《13 Reasons Why [L.S.]》Tape Four
Advertisement
"So, ended on quite a sad note there huh? Well, what did you expect. These are the reasons I killed myself after all."
I hear Louis trying to chuckle as if making a joke, but I clearly notice the sad undertone of the laugh. It's probably killing him twice as much to sit and explain this as it is for me to listen to it.
"But, back to the point, this tape is dedicated to my old soccer team - more directly the team captain, Nick Grimshaw."
No surprise there really. Nick is the person who've been in the lead the times I've been bullied. He doesn't do the dirty work, he just stands a few feet behind, directing every person to hurt the designated victim. It's a very smart trick, really. If the bullies are caught beating up someone, Nick can slowly tiptoe away without being noticed, and so it doesn't look like he did anything. And people wouldn't ever dare to out him to the teachers, because then they would get the next turn.
"As I mentioned I was a part of the high school soccer team. Until some unfortunate, very uncomfortable things happened, and those I will explain now. It's quite a long story and includes several people so the soccer team has been assigned three tapes in total."
Oh, they really must have done some screwed things to him to deserve three tapes.
"The day after Zayn had made a visit to my house, I went to school after having skipped school a couple of days of pure embarrassment and fright. But since my mom had practically forced me out of bed telling me I couldn't miss anymore school, I had to. So, I went to school that day expecting the worst. And that's certainly what I got."

I really have to try to stop letting my imagination take control over my brain before I hear the full story, because what I imagine are some terrible things. But, what happened to him might as well be too.
"I went into the locker room before soccer practice hoping to just be ignored, but instead everyone stopped in their tracks and started glaring at me. Obviously they had planned out what would happen and what they would do when this time came, because they all moved around the room to a certain spot resulting in them surrounding me. They stood in an unbreakable circle around me, Nick standing inside of it as well, looking disgustingly at me. I'm sure you remember what you said next Nick, don't you? You told me that you guys didn't want a disgusting, sickening, repulsive, criminal guy that didn't deserve the right to live on your team. Then you went on a rant about how gross I was and how nasty of a human being I was. I tried explaining for what seemed like the 50th time that week that I didn't actually do what Taylor had told the whole school, but like everyone else you didn't even bother to actually hear what I had to say.
Then you started saying that you had noticed me always looking at guys' private parts - though you used another word for those - around the locker room. You called me pervert and disturbed and said something was wrong in my head because I found boys attractive.
At that point I was crying. I hadn't ever once even thought about any of the guys on my team that way. I'm not gross like that, plus, I know when not to get a crush on guys. Seems like everybody just assumes that because I would rather be in a relationship with a boy than a girl, I find every male on this planet highly attractive. Let me break it to you now that I don't.

I had my eye on someone else, I have had that for a long time. I could never ever do what you accused me of Nick."
The 'had my eye on someone else' was embarrassingly enough the thing that caught my attention the most. Of course Nick is a dickhead and doesn't at all deserve the life he has, but Louis had a crush on someone. That someone being a guy. That at least increases my chances, right?
"But that didn't matter to you did it? You went on for what seemed like hours about every little thing you thought was wrong with me. It bruised my self-confidence with hard rocks, but I stood through it all. Not without letting a few tears slip here and there, but that didn't matter. I could see a couple of the guys around me, the ones I used to be closest to, starting to feel bad, but did they do anything at all to help me in any way? No. Because the didn't have the damn guts to stand up to the alpha. Which just confirmed for me how scared and how much of a pussy each and everyone of you are.
But I had took it, and so far it had only been words. You had only verbally hurt me. I thought I could deal with that, but then. Then you became violent.
Stay tuned for part 2 of this sick, terrible story......or whatever."
And that ended tape four. I couldn't help but agree with everything Louis said. Because he was right. He said the damn truth. The one nobody had ever before dared to speak aloud. That just confirms how brave of a boy he is, and makes me nothing but adore him even more. If that's even possible.

8 97Falling Through the Cracks
After falling through a rather unexpected crack in the universe that spawned under his bed, Alex finds himself in a world filled with monsters and magic. Now instead of worrying about SATs and college applications, he only has demons, magic and rips though the very fabric of the universe to occupy his mind. Quite a bit easier in his opinion. This story has abuse, trama and brushes breifly on suicide. I`ll try to include warnings on chapters that deal heavily in any of those. I’m also a very new writer, so please let me know of any mistakes you see! Updates Mondays and Thursdays Image credit: Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech/S.

8 83Bedrock 巖盤 Ganban
Not everyone is born equal. In a world where everyone is born with an ability, some people get the short end of the stick. Kazuki is one of these people. He is one of the few people born with an F class ability, an ability so weak he is powerless against any foe. So weak that he holds the title of bedrock, a title that literally means “at the bottom.” But sometime very soon he will discover his true abilities and become the strongest adventurer in the land. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New version at https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/27723/bedrock-ganban This is the official version again. We decided to edit the chapters and change them instead of making an entirely new account. ~November 30: All of the chapters have been updated and improved. It took a few months, but the story is better than ever! As of today, new chapters with be posted every weekend.~ ~January 20: First off, Happy New Years! I hope you all can make use of this year even more than that last. I know we will.... Secondly, one of our writers has finals so the next couple (and previous) chapters may come out a day or two late and shorter than usual. We'll pick up pace after this week!~ ~April 20: Happy 4/20/2020, since we're starting to write longer chapters, it'll probably take longer for us to post some chapters. The output for chapters should be amped up after AP exams are over. ~October 20: Edited previous chapters some and re-wrote chapter 17 as it was terrible and didn't deserved to be released. Almost done with 18. -Posted 18
