"Luke, Ashton is the nicest kid in this damn school!" I snapped and stood in front of the nurse and Ashton. I protected them as Luke was now pointing a semiautomatic handgun at us.

"He still never helped me! He was friends with you! Why couldn't I be friends with you?!" Luke snapped angrily as tears started pouring down his face.

"Because I am a jerk! I am not someone you want to be friends with and look up to!" I snapped back.

It was the truth. I always saw Luke having this awesome huge future and me? Nothing. I was someone who smoked weed and fought all the time. I just had a huge attitude and an ass home life.

"I don't care! I wanted you to actually care about me! I just wanted a friend!" He yelled angrily and I saw his finger move to the trigger but not pull it.

"Police!" someone yelled loudly outside in the hallways. We all turned to look towards the door. While we were looking, Luke took that as the opportunity to grab me and pull my back against his chest and hold the gun to my head.

This is the moment where I hated being short. Even though I wasn't that much shorter. Seconds later the door broke open and the room was instantly swarmed with cops.

"Let him go!" a cop snapped. Luke just pushed the gun harder against my temple.

"No! Nobody understands what it's like!" Luke snapped with tears rushing down his face. Michael felt bad for him. He really did. But that doesn't mean you can just go and shoot up a school.

"I was bullied when I was in school and I didn't have friends. But you don't wanna kill anyone. You don't need to kill people. There are many people out there who understand what you're feeling." A cop said trying to work with Luke.

Luke looked like he was thinking about it for a second. He looked at them like they were right. But he was still too hurt. He knew what was gonna happen when he put the gun down and let me go.

So he put the gun to the side of his head and pulled the trigger shooting us both dead.

"Michael?"

"Uh hello?"

What? Who was calling my name. In an instant second everything changed and I was back in my room sitting in front of Luke.

Holy shit. The school shooting never happened.. there Luke Hemmings was. He was sitting there with his phone in his hand.

"What did you say?" I asked

"Will you be my friend?"

"Yes, I'll be your friend."
