Your POV
This morning I did something I didn't expect to do. I stood up to my Dad. Here's what happened:
"(Y/N), STOP BEING-"
"Stop it, Dad. You always do this."
"Excuse me?"
"You always treat me like I'm nothing."
"Why are you comp-"
"I'm not finished. You're always acting like it's my fault for your actions. That it's my fault that you never treated mom right. That it's my fault our neighborhood doesn't like all the noise you make. That it's my fault that you do illegal pranks. I can easily take you to court, you know that? All I would need is to show them one simple video on my phone, then you're stuck paying an expensive fine, or going to jail. So I suggest you stop treating me the way you are right now, or I'll take you to court and move out of the house, while you'll be doing jail time. I'm going to school, we'll continue this later," I said and walked out the door. I sighed and tried to take in what I just said. "Wow, you're quite the lawyer," I thought to myself. I rethink of what I said and smile. I finally stood up to that dick of a Dad. I then realize Michael, Jeremy, Evan and Zoe are walking with me. "Well someone's happy. Is there a reason?" Michael suddenly asked. "Yep. I turned into a lawyer with my Dad," I said. They just looked at me and soon laughed. "How exactly?" Jeremy asked. "Eh, I said if he kept on treating me weirdly I would turn him in. I actually can with all his quote on quote 'pranks and stunts'," I said. "So basically, your Dad's Jake Paul," Zoe joked and we all laughed. I looked over to everyone and see someone I didn't expect to see: Conner Murphy. "Conner? What do you want? To bully Evan and (Y/N) again?" Zoe asked and rolled her eyes. "Nice to see you too," Conner said. Evan looked at the ground and Zoe tried comfort him. Normally, I'd yell "SHIP SHIP SHIP", but now is not the time. Conner walked over to my side. "...Are you just jumpy or do you want something?" I asked. "Neither. I'm bored," He replied. I looked at him surprised. "Really? Not gonna say anything about any of us?" I said as I raised an eyebrow. "Nope. People have true friends because they want to, not because they get an advantage, and I learned that from you," He said. "Wait, so Jared's not my true friend..?" Evan asked. "Who's Jared?" I asked. "Evan's car insurance friend. Basically, Jared's parents pay for his car insurance for being nice to him. That's not really true friendship," Michael said. Evan frowned again and Zoe tried to cheer him up again. "Well, maybe Jared should just piss off of my friend," Conner said. We all looked surprised at Conner. Evan smiled. if Conner and Evan were gay, I'd be screaming "SHIP", but the not, so sadly I cannot. "Okay, (Y/N) is officially magical in friendship, because Conner knows about friendship," Michael said and everyone laughed. "Well, she did tell me about friendship, so I suppose I should thank her...." Conner said. "Thank me for what?" I asked. "I was planning to...Do something to end my life. But (Y/N) made me realize I shouldn't," Conner said. My eyes got wide to an unimaginable extent. "Conner! Why would you ever do that?!" Zoe yelled. "I thought I was bad so I couldn't live anymore...But (Y/N) was nice...She still excepted me after our arguments," Conner said. "That's not the point! You should've told Mom and Dad, and me too!" Zoe said. We got into school silent until the bell rang. "You know what to do," The teacher said, sounding like she didn't even care anymore. Today Conner and I didn't fight, and we actually finished. We all did a hands in and continued our day.
