They all run outside and I sigh.
"I'll just leave then..." I say and walk outside... I watch the car drive away... I officially have no friends... I walk down the road to Uncle Sam and Dean's house. I knock on the door. Dean answers
"Hey kiddo" he says
"Hey... Is uncle Sam here...?" I ask and he nods
"Sam!" He yells and Sam walks over to me
"Need to talk again?" He says and I nod, Dean walks away and me and Sam walk outside
"I got beat up again..." I say
"Alex, you need to stick up for yourself" he says
"I-I just can't... I'm one of the smallest kids in my grade... There a lot bigger... They do it just because I'm trans... I don't get it... I'm a person just like them..." I say as my eyes water
"Why don't you tell your mom and dad?" He asks
"Because they won't understand..." I say
"Your mom used to get picked on in school. And your dad has gotten in many fights. If you don't want to tell them then fine... But if you need I'm always here..." He says and I nod
"Can I just stay here for a while..." I say and he nods
"Thanks.." I say and we walk inside. He texts my mom and I sit on the couch and play with my fingers when someone opens the door, I look over and see Nick and Jeydon with bloody noses and a fat lip
"What the hell did you guys do?!" I say
"We found the guys that where beating you up. They'll be leaving you alone from now on." Nick says and I nod, I grab a towel and wet it down and give it to them.
"Wipe off the blood" I say and they nod and wipe it off
"Thanks.." I say
"Your our little brother" they say
"Me and Jeydon are twins?!" I say
"But I was born first" Jeydon said and I roll my eyes and we smile, we all sit on the couch and watch tv
