Dan was a shy boy who spent most of his time hiding out in the library from the gang of bullies his dad made mad and bully him. His mother had died years ago and his dad blamed dan even though it was cancer. He started abusing dan for that and also the fact that dan was gay and wore pastel and flower crowns. His father told the gang that he was gay and paid them to bully him. He ran into the library chased by the gang. He sat and started reading The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. Then out of the corner of his eye he saw the gang enter the library and he ran. He ran up to the desk to see a boy in all black a few years older than him.
Hi sir how can I help you?
Its Dan can I hide behind your desk l those boys are after me...
Ok dan quick I'm phil.
He ran and hid crouching next to phils legs. Then he heard stomping and looked up. There was the leader... Alfie.
Have you seen this kid?
He showed a picture of me on his phone to phil.
N-no. Why?
His dad give us money for us to do something with him so we need him.
What do you do with him?
Beat him up...
Why do you need the money? Why does his dad pay you to beat up his own son?
Phil was protecting me! But wait... my dad pays them?
I need it for my girlfriend Zoe's cancer treatment fund...
Oh my god! I know you need money but this isn't the right way to get it.
I stood up and stared straight at Alfie.
My d-dad pays you?
Yeah I'm sorry I just need the money for zoe.
Alfie... you could have told me... my dad is high end so used to give me loads of money before the abuse.
I wrote him a check for the payment and gave it to him.
Please just don't beat me up or anyone up anymore...
Ok! Thank you so much.
Him and his gang left and I turned to phil and thanked him kissing his cheek and turning to leave.
He grabbed my wrist to turn me around and I winced in pain but he didn't notice.
Can I have your number?
Sure...
I have it to him and left smiling.
-two months later-
Me and phil are really good friends now and Alfie doesn't hurt me anymore and Zoe is almost cancer free!
Today phil and I are sat at the park it the weather is hot so I take my pastel pink jumper off leaving me in my galaxy skirt and white short sleeved top. I turn and face phil and he has tears in his eyes.
Hey hey hey lion what's wrong?
His eyes didn't meet mine... they met my wrist.
Phil-l I-I-I...
Bear why do you have scars?
It was a long time ago lion.
He just nodded and kissed each scar and between kisses he said...
Don't.. do... it... again...also... will... you... go... out... with... me...?
Yes!
