Michael was currently running. He didn't want to run or do any kind of physical exercise, but he'd rather run than get hurt.

Who was he running from exactly? Luke.

The black-haired boy heard a laugh from behind him, followed by a taunting voice. "Go on run, you fucking fag. Not like you'll get very far with your fat ass anyway." He stopped running. Michael knew that continuing to struggle was just going to amuse Luke and make his beating worse.

By this time, Luke had caught up to the smaller, already bruised boy. The blonde grabbed him by the shoulders and shoved Michael against the lockers and whispered. "To the back."

Michael knew better than to scream, talk, or fight back. So, he took the punches, kicks that were thrown his way, lifelessly. He didn't talk much anymore. He didn't even talk much before this all started. 

People started making fun of everything Michael did after what Luke did. When he tried to speak people made fun of him, when he did anything at all, people laughed at him. The boy eventually found it best to not say or do anything at all.

If Michael got an A on a test, he was teased for being a nerd. When he got an F, he was called a fucking failure. If he spoke, his voice was made fun of and if he didn't speak, he was called a mute freak. Anything he did at all, people could find a way to bully him over it. So, he tried to stay invisible.

They made it to the brick wall and Luke immediately pinned him to the wall. Michael flinched and looked up seeing Calum. If Michael wasn't scared before, he definitely was now. Calum was bigger and much more muscular than Luke. No one messed with him, not even the teachers.

"Calum! Come on over!" Luke waved the boy who was still smoking and watching the two in interest. The Maori dropped the cigarette and stepped on it, he started walking toward the shaking boy and Luke, who was as calm as ever. "Faster!"

"No." Calum walked over slowly. "Why would I waste my energy on that piece of shit?"

Luke let go of the still shaking boy, allowing Calum to pin him back to the brick wall with even more force than Luke had. The Maori's hand wrapped around Michael's wrists tightly, leaving marks, causing Michael to wince.

"Are you ready?" Luke smirked, knowing Michael was not going to respond. He didn't even wait for a reply before he was pulling his fist back and punching Michael in the stomach. "Actually... I don't care."
