First Day of Dread High 6

“Well, you see, it’s not that simple. Everybody looks to me for the answers. If I don’t do exactly what they do, I’m the dork. You know, it’s not that easy to be one of the most liked guys in school”. He said. Man, you should have seen the look on his face. His eyes were closed and he had one hand on the back of his neck. He looked like he was trying to hold back tears. What will I do? What will I say? “Well, maybe, just maybe, they’ll listen to you. You know, ‘cause your the star of the track team. Maybe they’ll back down.” Right after i said that he opened his eyes and straightened up. “Maybe…. It wouldn’t hurt to.. Say something next time. What’s the worst that can happen? They say I’m a dumbass and walk away?”, he said. He smirked and gave me big hug. “Ya’ know, you should be like a school counselor or sumthin’ ”, he said with a grin. Then he kissed the side of my cheek. I was in HEAVEN !!!!!
