Sorry it took me so long to update! I'm such a procrastinator!!

Wow, I HATE people at my school. Well, not everyone. Just the stupid "popular" people. I want to kill every single one of them. I don't know how it happened, but somehow, everyone found out about Specs and Kid Blink. Whenever I was walking with one of them (which was a lot, since I'm in a lot of classes with them), you wouldn't believe all the snide comments and rude looks they gave them. It was insane. You'd think they'd never heard of gay people before. They pretty much quit when they saw the looks I was giving them, all except for one incident....
I was on my way to study hall, the last period of the day with Specs, when we passed this dumbass on the football team, Tom Wilkins. When he spotted us, he stopped us and said to me, "Hey, you better watch out for this one," he pointed to Specs. "He could jump you at any second."
Specs just rolled his eyes, but I said, "You better watch your mouth, asshole!"
"Race, please, calm down. Don't start anything!" Specs pleaded.
"Yeah, stop Higgins. //She// doesn't like violence."
"I'm warning you, Wilkins, one more comment like that, and I'll kick your ass." I was trying sooo hard not to hit him.
"What're you getting all worked up about, Higgins? Why should you care about some little faggot who can't fend for himself?"
That was it. I couldn't hold back. Specs, shocked, stood there while I dove on Tom and started hitting him like there was no tomorrow. God, it felt good. That is, until Tom got over the shock that I had just jumped on him, and started hitting back. Soon, a huge group had crowded around us, cheering (for Tom, of course. Everyone loves that son of a bitch) while we were still goin' at it, punches flying everywhere. Finally, a teacher came out into the hall to see what all the noise was, and came right in and pulled me off of Tom. There was blood everywhere.
"What's going on here?! What's the matter with you boys?!" It was my Global teacher, Mr. Pontmercy.
"Mr. Pontmercy, I was just walking down the hall, and he just started punching me! I had to defend myself." said Tom, innocently, with a steady stream of blood dripping out of his nose.
"BULLSHIT!" I shouted.
"Watch your mouth Higgins, you're already in enough trouble!" bellowed Mr. Pontmercy. "I'm taking both of you to the office, right now."
My principal is kind of scary, but thank god he's gay, so he understood why I hit first! (How can I tell? If you could see the way he dresses/talks, you'd understand.) Tom got 3 days more of detention than I did. I got two hours for tomorrow and the next day. Not too bad. After going to the nurse, since my lip was bleeding profusely, I went to the last 20 minutes of study hall, where I got bombarded with questions about what happened I must have told the story a million times. How obnoxious. But that's okay; everyone who wasn't friends with Tom was on my side. After school, when I met up with all the guys, I told all of them. And by that time, I had added a few little extra details to make me sound more heroic. Specs was looking at me weird through the whole thing. It was pretty funny.
But the best thing about it was when Jack and I were in the car, driving home, and he said, "Hey, Race, I'm really glad you stood up for Specs like that. I acted like a jerk yesterday, and now I realize that Blink and Specs are two of my best friends, and always will be. They haven't changed at all.
"Jesus, and I saw Wilkins after school, and he looked awful! He was a bloody mess. Nice work! Couldn't have done it better myself."
"Hah! Got a pen? I need to write this down! Mr. Tough guy, Jack, just told me that //he// couldn't have beaten up someone better than me!"
"Don't push it, Higgins, I'll take it right back!" he laughed.
Yeah, so, despite my //huge// lip and my enormous headache I've got now, it was an awesome day. I bet no one will mess with Specs, Kid Blink, or me tomorrow. Hah!

Hah, I wonder how long it'll take me to write the next chapter! Gah!
Read and review!!!
Sorry for making you wait, Dodger!! Lol.
