The Other Side Part 2

58.

As the day went on me and Vida had a few classes together so we would always walk together. We were heading to our last class when a larger kid ran into me nearly knocking me down.

"Watch it curly headed freak!" Jacob said, he has always picked on me for years because I was a very small and quiet kid, making me a perfect target for him. He always had his two friends with him, Joe and Randy.

"Why don't you watch where you're going you big giant!" Vida screamed back standing on her toes to reach his face.

"Just forget it Vida, we got to get to class." I grabbed her trying to pull her away.

"What's wrong Peter Pan? You're going to let a girl fight for you!"

"He's my cousin, that's what family do you moron!" Vida screamed making everyone in the hall stop what they were doing.

"Vida shut up!" I said starting to push her down the hall faster and harder but she was a strong little girl that will fight anyone. I could hear Jacob and his two friends follow behind us.

"I'm not done with you yet midget!" Jacob grabbed my book bag pulling me back quickly making me fall. He then got on me and began punching me. All I could do was cover my face as best as I could bringing my legs up to my chest.

"Get off of him!" Vida punched his face but was quickly pulled back by Joe.

While Jacob was holding his face and looking towards Vida I quickly kicked his chest knocking him back. I got up seeing everyone in the hall now had their phones out screaming and laughing. Randy ran towards me ready to hit me but I suddenly dodge it causing him to punch the lockers.

"Ah! I think I broke my hand!" He held his hand starting to cry and I was still in shock how my body automatically moved from his hit. I then was tackled from behind from Jacob.

"Someone do something! Put your stupid phones down!" Vida screamed still struggling to get free.

Jacob grabbed my hands and pinned them under his knees and began punching me. With every hit the kids would scream "Ohhh" I could feel my heart racing as my breathing picked up.

Vida stepped on Joe's foot causing him to let go and Vida jumped on Jacob wrapping her small arms around his neck pulling him off. I instantly turned over coughing trying to slow my breathing. I desperately reached in my pocket grabbing my inhaler putting it to my lips taking in deep breaths. I heard yelling and whistles blowing knowing it was the teachers, finally!

"Hey! Break it up! Vida Hernandez let go of him before you making him pass out!" Principal Newman screaming as him and another teacher pulled her off.

"Him and his stupid friends were trying to jump Peter!"

"I don't care in my office now! The rest of you get to class!"

Bruno's P.O.V
I sat in the bar with the guys as we talked about all these random things. It was great how close we still are and how all our kids get to grow together to carry on our legacy. We were a few drinks in a was bringing up funny memories.

"Hey you guys remember that time we were on the tour bus and Kam locked us all in the main room after he released that monster fart!" I said trying to hold in my laugh.

"Yes! What the hell did you eat boy?" Dwayne said laughing while tears fell down his eyes.

"I had that bean burrito from that food truck in New York!"

"Damn that food trunk messed us all up! And we only had two bathrooms."

"And we had to make the bus stop at every exit to a gas station because we were just all pouring hot lava out our ass!" Jimmy said causing us to laugh more.
