Rich's POV:
Once I arrived home, I threw myself onto my bed and thought about todays events. I felt so stupid. Why couldn't I just talk to him, or them for that matter. All because I got intimidated by Jeremy fucking Heere. The guy I've been mocking since we were 15. The tall, awkward guy who can't even stand straight. The guy who used to be my friend..
Yeah it was a time I was trying to forget. I got sick of being the loser, the geek or the.. Whatever..
So instead I changed everything about myself, my hair, my style, my attitude, I got rid of the braces and I got contacts, I changed my name and I got rid of my lisp.
After summer break I was a completely different person. Nobody recognised me and because of my new and changed attitude, I quickly became popular and instead of being bullied, I became friends with Jake. And to keep up my reputation it also meant 8 had to be an ass towards people who were labelled losers. I felt like an absolute trashcan for treating people the way I did but after a while it just became my nature and I thought nothing of it.
Leaving Michael- and Jeremy, was one of the hardest things I had to do but I got over it after a while. I had no idea why I suddenly cared for the boy in the glasses that I used to bully and it scared me. I lost everything I worked for because of him and it made me want to punch him for it, but at the same time I wanted to protect him from all the demons in that school.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, I fr my phone vibrate in my pocket. I checked and saw that I had a text from an unknown number.
Hey
That was weird?
Hi, sorry who is this?
Michael Mell
That made my heart pump. Michael texted me? Why would he do that? All of a sudden my heart started beating very fast and I didn't know what to do.
Calm yourself! Freaking out is for girls, are you a girl Rich?
I shook my head and collected my nerves and texted him back.
Oh hey Michael! What's up?
Wait how did you get my number?
I didn't remember giving it to him.
I just wanted to check up on you and see how you were doing. Plus Christine gave me it, she told me you were bummed out about today and I feel kinda bad for Jeremy's behaviour.
Of course she did.. I'm fine don't worry about me, how are you doing yourself?
I'm pretty alright. Anyway I just wanted to check, I have to go but I'll see you tomorrow at school I guess.
Yeah you will, have fun.
Yeah you too, bye Rich
Bye!
And with that I put my phone down. What the fuck had just happened?
