Bully

"Hey have you seen the nerd today?" Aaron snickered nudging me

I rolled my eyes and put on a fake smile "pff no, quite glad to have no seen him" i said with a chuckle

"Eh! There he is now! Come on!" Aaron yelled running over to whom he call the punching bag

I looked up to see the innocent boys eyes turn to fear as I followed Aaron

Aaron stoped in-front of him and slammed his books on the ground

Then nate joined pulling off his backpack and throwing it what seems like a mile away

"Come here before I'm ashamed to have called you my friend!" Aaron yelled at me

I rolled my eyes and approached the small boy I looked down at his fearful eyes and tightened my fist, and lifted it towards his face

He scrunched up ready for impact. I looked over to Aaron to see him smiling waiting for me to do it.

Did I cave?

Yup.

As I watched the boy below me I felt sad, how could I have turned to thing kind of person?

Grayson quickly stood up looked at me deep in my eyes with pure sadness and then walked off.

Aaron patted me on the back and laughed, nate soon joined him as they cheered.

I quickly shrugged them off disgusted with them and myself and walked off.

As I walked home I found myself turning different ways soon distancing myself from my home.

I eventually stopped in front of his house, Grayson's.

Anxiety filled my body as I knew what I wanted to do but I didn't know what I would say or if he would even let me say anything at all.

I quickly knocked on the door and waited

Suddenly after a few seconds I heard the door unlock, and as it opened I could see Grayson's red puffy eyes and bruised face.

My eyes softened as I looked at him sadly.

He closed the door slightly, as if afraid of me "What the fuck do you want?" He asked

"I wanted to apologize" I said stepping a little closer which only cause Grayson to close the door more

"Please, I didn't want to do it" I pleaded

"Then why the hell did you?" He asked his cheeks turning red and his eyebrows furrowing together

"Because, b-ecau- I don't know! I guess I was pressured into it, I wanted to seem cool? I wanted to keep the fear people have over me? I don't know, I just wanted to apologize because I feel bad and it was a dick, I don't like who I've become, I wanna try and fix everything I've done wrong" I explained

Grayson looked down and then slowly opened the front door wider, a confused expression crossed my face.

"Come in" Grayson spoke

"Why? Shouldn't you hate me?" I asked

"If you want to be a better person you can talk to Me, you seem genuinely upset about what you did so I forgive you, not fully but slightly" Grayson said with a shrug

"If you don't want to you don't have to" Grayson added

"No it's cool" I said with a small smirk as I walked inside

Grayson showed me the way to his room and I jumped onto his bed

He sat down beside me

"So have you always felt this way about being.... a bully?" Grayson asked

I looked down sadly and nodded, "I was only friends with nate and Aaron because they were the ones that first befriended me and I felt like if i left them they would be so hurt, ya know? When they started getting physical with people like you I thought it was terrible, soon people started being afraid of me and it just made school terrible for me" I groaned laying down rubbing my eyes rethinking the shitty past I've created

Grayson slowly put his hand on my head and started to stroak my hair "I-it's ok, if you stop doing it then people will probably forgive you" Grayson said

I nodded, "I hope so" I said

For the rest of the night Grayson and I talked a lot, I got to know him really well and he's actually a great guy, he isn't even that big of a nerd

I could really like Grayson, more then I already do that is.
