WARNINGS: Bullying and things of that nature

NOTES: Hey guys! I'm back with a request! I don't really have much to say about this except for enjoy! Also, I guess the reader is a teenager? I'm going to go with that. Anyways, enjoy.

Another day, another six hours of absolute torture.

You tossed your backpack into the corner of the room and face planted onto your bed, groaning. School was not your favorite thing in the world. The stress, the running around and the people. Uhg, the people.

They were all absolutely awful to you. They teased you, stole from you and sometimes were even violent with you. All you wanted to do everyday was just go home and sleep.

It didn't help that your only friend was a gigantic Crocodile man. Sure, he is a cannibal and he does kill people. but he's not so bad once you get to know him. He knows exactly what you're going through, and he tries to help in every way.

Speaking of him, he was in fact right outside. His glowing yellow eyes shining in the afternoon sunlight. You quickly opened your window, letting him inside. He ducked into your room, looking down at you.

He could sense that something was wrong. He always had a talent for that.

"It happen again?" he asked, his voice low and gritty.

You looked over at him and nodded slowly before looking at the floor. You sat down on your bed, your eyes not leaving the floor. Croc's eyes gleamed with sympathy.

He knew what it was like to be made fun of due to appearences. I mean, look at him! A lovely person such as you should never have to deal with such prejudice.

He gently sat down next to you, which gingerly patting your back with a huge scaled hand. You looked up at him and smiled, pulling him into a tight hug.

Croc returned the hug, gently wrapping his huge arms around you.

"If you ever need me to handle anyone for you, just ask." He said. You nodded.

"Thanks, Croc."

"Hey, get back here, you little runt!" The voice of one of your bullies said.

You were walking home, when they told you to stop and let them copy off your work. You ignored them, of course, and walked right past them with out even acknowledging their existence. This obviously displeased them to say the least, and now they were on your case.

"Leave me alone." You said coldly, not even looking them in the eye.

The bully then grabbed your shoulder, shoving you into an alleyway you were passing by, knocking you to the ground. You felt your knees scrape against the pavement as you landed, skidding a bit.

"Now, are you gonna let me copy, or what?" The bully seethed. You shook your head.

The bully slowly came up to you, ready to swing a fist, but you were quicker. You kicked them in the shin, causing them to how in pain as the stumbled after you while you ran.

In your hurry to get away, you didn't realize you were going further into the alley, and that it was a dead end. You bully regained their balance and were now coming towards you. You pressed your back up against the wall, waiting for the feeling of a fist hitting your face, but it never came.

Instead, a shadow creeped over you. You opened one eye to see your terrified bully's face as Croc rose up from a man hole that was in the alley.

Croc's​ form towered above the bully, he was growling under his breath. He took a giant step towards them and got uncomfortably close.

"Now..." He said, his voice laced with venom and anger, "You better leave them alone. I'm only going to say that once. And if you ever lay a hand on her again, I swear, I'll make you wish you hadn't."

Your bully ran out of the alley, half crying and half angry. Croc turned to you, his point teeth forming into a small grin at his triumph.

He then noticed the scrapes you had on your knees.

"Are you alright?" He asked. You nodded, dismissing it with the wave of your hand.

"I'll live." You replied. Croc walked you to you, placing both hands on your shoulder.

"If they ever bother you again, you gotta tell me, alright?" He said. You sighed and nodded. Croc smiled and gave you a quick hug before disappearing back into the sewers.

You were lucky to have a friend like him.
