I wrote a little passage to go with that previous post:

Sullivan's POV:

I was looking for my best friend when I heard jeering coming from around the corner. My eyes widened. Alder was being picked on by Rodney and his gang. Then, they said something offensive and I lost it. "HEY!" I shouted running up and stopping in between Rodney and Alder. Rodney paused for a brief second as if registering my sudden appearance. Me? Well, I was furious. It surprised me. I'd never been that angry. Alder was my friend and I'd stand up for him anytime. Something about me felt... weird.

After registering me for a minute, Rodney said snidely, "Oh hey, it's Nonsense. Come to save your boyfriend?" The gang members giggled behind Rodney's back. I felt my face heat up.

"He's NOT my boyfriend," I fired back. "You know very well I'm straight and don't you think you've caused my friend enough harm?" Rodney merely sniggered. My rage exploded. "Screw off, Rodney!" I shouted. Rodney's eyes flew open, as did his friends'. I could feel Alder's eyes looking at me. Rodney and the posse then ran off like a wounded animal.

"S-Sully?" Alder stammered. I turned to him and helped him off the ground, feeling the warm fuzziness again as he touched my hand.

"Yes?" I asked softly, gaze matching my tone.

"I-I didn't know you had that in you..." Alder said, staring at me. My eyes darkened slightly.

"I...didn't either... let's just go." My face eventually started to cool off, until Alder said,

"Thank you." My face burned again and I looked away.

"N-no problem."
