Fallouts'n'Friendships

Day 2

The weather was gloomy and everyone around was too loud for Simons  liking. "Can everyone just shut up and give it a rest!" Simon shouted across the room in anger. He was the only one awake at the time as it was 7:00 am. Surprisingly, nobody else woke up. Simon took charge and started to wake everyone up.

Walking round, he smiled at everyone wondering, who to wake first? He panned round the room and stopped at JJ. "Perfect" he mumbled as he climbed onto the frame. "Wake up!" He slapped JJ sending him to shoot up. "Jesus! What time is it?" JJ asked as he rubbed his cheek. "7:04 in the morning" Simon replied as he jumped down from the bed. JJ scoffed and put his head back on the pillow. He fell back asleep. Simon frowned but he didn't wake him up again.

Next up, Harry. Simon jumped on top of him and shook him back and forth "wake up!" Simon repeatedly screamed in his face. Harry opened his eyes to see Simon in his face "shit!" He kicked Simon off of him and threw him to the floor. "Oh it's just you" Harry sighed "yep" Simon squealed.

He heard someone yawning. Simon rolled over because he had no strength to get up. Josh sat up on his bed and rubbed his eyes. Josh noticed Simon on the floor and rushed towards him. "Simon!" He panicked. "What happened?" He was uneasy, his breathing grew quicker by the second and his eyes darted round the room. "I'm fine Josh, Harry kicked me, that's all" Simon slowly started to regain senses and sat up on the floor.

Josh was still worried. "Josh, Josh, breathe in," Simon inhaled and waited for Josh to copy. Josh copied. "breathe out," Simon exhaled and held Josh by the shoulders. "It's fine, you don't need to worry about me ok?" Simon reassures Josh. He didn't calm down though. Josh was curled up by the door trying to settle down. "Josh, hold my hand," Josh looked at Simons hand and grabbed it. "Squeeze my hand" Simon ordered. Josh squeezed his hand. Harry jumped from his bed. "It's ok Josh" Harry assured Josh as he saw the panic in his eyes. Harry woke up everyone else. JJ jumped in a hurry. "Josh!" JJ alerted Josh. "Shut up you dickhead!" Simon semi-whispered. Josh looked at Simon. He slowly started to calm down. "That's it" Simon smiled. "You're ok, you don't have to worry about me all the time" Simon lifted him to his feet. Josh hugged Simon. "I don't know how you cope with me sometimes" josh laughed as he pulled away from Simon. "I don't know how I do it either" Simon replied giving Josh a slight smile. "He's ok!" JJ shouted as he hugged Josh. "Yeah, I am ok" Josh hugged him back.

"Should we get ready now?, I mean we need to be down for breakfast by 9" Vik suggested. "Yeah, sounds like a plan" Simon said as JJ pulled away from Josh.

They eventually all got dressed, excited they ran down the stairs and into the canteen. "It's 8:46" Tobi said as they all sat down together at a table. "Oh look! It's the new gay group of the school" a guy snickered as he walked past. "Fuck off" JJ shouted to him. "Well there isn't anything wrong with that" he added as he sat down with his friends. "What if some of us are gay? What if you're discriminating some of us? You can't say shit like that, for what? To show off! Wow, dickhead!" Tobi shouted at him pretty much lecturing him. He got defensive "and are you gay? Tobi? Are any of you gay?" He questioned as Tobi scrunched his face. "You know what!" Tobi got up and walked to his table. "Tobi!" Vik shouted. "Maybe I am gay, for one of these guys, maybe I'm not, but I'll tell you here, you are the dickhead, that helped me come out. I am gay" Tobi shouted at the guy and turned back, sitting with the others. "Are you?" He asked. "Well I've just fucking told you, common sense will answer that for you" Tobi rolled his eyes at him and turned to the guys. "Holy shit Tobi!" JJ was impressed by Tobi. "You're going to get rinsed for that you know" Simon told him. "I know, but as long as you guys except me for it, then it's all ok" Tobi smiled.

After breakfast, it was time for their first activity. They all chose to go on a climbing set. "Right, for this task, you guys have to stick together, you'll have to all get a barrel across this course along with yourselves. Only once you've had the barrel can you help" the instructor announced. The order we decided was, JJ, then Harry, then Simon, then Josh, then Tobi, then Vik, then Ethan. "Off you go"

JJ grabbed the barrel. His tactic was to climb the set and throw the barrel before he gets on. He surprisingly succeeded.

Harry then grabbed the barrel, he decided to pass it to JJ and then grab it when he was halfway. The barrel almost fell, but he did it none the less.

Simon grabbed the barrel from Harry at the end. He got through a quarter of it, holding the barrel, but passed it to Harry and Harry passed it to JJ. Then JJ put it onto the platform.

Josh then took the barrel. It was steep the next activity. But josh accomplished it by throwing it to Simon and climbing up the activity,  Simon helping him up by pulling him.

Josh gave it to Tobi. Tobi got through it all while holding the barrel. He gave it to Josh on the last bit as he pulled himself onto the next platform, and helped up Vik.

Vik had the barrel. He passed it to Tobi, Tobi passed it up to JJ. Vik took the barrel last minute, he placed it beside him as he helped Ethan.

Ethan grabbed the barrel. He went through half of it and nearly slipped. He passed it to Vik as a reaction and they passed it up.

They finally finished it. They were allowed to go onto a rope swing. They all wanted to try it. Vik went first. Vik swung across and let go, gripping the net. He slid his way down and onto the ground.

Josh was next. He swung across and landed on the top. He climbed his way down and Vik helped him out the net.

JJ was excited, he swung across and landed far down, he climbed up but scratched himself on the way down. Josh helped him out of the net at the bottom.

Ethan, he swung onto the net and he slid down the same way as Vik, except he got a bruise as he hit the net.

Simon swung across and landed near the top, he launched himself up and slid down the net. JJ carried him out and placed him down. He stood up and wiped off some of the dirt.

Tobi was next and he swung across and gripped the top before he slid down and climbed back up. He threw himself down and jumped out the other end.

Harry was next, he was excited because he loved this kind of stuff. Excited, he swung too far and hit his chin on the top of the net. He laughed as he climbed back up. He then lost his balance at the top and rolled down. "SHIT!" He shouted as he hit the net below. JJ frantically picked him up. He waited for him to wake up until he put him down. "Jesus Harry" JJ said as he helped him to his feet. "Did I do good" everyone laughed as he threw his fists in the air. Everyone laughed. "You did great" Simon said in laughter.

They had lots of fun that day. JJ was still worried about Harry though. After that hit, he wasn't sure he was..fully here? Eventually he eased off and It was fine. The night rolled around and everyone was trying to get to sleep. Til a loud bang sent everyone flying out of bed. Someone repeatedly knocked on the door. Josh grabbed Simons hand and Simon grabbed his. Vik hid behind Tobi, Ethan was..asleep again? and JJ and Harry were by the door ready to open it. They opened it to see the guy Tobi had shouted at before. "Hey" He said to JJ and Harry. "Is Tobi in here?" He asked. "What do you want?" Tobi said, standing his ground. "Nothing" he lied. He pushed his way in. Josh and Simon were still shit scared holding hands.

Harry noticed them as the guy was walking to Tobi. Harry smirked at them both. He looked at JJ and whispered to him. "Look at Josh and Simon" he whispered letting JJ See. Josh and Simon looked at the guy. Not paying attention to Harry and JJ. "Holy!" JJ was stopped by Harry putting his hand over his mouth. "SHHHHH" he whispered.

"You took guts today you did" he smiled patting him on the back. "Yeah, and what is it to you?" Tobi scowled. "Who is it? Who is gay here?" He looked round to see Simon and Josh shaking. "Oh" he smiled. "You scared? Of me?" He sarcastically asked. He laughed. "Aye, leave them alone, Josh has had too many panic attacks" Harry said as he got the guys attention. "Just trying to make friends, you wouldn't want to make an enemy of me, you know?" He threatened. "Well that's too late, cause you're an enemy of us" JJ said as he gestured for him to leave. "Is that true JJ? You left me and the guys for these, what's the nicest way of putting it, people? Same goes for you Tobi. You've both changed, there isn't any free entry now, if you want to be treated like these guys, oh, I'll treat you, like these guys" he threatened as he left the room.

Josh and Simon came to the realisation as he left, and let go of each others grasp. They all settled down and fell asleep.
