Alex POV-
I walked down the halls of the Literature Building with John by my side. John and I have Poetry Class together in the morning every Wednesday.
"How on earth do you write so well!" John groaned.
"I don't know..." I said.
"Why do you write like you're running out of time?"
"Because I am,"
"Alex just please let me copy your notes, one last time!" he begged.
I groaned, "John, can't you stay awake in class for at least five minutes?"
"Says the one who stays awake all night," he crossed his arms while walking.
"Yes, I do, because I have to finish my essays!"
"But it's still due next month!"
"I like to be advanced," I reasoned.
"Yes, Alex you're overworking yourself. You can get sleep-deprived!" his voice concerned.
"I already am. But I have the power of coffee," I laughed, raising my coffee cup.
"But- hold on, is that Jeffershit?" he said. I snickered at the name. "Alex, look! He's beating up Peggy!" And by that we ran over to help. Before Jefferson made another black eye at Peggy, I tackled him while John helped Peggy up. I placed numerous punches in his face until there was a purple bruise showing up. My knuckles were bloody from punching his jaw. I saw John and Peggy disappear to the Infirmary at the corner of my eye. I got distracted and Jefferson had his chance to give me a couple of punches. He knocked me out of conscious.
And next, it was black.
John POV-
I helped Peggy walk into the Infirmary as she was limping. I set her down by the front desk. "Stay here," I said. I turn to face the nurse, "Please help my friend. She was beaten up by Jeff-"
"Third time this week.." she grumbled.
"What? Yes, please help her. I'll be back with Alex..."
I remembered Alex and ran back to the halls. I saw a crowd surrounding Jefferson and Alex. Jefferson knocked out Alex and I rushed to his aid. "Jefferson, fuck off," I growled. He smirked and gave me a kick before leaving. I brushed it off. I'm used to this.
I carried Alex back to the Infirmary. He was unconscious. I rushed to the nurse who helped me set him down at one of the beds.
The nurse said, "Your friend is there," she pointed to a nearby bed. I smiled a 'thank you' to her.
"Peggy! Are you alright?" I asked, worried.
"John! Y-yeah, I'm f-fine..." she looked down. "Th-thanks. Y-you guys saved me..."
"Peggy, of course! We would save you, we're your best friends,"
"Thanks...Where's Alex!?!"
"Oh... He's over there. Unconsci-"I pointed to Alex but was cut off by Peggy crying.
"W-what?"
"Peggy, it's not your fault. Jefferson is just being shit"
"But-"
