alejandro's pov:
it's been a week since my dad has first hit me and he's been hitting me ever since mainly when my mom wasn't home and after he would do it he'd apologize and give the excuse he was going through a lot i was scared to tell my mom and i just felt bad for him
but right now i'm getting ready to go to school "hey son" my dad said ruffling my hair i have a sad smile "hey imma go now" i said leaving out the door and there was mattia smiling waiting for me "hey you ok you've been down these couple of days" he said wrapping his arm around me
"oh i've just been tired" i said smiling and then changing the subject "so you and cynthia" i said shoving him a bit "nah we're just friends" he said laughing it off "mhm sure i don't think she thinks y'all are just friends" i said as we walked in the building "can y'all come with me" the principal said we looked at each other confused
we sat at the chairs as the principal cleaned his office for us to sit "come in" he said opening the door we then went in the office and sat at another pair of chairs "have you heard about the student who tried to kill themselves last night" he said with a pen "oh yea" i said looking down "well if you boys need anything don't be afraid to ask for help or come to me or any other adult your not alone" i nodded and he dismissed us
"that's bullshit" mattia said "what do you mean" i asked confused "they wouldn't be checking up on students if that hadn't happened they don't care they're trying to make themselves look good if they really cared they would've been did they but no" he said annoyed "your right"
mattia's pov:
i was mad most of the day and i knew who the person was who tried to you know i was one of the people who found her well not really she called me and told me and i told her parents and they found her in the tub bleeding out i called the ambulance and rushed over to her house
when i got there she was wrapped up in a towel crying in the floor with her parents around her "thank you" her mom said hugging me while crying the ambulance finally arrived and took her she's fine now but the reason she tried to do it was because of the people in this school
they bullied her and made her feel bad annie her body they called he nasty names which i don't wanna think of again it's all just sad i fake imagine how she felt if she died that night it would've felt like me fault i would be sad for a while
while thinking of all this i thought of alejandro if he was to do that i really wouldn't be myself even though we've just started talking about a month ago i've know him for years we just never really talked or knew each other names we'd always just pass by each other in the hallways not noticing each other but i knew he was sad by the way he carried himself and he's becoming like that again
i came loose him because he makes me feel like a better person i was never like this i didn't bully people i just didn't care who's they felt about what i said or did well i guess it was bullying but i've changed because of him he just makes a light appear in me i can't loose him he's too important
A/N hi guys sorry for the spam but i joel your all doing well and if y'all ever wanna talk i'm here
