After leaving the bathroom to go look for Larry I ran into someone. "Oh sorry I wasn't looking where I wa-" I stumbled back, he punched my in the side of my prosthetic. "Watch where you're going freak!" I looked up and met eyes with some random kid. "Like I said, I wasn't looking where I was goin- HEY!" He grabbed me by my throat and proceeded to squeeze his hands on my neck. "C-Can't...breathe....stop.." He laughed at me, "or what freak?" I tried fighting my way out but it was no use, he was much stronger than me. I felt my body go limp and everything went all blurry before I got dropped to the floor. "WHAT THE HELL?" I looked up to see an angry Travis towering over the kid, who is now on the floor begging for mercy.
"Not so tough when someone puts you in your place are you?" Travis asked, venom lacing his teeth. The kid stuttered before running away, I couldn't really do much, I was too tired, I felt like I could pass out any second. Travis rushed down to my side, "Hey, Sally are you okay?" I couldn't respond. "Sally please!" I managed to bring my head up to look at him. "I'm..fine.." He scoffed "The hell you are, okay do you want to go to the nurse or to your friends?" I shrugged "That's not helpful Sally." I leaned into him "friends" I could tell he looked nervous. he helped me up and wrapped my arm around his neck to help support me. His left hand was around my waist and his right was holding onto my arm.
He brought me into the lunch room and walked over to where my friends sat. They all looked at us with a mix of worry and anger. "Sal!" Ashley yelled, she was about to get me from Travis before she paused. "What the hell did you do to him?!" Travis looked off to the side. "It wasn't me you asshole. It was Brian, kid from the football team. I asked Sal where he wanted to go and he said to you guys." I nodded. "Well don't just stand there! You're his friends, take him, take care of him I don't fuckin know" Travis gently handed me off to Ashley before storming off. They all turned to me at once.
"Sal! Dude what happened?" Larry asked holding onto my shoulders. "Some asshole tried to choke me out in the hall, Travis stepped in and brought me here." I shrugged before looking back at him. They all looked at me in disbelief, "did he drug you?" I laughed "No Larry" they all looked at each other before filling me in on what happened while I was gone.
*Time skip after school*
It was around 6pm when Larry, Ash, and me decided to go to the park to paint the scenery. We did this quite often to practice our art skills. I got a call from my dad all of a sudden, "Hold on guys dad is calling" I walked away to go sit on the swings. "Hello?" "Sal I need you to come home right now, there's a kid looking for you, he doesn't look too well. He's covered in blood." Before I knew it I was running back to the apartment, I don't even remember saying bye to Larry and Ash. I just remember running.
