Lingering Moon Drop ♠ON HOLD ♠

Chapter 3: April

When I was younger, I was constantly bullied, used as a stress ball for others, and I would always come home with a new scratch. Of course though, these scratches didn't leave scars, I mean, some did but...

One day, I tried calling someone over, a friend. This friend, was never really my friend, just a boy who was interested in the games I played. During this time, I was playing Five Night's At Freddy's 2, my favorite of the FNAF games. Over and over, I yelled, "Aaron! Aaron! Come look at this! I finally beat night three!" Over and over, again and again, getting louder and louder.

Eventually he had enough of my yelling, he sick and tired of me constantly disturbing him while he was playing with his real friends. He stomped over to where I was, his face flushed red with anger. The closer he got, the more I got scared, and suddenly I realized I was hiding behind my computer.

"You know what April," He began, "Congrats, you beat night three!" His voice started becoming louder, and louder within my ears, his voice cracking, leaking out the anger towards me. "Do you know how much I care April! Do you know how much I care about you April?" He was drawing closer, and closer, "This is how much I care for you April!" He threw my computer on the floor, the screen bend backwards although it wasn't supposed to, "And this is how much I care for your STUPID games!" He started stomping on the computer, the screen cracking and the monitor and the key board broke apart.

Only moments later did he stop. The computer screen seemed broken to his satisfaction, you could see the wiring through the broken glass of the screen, and some of the key board keys fell out. The memory chip had been completely broken.

Slowly, I crawled up towards where my laptop lay in pieces. I crawled towards some of the broken glass, and tried picking it up, then I bent my computer back into it's usual form, only to let it flop back down. I carried it back up, and put the scattered keys and broken glass back into the devise, and stuffed the broken memory chip back into it's socket so many times. Continuing my actions to fix my computer, I pressed the on button, waiting five seconds for the screen to turn blue and confirm it was alright, and it would work...

But sadly, it didn't. Over and over, waiting and waiting, hearing their laughs ring in my ears. Tears suddenly started pouring out of my eyes as the dialogue constantly played in my head.

"This is how much I care for you April!"
"This is how much I care for your STUPID games!"

Tears continuously fell, my eyes burning and small little whimpers flooding out of my throat. "No," I picked up the fallen out pieces in disbelief, the tiny pieces of class cutting me as they slipped out of my fingers.

At that moment I felt as if my heart was just plunged into pure darkness. Despite all of the crap I've been put though, this broke all of my boundaries. I got up off of the floor and clenched my fists.

"You just had to break my laptop right?" I opened my moon like eyes, the milky white color darkening into a shade of gray. "You broke it to unrepairable levels!" I crept towards them with, swaying side to side as if I was mentally deranged.

"I needed that thank you," I looked at Aaron in the eyes, "Just like you need eyes to see right?"

This scared the boys a little, but looking at my weak figure they started laughing again. "What, are you gonna stab someone's eye out?" "Maybe not, but I may bruise one."

And so one, we started fighting. I honestly don't remember the details but I somehow won and it felt so simple to. All I know is that afterwards I got major restraining orders and a totally bad reputation. But of course, it never warded off the bullies. One bully lead to another, then another. And eventually I was just back to how I started, I just didn't have Aaron around to talk to...

But knowing that jerk, he also said the worst things about me out of the entire school, and from that day forward people never, EVER touched my computer within my range of sight our sound.

Eventually, I learned to burry my feelings and covered it up with kind and ignorant ones, but of course, that never stopped anyone, for I am still alone to this day, playing computer games within the cafeteria.
