My Guardian
A/N: Ok so I now have a thing for pesterchum RP… Just ask EasilyConfusedHetalian. We have been Rp-ing for close to six hours. It's the first time I've ever RP-d and it's AWESOME! And you know the few people I have actually befriended just by writing this story makes me want to meet you all! We could RP together on pesterchum and share stories \(u)/ ! And I'm gonna skip ahead a couple of days since I don't want to bore you guys with the same routine they went through with all the past chapters. Well pardon my ramblings, and let's get on with the chapter!
Chapter 7
BEEP BEEP BEEP BE-
John hit the snooze button on his alarm and rolled over on his bed. He yawned and attempted to stretch. But the bruise on his abdomen prevented him from shaking away any sleepiness left in his muscles.
He slowly sat up, as to not cause any more pain. He sat there for a minute, still waking up.
He stood up and trudged to the bathroom. Picking up his hairbrush, John attempted to brush his mess of hair. It usually ended up like he had his hair drawn in an anime.
Brushing his teeth, he heard his dad in the kitchen making breakfast.
John walked back into his room, more awake now that he was up and moving. He tapped on Casey's cage, and the little salamander poked her head out from under her log.
Smiling, he went to his closet, picking out a light blue shirt and a navy hoodie, along with a pair of jeans. He shot Dave a quick text saying he was ready when he was.
Dave still didn't know about John's bullies and he intended it to stay that way. His other friends were already worried enough, and besides, Dave was to cool to be worried about things like bullies. Hell he probably frightened them off with his intimidation!
Changing quickly, John packed up his stuff and headed downstairs for food. He could hear and feel his stomach rumbling from hours of no food.
He set his bag at the bottom of the stairs and walked into the kitchen. Greeting his dad, John sat down on one of the stools at the island- table thing. He wasn't really sure what to call it.
His dad set a plate of pancakes and bacon in front of him and drank his coffee while John ate quickly and set the dirty plate in the sink, and grabbing his portable mug, taking a sip. Ahh summer berry tea tasted so good in the morning.
John heard honking outside, and grabbed his stuff and walked out the door.
He hoped in Dave's car and they were off to school.
"What's in the mug?" Dave asked, as he turned into the school parking lot.
"It's tea" John replied taking a sip.
Dave just nodded as he found a parking spot and quickly pulled in.
They got out of the car, grabbing their stuff and heading to the doors.
Out of the corner of his eye, John saw them. You all know who. They were sitting by their cars watching them as they walked past. He saw Vriska lean over and whisper something to Equius, who just continued to watch the two make their way to the front doors. Dave didn't seem to notice, from John's perspective.
But he did. He always knew when someone was watching him. And his shades gave him the ability to observe without anyone noticing.
The two made their way inside and John took Dave to his first class before heading to his own class room.
Dave took his seat. And guess who walked in? Vriska and Eridan!
Dave swore to himself. Great another class with these two he thought to himself There just gonna bug me to join their stupid group.
The two walked up to him, Vriska looked a bit peeved.
She sat in front of him and said, "So, I hear you have been hanging around that John kid."
Dave nodded his response. He didn't like where this was going.
"Well, you see Dave; you don't want to be hanging around a kid like him." She said, tapping the back of her chair.
"Yeah? And why is that," he asked, resting his arms on his desk, giving a sarcastic I'm-so-interested-about-your-opinion look.
She gave a light laugh. "Are you dense or something? A dork like him will only hurt your reputation as the new cool kid in school. Stick with him, and you'll be classified as a dork no one wants to friends with, just like him. Now if you hang with us…" She trailed off, shooting a flirtatious smile in Dave's direction.
He felt like throwing up. "Well you want to know something?" Dave stood up and leaned towards Vriska. "I want to be his friend. He is cool in my books and that's all that matters. And people like you disgust me, thinking that you can act all high and mighty just because a few people think your all that. Now I would prefer if you leave me alone from this point on."
Dave saw fire burn with anger in Vriska's eyes. He had a feeling turning her down would lead to trouble, but he could deal with it. He was a STRIDER after all.
She got up and stormed over to her desk, followed closely by Eridan.
Dave smirked to himself. Now THAT'S how you get things done, he thought to himself.
The bell rang signifying the end of class. John gathered his things but didn't feel like shoving them into his backpack, it would just create a mess anyways and he didn't feel like having to re-organize his backpack AGAIN.
He ducked into the crowd and made his way to Dave's class room. As he approached, Dave looked up.
But John wasn't looking at Dave. He froze when he saw Vriska and Eridan, both of them glaring and smirking at John. Dave snapped in his face and John realized he was staring.
He shook his head, and smiled at Dave. "Let's get to class," he said, "don't want to be late!"
They walked through the halls. The whole time, Dave wondering why John had froze like that, with a terrified look plastered on his face.
All he knew was that he didn't want to see John with that face again.
