Judai didn't realize sooner when he took the job of escorting the new students around the school, how many eyes would be on him two of them being his best friends. He saw them glancing at him as he mouthed 'Kill me now, I'll explain later.' The two boys exchanged a glance with each other to make sure they weren't hallucinating.
He felt daggers in his backside mostly from the popular students as they walked to the next class. Judai let out a shallow sigh as he stopped and turned to the transfers who each held their schedules wondering where the next class rooms were. Judai offered his hand to them. "Let me check you guys." The three boys wordlessly handed their schedules to Judai. He got a good look at their schedules.
'Kenzan Hassleberry Jim Cook and Johan Andersen.. so that's their full names.' Judai briefly observed their names their grades and where they were supposed to be next. Ironically the next three classes they had together, included gym as well.
"Lucky for you guys you got three more classes with me. The extracurricular seems to differ…" he noticed each one took a different subject. Johan had Drama, Jim had Art and Hassleberry had Band. This was good cause Syrus and Chazz could help him out showing them the rooms.
He passed them back their schedules and turns to walk when he hears one of them speak for the first time. "Where we going Sargent" Judai looks confused and a bit surprised as he heard the southern tone of one of the males. His eyes go to Hassleberry. "I'm sorry? 'Sargent?'"
"Well yea your our guide around the school. Your more familiar with the place. So your a Sargent!" Judai laughed off his embarrassment as he ruffled the back of his hair. "C-call me whatever you want."
"What's your name by the way, Mate?" The Australian accent came from the tallest between the three of them, being the male with the dark hair and brown hat.
"Yuki Judai… damn that habit.. I'm Judai Yuki.." He gave a friendly smile as he continued to lead them to the next class being History and one of his favorites. "You guys can just chill today. We're supposed to have a test."
He leads them inside and leaves them at the hands of the teacher who soon introduces them and then tells them where they could sit. Judai's seat being at the front of the class the fellas just sat behind him. This annoyed some of the students who came in late and had to move to the empty seats.
Judai sweated a bit not used to having really popular looking guys in his corner of attention. The teacher passes out the tests and miraculously but not surprising to his class except the new students Judai is finished almost as fast as the teacher handed it out.
"My my, Judai you surprise me every time." His teacher Miss Marisol commented as she took his test from him. Judai have a victorious smile and went back to his desk in quiet. The three males behind Judai looked at him surprised.
"Your that smart to finish a test before the teacher even sits down?" Hassleberry had to keep his hand under his jaw to keep it from falling on his desk. Judai in a bashful gesture rubbed his face with his index finger sweating at the attention. "W-well just History and Science…"
As the class started finishing their tests some of the classmates started trying to make conversation with the three new males interested in both their appearance and what they would be studing for extracurricular and after school stuff. Either the three of them weren't talkative, shy or uninterested because the only one who talked amongst them was Hassleberry.
Judai kept wondering why Johan hadn't spoken a word. He did notice his emerald eyes looking at him occasionally. He couldn't understand why or what the reason was.
The class flew by as English was the next subject this time Syrus and Chazz were in the same class with him. "Hey Yuki!" Chazz called out from the back of the room Syrus next to him in his seat. "Hey Bro. Come sit." Judai as routine by now left the three at the front of the class as the room filled and the teacher re-entered the room.
"There's no seating arrangement. Go ahead and sit boys." The teacher, Mr Winston barely looked up from his notes on his desk as before they sat he handed them the book they were reading in class which was Romeo and Juliet. The reactions between the three was hilarious. Jim looked intrigued, Hassleberry looked appalled while Johan looked embarrassed.
The three boys took the empty seats that were next to Judai and in front of Chazz and Syrus. Again nobody wanted to sit anywhere near them and it still surprised Judai that these three wanted to even be near him even tho he was just guiding them to their classes.
"How are you Mates today?" Jim looked behind him at Syrus and Chazz. Both males looked surprised to see someone acknowledged them that wasn't one or the other or even Judai. Judai shared the same look with his friends. He wasn't sure how to approach it either. They're whole lives have been outcasted or ignored or insulted. To hear friendly conversation was a surprise.
"W-we're fine.." Chazz slightly stutters not sure how to phrase his words without an insult attached, which when he talked to anyone besides Judai and Syrus automatically got an insult handed to them. Johan took the opportunity to speak for the first time, His accent catching the three off guard. "You three seem nervous. Is this a first time anyones talked to you fellas?"
Johan's question wasn't one that sounded insulting, nor a jab at their awkward behavior. He was being observant and from their jittery words and looks between each other registered high with him.
Syrus gave a half hearted smile his eyes down at his desk his pencil on his desk with his notebook open. Jim Johan and Hassleberry all pulled out notebooks and started writing down the stuff that the teacher put on the board. That they were to read from chapters 6 to 10 and do a summery.
"You could say…" Syrus trailed off but neither Chazz nor Judai offered to finish his sentence as the three opened their books to read. The subject was dropped but the three new students got a feeling that these three best friends had more going on than they wanted to discuss nor bring up.
It was lunch time and the three boys got their lunches and head outside. As they walked Judai heard the jocks calling out. "Hey Yuuuki sweetheart!" He cringed a bit hearing one of the jocks make fun of his last name. Chazz and Syrus looked towards the picnic bench where the jocks were laughing at Judai's expression.
"What do you want Bruce?" Judai rebutted to the blonde haired brown eyed jock who was slowly approaching them. Inside the cafeteria Jim Hassleberry and Johan watched from the window as they were going to follow the three outside but saw the jock flag the group down.
"I don't like this…" Hassleberry muttered under his breath which the two close to him heard clearly. Jim tilted his hat over his head covering the glare that he wanted to show but remained stoic, while Johan's fists were clenched at his sides.
The blonde jock got to Judai and flicked him on the arm. "So I heard you were hanging around the new students. Thinking your cool because people who don't know how big losers you three are, hanging out with you?"
"Leave us alone Bruce." Chazz stood in front of Judai but the three hadn't noticed two other guys get behind Syrus and Judai and grabbed them by their bags lifting them in the air, causing the three to drop their lunch. "Sy! Ju!" Chazz turned to see his friends being restrained by the two jocks having the two pinned to their broad chests. Both were nearly a half a foot taller than Judai himself.
"Chazz watch out!" Judai cried too late as Bruce caught Chazz by surprise with his lunch tray slamming it into the back of Chazz's head causing him to drop to his knees dazed. Judai manages to catch the one holding him between the knees with the back of his shoe causing him to let go and drop to the ground as Judai ran to cover Chazz as Bruce was about to swing the lunch tray down on him again.
"Stop it! Don't hurt them!" Syrus cried out unshed tears in his eyes as he watched the brunette get hit in the back with the tray as he had covered Chazz with his body to protect him. Judai knew that was gonna be a bruise. His face was then met with Bruce's foot as he kicked him off of his best friend, Judai rolling along the snow covered grass a couple feet away from the bullies and his friends.
Judai held his face in his hand feeling blood going down his face as his vision was dazed. "S-sy! C-Chazz.." his vision attempted to clear as he blinked the pain away tears leaking from the pain as he saw Chazz being lifted into the air by Tony, the one Chazz got in the crotch moments ago.
"You gonna hit me you damn bastard!?" Chazz went bold and spit in the jock's face making him cry out in disgust and drop Chazz on his ass as the black haired male rolled away from Bruce who swing his lunch tray again. Curtis the one holding Syrus with one arm grabs a fist ful of Chazz's hair and knocks the black haired male to his knees with one kick.
"Ahh!" Chazz groans trying to grab Curtis's arm to remove his fingers from his locks but the burgundy colored haired male wouldn't budge. Judai struggled to his feet seeing Chazz about to get punched out by Bruce.
"Chazz!! Someone! Somebody, help!" Tony was behind him grabbing Judai's hair and dragged him back to Bruce.
"Heeeeelp!" Syrus cried out trying to bite Curtis to make him let go but Curtis in his frustration nearly crushes Syrus's ribs making the shorter boy cry out in pain. Bruce approach Judai still swinging the lunch tray like a blunt instrument.
"Gonna beg me for mercy, Yuki? Or you gonna scream?" His face was full of pleasure seeing the three outcast boys in pain.
Judai could barely see Bruce because his eyes swam in tears from the pain his nose and face felt. Bruce's foot must've broke his nose. He flinched heavily feeling Bruce grab Judai's face making him cry out in pain.
"Enough!! Leave Bro alone Bruce!!" Syrus screamed which made Curtis squeeze the shorter boy tighter around his chest and ribs. He chokes out in pain. Chazz and Judai glare at Curtis with venom in their eyes.
Their angry gazes didn't last long as Tony slammed his fist in both boy's face catching them both by surprise. Both of their heads rang from the impact of the jocks fist against their heads.
Before Tony or Bruce could go in for another hit, the Cafeteria doors were slammed open. This catches the three jock's by surprise as Johan Jim and Hassleberry waltz out of the open doors and look over at the scene before them about 10 feet away.
"Drop those boys. Or your gonna get hurt." Hassleberry threatens. Jim Johan and Hassleberry each held a dark intimidating expression on their face. Watching from the cafeteria they witnessed everything.
They witnessed the extend of the abuse the three outcast males had to endure and the fact that even tho the courtyard was scarce and only 10 feet from the cafeteria, nobody from inside the cafeteria noticed the three crying out in pain, which the new students themselves heard with clarity.
"Well if it isn't the transfers. You three know if you continue this, you'll be just like them! Outcasted! Losers! Labeled by everyone to insult trash and subject to what these three get." Bruce scoffed. He figured nobody would want to be on the same level that Chazz Judai and Syrus were on.
The three males didn't back down as they made their way over to the three jocks. "We're not gonna say it again." Johan's emerald eyes were like poison his gaze on the three men had them rattled with surprise.
Out of fear Tony and Curtis dropped Judai Chazz and Syrus, the three collapsing to the ground, Syrus gasping in pain from his chest and Judai and Chazz groaning from the punch they each received to the face with Judai's nose still bleeding.
"S-screw this Bruce!" Tony tried to run but Hassleberry was faster and caught the male wrestling him to the ground. Jim approached Curtis who trembling at the equal height male who slammed his elbow into the male's gut dropping him to his knees before slamming his knee into his jaw as Curtis fell to the ground groaning.
Johan got in Bruce's face his glare more intense. "Don't mess with the weak.. because someone will always protect those that need it and deserve it." He grabbed Bruce by the back of his face and slammed his head into his knee which he connected with his face breaking his nose in response to how he broke Judai's then toss him backwards on his ass.
"You come near them! Look at them! Or even say anything ugly about them, I'll hear it then I'm coming to break your legs." Bruce flinched at Johan who grabbed his head to make the blonde look at him in the eyes.
"I-I won't go near them ever again I swear!!" He broke out of Johan's grasp and fled his two jock friends chasing after him screaming and yelling about the Transfers being freaks. Judai groan struggling to lift his head from the ground as he fell back on his ass looking at Chazz and Syrus next to him.
"Chazz?? Sy! Are you okay??" He shook them, both recovering slowly as they gave their brunette friend pained expressions. Syrus pointed to Judai's face. "H-he… broke your nose.." Judai in an attempt to stop the bleeding pinched his nostrils shut.
"Hang on there, mate." Jim jogs back over with Hassleberry and Johan the three in question helping the boys to their feet and supported them so they could catch their breaths.
"He hit you in the face really good…" Johan grumbled pointing Judai's face up a little to see how badly busted his nose was. Jim check out Chazz who just had a large bruise forming on his temple from the punch and some blood on the back of his head from the lunch tray. Syrus just had a massive bruising on his chest from where Curtis squeezed him, tho it made breathing a little difficult.
Hassleberry grabbed Syrus and lifted him on his back by his back. "Let's get you fellas checked out by the nurse. She might need to call an ambulance."
Judai looked panicked for a moment. "No! No ambulance!" His eyes looked freaked as a memory flashed in front of his eyes as he fell into Johan passing out on them, Johan catching him by surprise.
"Judai?!" They cried out in dismay.
