We all decided to stay at my house. When we got there my parents ask alot of questions about what happened to me and zero. We just said that I fell and landed on my face and that zero and ethan where playing with the football and zero got mad and started to hit things and busted his noise.

Last part they didn't believe but they let it go.

Right now we where in my bedroom. I had ice on my cheek, I cleaned off my lip, it's still bleeding but not bad.

Carla was wrapping up zeros knuckles while Jacy cleaned his face since he had blood all over him. Ethan and Nathan was getting clothes that would fit him. Since zero and Nathan where the same size he'd have to wear his clothes.

Zero looked a bit out of it. He looked scared? Angry? Sad?

He had his iPod in his hand, stareing at it as if it was gonna grow legs and move.

"Zero?" I say

Nothing

"Zero"

Still nothing.

I sighed and stood up from my bed. I walked over to him and sat beside him. Carla got done wrapping his knuckles and Jacy finish cleaning his face.

I look at zero, his eyes watering and his face showed alot of emotions.

"Zero?"

Everyone looks at him, wondering what's wrong with him, Nathan put his spare clothes beside him since zeros clothes got dirty with blood because he got his hoodie ripped off of him.

I touch zeros shoulder but he does nothing. We all look at him wanting him to do something but it's like he's froze.

I glace at zero. I see him glup and saw a tear going down his cheek.

I rub his back to confort him.

"You okay bud?" Ethan ask

Zero sat there. Tears going down his face that held alot of emotions.

Zero got up and picked up the clothes Ethan and Nate got him and went to the bathroom, closing the door.

We all looked at eachother. Concerned faces.

Who hurt him?

I change out of clothes and into the ones Nathan and Ethan got me.

I look at myself in the mirror. I had a bruise forming on my cheek. I looked down at my wrapped knuckles. They hurt alot.

I get a towel wet and clean my face more, getting the tears off and some dirt.

I put the towel in the hamper and went back to look at myself. I look better. I feel better.

But there was something that was making me have sorts of emotions.

Like how my mind is blaming me for everything that happened.

I could of protected oakley.

I could of stopped Tobias from hitting her.

I could of helped her up.

All I heard was voices. Faces. Replaying in my head while I was punching Tobias.

I hurt someone, to protect another person, to protect a girl from getting hurt by a guy. But why do I feel like my father? I feel like I done a terrible thing? Why?

Why do I feel like the villan?

Zero came out of the bathroom and looked at us. He look at me and smiled. I smiled back and got up.

"So, since it's been a horrible day and it's only seven why don't we watch a movie?" I ask

Everyone agreed and they argued of what to watch.

Zero smiled and shook his head. I'm glad he's happy now. But his smile? something about his smile made me worry. Like something in me was telling me he's sad, he's confused, angry, afraid?

(Movie)

We all layed in bed. The boys where layed on the couch, futon or the spare bed that we had on the floor.

Ethan, Jacy, Avery, and Carla fell asleep. They rest of us where half way there.

We had school tomorrow and we all already had our showers. We had to rewrap zeros knuckles to.

(1 hour later)

By the end of the movie everyone was asleep. I sat up and put the popcorn bowl on my table. I layed back on the bed and closed my eyes letting sleep take over but there was one thing that was on my mind.

Zero.
