School went on as usual for a few days, until that idiot Tom cornered me in the bathroom. I went there to do my business, and I have no idea if he stalked me or something, but he legit just left one of the stalls the moment he heard the water running. It was like a horror film.

He grabbed me by the hands tightly. "A-ah, s-stop, y-you're hurting me!" I winced.

"Listen here, you little faggot," Tom said. "I don't know what you've done to Billy, but he won't even look at me. It's like he's disgusted by me. The other day, I approached him, and he just looked at me like he saw shit or something. I don't know how you managed to brainwash him into hating us... into hating me, but you're gonna fix that. You understand? I'll kill you if you don't."

"Brainwash me?" Billy barged into the restroom. "You're kidding, right?"

The moment Tom saw Billy, he let go of my hands. "H-hey Billy, we w-were just playing~"

Billy approached us and grabbed Tom by his collar, pushing him to the wall. "You think I don't know what you did? Huh? You thought I wouldn't figure it out?"

"B-Billy, I don't know what you're talking about~"

"I know you lied to Emma that I cheated on her! Why did you do that?" asked Billy.

"W-what, I d-don't know what you're talking about~"

"Just fucking tell me the fucking truth! Were you jealous? Heh, and you still didn't manage to get into her pants."

As much as I'd enjoy this if it were a movie, this was reality. I had to separate them, and fast.

"B-Billy, calm down," I tried to remove his hands from Tom, but to no avail.

He turned his head in a swift move and looked at me with fury that made shivers run down my spine. "You stay out of this!"

I know that he was angry, and even if that fury wasn't directed towards me, I still get really scared seeing Billy like this. It's like there's this fire in his eyes that is coming straight out of his soul.

"B-Billy, please, j-just let it go," I pleaded like a little puppy.

"NO! I NEED AN ANSWER!" he yelled at me. I'm sure if somebody had heard us from the outside, they must have called a teacher by now. I hope they didn't, as that would only make the situation worse. When he snapped at me, it brought back all the memories of him hurting me. My chest tightened, and my eyes watered.

Billy noticed that and instantly calmed down. Regret and guilt washed over his face. There was now sadness in his eyes. He knew he shouldn't have done that.

He let go of Tom's shirt and just said to me, "Let's go," trying to sound tough in front of Tom, I suppose. I thought he had changed, but there's still so much anger inside of him.
