Indifference

"look at him! He's a freak!" he yells. I feel myself shrink at his comment. What if he see's me that way? What if Eric see's me as a freak?
"A freak? hmm... you know, you have a point... he is a freak." Eric says in all seriousness. I feel my world crumble around me as I tense.
"But he's my freak so back the fuck off Jonathan." he continues. Eric snakes an arm around me and grabs my forearm pulling me into his side protectively. My fear and panic slowly drains away as I'm reassured he's on my side.
it gives me somewhat of a comfort and enough confidence to speak. "s-so what if I'm different. Doesn't mean you call me a freak and pretend you're better than me. You're more insecure than me if you have to pick on people smaller than you to feel bigger. Stronger. Smarter." I mock. Jonathan growls at me before glaring at Eric. "One of these days, I'ma catch little emo snot head alone, and when I do, he'll wish he was never born." Jonathan warns. I feel myself shrink again, inching closer (if that's even possible) to Eric. John was terrifying, and he knew it. Eric gripped my arm a little tighter, "You'll have to go through me to get to him." he said grinning. John huffed and turned around, leaving Eric and I standing alone in the parking lot.

Will I make it through high school? I have no fucking idea. Guess we'll find out though.
I'm Kian, I'm 17! This douchebag is Eric. He's 19. Turns out, I think I like him...
