"darryl..darryl..wake up.."
i wake up to hear my mother shaking me, i open my eyes and sit up.
"good morning cupcake." she says softly, getting off my bed and walking to the door.
"morning." i yawn, get up and out of bed.
she smiles and leaves my room.
i get ready for school and stuff (i can't be bothered explaining lol) and walk out to the kitchen.

"you sure you don't want breakfast darryl?" my mother says concerned.
"i'm sure." i say before grabbing my backpack and walking to the door.
"bye cupcake." she says waving slightly.
"bye." i smile walking out the door.

i arrive at the bus stop and wait with my friends.
because like- isn't that what i normally do?
i kinda wanted things to change.
life is so simple, and i hate it.
guess i'll deal with it for a little.
the bus pulls up and the doors open.
i get inside with my little group and run to the back like we always do.
they be stupid like they always do, and i look at the door and wait for zak to walk in.
once the bus stops again i smile waiting for him to walk on, and he does.
"hey darryl." he says waving and smiling. "helloo george, dave, jacob and mega!" he adds jokingly.
we all laugh and zak sits beside me.
again, we do what we usually do.
be idiots, tell stupid stories, sometimes talk about what's going on at home.
and when the bus pulls up, i walk out next to zak and talk to clay and vincent.
simple, right?
yeah.
but for once (well not really 'once' but who cares), something was different.
clay was wearing a little mask to cover up his face.
it was a mask with a little smile on it, he has never warn that before.
well at least i haven't seen him wear it.
"hey clay..why are you wearing that mask again?.." asks zak, he seemed really worried.
"oh it's nothing." clay replied happily.
i couldn't tell if he was smiling because of the mask but, judging by his tone of voice, gonna guess he is.
vincent pulled clay into a hug and whispered something.
me and zak just smirked at each other, giggled, then looked back at them.
they pulled out of the hug, and looked at us.
we try to hold our laughs in, but we couldn't help it.
we burst out laughing and vincent just folds his arms while clay looks down at the ground flustered.

~~in class :>~~
i sit down next to zak, resting my head on my hand.
"i'll be right back, just gotta use the rest room." he says, with a sorted worried smile.
"you ok?" i ask, lifting my head off my hand.
"y-yeah, i'm fine it's just-" he went silent, "don't worry, i'll be back."
he got out of his chair and ran to the door.
"wait zak!-"
he was already gone. guess i'll be alone for a little.
i sigh and rest my head on my hand again.

——————————————————

i quickly run out of the room so darryl can't ask anymore questions.
i feel bad doing that but, a dudes gotta do what a dudes gotta do. i creep up to the boys' bathrooms hearing quiet sniffles and cries.
i look inside to see clay's mask on the floor a long with clay looking into the mirror crying with a bruise on his cheek.
my mouth hangs open and tears start filling my eyes.
"clay?" i ask as i walk in the bathroom trying to blink back my tears.
he turns around startled, and then panics.
"z-zak?! w-what are you doing here? go away!" he says sitting on the floor and covering his face.
"what happened?" i say as i sit down and crawl towards him. (lmao this kinda sound disgustang since he's in a bathroom)
"i-i.." he sniffs, trying not to cry.
"you can tell me anything, you know that right?" i say wrapping my arm around him.
"i-i know it's just..well.." he looks at me and wipes his tears.
"talk to me buddy, i won't judge."
"i..i told my mother..t-that i was gay.." he began trying to hold in his tears, "b-but she didn't accept me, and she h-hit me..really hard..a lot-..i-in the same place each time..and..and..i..."
he bursted into tears, i pull him into a hug to comfort him.
"shh..it'll be ok.." i say.
he cries into my shoulder, and i just smile tears starting to form in my eyes.
i hear a small gasp from the door, and then foot steps. it sounded like the person that was there was running?
well that is if it was a person.
i just continued to comfort clay until he let it all out.
we pulled out of the hug and i smiled at him.
"thanks zak, you're a great friend." he said wiping his tears.
"no problem bro." i say standing up.
he stands up along with me.
"do you have any like bandage to cover this?" he asks, as he puts his hand on his bruise, frowning.
"hmm..i should have some in my pocket." i put my hand in my pocket and try and find one.
surprisingly, i did have one.
wait why the hell do i have like 20 of them in here? oh well.
i pull one out and hand it to clay.
"thAnK yOoOoOoUUuU!" he says hugging me.
"woah chill- it was just a bandage." i say laughing.
he stops hugging me and smiles.
"why do you even have one in your pocket?" he asks putting on the bandage.
"i have no idea to be honest." i giggle.
"we should probably head back to class."
"yeah-"

—————————————————

i fidget with my fingers anxiously, when is zak coming back? (haha it rhymed-)
i'm worried..it shouldn't take that long to use a rest room.
"hey! darryl! sorry i took so long." i hear zak's voice and it makes me feel a lot better.
"don't scare me like that! i was so worried." i say.
he laughs and sits next to me.
"glad we're always really early, i can't believe class hasn't started. i thought we- i was in there for hours!"
wait why did he say we? eh whatever, i'll let it slide.
i look at the time, "8:45.." i say "we have 15 minutes before class starts, what should we-"
suddenly a bunch of people begin walking in.
"nevermind i guess." i laugh, zak giggles.

~~lunch~~

"hey..guys..have you seen vincent?" clay asks, looking at the table.
"actually- not since this morning now that i think about it, why?" i say.
"he wasn't in class.." clay replies, i little worried.
"he isn't here either..how can he just disappear on us?" zak said looking around the cafeteria.
"i..i don't know." i say, now started to go lil bit worried about where he could be.
"should we search for him like after school or something?" zak suggested.
"doesn't clay walk with vincent after school anyway?" i ask.
"hmm..that's true. maybe i'll see him there." clay smiles.
"until then...let's be idiots!" zak laughs while throwing a muffin from his food tray at me.
"oh you're gonna pay for that!" i giggle, and grab a random piece of food off my plate and throw it at him.
clay joins in and we all just have a small food fight together.
it seemed to make clay feel better so that's a good thing.
but while talking to him i can't help but notice that bandage on his cheek.
i hope he's ok..
