Seth's POV

It was Monday morning...joy oh joy! I get to see Joshua today. Zach decided that he'd walk to school with me and Christy, he stayed as close to me as he could without it seeming that it was too close. Zach ended up starting the project by himself, I was there watching as he drew. Since I was still in pain I decided to get started on the written part of the project, telling the story or lesson being portrayed in the picture, I also got Zach's ideas as well for the written piece so that helped.

"How do you feel Seth?" Zach asked.

My face turned slightly pink, "I'm fine it's like the pain is gone completely...almost" I replied feeling a little embarrassed. Why am I feeling embarrassed?

"No I meant how do you feel about going to school?"

"Oh! Uhm... I-I don't know..." I admit in defeat.

Zach's hand slipped into mine and he gave my hand a squeeze and then let go. He smiled at me and I smiled back at him weakly wishing he didn't let go. I wish he would just tell everyone that he's bisexual I mean c'mon even if he gets teased and all that shit it's better than hiding how you feel about someone right??? I'm being unreasonable aren't I?

The rest of the walk to school was silent except for Christy's humming. The three of us reached to school really early today so we could meet up with this guy from the wrestling team. Oh boi here comes the nerves, I felt slightly sick as we entered the school.

The guys were waiting by Zach's locker.

"Yo Zach, Christy...uhm hi there" the guy said looking at me.

"Brent this is Seth he's my neighbour and friend" Zach said.

"Isn't he that new gay guy?" Brent asked

Zach nodded, "this guy Joshua he's a total asshole and he messed with Seth. We," he paused pointing at Christy and himself, "want him to suffer, to make sure he never does that bullshit to Seth or anyone ever again" Zach was getting visibly pissed.

"What exactly did he do?" Brent asked raising an eyebrow at me.

I looked at Zach who was watching me and nodded, he gave me the 'are you sure?' look and I nodded again.

"He raped Seth..." Zach said softly.

Brent's eyes widened, "That's fucking sick. Do I get to do I want to him or someone else calling the shots?" he seemed to be pissed and disgusted at the same time.

"Me! Me! I'm in charge" Christy smiled evilly.

I just stayed awkwardly silent. "So after school today?" she asked Brent.

"Definitely but not in school at home. I'm gunna kick his ass and tell mom and dad, maybe he'll finally get kicked out. He does shit all the time and they said if he did something stupid again they'd kick him out. He took it way too far this time" Brent said, running a frustrated hand through his hair.

"W-wait," my voice cracked, "you're his brother? I didn't even know He had one..."

"We tend to not associate with each other because he's disgusting and does messed up shit...like what he did to you.. I'll see you guys around four o'clock" he said and walked off giving me a sympathetic look.

When second period was over Christy walked with me to my locker. I hadn't seen Joshua all day but I know I'm going to see him soon. Zach was waiting by my locker like he promised I smiled at him and he smiled back.

I got my history books from my locker and the two of us left for class.

"How are you feeling now?" he asked me.

"Honestly...I'm scared..." I muttered

"I wish I could hug you right now and kiss you..." he whispered so only I could hear him.

As I stepped into the class I spotted Joshua sitting in his normal seat he looked up and smiled at me as if nothing happened between the two of us. I was shaking and I could feel the tears burning to come but I held myself together. Luke sat on the opposite side of the classroom glaring at Joshua.

Zach's hand rested on the small of my back and he pushed me gently "Sit with Luke and ignore Joshua" he whispered.

Miss Lawrence walked in, "Please take your seats Zach, Seth" she said looking at us both.

I walked towards her swallowing my fear, "I don't think Joshua is helping me with History... I'm still far behind and I think that you should assign someone else to help me...please..." I practically begged.

She nodded understandingly, "Alright Zach you'll help Seth with History right?"

Zach looked up, "Huh? Uh yea I guess"

I went and sat next to Luke who just smiled at me. I glanced at Joshua whose eyes were shooting daggers at me, he was pissed, I started shaking again.

-------------

School is finally over, all day I've never once been left alone, in case Joshua decided to do something to me. Zach and I found Christy the three of us were about to step out of the school doors when someone grabbed my hand.

"Can I talk to you a moment." Joshua's voice was annoyed and it sent shivers through me.

I glanced at Zach and Christy not sure what to say, then Zach gave me a reassuring smile and I nodded calming down a little bit, "You can say what you have to say to me in front of them, they're my friends..." I said trying not to let my fear drip into my voice.

"Babe," I cringed, "why are you ignoring me?" he said and then took a step closer to me and whispered, "you didn't tell anyone did you?" I shook my head and he took a step back, "you don't have to be afraid to tell your friends that we made love" I cringed again that was no where near love! "and now you belong to me" his eyes darkened as he said that and it made me take a step back.

Zach and Christy both stood next to me now and Zach gently rested his hand on my back and slowly rubbed it, I'm falling for him...

"What?!?" I heard Zach and Christy yell at me and Joshua wore a smirk.

Shit I said that out loud didn't I? I sighed, "No wait! That's not what I meant. I'm falling for someone else, he's a million times better than you and the fuck? I'm not yours! We did not make love! YOU RAPED ME!" I yelled my fear turning into anger, "I never belonged to you and I never will and plus we were never together we went on one stupid date that was fucking boring might I add and after that you fucking raped me!" I was yelling and people who were leaving had stopped to hear what was going on.

Joshua's voice dripped with venom, "You fucking asshole you weren't supposed to tell anyone or I'll do it again and you think that I won't do it again trust me I'll rape you again if I want" his voice was low so only Zach Christy and I heard him.

Christy gave the students who stopped a glare that said 'move along not your business so get lost' everyone scattered.

Zach chuckled lightly and my gaze of confusion met his gaze of contentment, "Well that's all I needed a confession" is what he said.

He took my hand and dragged Christy and I away I frowned, "You didn't believe me...?"

"Of course I believed you but now we can take him to court for rape we have his confession," I looked at him skeptically, "I already talked to Brent and we decided that this was the more mature way to do things and you'll always be safe with me..." he whispered the last part and blushed lightly.

I love them both...I think (boyxboy)Where stories live. Discover now
