly, Riley fist flew back and hit Chandler in the mouth.

A gasp swept through the crowd that had formed behind me.

I couldn't focus.

Everything went black.

I awoke in my room with all the light off.

When I tried to sit up, my vision became blurry and I had to rest a second my continuing my ascension.

Eventually, I made my way out of my bed and to the light switch across the room.

My room was exactly the same as I had left it this morning, except for the small folded piece of paper on my dresser.

I picked it up and read.

I don't know when you will be conscious, but when you are, come over to my house. ~Riley

I needed to know what had happened today and why I couldn't remember anything that had happened after I got up this morning, so I grabbed my sweatshirt and walked downstairs and out the front door.

It was pitch black outside, but Riley lived two doors down, so I didn't care.

As soon as I rang the doorbell, Riley came to the door and I gasped.

His face was covered in cuts and bruises and he had a black eye.

"Oh my gosh!" I exclaimed, "What happened?"

He motioned for me to come in.

I walked over the threshold and into his living room.

Riley and I sat down on the couch and he told me all about how when he had hit Chandler, World War lll blew up in his face.

Chandler's friends had attacked him and then a teacher broke up the fight and they were sent to the principal's office.

Riley ended up with detention with Chandler's friends and Chandler got suspended for hitting me.

"He actually came to your house a couple hours ago to tell you he was sorry, but you were out cold. I actually just got home and my mom said that there were a whole bunch of calls came through saying that the kids were sorry for beating me up. Chandler's actually in here with my mom."

I gasped. Why would Chandler be at Riley's face?

I walked into the kitchen to find Chandler sitting at the table, talking with Riley's mom.

"Mika," he said as he jumped up, "I just came over to say sorry to Riley. I came over earlier, but you were-"

"I know," I said coolly.

He flinched, "I'm sorry."

I knew that he had always been such a bully to me and that I shouldn't have forgiven him, but he looked so sad and sorry in that moment.

"I just want you to promise me something," I said.

He nodded.

"I don't want to see you bullying anyone else again."

He took his pointer finger and crossed an X over his heart," I promise, but I have to go home now. I really am sorry."

I nodded and again and he left.

I exchanged a look with Mrs. O'Tool and smiled.

I walked back into the living room to see Riley sitting on the couch and playing a game on his phone.

Before I knew what I was doing, I knocked the phone out of Riley's hands and kissed him.

He tensed at first and then relaxed.

We sat there and kissed for a small while before we separated.

"Thanks for defending my honor," I smiled.
