I thought the school was never going to end. The teachers talking for hours about stuff I already learned, it annoyed me by far. As I walked out of class I saw the cute small red-headed nerd, he ducked his head and buried his face within his math books as for being walked over to his robotics club. I would go to the swim practice, but the coach had to cancel for some reason.

As he approached me I set my foot out a bit and tripped him. He tried to stop himself from falling but only ended up tripping on his shoelace and falling. Everyone laughed of course as he gathered his belongings that had been scattered around him. As he gathered he looked back at with tears forming in his eyes, then placed his focus back on gathering. Once all of his things were collected he got up, wiped his face, fixed his red-rimmed glasses, made sure his hat was on then walked away from where he had fallen.

I watched the red head take his leave. When I tried to mine I couldn't I was frozen, I stood there my eyes stayed on him while he disappeared from my sight. I felt an unsettling feeling come from my chest. I shook my head and forced myself to turn around and continue my distant out of the school.

As I walked out I couldn't shake the feeling. Images of him crying, the painful looks he gives, the way he trembles in my presence. At first, I felt nothing but now-now it feels like my hearts once had slowed down, my head has begun to feel light. These lead me to believe that I felt guilty, of everything that I have done to him. But why, why should I feel guilty? It's not my fault his weak and doesn't know how to defend him self...then again I was in his position. I was once weak and scared, knowing that no matter what there are somethings I just can't change.

I unlocked my front door and didn't even bother turning on the lights or closing the door all the way. Dropping my bag by the stairs, I then made me upstairs. I'll work the homework later. Once I got close to my door I heard someone within. Kicking the door open I saw Eddy sitting with a hand over his chest breathing heavily on my bed with a bag full of beer. "What the hell sock head, you almost gave me a heart attack," Eddy exclaimed adjusting himself trying to comfortable once more. Walking in, I closed my door and rolled my eyes annoyed at his comment, "Me? No, you see I can do whatever I wish to do, due to the fact that this is my home. So really, the main question here is what the hell are you doing in my house?"

Eddy looked at me then looked down, he sniffled a bit then got up from my bed. "My, brother he, uh kinda...," As he talked I inspected his clothing. They were rigged but that was normal, but the thing was is that tiny droplets of what looks to be blood covered his clothing. "Got drunk and beat me up, I needed a break and you see I thought why not have a drink with you. Ed' s still at football practice." He mumbled the last part. I thought about a bit, drink until my brain cells a gone or kick Eddy out for breaking an entering. As I thought the red head piped into my head, I sighed "Sure I need a distraction anyway."

I could have sworn that when I said the shorter male smiled for a bit replaced it with his famous cheesy smirk. As he dug into the bag I took off my shoes a placed them carefully in my closet then placed my hat onto the desk. I sat next to him as he handed me a beer. Taking it I could tell it was the cheap kind.

It wasn't long until my whole room was covered with empty beer bottles. Eddy was talking about something but came out as mumbles. Next thing you know everything turns black.
