Ride with me

Chapter 3 I will Change

"P'Zero."

Screaming his name, I woke up in the hospital the day later. I had fainted right at the crash side from pain and only now woke up. Hearing my scream everyone started to gather around my bed lucky for me my parents weren't in the room but outside talking to the doctor so they didn't hear me wake up screaming that name. It would have been too embarrassing. The rest of the boys though heard it right away teasing me. "Oh, now you finally showing him respect?" P'Win was the first to laugh. "Damn I wish I had someone wake up screaming my name like that." P'Janon joined the teasing. I did my best to ignore them looking over to the other bed in the room were P'Zero was laying. He seemed to be asleep and the others told me that he refused to get treated until I was taken care of saying it was his responsibility and his driving that got me in the situation. Only after the doctors assured him, I was ok he finally got himself checked out and now was sleeping in the bed next to mine. Both our wounds weren't that bad. Mine were only scratches and burns from pulling over the asphalt and a broken rib. P'Zero had taken most of the damage trying to protect me his leg was broken his skin was scratched like mine and he had two broken ribs and a damaged tendon in his wrist. Lucky enough we both wore helmets and thick jackets or else it would have been worst the doctor told me later.

Soon after I woke up my parents came into the room. It only took them a few minutes to going form concern about my health to scolding me for being reckless. From what they said the boys never told anyone that it was my fault that P'Zero lost his balance but instead he took all the blame saying that he got distracted and that it was an accident. My parents still thought it was my fault for getting on that bike and well guess what after that I was grounded for the rest of the semester. But well I was ok with it. Since it would take weeks for me to heal and by then the semester would be over anyway. And to be honest I think my mum knew that. That's one of the things I love about her the most she was worried about her kids and she was the first to raise hell to protect them but she never was unreasonable. She had seen the changes I had gone through the last week and she realized why I changed too, even though she was worried because I got hurt she knew that it was an accident and that these boys were probably the reason I actually started to show something like confidence now and then so she did punish me to remind me to be careful. But the punishment wasn't out of proportion.

After that, I spent the last week of my semester break in the hospital with those guys hanging around all day bringing games snacks and what else to entertain me and P'Zero. It wasn't until the day before we would get released when the topic of that night was brought up again. With a really serious face suddenly P'Tom got up standing by the door as if to make sure no one would enter. P'Win got up standing on the end of my bed while P'Janon stood close to the wall and P'Seven close to the window. Right away I realized they were boxing me in giving me no way to escape no place to run. Worried and scared I looked up. "What's going on?" That's when P'Zero started to speak. "We all know what happened that night. How will you repay your debt?" Breathing out I finally got what this was about and I lowered my head all fear leaving me since ever since I woke up, I was ready to pay any price. "I don't know if I can ever repay you even if I give my life to you it might not be enough," I answered trying my best to sit straight and with contempt without kneeling on the bed since I was still in too much pain for that. "I accept your life as repayment from now on until I see your debt as paid you will be my servant," P'Zero spoke in a really serious and a little festive voice. I looked up in confusion finally seeing that the others did their best to hold back their laughter. "Damn Yu... I lost money because of you... I really thought it would take you longer than that to agree on being his savant." P'Seven whined looking disappointed as he handed money over to P'Win. Damn, they had been teasing me again and I walked right into it. But now there was no way back I was this guy's servant until he said otherwise. But to be honest I wasn't mad about it.

Now you know why I am this man's servant. Long story, right? Was it what you expected when I started telling it? Well before we finish here let me catch you up on the rest up to the point one and a half years later, the day we started at.

After getting realised from the hospital I was on bed rest and missed the start of the semester. The first week every day after school the biker would come over to my place to scrounge food of my mom and to bring me some entertainment. After they would pack up all the snacks and food my mom would give them to go over to P'Zero's house. After a few weeks, I was finally cleared to go back to school at least and finish the semester. After that those bikers had their graduation ceremony lucky enough, I got my mom's permission to go and they were off to university. But honestly, that made things only more difficult for me. The second I was healed up and not grounded anymore P'Zero started to utilized me to the fullest. Since not all of the gang went to the same university, I only saw them now and then as P'Zero started to make new friends. I got to know them during my many errant runs I had to do after school. I Still played the drums so I still had to bring them into the pub every Friday. I also started to change. During my last year in high school, I got confident I started working out finally got rid of my arcane and I grew the last cementers I hopped for finally making me reach 176 centimetres in total still not that tall but I wasn't small anymore either. I pumped up, got muscles and started dressing the part more and more. I even got recognition form some of the kids in school after I finally, nearly at the end of my school life stood up to my bullies. That last year of high school might have been the busiest I ever had. I always had a full plate with school, music club and music academy but after I became P'Zero's servant I really started to realize what the phrase too busy to eat meant. In his first year, P'Zero entered the campus moon competition, founded a bike club and became head of his year's first-semesters for his faculty. Consequently, I was the servant for all these jobs doing half of his workload whenever I actually could help aside from that I had to attend all the university events to carry around his stuff. I was lucky that he cared about my grades since the university he was attending was prestige enough to not let everyone attend. P'Zero was dead on set to get me into the same university so if I told him that I had exams or other school activities that would give me more points he would always give me the space to study and perform well but every second I wasn't busy with school or studying I was running errands for him or follow him around with big bags on my shoulders. Once a bully always a bully... but well I had chosen this faith for me and I was ready to bear it with everything that came with it. From less sleep to regular hardcore work out since P'Zero had to maintain his perfect muscles and didn't want to work out alone, to martial arts classes. I did everything without whining or complaining. And finally, I got a reward after my graduation and my acceptance letter for the university P'Zero gave me the rest of my break to do what I want until the start of my first and his second semester. I took the time to actually get ready for university. I finally got my skin taken care of removed my acne scars. I got rid of my glasses and got fitted contacts. Now the only chance anyone would have to see me with those glasses was if I wanted them to. Lastly, I got a dorm room and moved out of my parents' house and with that my first semester at university began but that is a story for another day.
