Bullworth Academy was in a mode of extreme satisfaction. It had just been announced that Jimmy Hopkins had been expelled. Everybody was thrilled that the little bastard was finally gone. It was only a shame that he couldn't actually leave yet....
Peanut, on the other hand, was far from happy. He couldn't have cared less about Jimmy being expelled from school. People were starting to think he was crazy because he wasn't excited over the news. The only thing on Peanut's mind was what happened last night.
I can't believe I snapped at him like that....And I definitely can't believe that I not only came out of the closet, but I told him how I felt about him...Although, I must admit, it feels great to have finally gotten that off of my chest. But now I have to worry about the next time I see him....will he be angry? Will he be happy? How will he react? The way he looked at me....oh my god. I don't think I can face him ever again...
It seemed absolutely impossible to concentrate in Shop class. Also, the fact that Johnny didn't show up in class scared him more. He didn't know if whether Johnny had gotten himself hurt as of the result of last night or not. Peanut silently cursed at the thought.
Before he knew it, class was over and he, Lefty, and Norton headed for the door. At the most unexpected time ever, Earnest came scurrying over toward the group. "Hey, fellas! Can I ask you guys something?". Norton glared at the nerd and replied with, "Is it "Can you kick my ass?"?".
Earnest nervously chuckled. "Uh..um..no. I'm sure you heard that Jimmy Hopkins has been expelled, correct?". The three nodded. "Well, Gary Smith is holding this huge party celebrating the occasion in the school building after hours. You see, the teachers and prefects are going the town hall to discuss the whole "Redecorating Town Hall" scandal with the mayor of Bullworth. So we're able to get away with this huge bash in the main school building. Do you fellas seem interested in coming?".
Norton sighed as Lefty and Peanut agreed to go. "Great! I'll go inform the rest of the students now! See ya later, dudes!". The rather frail nerd ran off in a very manner that reminded Peanut of a sissy girl running away from bees. Peanut didn't want to go at first, but once he thought about it, he decided that the only way to forget about the deal last night is to get incredibly fucked up at a party after hours.
Hmmm...a party. Since nobody in Bullworth can be trusted to have a nice party without any drugs, I'm going to attend....anything to ease the pain of hurting Johnny Vincent....
"Uh, I think I'll pass. See you guys later, I'm going to see how Jimmy's doing". Norton slumped away from his friends. Lefty watched as Norton left. "Wow, I think Norton may be learning to like the kid a bit, huh?".
Peanut nodded. Eventually, Lefty decided that he had to go to the bathroom and he left Peanut standing alone. Since he had plenty of time until the party and he couldn't find Johnny anywhere, Peanut decided to walk around the school a couple of times. The thoughts began to cloud his brain again.
Where the fuck is Johnny? I haven't seen him all day....if I would've known that my confession would've effected him this much, I wouldn't have even told him......
After about the third time of walking around campus, Peanut checked his watch. It was only 5:00 P.M. The party would be starting in three hours. So, to consume the next three hours, Peanut decided to travel around New Coventry in hopes of finding Johnny Vincent.
After riding around almost the entire Coventry twice, Peanut began to get worried. But then, he remembered that he did forget to check a place Johnny could've possibly been. Peanut rode his bike to the Tenements. He hopped off of his bike.
He then walked over to the window that led to the inside of the building. To show Johnny respect if he was in fact home, instead of just going in, Peanut knocked on the window a few times. No answer. Things weren't looking good at all.
Johnny....where the fuck are you....? I'm sorry for last night...just come back....I need you..
Peanut checked his watch again. It was now 7:54 P.M. Peanut, realizing that he was in danger of being late to the only event around that could calm him down from having a panic attack, hopped aboard his bike and rode back to the school. He managed to make it back one minute before.
Just after entering the main school building, Peanut was greeted by Gary Smith. "Ah, hello. Welcome to Bullworth Academy's "Good-Bye Jimmy Hopkins, Never Wanna See You Again" After Hours Bash. Please, feel free to try out our "refreshments" in the cafeteria". Peanut, puzzled by what he meant by "refreshments" asked," What kind of refreshments do you have here?". Gary laughed and answered with, "Oh, just the usual: punch, soda, water, vodka, LSD, marijuana, cocaine, painkillers, and....what else...OH! And ecstasy".
Gary walked away laughing at the top of his lungs. Peanut couldn't even begin to wonder how that freakjob managed to get all of those illegal substances in the school, but as long as they were there and his mind was racing because of stress, he was going to consume as much of the illegal substances as he could. Peanut made his way to the cafeteria while scooting past large amounts of students dancing. Along the way, he finally noticed that the music playing was very catchy.
"Hangin' round, downtown by myself and I've had too much caffeine and I was thinkin' bout myself and there she was..."
Once he made it into the cafeteria, he had noticed that all the bullies had gone for the pot. With only one batch left, Peanut snatched it as fact as he could. "Hey man...you can't..can't, that..er..is mine...maan". The words seemed to have come from a very stoned Trent Northwick.
Peanut found a shitload of writing paper on the same table, along with a lighter. Now, he had never done marijuana before, but he had an idea on how to do it. Once he had it set up like a cigarette, he ignited the end with the lighter. Since Peanut had never done smoked weed before, it didn't take him long to feel the effects after only the first bit.
"Can you figure out what I want? Pull the trigger with a pop gun..."
Peanut was completely high now. He watched and giggled as he noticed that Lucky, Lefty, and Ricky had stolen his bag of unused marijuana. He then looked forward and saw Jimmy Hopkins staggering around the room, cursing at random people. "You..little-r FUCKERS!...This is MY party, you should..cry if you want..".
Peanut started laughing at him, probably because of the fact that he was high and the fact that Jimmy was obviously drunk. Before he knew it, two girls were dancing around in the middle of the school. They were semi naked. Also, a new song had turned out to be playing.
"If you feel so empty...so used up...so let down.."
Peanut's euphoria came to an end upon seeing the two harlots dancing. He got to his feet and found a cooler. Once he opened the cooler, he noticed several bottles of vodka. He took one and opened the the cap.
He chugged the into bottle right as he opened it. The shit tasted awful, but it had a powerful affect. When the bottle was 100% empty, he staggered into the lobby and lobbed the empty bottle at the semi naked girls. "That's fucking NASTY! Stop doing that!!".
Like the weed, the vodka had an instant effect on Peanut. Suddenly he was dizzy, sick, and euphoric again. Then, he noticed a sight that made he even more euphoric. He spotted Jimmy and Norton humping each other vigorously.
"I am, I am, I am, I said I wanna get next to you..I said I'm gonna get close to you..."
Peanut, in a drunken frenzy, started cheering very loudly at the two. "WoOT! You two are so fucking sexy! You deserve an aw-reward....". Peanut felt very sick and let the feeling out all over the floor. His laugher calmed his stomach down.
12:35 A.M
The party was insane. Every single student there was either stoned or completely wasted. Peanut's euphoria was down again, but this time to a new extreme. So extreme that his sobs echoed the entire cafeteria.
Vance, who was totally high, held Peanut while he cried. "Yo man...you're..urp!...gonna be..gonna...beeee...goona..gonna be okay..". Peanut's sobs didn't stop there. "Why doesn't he love me??! I love him so fucking much..but..he doesn't love..me..".
Peanut made Vance let go of him and, still in a drunken rage, stalked the nerds down. "You! Why did you have to fuck Lola and make Johnny hate me?". Melvin was the first to speak. "Peanut, I think we'd remember a sexual experience that didn't involve us circling up and dropping snot all over each other's shoes!".
Peanut staggered away back to the Cafeteria. Still utterly depressed, Peanut decided to take a shot at the cocaine...just anything that could try to kill him. He lined the product up perfectly and snorted.....only to fall over to the ground. Everything blacked out...hoping that he would be pronouced dead soon.
Johnny....where are you..?
----------------------------------------------------------------
Well, that was Peanut's POV! Now....onto to Johnny. Just as a warning though for the next part...there's some -ehm- very detailed "events" in it. *smirks*
