dream until next :0

I'm in my room, in the corner, talking to my 'friend' Eret on the phone. (i'm so sorry chat) "Toms.. if you don't keep talking to me i'll do it!" They say. "I'm really fucking sorry Eret. I have to go though, my stepdad is coming back soon!" I say. "Fine. This is because of you."

As soon as i heard his car pull up in the driveway, i shot up out of the corner. I rushed to put my phone on my top shelf and hide it, and i heard the front door slam. I take my math homework off my desk, grab a pencil, and start writing. His footsteps upstairs are loud and echoing. He shoves open my door to see my clean room and me doing homework.

"What are you doing. You should have finished that earlier." He grabs my arm and slams my body into my wall, and starts kicking me really hard in the arms. He doesn't stop until he gets tired, and for a drunk old man, was surprisingly long. I'm in so much pain, all i can do is lay on the ground and cry. (brocken😔😢💔) Slowly, i fall asleep.

"Thomas. Wake up." The supervisor is crouched in front of the desk.

"Hm?"

"You okay? You were crying." She says calmly.

Now i notice the tears on my face. I look around the room to see nobody but the supervisor. A brown haired woman, maybe 25 years old.

"I guess." I say quietly.

"You wanna talk about it?" She asks

"Um.. no thanks. Where's everybody at?" I ask.

"They're all in their classrooms. I hope you can find your way back to yours. See you around, kid."

"See you." I say, walking out the door. I wobble over to my classroom, still
(sorry i just thought back to the time my teacher had me call my mom in front of the whole class because i was talking in line) hurt from the whole shin-bashing. I sit in the front corner, next to Wilbur but far away from Ranboo.

Wilbur hums questioningly, like a 'Hm?'. Anyway- I just shake my head and he nods and looks back to the teacher.

"Thomas. That isn't your seat. Go sit by Ranboo." Mrs. Puffy says sternly.

"I am not sitting by him." I say.

"Why not?"

"Have you seen my face? I think the black eye and bloody nose are noticeable." I laugh.

"Thomas."

"Fine.."

I take my things and scramble over to the table next to Ranboo's. He does a stupid eye roll, and i just look away.

"Okay, we should head to lunch. Thomas, stay behind a moment." Mrs. Puffy says.

"Oooooh..!" Dream mocks. "He probably doesn't even eat, look at him." Ranboo says. Dream snickers. (IM SORRY I LOVE YOU RANBOO BUT I HAVE TO) That, out of all things, shattered my heart. Wilbur's eyes widen, and he looks back at me with a sensitive frown.

I also frown, because i've been self conscious about my weight almost my whole life.

"Dude, not cool." Wilbur says to Ranboo. "Oh c'mon, it was just a little joke." He replies.

"Okay, but 'little jokes' can add up and sooner or later you could have someone kill themself."

"Y-Yeah, my friend um.. commited. It really isn't cool." I say.

"Sowwy, didn't realize you guys were so swensitivwe." Ranboo mocks. Wilbur and I just frown more.

They all end up leaving for lunch, and my teacher brings me to her desk.

"So.. what's been going on?"

"What do you mean-'' I ask.

"Why have you been late so many times? What's going on with Ranboo?" She asks.

"Uh, I had to go talk to Mr. Manifold about something, Ranboo got all curious so he kept bugging me to tell him what we talked about. He asked you if we could go outside, and we did. He brought me out to the concrete area, and kept asking. He threatened to hurt himself if i didn't tell him. That made me have a panic attack because of some other thing, so he calls me weak and flips me off. I punch him, he does the same, blah blah blah. But he starts kicking my shins, which Dream gave so many bruises to days earlier. I fall over onto the brick wall and knock myself out. We come back in, and because he brought me outside we were late. Detention, nothing special, then we're in the classroom. You sit me next to him, and say i have to talk to you before lunch. Dream goes "ooooh" and Ranboo bodyshames me. It makes me really upset because i've struggled with my body image, and it upsets Wilbur too. We both tell him it's not nice and could lead to suicide and he just mocks us."

"That's a lot to take in." She says, thinking. "Can you show me your shins?"

I do, she looks horrified.

"Um, can you walk okay?"

"I guess."

"You can go to the cafeteria if you'd like." She says.

I walk out and to the cafeteria, to see everyone but Ranboo at one table. I sit down next to them.

"Hi." I say.

"Are you alright?" Wilbur asks.

"Yeah, i suppose."

Lunch goes on pretty quietly, with some small talk every few minutes.

"Sorry i've been so dramatic today." I say.

"What? You haven't been dramatic, what do you mean?"

"Nothing."

More silence.

"Why didn't you get food today?" Techno asked.

"Not hungry." I respond, looking at Wilbur.

By this point, Wilbur's already connected the dots. Niki, not really. Fundy and Techno have their suspicions.

"I'll be back." I say.

I got up and walked over to this brown haired kid's table. "Wanna hang out with us? We're missing someone."

"Okay..?" He responds. I lead him over to our table, have him and i sit down, and have all of us introduce ourselves.

"I'm Karl, i like Minecraft." He says.
"I'm Niki, i like Minecraft too." She says.
"I'm Wilbur, i like music."
"I'm Tommy, no one thinks i'm mentally stable."
"I'm Techno, I abuse chickens."
"I'm Fundy, I laugh like a fox."

I'm bored. The bell rings, we go outside, and Karl asks if he can bring someone along. We say yes, he brings the black haired kid from earlier.

"I'm Quackity."

tired :0
