The Only Hope For Me Is You

So the bell rang for what i asumed was lunch and i walked out of History class quite happy that i'd avoided socializing too much, the corridors were busy and i entered the cafeteria to find a crown circling some people and they were making a lot of noise.
" you're just a weeny baby " a big guy said to someone, i couldn't tell who they were until i heard them
" o-okay" the boy said, that boy was Mikey
I think i just kinda stood there for a while with my mouth hanging open watching, the big guy had Mikey on the ground, Mikey had obviously been punched because there was blood dripping from his nose
" e-excuse me" i said pushing through the crowd, Mikey looked up at me and i saw his teary eyes
" who are you " the bully said stepping towards me
" It doesn't matter who i am " i said spitting my words out " just leave him alone, he hasn't done anything to you "
" that's right, he hasn't "
" so why the hell have you punched him?"
" well... he's vunerable and helpless, what else am i meant to do...tomato"
i saw Mikey from the corner of my eye try to scaramble away 'go' i mouthed to him
" what did you call me?"
"tomato" he started laughing " dude your hair looks like a tomato " the whole group started laughing
" well i guess i do.. its better to be a tomato than an asshole "
that was when he punched me.. i don't remember anything else apart from waking up in the nurses office, i quickly got up to look at the time...2:40.. great still 40 minuets until the end of school, i decided to skip my last class and walked to the toilets and stayed in there

15 minuets had passed and i noticed another presence in the room, it was Frank
" Hi " i spoke quietly
" oh hi, what are you doing here " he shuffled towards me and sat next to me on the floor
" avoiding classes, what about you?"
" doing the same, how do you feel?"
" what do you mean?" i could feel the warmth of his body
" well you were beaten up and i carried you to the nurses office"
i looked at him thinking how he could carry me and smiled
" thank you, i feel okay i guess "
" no problem, Lee's a jerk anyway, did you know the boy he was picking on?"
" well yeh, he's my brother "
" it's so kind that you stuck up for him "
" well someone has too, he doesn't stick up for himself "
" i have a feeling that's not the last you'll see of Lee though"
i chuckled to myself
" no, you're wrong, it's the other way around, that wasn't the last he'll see of me"
" ooh.. sassy" he chuckled with me
" anyway, would you like to hang out later maybe?"
" i can't tonight, i have tutoring but maybe tomorrow?"
" great i'll see you then"
" can't wait" and that was the first time i'd seen him smile.. oh what a beautiful smile he had
