All a bunch of animals

Yesterday was fucking horrible! I got my head bashed and then the teachers told me how much of a waste of life I am. They don't have to remind me of things I already know. But anyways... hopefully today goes at least a little better.

I am getting close to Gerard's locker and they are all there, as usual. Why aren't they calling my name? I know they see me. What the fuck is going on?! Are they high? I'm not complaining that i'm not getting beat up, but i'm just not used to this. Wait... What if they are planning something? Oh god. I'm not prepared for this!

I pass by them. I pass by! They didn't even call my name or anything. They must be high. I look back at them and Gerard is staring at me. After about a minute of me awkwardly watching Gerard stare at me, I look back in front of me and then back at him again. I notice him crack a small smile. It wasn't much, but it wasn't fake either. It was genuine and pure. I turn my head and go to class.

Great. My first class is science. Fucking disgusting. Unless you want to be a scientist, you need to know almost nothing in that class. It should be optional like music and art. I mean, who needs to know how fast an atom moves in your daily life? If you do have to know, there is something called the internet.

I walk in and go sit in the back. We don't have individual desks. We have to sit at tables with two other people, but not for me! No one likes me really, so I have the table all to myself. I put my stuff on the table, and as i'm doing that, I notice something horrible.

The teacher shouts "Hello everyone. We have a new student, Gerard, in our class now! Go take a seat Gerard."

Oh no. Why is he walking towards my table? Oh don't do it! Don't sit down!

"Hello, Frank." He says with a lot of confidence.

I nervously sit up a put my head down a little. "H..hi." I say quietly.

We are about fifteen minutes into class and he taps me on the shoulder. I look over to him and he whispers "Got a pencil?" I nod and slide a pencil over to him.

"Thanks." He says. I completely zone out and ignore the class for a good five minutes, thinking about Gerard and why he wasn't being an asshole. I jolt when i hear the teacher call my name.

She says "Can you explain what this means in your own words?" She points to the board and there's a dumb ass vocab word written in big black letters.

"Uh...umm..." Gerard cuts me off and says "You barley told us how to even say that ridiculous word and you ask frank to say what it means? That's a load of crap to me." I look over to him and he looks back to me. I smile a little and put my head down. "Thank you, Gerard."

The teacher got pissed! "Excuse me Gerard? What makes you think you can swear and back talk me in this class? It's unacceptable." She says with a dark tone and angry face.

"I'm only saying what I feel and pretty much the truth. Its the truth that you made a stupid move by asking Frankie that. I am allowed to say my opinion. that's not your choice to make, but mine." I look up at him again and hes staring at the teacher with a smart ass look on his face.

Frankie? He called me Frankie. No one has ever called me that except for Mikey. Does he think I am his friend or something? Because I am not! what is going on with him? Jesus Christ this is fucking me up!

I guess Gerard won that round because the teacher just rolled her eyes and went back to the lesson. He looks over at me and says "I feel bad about yesterday. We didn't mean to hurt you that bad. I talked to Mikey and I realized just some stuff. I'm not going to get into what stuff. If you don't want us to bother you anymore, just tell me."

"If you don't want to hurt me when it gets to a certain point, then you wouldn't beat me up at all. I'm not in control of what you do so its your decision weather you want to stop hurting another living thing or not. And don't call me 'Frankie' again please."

He looked at me with a surprised/upset face. "Fine, Frank. I'm sorry i said anything to you or stood up for you while you were in la la land. When Mikey finds out, I don't think he will be happy about the way you talked to his older brother."

"You've told me way worse! I wasn't mean or anything Gerard! Fucking think before you speak! You think Mikey likes you?! Your a horrible brother to him! Hes told me how mean you are. I bet your a horrible friend too!" I say with a pissed off tone. I know he will literally kill me tomorrow morning for saying this but i just don't care anymore.

Hes left speachless, and nothing more happening through the long school day. I guess we will just see what tomorrow has to hold.
