Chapter 3: Not Like This
3rd Person Pov:
The lunch bell rang and the students ran towards the cafeteria. They all got their food and sat down with their friends, it was a typical loud day. "I don't understand how I'm not used to this food. It's so good yet, I'm used to not eating at school. Life is confusing." George said as he picked at the macaroni and cheese in front of him. "You really need to eat, it is not a healthy habit for you to keep up." Melvin explained, he knew that his best friend would always skip lunch. In his opinion, that wasn't healthy. George shrugged and decided to just eat the apple on his tray and drink the milk as well. Melvin sighed at the sight but, he knew nothing could be done about it. "I heard you got one of the students. What's their name?" George asked with a hint of nervousness in his voice. He knew his best friend wouldn't reveal him a lot of stuff since he was so protective and worried for George's sensitive side. Melvin was about to speak until a carton of milk was poured on him.
"Oops, sorry nerd. Didn't see you there." Someone teased, George got up with napkins to clean up his friend. "Excuse me but, what was that for?" He asked, shyly. "The nerd deserves it for being so sassy to our leader." The male said with a smirk on his face. "What? Since when?" George asked as he looked up towards the bullies while, Melvin cleaned himself up. "Physics class. He described how he acted and how he looked. We were glad to beat someone up." The Bully responded and chuckled as George looked over to his best friend who just smiled nervously.
The bullies then, grabbed Melvin and George took off after him. They went straight towards the bathroom where they opened a stall. George knew what was going to happen and he didn't want his best friend to drown. The bullies put the toilet lid up and began to dunk Melvin's head into the water. "Stop it! Your gonna hurt him!" George exclaimed as he tried to pass through the bullies to which he was successful. He managed to grab the person that was dunking his best friend's head into the toilet.
"Harold?" George questioned when he noticed it was his old best friend who was doing all this. Harold stood there speechless, he never really planned for this best friend to see him. He saw how his old best friend was hurt and his eyes were tearing up. "I-I..." Harold tried to speak but, shook his head and pushed George out of the way. The bullies followed him and George helped his best friend up. "Are you okay, Melvin?" He asked as he helped his best friend get up. "I'm fine, don't worry about me. I'm just a little wet." Melvin replied, smiling to assure George he was okay. "Okay, let's just get you cleaned up." George said as he grabbed a bunch of paper towels and dried off his best friend. He couldn't keep his mind off of Harold actually neither of them could. After all...
What was he going to say to George?
