Mitch POV

"Have you lost your ever loving mind! Do you listen to anything people tell you? Or does it go in one ear and out the other!" I sighed and rolled my eyes listening to Jerome lecture me. This was ridiculous he's been at this now for 45 minutes.

"Jerome calm down."

"No Mitch don't tell me to calm down! Never tell a Bacca to calm down! There murderers!"

"It was an accident!"

"How do you accidentally kill a man!" I was getting extremely frustrated and my hands were beginning to shake so badly I could barely type. Yelling makes me nervous.

"Shut up! You stupid furry beast! leave me the hell alone!" I Immediately slapped a hand over my mouth regretting what I had said. A hurt reaction crossed his face and he turned away.

"Jerome I...." I stood up from my desk and walked over to him "I didn't mean it I swear..."

"No Mitch you did mean it, everyone does. I'm a furry monster I know that. I don't need some one else telling me that." I reached out and touched his shoulder gently. He flinched away.

"I'm sorry Jerome, I didn't mean it. I was just really mad and I flipped out. I'm so sorry." I whispered "your not a monster. I may not have known you for very long but I can already tell your not a monster" he sniffled and wiped his eyes.

"You don't understand Mitch. No one ever understands." He stalked off an laid down on his bunk, "Find another room by tomorrow Mitch I don't want you here." Hearing that just broke me.

I closed my eyes. No one ever wanted me no matter where I went.

"No one ever wants me around" I whispered but knew he could hear me, "An annoying teenager that everyone hates, but i thought this trip would be different. I wanted us to be friends." i sighed and turned away, "I'm sorry Jerome"

As I went to crawl into my bed I felt two strong furry arms come around my torso. Jerome Burried his face into the back of my neck.

"It's alright Mitch. I forgive you." He whispered his voice cracking a bit. I turned in his arms and hugged him tightly.

"Thank you" I whispered resting against him. We stayed like this for a few minutes before I looked up at him.

"We still friends?" He asked when I looked up. I smiled and nodded my head.

"Best friends" I pulled away, "but I'm still going to hang out with Matt and Preston." He frowned but nodded.

"I guess I can't stop you. But be careful"

"No problem biggums." He grinned.
