In A Heartbeat (completed)

Chapter 9: The rest of the school day...

I closed my eyes waiting for the pain, but then I heard the sound of the boys fist hitting something else. I opened my eyes to see Buttercup had caught the punch with Cbay behind her getting ready to beat the boy, while Tiffany ran away. "Wait!" Said Buttercup. "What do you think your doing?" The boys stayed silent then Cbay punched him in the gut, causing him to collapse onto the floor clutching the place Cbay had hit. I didn't notice but I had tears streaming down my face.
Buttercup soon hugged me. "I'm so sorry you have to go through this....if only me and Cbay hadn't done the 30 minutes in heaven you wouldn't be in this situation. I'm...so...sorry..." said Buttercup crying a bit. I hugged back knowing there were people who are going to protect me now.
After that we all decided to skip P.e. we went to the roof to processed what had just happened. Cbay and Buttercup apologized so much, and I forgave them. I knew they didn't mean to do this on purpose.
"Hey Sherwin....You know I'm Bisexual...I haven't told anyone at this school because, in my old school everyone hated me...they called me a freak and what not...They bullied me so much I had to transfer to this school.....so I know what your going through, but I hope they don't bully you to the point you have to leave...." said Buttercup pulling up her sleeve, I'm guessing because she cuts or something.
Today was a minimum day so Pe was last period. Once we heard the piercing sound of the bell we grabbed our bags and left.
Buttercup and Cbay refused to leave my side when arriving and leaving to school now, they were scared I might get jumped or something way worse. While walking home they immediately made me feel better with jokes, but on the way we came across Jonathan.
"Hey Sherwin!" Said Jonathan running up to us with Tiffany following close behind. "U-um.....h-hi..." Said Sherwin getting behind Buttercup and Cbay. "Are you okay?" Said Jonathan trying to get a little closer but Tiffany had yanked him back. Buttercup then muttered something but all that could be heard was something about Tiffany.
"Jo-Jo you don't want to talk to him~ He's a no good gay Freak!" Said Tiffany pulling Jonathan closer to him. Buttercup snapped, she ran towards Tiffany and knocked her down. "WHAT DO YOU KNOW YOU STUPID ASS BITCH!" Yelled Buttercup punching her face repeatedly yelling things at her, while the rest of us tried to get Buttercup off of Tiffany.
Once we did Buttercup immediately calmed down. Tiffany then whipped her nose that was bleeding. She looked at Sherwin with blood thirsty eyes, and then soon charged. Before Tiffany could knock down Sherwin Cbay grabbed her arm and threw her into some trashcans that weren't far from us. We soon heard sobs......sobs....sobs....sobs..."What the heck is going on?...." Asked Jonathan staying still not bothering to move an inch.
"Nothing....lets go..." said Cbay walking ahead with the Sherwin and Buttercup close behind. The rest of the walk was dead silent.
Once in front of Sherwin's house, Buttercup and Cbay had left without saying a single word. "Mom I'm.....home..." I said entering my home soon realizing my mother wasn't home for a couple more hours. I felt m eyes burning to the point I collapsed to the floor crying. What did I do wrong....why does everyone hate me...."WHY!" I yelled out loud.
Then I soon heard knocking at the door. I whipped the tears from my face making it look as if I didn't cry at al. I put on a fake smile walking up to the door and slowly opening it, but I soon regretted opening it. It as Tiffany, she soon charged at me crying. She was soon followed by her friends. I screamed, but she covered my mouth with taper and began to hit me all over. But then she pulled outa razor out of her pocket, and began to slice my arms. I tried to scream but all that could be heard were muffled screams.
After about an hours or so she had left me. My vision grew blurry due to so much blood loss, and before I knew it I was asleep.
I then woke up to hear someone banging on the door. My head throbbed with movement I took. I looked around and saw that there was no trace of blood....except on my arms...but it was dry....I got up and headed to the door. But before I opened the door I pulled down my sleeve.
I cautiously opened the door to see Jonathan. "Oh hey Sherwin I just wanted to check on yo- Are you okay!" "W-what?" I said weakly. "Oh....yea...I'm fine..." "You don't look fine, your pale and you have a black eye. Sherwin what's going on!" Said Jonathan entering the house and sitting me down on the couch that was in the next room. Once he sat me down he asked again with a calm voice yet worried one, "Sherwin please tell me what's going on..." I stayed silent until I finally said, "You remember....at the party...when we had to the 30 minutes in heaven thing.....well Tiffany and her gang....found...out that...I'm....Anyways...Tiffany and her gang have been bullying me ever since...Tiffany and her gang came and..." I said lifting up my sleeves. He gasped. Although he was next to me I no longer felt the warmth in my heart.
I felt empty....Then Jonathan hugged me...immediately my heart was filled with warmth...I cried and cried as I hugged back but then I fell asleep in his arms not knowing what happened next.
~Jonathans Pov~
After what seemed like hours Sherwin had fallen asleep in my arms. I didn't want to move because, the slightest movements would wake him up...I stayed still but then my eyelids felt like they got heavier and heavier...then I fell asleep along with Sherwin with him in my arms.
I soon woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I quickly grabbed it and answered the call. ~Time 4:38 pm~
"Jonathan were are you!" Asked my Mother.
"Oh sorry mom I went to a friends house to study and then fell asleep."
"....Alright I'll let you spend the night but send me the address so I can take you your clothes."
"I don't think that's necessary-
"Send me the address in 5 minutes!"
Oh god what do I do!?
