As they arrived at the school he put his phone and earbuds into his bag. The doors opened and everyone stood up at once, they formed a line and walked to class being picked off one by one going down different hallways to get to class. Eventually Thomas was all alone walking to the end of a hallway, the shadows of the lockers narrowed pointing towards the room. He knocked, looking at the ground, the door slowly opened as he stepped in and sat down without saying a word about anything to anyone.
The boy sitting behind him staring throwing balled-up sticky notes at him. As one hit him in the head he turned to the boy,

He was louder than he meant to sound, a few people began to stare.

As he slowly approached the bus stop, he slid his arms through the straps on his backpack and stood up as the bus jerked him forward. He slowly started walking towards the door and was the first to get off the bus and start walking home.
As he started walking home he heard whispering interfering with his music. As he pulled his earbuds out the whispering came to a dramatic stop. The whispering started again before he unpaused the music as he slid and placed them back into his ears. He quickly tore out the earbuds and continued to walk home without listening to music. But the whispering after a while began to continue...
