Rich's POV

The next 5 classes were a blur to Rich; he barely paid attention to the teacher and was more concerned with trying not to cry at all the tasteful comments directed towards him. Hell, even one of his teachers murmured something when he came into the class.

And then it got worse. 7th period, gym. When he had the Squip, it'd always tell him to skip gym. He was already pretty well built so the students didn't really question it, assuming he was getting high with some girl around campus.

But in reality, he was locked in a bathroom stall wondering why he couldn't be 'right.' (PSA all of you are beautiful and if you think otherwise about yourself I will break down your door and comfort you.)

He slowly shuffled into the locker room and began changing. He took off his shirt, revealing a binder and a tank top. It didn't take long for someone to see. "Yoooooo." He froze when he heard the voice behind him.

"Rich is a giiiiirl." One yelled, cupping his hands around his mouth for extra volume. A small crowd of about 8 people had joined, the people who didn't were all lgbtqia or an ally, and they all stared at him sympathetically.

A few boys had started wolf whistling as Rich tried his hardest not to breakdown. He threw on a shirt and shoved through two guys, easily knocking them over, one yelled 'tranny.' That's what made Rich turn around.

~Timeskip~

"Richard. Work with us." The nurse sighed, getting impatient with Rich, who folded his hands calmly as blood cascaded from his forehead. "If was thelf defenth." The nurse glared at the indignant boy before sighing and walking out into the hallway.

Not 4 minutes had passed when Rich's phone had buzzed, it was a tweet.

SeeMeRolan: RICH IS TRANS!! He Put Ram in Urgent Care, Heres The Video!

Link Below:

Rich scoffed, urgent care? For a sprained arm and a split lip? I think not. He was somewhat pissed that everyone knew he was trans, but a good number of students were lgbtq friendly so at this he didn't have enough energy to care.

He laid back on the wax paper bed, picking at his cuticles. That's when (Mrs. Maria Reynolds Stepped Into-) the door slammed open, Jake was being held by the wrist as the nurse dragged him into the small, cramped room. He looked up and waved innocently to Rich, as if he didn't have blood dripping down his right hand.

"I. Cannot. BELIEVE YOU TWO." Jake sat next to Rich as the nurse continued her lecture. "You," She gestured  to Rich, "sprained Rams arm, and you." She pointed an accusing finger at Jake. "I don't even want to know what you did."

Jake guiltily wiped the blood off and onto  his jeans. She pressed her fingers to her temples, "just go to Principal Morris's office." The two shuffled out of the room and into the hallway.

Rich pulled him into the boys bathroom as soon as they stepped out of the nurses office. "Dude What the acthual fuck did you do." Jake bit his bottom lip as he held his hands behind his back like a 7 year old.

"Jake, anther me." Jake opened his mouth to speak but quickly closed it. "..I.. dropkicked Alexander and then punched him?" Rich looked at him disappointedly. "Jake. Thath not thomething you jutht.. your not uthually a violent guy, man."

"He was being an asshole. And come on we gotta go anyway."

Earlier, Jakes POV

Jake planted his feet firmly on the field as everyone else filed outside. A freckled boy with curly hair stood next to him, pulling out his phone after hearing it ding.

Jake saw his face lose color as he read the screen. Suddenly someone a whole head shorter than Jake walked up to him and read what was on the phone, laughing dryly.

"Rich is a.. girl?" He said between laughs. The freckled boy looked completely disgusted with Alexander and walked off, his fists clenched.

"Nooo Jacky, I 'wheeze.'" Jake sent him a death glare, which made him laugh harder. "Oh right your her boyfriend?" Jake gritted his teeth. "Rich isn't a girl."

"Oh! My bad. He's a transgender abomi-"

~Present~

"Dillinger, is this true?" Rich sat close to the taller boy as he raised his arms defensively. "It's not my fault! He was being a douche!" Alexander got up from the other side of the room, speeding towards the boy.

"I was not." Rich played with the hem of his shirt as Alexander stood over him, a gleam in his eyes. "Besides it's his fault for being the way he is." Alexander pointed accusingly at Rich, who stared dejectedly at the floor.

(I don't think Alexander would be this much of a dick I just need someone to be a douche  man.)

Jake grabbed Rich's sleeve protectively as the Principal stood up angrily.

"Weeks detention! All of you."

He ushered everyone out of the office.

Alexander tried to look as menacing as possible, which proved hard for someone 5'7. "This. Is not over Dillinger." He staked off towards his locker.

A moment of silence passed before Jake spoke up. "Sbarros?"

Rich laughed half heartedly at his friends actions and nodded his head yes.

Kind of a filler chapter kind of not? I don't know why this one turned out so much longer than my others.
