I'm Dead - Matthew

This is for the best, right?

I don't want to be a burden to her. She clearly hates me.

"Yo bro! Get up! I'm starving!"

Peter, my teammate, was in front of me. We had practice after class.

"I'm not hungry. Go on without me."

"Come on. There are so many girls who likes you. You are our star player, man. You can get any girl you want."

"Whatever, man. You know I'm not like that."

What the hell is this guy's problem?

David walked to us

"Hey, Peter. Shut up."

"I'm just saying, man. She was nothing like those other girls. Why do you even like that girl?" He snorted.

I'm clenching my fists. I want to punch him so bad.

"Chloe is just a girl. Get those girls like, the one who wants to fuck with you." He laughed "What's her name again? Jessica? Compare to Chloe? Chole is nothing."

"Hey fucking shut up, Peter." David yelled at him.

That's it.

Everything went black.

I have no control over my body. My fists.

I felt David's hands over my shoulders trying to pull me. I could see our other teammates pulling me. And trying to block my punches at Peter's face. I was all over Peter's body. I

"Bro, stop! STOP! He's had enough!" I heard David yelled.

"DON'T FUCKING TALK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN!"

He couldn't talk. I looked at my fists. They were full of blood. His blood.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE???"

Principal Thorns was at the gym door with Coach Keegan.

I'm dead. I am so fucking dead.
