Chapter- 9

—

It's been a week since Lafayette's incident. Laf said not to talk about it and just avoid it. Though It pained me too, but I did. The only thing he told us was that he said one little gay comment and Rey Rey lost it I guess. But now I know whose the homophobic idiot in this school. At least it's not literally the whole school. I'd really recommend if we keep a close eye on that bastard too.

It was Friday. I felt sick and didn't wanna go to school. It wasn't some random excuse to keep me from going. I actually felt sick. All the stuff that's been going on. It's like the school is bipolar too. Every week it's either happy, sad, both, or nothing.

I laid in my bed, kip laying his head on my stomach. My breath purposely getting higher and lower.  I wanted to text someone or at least play on my phone but my headache would only get worse because of the lighting on the phone.

I wanted to cry, I don't know why. I just did. I wanted to let every single tear I've been scared to let out for the past two weeks of my days at school, out. I can't really put my finger on why I wanted to cry. But I didn't care. I didn't care for the hiding or pain anymore. I didn't care for just one simple thing.

So I cried. I let it out until my face was red and my pillow was painted with wet tears.

Well that wasn't very smart either, cause my head starting banging like crazy. Like needles were piercing my brain and scalp.

I jumped at the sudden There was a knock at my door. I suddenly wiped my face and groaned at the bigger head ache that was beginning to appear.

Instead of my dad coming in to lecture me about having to take my meds, it was Peggy. She smiled brightly and before I could respond, Alexander walked in as well. Peggy put her hand on my forehead and yelped. More like squeal..

"Oh my gosh John! Your burning!" She groaned and hugged me lightly.

"Peggy as much as it pains me to say this but, if you keep getting in my bubble you might end up getting sick, so keep it personal." I laughed weakly and sniffed.

Alexander nervously walked in getting on his knees beside Peggy. He pressed his lips together in a thin layer.

"John, were you crying?" She asked. I didn't say anything. I couldn't. I didn't want Alexander to think of me as weak and a baby. I wanted to be the nerd who turned into a cool kid. Not some cry baby who has a soft heart. But again, I'm to pure to lie.

"Johnny?" Alexander finally said. I couldn't stand his sweet and sour words. Dripping out like a faucet of water from a sink.

"Yes.." I croaked. Turning around to face the wall. Kip licked my face and I started petting him softly. Giggling and wiping the wet tears that remained.

"Aw-" peggy started to say.

"Don't even think about Pegs" I mumbled.

"If you need anything John, Alex and I will be downstairs. Your dad seems nice so we'll give it a go..ok?" I nodded at that. I wanted to argue with them because my dad is a loud mouth and who knows what he'll say. But I didn't. I needed rest and my headache would get bigger if I didn't.

But I do like Alexander. I'd be lying if I said I didn't.
