Ryan left soon after that, to my disappointment. I asked him if he wanted to stay over but he texted me that his mom was waiting for him at home. I understood and led him to the door. He walked out with his hand covering his face, turning back only to wave goodbye. I grinned, waving my hand back and leaning against the door.
"See you later Ryan!" He stopped and seemed to hesitate on his feet before nodded and walking off. I sighed and closed the door behind me as soon as I couldn't see the small boy's body.
Now it was just me and this big ass house.
"That was a trip..." I said to myself. I ducked through the doorway to enter the living room. I picked up his pillow and grabbed the empty pizza tray. Ryan ate at least half of it and apologized for taking so much over text. Of course, I didn't mind. When he was sleeping I could practically hear his stomach screaming for food. He apologizes too much!
I can't help but think...he evaded the question about not talking. It's not that I mind it at all, but I can't help but wonder why. It has to be something to do with the bruising on his lips and face.
I'm not stupid.
I saw that those guys. They were the real fucking deal. They were going to hurt him with no remorse. Just like he was nothing but they're play toy. A stupid pet. What losers.
My fists clenched around the dirty dishes in my hands.
I threw the empty tray into the sink and made a note to take care of dishes later. I was too pissed to think about it now. I might end up burning the kitchen.
Calm down Luke.
I checked my phone looking at the numbers displayed on the screen. Ryan left about ten minutes ago, so maybe he's home by now. I should make sure he got home alright.
I travelled up my long set of stairs to one of the bedrooms. I crawled into the bed with no problem and immediately whipped my phone out. Maybe I shouldn't text him already...I mean he was just here...
"Ugh!" I exclaimed, throwing the phone on the blankets below me. "I don't want to seem rude..." I buried my face in my hands and contemplated texting Ryan. "He doesn't seem like the type to get mad often. He wouldn't mind!" I reached out for my phone but stopped midway. "No, he's going to think I'm annoying if I text him!" I pulled my hands away and crossed my legs, staring at the devil's box in front of me. "Humans are so complicated." I let out a huge sigh and lunged for my phone. I opened texting before my mind had a chance to retaliate and sent a quick text message.
...
Hey Ryan
...
"That's so weird." I stuck my tongue out at the screen. Almost immediately the three little dots popped up. I noticed that the dots popped up when Ryan was writing back earlier. That means he saw the text. I almost regretted texting him with how long it was taking for a response.
...
Hi
...
"Is it my turn?" I asked myself. "What should I say?" I tapped my chin lightly and decided to play it safe.
...
Did you get home okay?
...
"What the fuck is wrong with you." I muttered to myself, placing an arm over my head. I sound like my mother. Only thing I needed to add at the end of that was sweetie and it literally would have been a text from my mother.
...
Yeah I'm good.
...
"Okay Luke." I sat up and stared at my screen. "Just text him and be normal..." I have something to admit, I have no idea what's normal here.
...
Can you tell me what school is like here? I was just really curious
Sure. Do you want the truth or do you want what they tell parents.
Truth?
The entire school is a shithole full of awful people and horrible teachers.
Wow I never expected that out of you.
What were you expecting? Those kids stole my homework and attempted to beat me up. What does the school do about bullies? Nothing. It's not their problem and you're a pansy if you can't just deal with it.
How much have those guys done to you?
A lot.
I don't understand why. You aren't rude, you have an amazing personality, and you're quite cute. In the short time that I have known you I feel like there's nothing about you to hate.
...
Ryan suddenly stopped texting me. I waited for several minutes but nothing came after that. Maybe I went overboard. Maybe I hurt his feelings. What if he's having some kind of PTSD right now? I jumped up out of my bed before sitting back down. What am I going to do? I don't even know where he lives.
What did I think I was going to do?
Beep
I turned to my phone and quickly opened it to read my newest text.
...
I think I over shared. It must be because of the time. Sorry for bothering you with all my problems Luke. I'll see you at school tomorrow.
...
Shit.
Okay I definitely said something or did something wrong. I combed through my hair and tossed my phone onto the dresser.
"I have to apologize if I see him tomorrow..." I sighed and thought for a moment. "I'm an idiot." I sat for a moment before an idea formed in my head. My body sprung up from my bed with a giddy nature. I sprinted down my stairs and looked all over my living room. I spent several minutes examining everything before finally, I found it.
A grey bandana laying on the floor tucked under the couch. Don't know how it got there...
"I'll give this to him tomorrow and apologize!" I fist bumped the air. "He'll be so happy once he knows I found this!" I ran my fingers across the soft fabric, tracing the edges. I flipped it over to reveal small red spots and some dirt on the bottom. It wasn't much but it was enough to notice. I took a deep breath and tapped it lightly. "He's in need of someone to help." I clutched the bandana at my side. "I'll fuck up anyone that dares to mess with him again." My mother's voice rang in my ears.
"Some kids can be cruel and it's better for them to die then continue to be assholes."
I'd promised myself that I'd never kill anyone, but that doesn't mean I can't beat them to a pulp.
