Letters

--Chris POV--
Kibo's locker is always filled with letters this is getting ridiculous, everyday after school I'd leave with bags full of them and somehow, everyday when I come back in its completely full! It's all my fault she's getting harassed so badly I need to figure out how to stop it. Kibo is going to the music room?  I chase after her cause everyone is in class. "Kibo! "I whisper loudly.

She turns around and looks me in the eyes,"what? If it's about the letters don't bother, it's fine it doesn't matter anymore."

What she said shook me with anger, "what do you mean it doesn't matter?! You're just gonna let them treat you like that?! They,"

"They what?! Why wouldn't I? Everyone else is fine with them treating me like garbage. Why should I care? Unlike everyone else I don't try to be molded into this society of kids that think they are all better than each other. I don't let what they say affect me, you on the other hand; you try to please everyone boy, girl, child, and  elder you try to please them all. You try to fit into this tiny mold. You don't see that everyone in this fucking building are all the same because this is what you were raised to see as normal. I'm not you, to me you all are just a bunch of clones, that can be effected with just a few little words. Words don't mean anything until you give them meaning, you don't stand up for yourself why do you expect me to?" She said calmly looking at me as if she was looking into my soul. She cut me off and I was awed, she had me shocked her words; she meant every word she said all of that without a single doubt, her voice never shock it didn't change pitches or anything all I could do was stare. I watched her walking away she was half way to the door and she turns around and looks straight at me my heart jumped. "Just give up, a little 'prince' like you can't save me, we aren't in a fairy tail. I'm not hoping for a change, so I guess I can't stop you. But I know it won't change." She started walking off her voice shock, I sounded like she was upset, she didn't believe in her words then! Without knowing my legs were running towards her and the next thing I know is that I'm hugging her! Why did I do that! Why am I so bothered with what she said! "What are you doing?!" She said breathing into my chest. I let go and step back.

"Sorry, it sounded like you were upset and the next thing I know is I hugged you." I know my cheeks are red right now and I don't know why!

"Do you have fever? Your face is so red! " she says reaching her hand out standing on her tip toes to feel my forehead. "You're burning! " she grabs my hand and runs me to the nurse's office and was yelling for the nurse but she wasn't there. "Fuck! Go sit on the bed" I didn't hear hear I was staring at her freaking out and felt relieved! I started to laugh! "Why are you laughing your fever is getting that hot? I said lay down!" she pushed me into the bed and put an ice pack on my head.

"I'm fine, I'm fine. I was just blushing cause I was flustered (cause you were kinda cute all upset) I'm okay really!" I said laughing.

"So you were messing with me now dick head." Her face dropped and her eyes turned into a dark purple. She put her face over mine and leaned in slowly and pins my hands down, I closed my eyes and my face gets even redder.

---end of Chris's POV--
I shot back up quietly and pushed him off the bed," don't fuck with me." And walked back to the music room. I grab a chair, put in my ear buds and start humming to 'Terrible Things' by  'Mayday Parade' one of my favorite bands. I'm now lost in my own little world and start singing along to it. Oz saw and over heard me singing and stood outside of the room so she didn't startle me. Oz knows I don't like when people listen to me sing. But I don't mind if it's her I am in her class room after all. I sang my song and then looked at the time it was 10 minutes until class ends and so I gather my things.

As I walked out of the music room I decide to go look at my locker and with my luck a group of girls were standing there sticking there little letters into my locker. I start to chuckle and they turn around shocked. "What? You scared your little prince is gonna be taken by little old me? The girl apparently no one likes?" I say laying my hand on the lockers pressing one of them on it. "If I'm not liked then why do you feel threatened? "I say slipping my index finger under her chin and my thumb on her cheek making her look deep into my eyes. "What? Cats got your tongue??" One of the girls grab my arms and I swing my arm back and glare at her. "Don't touch me. I won't hold back I don't care about any of you so once I start I won't stop until it's over." I said in a steady yet deeper tone. They look at me, huff and walk away.

I just walk away laughing to myself. "What am I doing why do I care that they are next to my locker, but oh my god they looked like they were gonna shit themselves. Well time for lunch." I walk into the cafeteria and all the girls are gathered  around Chris I ignore them and go get my food and sit down far away from them.

Suddenly I hear "HEY I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY!!! " Chris is on a table and next to him a few bags of letters. He pulls out a letter and reads "Go die already no one wants you here," puts his hand out for another one "just disappear you ugly beast!" And it goes on for a while longer. And then he stop and for the first time ever his eyes seemed .... dark and hollowed. He spoke in a deeper tone then normal "from here on out if anyone puts another letter like this in Kibo's locker consider yourself my enemy. No one I mean no one deserves to be treated this way. She has not done one thing to cause this kind of harassment. And if you think I won't be able to find out who you are you are wrong... very wrong" the room became quiet and you can see Chris glaring at the girls. Then you see him walking over to me, I swallow my food and look at him, "I'm sorry that they did this to you.... but you have a friend now if you want me or not I'm your friend now. " he says softly and then with a huge smile on his face says "so can I have your number now I get lonely at night!".

My face dropped. "Are you serious?...... -_ -" you're kidding right??? You sounded so cool for 2 seconds I almost believed you. " I sighed and took out my phone. "What's your number I'll text you later."

"You're serious?!?!" He responds excitedly.

"Before I change my mind...." he quickly writes it down and give it to me type it in and rip up the paper and continue to eat.

"When are you gonna text me???"

"When ever I please?" I respond and finish my food and walk out of the cafeteria blushing slightly and whisper to myself "a friend, huh?"
