I removed another death wish post from Logan's locker and threw it in the bin. 'Those assholes.' I cursed as Sharon wiped the sharpie marks away from the locker. No matter how much we kept throwing their hate notes away, they kept pasting new ones unto his locker.

"Thanks Sharon." I appreciated as she finished up.

"No problem, it's the least I can do for him. He did save me with his life after all." She stood up and flashed a grin before yawning. "I'm so tired."

"You're always tired." Jordan materialized from behind her and gave her a back hug. I gagged playfully when they kissed and threw my bag pack over my shoulder.

"Come on love birds, let's get to class."

"It's not even eight yet." Sharon moaned as she dragged her feet behind Jordan, who was pulling her to class by her hand.

"Hi guys!" Crystal greeted as she jogged over to us. I said a good morning in response and Sharon moaned her morning wishes. Once again, the day involved ignoring hate filled glares and baseless whispers. Why are people so jobless?

By the end of the first four periods, Logan's locker was once again filled with hate messages. "I wonder how long they would keep this up." Crystal mused as she removed a yellow sticky pad from the locker. Sharon suddenly disappeared from behind us as we went to the cafeteria for lunch.

"Hey where's Sharon?" Jordan asked as he sat on the table. We all shook our heads to say we don't know and resumed eating. As we ate, the public address systems screeched to life and Sharon's voice came through the speakers. "What is she doing?" Jordan asked and we shrugged once more and listened to her announcement.

"Mic test, 1 2...ah ah...better. Good day students of BVA, this is Sharon Collins from sophomore year class two speaking.

I am about to tell us a story of a really cool dude, whose handsomeness struck many hearts.

He had a smile that could blind the sun, he was always happy but deep down were secrets to scorn.

No one could know, no one could tell, but surrounding his heart were so many scars.

When his secret came out in the open, the one he tried so much to hide, when it was revealed it put everybody on the run.

His weakness was exposed, his vulnerable side was out in the open. His scars reopened to reveal the wounds buried deep.

That fake smile, albeit bright, was wiped off his face. Everyone from him kept him kept their space.

His only anchor, the one whom he called his lover, was taken away by death's cold grip.

He was accused a murderer, he was left by his comrades. He was swallowed by darkness and his blood it did drip.

Amidst the sorrow, he rises every morn. Taking all the pain, good luck he wishes to all.

A helpless damsel, his life he gave to save. His friend's honour, his body he willingly gave.

Let us sing an ode to him, the courageous one. Let us applaud him for his act of bravery was not small.
Logan is his name and I speaking am the damsel he saved."

There was a small pause for effect and I looked around to see that some girls were close to tears and some boys were deep in thought. Others didn't care about what said, either that or they didn't listen.

"I...I am not really innocent because up till the moment he took a stab close to his heart for me, I prejudiced him. I saw him as someone to avoid but I was wrong, we all are wrong. I don't care what anyone would say about this but I am Logan, son of Maru's friend and I know that he can't hurt anyone even if his life depended on it . Haters be haters but I would remain loyal. Thank you for listening."

She finished. Jordan was grinning like an idiot as he climbed upon his chair.

"I SECOND WHAT SHE SAID!" He yelled, being the supportive boyfriend he was. Don also stood up and made his own proclamation.

"I AM LOGAN'S FRIEND TOO!" He yelled.

"I DON'T KNOW HIM BUT HE SOUNDS PRETTY COOL!" Crystal yelled too.

"LOGAN IS A MEMBER OF OUR GANG!" Bryan also stood to his feet and screamed his proclamation.

"GET WELL SOON, WE LOVE YOU!" April and Phyllis yelled at the same time. Scarlet snorted and stood up. Everyone grew silent as they waited for the usually quiet girl to scream but just got disappointed for she only raised her hand up in the universal peace sign and nodded.

"SCAR SAYS LOGAN IS AWESOME!" Doug yelled out and Scarlet's head snapped towards him so fast that I thought I heard her neck crack. The soccer captain only shrugged at her stone face and sipped on his banana juice.

"LOGAN IS MY BROTHER!" I yelled finally. I was happy, so happy that friends like this existed. My friends are the coolest in the world.

"SENIOR LOGAN IS HOT!" Bara shouted from where she sat. Do I need to tell you that she still thinks Scarlet and I are gay couples despite the announcement that Scarlet gave at the competition?

Sharon came down and the girls except Scarlet ran to hug her. "That was so cool! When did you compose that poem?" Phyllis asked slash praised.

"Oh it was a spur of the moment thing. Just said some things and they rhymed." She boasted.

"Well guys, we have something more to do." Phyllis sat on the table and brought out a yellow post it from her bee designed bag and a pen. She scribbled a note on it and smiled triumphantly at the bee she drew at the end of the note. "There! I'm sticking it on Logan's locker." She announced and everyone got the memo.

"I'm jealous of that Logan now. I wish I had friends like he does." Crystal murmured as she watched all of us writing notes to stick unto Logan's locker. Sharon heard what she said and placed a hand on Crystal's shoulder.

"Well you are in luck 'cause you are our friend!" She gave a closed eye smile and resumed writing. Crystal squealed in delight before pulling out a lavender post it pad from her bag...why did everybody bring their bags to the cafeteria?... And wrote her own note as well. Later that day when I went to visit at the hospital, I had good news to tell.

-

Time raced by pretty fast and three and a half months had gone by and Logan didn't improve or grow worse. He was in the middle of life and death, in a long, cold sleep. We were on the long break and almost everybody had plans for the vacation except me.

Crystal was spending the time with her grandparents at Beastartica. Scarlet was staying with her cousin and her four month old baby niece. It came as a surprise when she told me tat her cousin had named the little girl Bara and I laughed my ass off when she shuddered at her most loyal fan girl's name. Don was spending time with his family and Bryan was busy preparing for his concert with Vermilion. He surprisingly didn't talk our ears off for being the only one to have met a dance god.

The others were off on a vacation trip but here I am stuck playing video games alone. Pandora had grown and was taken away from me by the animal control, I definitely did not cry throughout the night that day. I was on my way back from visiting Sama at the orphanage when I got a phone call. I stuck my ear pods into my ears and picked the call.

"Kishi..." Mom's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hi mum. What's up with your voice?" She was silent save for some sniffles that indicated that she was crying. Why would she be...unless... I swerved to the side of the road pulled up.  Don't tell me... I felt dizzy...

"Ayo... Logan is..."

My head fell back on the head rest as my hands shivered as a result of the news. My chest tightened and my breaths became short and raspy. I can't believe it. When I got a grip of myself, I stepped on the gas and I drove to the hospital while swearing at and giving threats to my friend.

'Logan, I would kill you!'
