Sencored

Chapter Eight (8)

Sencers p.o.v

I spotted Max at his locker this morning, he didnt seem so jumpy, and I havent talked to him in a while, so I decided to trying and bump up a conversation... Maybe. "Hey..." I said quietly, gently tapping his shoulder. He jumped slightly before turning around.

"Hi!" he smiled, pulling me into a hug, I stiffened before hugging him back, "How are you?" he pulled back, "At home..." He said quietly. I just shrugged, not what happened at him. But what happened at Noahs. I smiled before looking at his face closely, for the first time this morning.

"W...What h... Huh.. Happened?" I stuttered shocked, reaching out a hand to his face, he flinched back and I quickly pulled away.

"Um... Nothing," He said quickly. I nodded, stepping so I could still see him. I hope it wasnt Kameron that did this, so I had to ask.

"Max... Its only fair, I told you... You tell me, we're friends." I held out his small pinky, and he looked at it before smiling and licking mine with his.

"Um... Adrian, he... Uh..." He pointed at his lip not able to finish the sentence.

I sucked in a big breath of hair. He what? I grew angry. "What?" I shrieked causing him to twitched. "He? Your? How? Max you have to tell!" I rushed out, I wasnt just going to let him not tell. Nobody should be getting hit! I dont want him to end up like me either. Getting beaten constantly.

"I did... I told him my biggest secret." Tears slid from his luckily blue-green eyes, "And Im sorry I didnt tell you! Im such a terrible friend. Im sorry!" He cried, throwing himself at me.

"Uh... No! No! No!" I padded his back, moving more towards his back so we could more and go talk in the library. I voice my opinion.. "Lets go to the library, we'll talk about it... And... You can tell me... If you want!" I said, but quickly rushing out the last part, and he nodded, causing me to smile before helping me with his stuff, I picked the things off the floor piling the books in my arms as he shut his locker, he took half the books from my arms and I helped guide him to the library to the spot we first sat at when we met. He started biting his cut lip and my eyes widened, "What are you doing?" Is he crazy?

He smiled at me, before talking "Dont leave me if I tell you." He said, looking me directly in the eyes with a serious, heart broken, but loved stare. "I..." He licked my lips, his eye twitching, "You know... How Adrian lost his dog?" He peaked up at me under his beautiful gray bangs, I nodded calmly. "Im... Im Max--the dog" And he looked up at me completely.

My mouth hung open, but I shut it quickly after I saw him move back. He thought I would hurt him? Well no, because one; I was shocked, but I guess that explains his hair. I wanted to reach out and touch it. But I restrained myself. It was just so cool! Yet unbelievable. "Oh... Well..." I mumbled, I was speechless, "Uh... How?" I asked, watching him peak up at him, and I moved closer to him, I wanted to hug him. But I just couldnt bring myself to it. That was so cool! He used to have a tail.

"Your not mad or scared of me?" He pouted, then continued. "You dont think Im a freak? A creep? A forty year old with ugly Gray hair?"

My brows went together and I sat in disbelief, "He said all that to you?" I sat on my knees in front of his face, and thats when the elastic band that was holding him together broke. Sobs rocked his body and I felt as if our roles were reversed. Im the strong one he needs to comfort him and make him feel better. He nodded, and a wave of anger ran through me, I wrapped my arms around him, burring my face in his hair. "Your none of those things Max." I huffed out, "I swear on my life, Noahs and all the other kids in our school!" I shoved my head into his chest getting Max out of the little ball he wrapped himself in. "I love you Max! And if I wasnt so small Id kid Adrian just as hard as he hit you! And Im sorry I cant do that!" I said quickly, I couldnt help but smile as he let out a small chuckle.
