The bell rang countless times after until lunch was apon us.

I grabbed my lunch from my bag and followed Ty to find the others.
After a few minutes of looking we had found Ty's friends but Seto and my group wasn't here yet.
"Hello sparkly pants!"

I turn to be greeted by Tom, Sonja, and tucker.
"Hey Tonja! And of course Tom!"
Tom smirked and pulled me in for. Quick kiss.

"Oh get a room you two."
We all laughed, even our new friends.
That's when seto appeared.

"Hello, sorry I'm late. Needed to finish hole punching some papers for my teacher." He didn't smile one bit. He was looking at the floor and shuffling uncomfortably. His book bag was loose over his shoulder carrying his books as he tugged at the navy blue cuffs of his school uniform.

"You okay Seto?"
I asked. He seemed so much happier a few hours ago.

"Uh, yea."

"Wait, but I saw you leave the classroom when the bell ended. You ran off down the stairs near the other end of the school."
We all looked at James who looked attempt confused.

" I, uh. I was retrieving the papers from uh, the staff room." He sputtered anxiously.

"The staff rooms on the third floor though?" We shot a glance at Sonja who had spoken up. We were just making seto feel uncomfortable.

"There probably more than one staff room, guys. Like at our old school. He's was just helping the teachers get some stuff done."
Everyone looked at me, seto giving me a look of thanks. Brice tearing his gaze from me to look at his supposed boyfriend as Ty had told me during second period.

"Uh, seto. May I speak with you and Jordan for a minute? Ty can come as well."
That's when seto looked terrified again. Brice started walking away, followed by Ty and an anxious seto. I followed a second later.

Once we were out of earshot of everyone Brice pulled us aside into an empty classroom.
"Show me seto."

I didn't know what Brice could have been talking about but it scared seto obviously.
" but! Captain and Tyler-!"
"I brought them here to show. Ty's your best friend and Jordan's becoming a close second.
Seto looked completely unsure for a moment before breathing heavily and putting his arm into Brices hands, allowing him to roll up steps sleeve showing Ty and I the horror of what's happened.

Cuts and bruises lines his pale skin. He started tearing up. The first time he'd ever shown this much emotion.
He whimpered slightly as Brice guided his fingers over each one.
"You were in the bathroom, not hole punching. Weren't you?"

Seto nodded at Ty's question.
" I'm guessing rule 4 is in place today seto? I didn't see a lunch with you."

Seto didn't answer right away. Whatever these rules were he didn't seem to like them. After a while he replied
"And rule 8."

Brice's eyes widened before he pulled his boyfriend into a gentle hug. Ty and I still shocked from the beginning.
"How long seto?"
The brunette looked to Ty.

"How long have you been depressed?"
Seto took longer to answer as his tears welled up.

"Since Adrienne Harvey died."
