Save Me
Heys guys, after a week of not writing anything, I'm finally back and writing again. This is a high school AU, and this will also be a whole series. Also, it would be good if you listened to the Linkin Park songs that are in here. Anyways, R&R and enjoy!
(I do not own any Youtubers, Linkin Park, or any other real life references. Sadly)
Chpt. 1: Another Regular Day in Hell
"Out of the way, loser!" A teen yelled as he was bumped into by another kid. The other kid shied away from him and kept walking. He always hated that. Everyone would be so mean to him for no reason. They would bump him, hit him, etc, but he hated when they hurt him emotionally. The boy just kept walking, but was pushed to the floor by someone yet again. He looked up and saw the most popular kid in school, Evan Fong. He was the most popular for being the top player in the hockey group, having the most beautiful girl date him, and other things. The thing that had got him the most popularity was his YouTube channel, Vanossgaming. It already had about 3 million subscribers, and still counting.
"Hey Jonathan, how ya doin'?" Evan asked sarcastically as Jonathan had a look of fear plastered all over his face. He knew what was going to happen, it had always been happening ever since seventh grade. He was quickly pulled by the arm and was flung onto the wall. The instant the boy came in contact with the wall, he cried out in pain. Evan got Jonathan's hand and pulled it to his back, making Jon cry out even more. "Let's see what you got on you." Evan snarled as he searched all of the other boy's pockets. Evan was only able to retrieve a pen, a crumpled five dollar bill, and some earphones. He took the five dollars and let go of Jonathan.
"Let's see if you can make it through lunch without eating." Evan scoffed as he left Jonathan in in pain. The other boy was sad about his lunch money, but was thankful that Evan hadn't taken his earphones, and hadn't found his Ipod. He took his Ipod from his secret jacket pocket and plugged his earphones in. Jon had many songs on the Ipod, but had Linkin Park songs the most, since he was relatable to their music. He quickly put on 'In Pieces' by them, and walked to his first period class.
"There's truth in your lies
Doubt in your faith
All I've got's what you didn't take"
"So I, I won't be the one
Be the one to leave this
In Pieces"
"And you
You will be alone
Alone with all your secrets
And regrets"
He mumbled the lyrics and tried not to cry, but failed as he started to cry and sat down on floor, leaning on the wall. He hated being like this. He hated that his dad was a drunk, his mom had left him, and hated everything that had happened to him. He envied Evan, who had the perfect life, with actual best friends.
"Come on, let's go have fun while you can"
Jonathan quickly wiped his eyes and got up from the floor. He was already ten minutes late to class, but he didn't care. It's not like anyone cared about him anyways. He still headed to class though.
As Jonathan entered his first period class, all eyes turned to him. "Look who decided to come in?" At first, Jon thought it was another kid who said that, but quickly realized that it was his teacher who said that. He didn't care and just walked over to his seat and plopped himself on the seat. His teacher headed over towards him, and already knew why.
"So, you think you can just come into my class late and not get a in trouble?" His teacher chuckled lightly. "I expect you here for detention after school. If you don't arrive, I'll have to arrange a parent conference to discuss you're problems here." His teacher warned as he walked back to his desk. Jonathan didn't care what would happen. His dad would just beat the shit out of him after the conference for being a waste of human flesh. He didn't care about anything anymore. He would only have to suffer for 6 weeks, before he only had to suffer at home all of summer break.
As he walked away from his last period, ready to go home, he was faced with Evan again, but this time, Evan had his gang of friends with him. "Hey Jonathan, I came back with some friends. Do you know them? So, this is Dave, Craig, Marcel, and Luke. I think the only guy you know is Luke" Evan was right, he knew who Luke was because he used to be his best friend.
"Luke, you wanna get something to eat?" Jonathan asked, but he got no response from his best friend. "Jonathan, I can't be friends with you anymore. Evan said that he'll accept me into his group if I stop being your friend." Luke said as he saw the hurt on Jonathan's face. He hated seeing his friend in more pain then he saw already in, with his parents and all. "Sorry, but this is goodbye. No hard feelings?" Luke asked as he didn't expect what happened. His jaw was filled with pain as he realized that Jonathan had punched him. "You know what? Whatever, I'm glad I'm leaving you're sorry ass! I glad I don't have a friend who cuts his wrist! I don't need your friendship, I have Evan's!" Luke shouted as he saw Jonathan start to cry. Luke immediately felt bad and tried to comfort him, but was pushed away. "FUCK YOU! GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME, YOU ASSHOLE!" Jonathan shouted at the top of his lungs. He quickly ran away, leaving Luke on the sidewalk. Luke felt bad, but Jonathan was overreacting. "Pshh, whatever! Don't need him." Luke said as he walked away, heading towards Evan's house.
"I know you know him, since he was your friend. Hence, I said 'was'." Evan said as he pushed Jon to the floor. Jonathan couldn't take the anger and sadness anymore and snapped. "I know he was my friend, but left me for an asshole who gives two fucks about people!" Jon shouted as he let the anger flow through him. Evan was taken aback by Jonathan's outburst, but just smirked. "I think we should teach good ole' Jonathan a lesson." Evan said, cracking his knuckles. The group of five closed in on Jon, as the other boy curled into a ball to protect himself.
Evan was the first to send a blow to the boy's body. A kick to his back made Jon cry in pain. Normally, Luke would have stood up for Jonathan, but he liked the cries of pain that emitted from his old friend. He was the next to hit and did it with pleasure. A punch to the head made another cry of pain escape from Jonathan. After everyone had a chance to hurt Jon, Evan picked up the boy's head and saw the pain in his face. "Never do that again, and this will happen less often." Evan snarled as he dropped Jonathan's head to the floor.
Jonathan felt extreme pain, but tried his best to suck it up. He was already late and knew that his dad would be pissed with that. "Let's listen to music, so I can withstand another painful day." Jonathan told himself as he put his earphones in. He put on 'From The Inside' by Linkin Park.
"Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
'Cause I swear for the last time
I won't trust myself with you."
Jonathan felt like crying, but he had to get home. He quickly walked home, hoping his dad wasn't in the mood to do anything.
"Jonathan! Get over here!" He heard his name the instant he opened the door. He had it coming, he always did.
The beating wasn't as painful, as much as the words he said.
"You're a piece of trash that I have to take care of. You're worthless. No one cares about you. You can't depend on anyone."
The words that his dad had said while hitting him were just as painful as the punches. "Another day. Another hell." Jonathan sighed as he cried to himself, sleep finally taking over.
Yeah, I know I made this so sad for Delirious, but I wanted him to be hurt by everything first, before the romance kicks in on the later chapters. It will come eventually.
Also, I'm sorry about all the Linkin Park songs, but they fit so well with this type of genre. Anyways, review, PM, favorite and follow, and stay slimsy and slimy my friends. - Slimsy
