Jack

I couldn’t wait to go to lunch with Alex. We were gonna go off campus to eat, instead of that noisy, annoying ass cafeteria. I wanted to take him to this good burger place I always go to. I thought it’d be fun.
I was waiting on my bike for him, and I had called him to tell him to hurry up.
Hearing his cute voice tell me to be patient brought a small smile to my lips.
“Alright, just hurry up-“ I stopped talking mid-sentence, when I heard a loud crashing sound.
I looked at my phone confused, seeing that he was requesting a facetime call.
I was still confused, but I hit ‘accept,’ seeing a nice view of the ceiling.
He must’ve hit facetime on accident and dropped his phone..
Or at least I thought it was that innocent of a situation, until I heard another loud crash, followed by Ronnie’s voice.
“Where’s Jack at now, huh?”
That was all I needed to hear, before I was running as fast as I could into the building; my legs moving faster than my mind could even process.
All I knew was, that jackass was hurting Alex, and I was gonna rip out his insides.
I ran up to the locker bay where I knew Alex was, and it was confirmed when I saw him curled up in a ball on the floor, trying to shield his stomach from getting kicked by Ronnie’s foot.
I was livid.
Before I even knew what I was doing, I was running over and tackling Ronnie, making his back slam into the lockers.
“Ah fuck!” He groaned in pain, and I grabbed his collar and pulled him forward so our faces were about an inch apart.
“I fucking warned you Ronnie. Now? I’m gonna kill you.” I quickly slammed him back against the locker, before throwing him onto the ground and punching him in the face repeatedly.
I couldn’t hear anything, and I couldn’t feel anything. My anger had taken over my body, and all I saw was red.
Now I was literally seeing red; blood was flying from Ronnie’s nose as he struggled against me, but I just didn’t fucking care.
That’s when I felt someone grab my shoulder. I was ready to turn around and swing on them too, but that’s when I heard Alex’s voice.
“Jack! Jack stop! Please stop, you’re scaring me! He’s had enough, please!!”
He was crying, and that was enough to break me out of my spell.
I stopped hitting Ronnie, looking down and seeing his face all bloodied and bruised.
My knuckles were bleeding, and now I could actually feel the sting.
I looked over to Alex, seeing his tear-filled eyes staring at me in fear.
I felt like a monster.
I shook my head, then quickly got up and ran out of the school.
