When Zeke dropped down onto the wooden bench beside him, Casey sighed inwardly. All he wanted was some alone time; he needed to think about what had happened this morning.
It had started with the usual teasing of the jocks. He was used to that and ignored it. One wrong word, only a quick look, and he would end with his head at the locker door or even worse. The jocks were the kings at school, who got away with almost everything. Casey was two heads smaller then they were and skinny; maybe they would even have overlooked this fact if he wouldn't also be a geek who loved photography and art much more than football.
Since Casey could remember he was the favorite victim of the jocks and even if his father often told him, that a boy should be able to stand up for himself and tried to send him to self-defense-courses, he preferred to avoid every conflict with them.
Up to this morning.
„So, the lap cat finally turned into a lion,“ Zeke said and grinned wide.
Casey threw a dark glance at him.
„Shut up.“
„Oh, c'mon, don't tell me, that you are not proud of yourself. You have every right to be; the black eye you gave Gabe this morning was the topic number one at lunch break.“
„Great.“
„It was long overdue.“
Zeke shrugged.
„Even the smallest cat knows to fight when she feels cornered. No one can blame you that you finally turned into a lion and roared.
Even coach Willis seems to be impressed. I've heard that he called you a surprisingly though boy.“
„Good God.“
Casey rolled his eyes.
„I'm dead; next time Gabe meets me, he will kill me.“
Zeke smirked.
„Need someone to protect you?“
„What?“
„I don't think that it will be necessary because I'm sure Gabe will stay out of your way from now on. But when you feel better with a bodyguard around, currently I don't have anything better to do.“
„What the hell are you talking about? You never were interested in me before.“
„Maybe I've always known that you are much stronger than you think and I've only waited for the moment, that you finally stand up for yourself.“
Zeke laughed slightly at Casey's stunned face and got up.
„C'mon, Superman, I'm gonna give you ride home.“
