A/N: This chapter will have some flashbacks/time jumps (ones where it switches back and forth between present and the past) Also, it might be a little triggering, so yeah viewer discretion is advised.

++++

You were helping Kyle back to your place. Luckily it wasn't that far away from where the scuffle between Delirious, Luke, You and Kyle happened. 

"This was that stupid gang, wasn't it?" He mumbled as he sat on your porch steps, after you set him there.

"Yeah..." You mumbled and rushed inside to grab a first aid kit, a rag and an ice pack. 

"Why does this Pumpkin Patch Gang want to do so much harm to you?" Kyle asked as he took the rag and something else for him.

"Well, the Banana Bus Squad want to hurt me, just to do it... I guess..." You mumbled, not making eye contact with him.

Kyle just sighed and looked up at the sky as he held the rag on his nose. You motioned for him to take it off and he did. You looked at the dried blood and the bruising on his nose.

"Now, I'm not a doctor, but I don't think they broke it, just bruised it completely to hell." You said.

"It hurts like hell." Kyle hissed a bit.

You knew he didn't mean it and you frowned at how bad you felt for this. You felt like this was all your fault because of how the gang has treated you. 

"I'm sorry that I have you wrapped up into this whole fucking mess Kyle... If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gotten beat up..." You said as you helped him, frowning a good bit. 

Kyle looked at you, "I wouldn't be too sure about that... I used to have my fair share of bullies..." He shrugged and looked at the rag in his hands.

You frowned and sat down next to him, just looking at him.

"I want to ask, what did they mean by 'boy-toy'? and why are they bullying you like this..." He asked.

You closed your eyes and took a deep breath, "Let's get inside so I can tell you..." 

***

You and Kyle sat down on a couch, he turned to you to listen to you explain what happened.

"Okay, so imagine this from the beginning..." You began to say.

{Flashback - Elementary School}

KINDERGARTEN

You stood there, looking around the bustling classroom. You were so nervous as you had never been to school before. You hoped that you could make a friend or two.

"Class, this is Y/N..." The teacher said in a cheerful tone.

"Hi Y/N!" The class greeted.

You smiled slightly but also hid behind the teacher because you were quite shy.

"Y/N, you will be sitting with Jonathan!" The teacher smiled as she looked at you.

Jonathan waved his hand and smiled. You walked over to where this new boy was sitting and sat down beside him. Taking your seat, he wasted no time and began talking to you right away.

"H... Hi Y/N! Do you want to be friends!?!?!" Jonathan asked, hoping that you'd say yes.

"Y... Yes!" You replied and giggled, causing Jonathan to laugh a bit with you.

That day at recess, you played with Jonathan and his toy truck. The two of you were quite fond of each other, even hanging out during the summer when school was over. Nothing could separate the two of you. Well, school did because you and Jonathan ended up having different classes.

***

FIRST GRADE

You frowned a lot during your first day because you wanted Jonathan to be in your class. He did the same. However, your day would get a little better because of a new student. 

"Class, we have a new student..." The first grade teacher said.

You looked up to see the teacher standing up front with a little boy. He had black hair, a red hoodie with an owl shirt on underneath.

"Go sit next to Y/N, Evan..." You heard the teacher say.

The little boy came over and sat next to you. You frown turned into a small smile.

"Hi, do you want to be friends Evan?" You asked, remembering how you felt the same way the year prior, and how Jonathan made you feel comfortable. 

During recess that day, you introduced Evan to Jonathan and all three of you played together. 

***

{Present Time}

Kyle sat there, listening to you explain everything that happened between Kindergarten and First Grade.

"So, you started out as friends, between those two?" He asked.

You nodded and looked at him.

"So, what went wrong?" Kyle asked.

"Well, it was the summer before fourth grade..." You began to explain.

***

{Flashback - Elementary School}

You were nervous about this year because you and your dad were moving, which meant you had to move schools as well. You didn't want to, in fact you even begged your dad to let you stay and live with your aunt and uncle, but he didn't allow it. Now, you had to tell your friends that you were moving. After arriving at Evan's house, you waited for the others to get there.

"Guys, I have something to tell you..." You said, once everyone was there.

The guys could all tell you were feeling down.

"What's wrong Y/N? Do you feel sick?" Evan asked.

You shook your head and began wiping a tear away that was forming in your eye, "I... I'm moving at the end of the summer..." After saying that, you looked down and quickly looked back up, which was a mistake because your friends looked like they were about to cry.

"You can't!" Jonathan yelled.

"Yeah! You just can't leave!" Evan frowned.

Tears were flowing from your eyes as you hugged your friends in a big group hug. 

***

{Present Time}

"There's got to be more to this..." Kyle said.

You nodded and sighed, "Middle School..." You began again.

***

{Flashback - Middle School (8th Grade)}

You were so excited to be back in the town you grew up in. You thought maybe you'd finally get to reconnect with Evan, Jonathan and the others, but little did you know that they had changed, and not for the better.

As you walked into the school, you were greeted by an awfully familiar Irish voice.

"Y/N!" 

You turned around and saw Brian standing there, smiling. You rushed over to hug him and he hugged back. As you two let go, you saw some glances toward you. Those from Evan, Jon, Lui, Marcel and Luke. They all then went back to talking to each other, as if they didn't even see you standing there with Brian.

"So, is everyone else ignoring me?" You whispered to Brian.

Brian shrugged, "I don't think that's it. I think they're just grumpy because the summer's over."

You had hoped because you wanted to reconnect with your friends from elementary school. Little did you know that wouldn't happen as you wanted it to.

***

During second period of your 8th grade year, you went to the hallway to your locker for something. You ended up finding two people in there with you. Evan's (then current) girlfriend Sydney, and Lui's (then current) girlfriend Mae. 

"Look at this little whore here." Mae snickered as she pointed at you.

"What? Are you looking in a mirror?" You hissed toward them.

"Oh, someone doesn't know who the hell they're talking about." Sydney hissed back and shoulder checked you into the locker, while leaving with Mae and laughing about it.

***

{Present Time}

Kyle just sat there, completely dumbfounded again. 

"You're telling me that they bully you all because you moved away and then came back? Something that entirely was out of your control?" He said, just being completely shocked.

You shrugged, "Yeah, I guess they are bullying me, because of that." 

Kyle frowned, "I'm so sorry Y/N... You honestly don't deserve to be put through such bullshit. It's just not fair." 

You shrugged again and forced a chuckle out, "It's okay. Life isn't always fair." 

The next thing you knew, you felt Kyle gently wrap arms around you and pull you into a hug. You didn't even object, you returned the hug to him and it felt nice. It was calming to you, to have a friend that actually cared about you. 

***

After a few moments, you two finally let go and began walking out the door because it was getting late and Kyle needed to get home.

"Are you sure you'll be okay walking alone?" You asked.

Kyle nodded and smiled, he was about to say something until he heard a bark coming from across the street. After the bark, you and him heard footsteps of something running. 

"Aww!" You said, pointing at the running dog that was coming towards you.

You had never seen this, black and white spotted, dalmatian type dog before. Apparently though, Kyle had because you heard him gasp. Turning to him, you looked at him as he stooped down to pet the dog.

"Kino?!?! What are you... Oh fuck..." He mumbled as he looked up from where the dog was sitting and you followed his gaze to see a familiar face standing there.

....

A/N: Well frick man, that happened. This chapter combined elements between the original 4-8 chapters of this book, maybe even the 9th? I can't really remember everything tbh XD Either way, I hope you've enjoyed this chapter, and I wonder who this 'familiar face' is XD.
