Kyle's alarm on his phone beeps loudly and he sits up in a fright, staring around the room he remembers that Brax really did kick him out. He really was all on his own, he was all alone like always he was left alone in this world, in his world. Why was
he so surprised everyone left him at one stage or another.
"God I love my life." Kyle grumbles and chucks his blankets off him and sits up. He looks at the time on his watch. 7:20. He had 40 minutes till the start of his shift and he wanted to wake up first. Standing up he walks over to his keys and
sighs with frustration when he realises that he doesn't have the restaurant keys, he would have to go back to the house and get them. He was going to try and avoid Casey. He didn't want trouble but he was sure that Casey would make some.
He quickly gets changed and tidies up his bed hair, quickly putting a small amount of gel in it so that he can style it the way he likes.
He sighs lightly and asks out of the Caravan and locks it. He starts walking to the Braxton house when he sees two brothers playing with a football, sighing lightly he lowers his head. How he wished that he had his brothers growing up. Maybe then
they would like him more but then again he wasn't really the type of kid that his brothers would have spent time with, he was quiet, had only 1 friend and was a nerd. Who wants to have a brother like that.
Flashback
Fourteenyear old Kyle Bennett sat in class. They were learning about Algebra and he was the only one in the who class that actually knew what he was doing.
"Okay class, 2a plus 14a plus 3b = what?" Mrs Smith the maths teacher asks.
"Why are there letters!" Lucas Neeson yells, even though he wasn't one of Kyle's bullies he was still a major jerk.
"Cause it's algebra, letters belong in algebra." Kyle sighs, Lucas honestly drive him nuts, they had been doing algebra for the past week and he had been asking that question every day.
Lucas death stares him, he was sitting right next to him and when the teacher wasn't looking punched him in the ribs. "Watch your mouth nerd, or I'll tell Vince to make your beating bad today." Lucas laughs lightly. Kyle grabs his ribs in slight agony. He straightens up and ignores the pain so that the teacher doesn't realise.
"Class, who knows the answer to the equation?" Mrs Smith asks again practically begging her class.
Kyle raises his hand slowly, of course he knew the answer, he found it easy because he found everything easy.
"Anyone else⦠Kyle has answered them all so far." Mrs Smith sighs. No one else raises their hands so she gives Kyle a friendly nod.
"16a + 3b." Kyle sighs. He knew there would be a backlash for this but he was used to it.
"Neeeeerd." Voices chant so many that the teacher cannot tell who was who.
Kyle slumps his shoulders, he glared back at the only kid who was nice to him who just shrugs lightly. He was a bit of a loner and was known as the class emo.
"Class, you should all take a leaf out of Kyle's book and actually pay attention to all the things I am teaching you." Mrs Smith sighs and looks around the class and stares at all the kids.
Kyle puts his head in his hands, why? Why did she have to say that! Now there was no way that he was going to make it through the day without his head going down a toilet or getting a wedgie.
Suddenly the bell rings and Kyle jumps out of his seat and rushes out of the class, however so does Lucas who catches up with him and grabs him by the back of his shirt and shoves him against a locker.
"You're a little nerdy nerd aren't you. You're pathetic! Seriously can you even get a question wrong aye! Little robot! KyQ with the high IQ." Lucas laughs and shoves him into the bathroom.
"Just leave me alone!" Kyle begs and shoves Lucas and sends him slightly backwards.
"Wow, was not expecting that, not from a wee thing like you." Lucas laughs as he grabs Kyle around the waist and carries him to the toilet stall.
"Noooooo." Kyle howls and struggles against Lucas but has no luck and screams as Lucas shoves his head down the toilet and flushes.
After 2 minutes it stops, Kyle coughs and splutters everywhere. He knew this wouldn't be the last one that he had today, he hadn't even run into his actual bullies yet.
"See ya in English. Oh and if you are a nerd in that you'll get a wedgie." Lucas laughs and ruffles Kyle's hair. "You might want to dry that." He laughs wickedly and walks away.
Kyle slumps his shoulders, he was a smart kid and his teachers knew that so he would be expected to answer questions right.
He was bullied constantly and it wasn't going to stop until the day he left high school. It wasn't fair.
End of flashback
It doesn't take him long to get to his house and he breaths a sigh of relief when the door in unlocked. He pokes his head in the door and sees that Bianca and Ricky are sitting at the table. He fully opens the door and smiles at his sister in laws.
"Hey girls." He smiles lightly. He was happy that it was them that he saw and not Casey.
"Ky! Oh my god! Are you okay? Did you sleep okay? Have enough to eat? Are you hurt?" Bianca panics and rushes up to Kyle checking his temperature with her hand and fussing over him.
"Bee, I'm fine.. I forgot the restaurants keys." he sighs and smiles kindly. "Thanks though.. so did you miss me last night." Kyle smiles and grabs the keys off the shelves.
"We were worried, Brax had no right to kick you out." Ricky sighs as she gets up and rubs Kyle's back.
"I don't really want to talk about it. I'd better get going anyway. Got to open at and all." Kyle sighs and starts walking towards the door when he hears a voice that he really wanted to avoid.
"Thought Brax kicked you out, the point was for you to not come back." Casey hisses and grabs Kyle's shoulder and makes him face him.
"I was getting keys, for work so that I can pay for my caravan something that spoilt little brats like you wouldn't be able to understand." Kyle hisses only to get a hard punch in the face. He grabs his cheek as it starts to bleed up charges
at Casey and tackles him to the ground.
"Braxs baby bro, you don't know what it's like to be rejected." Kyle yells right in Casey's face.
"Boys!" Bianca and Ricky both yell and manage to pull Kyle off Casey. They knew that he wouldn't fight against them, he wouldn't hurt them either.
"Yea that's right Kylie. Tata. Let Bianca and Ricky kiss it better." Casey laughs.
"Oh and Kyle. I may not know what it's like to be rejected but at least I know that it's like to be loved. Unlike you. No one loves you they only pity you." Casey laughs. The girls feel Kyle's body fall in theirs and he turns his body
and walks out of the house holding out his tears until he guy far enough away. But as soon as he got out of the house he let them fall.
How could his brother make him feel this way like he wasn't even worth life. It hurt and Kyle had had that feeling growing up. The pain never truly goes away.
Flashback
Fourteen year of Kyle was arriving at school it had been a week since his mothers death and it wasn't going to be easy. Kids were going to look at him as the kid that people hardly knew existed had lost his mum and wound up in a foster home. His foster parents were nice enough but it was different he know had to live with a bunch of new kids. A huge majority of them older than him and even some that Kyle was sure were going to be psychopaths. One kid put a pillow on his face and then sat on it. Kyle felt like he nearly died. Worst thing though was that none of them were willing to admit that they were his foster family. They chucked him out of the car, literally chucked him a few blocks before school so that they weren't seen with him. He had never felt so unwanted and he grew up with only an alcoholic mother who always told him he was a waste of space.
He arrived at school and was immediately bombarded by stupid Vince and his stupid friends.
"Hey KyQ or shall I say Orphan KyQ. How's the new house. Any different or are your new parents vodka scullers like mummy." Vince laughs.
Kyle was sick of it, these kids always picked on him and he had had enough.
"Shut up Vincent ." Kyle glares making the Vincent loud enough for all to hear.
Vince glares at him and grabs him by his shirt. "What did you say you little punk." Vince hisses pulling Kyle close and basically spitting in his face.
Kyle couldn't even stop his tongue until it was too late. " Vincent, V-I-N-C-E-N-T!" Kyle hisses then quickly shuts his mouth and looks at his shoes. Man was he dead.
"Get him!" Vince glares. Kyle looks up quickly, this was his first day back at school since his mum died and he was going to get beaten up, he had no more time to think before Lewis crashes him down to the ground.
"You're so dead nerd." Corey laughs as he kicks Kyle in the ribs. The beating continues and all the boys join in while the girls just laugh and video it, tomorrow it will be although the school and not one single student would tell a teacher. He's only hope was Tyson but he knew that he wouldn't he would be too scared and Kyle understood that.
Dan and Felix two of his foster brothers see it happen but walk away and a tear falls from Kyle's eye, he had seen them watching and he saw them walking away. Did he mean anything to anyone.
End of flashback
Kyle opens up the restaurant and sighs. Why was his life like this. Was it even worth living. Sure there was Tamara but she could find another guy. Bigger. Braver. Not a nerd. She could have anyone but he was just slowing her down. Was his life really
as important as others. Deep down as much as he wants to hide it. Kyle knew that it wasn't. His life wouldn't been a horrifically sad death, in fact he could count the number of people that would be sad by it on one hand. Bianca, Ricky, Heath, Tamara
and Brax, well maybe Brax. But still only five people. His life wasn't that important right? Well that's at least what he thought.
