It was only a short flight of stairs, but Ryan felt exhausted by the time he reached the doors to his school. He wiped his brow, and realized that he was already sweating, confirmed by the sweat stains on his shirt.
"Oh God, look at that guy!" he heard someone say. He turned to see two freshmen girls giggling, trying not to look like they were looking at him.
He entered the hallway, and headed for the fountain.
"Well, whose this?" said a familar voice.
Oh God no. He knew it was inevitable, but he hoped for just a little more time...
He turned to see Miles. Worst of all, Gretchen was right beside him.
Miles mouth spread into a shit-eating grin.
"Well, it's our friend Ryan!"
Gretchen's face seemed to be a mixture of pity and shock.
"Ryan, what happened... I mean, you, uh" she stammered.
"Yeah, he bulked up alright" said Miles.
"I, uh, have to go to class" said Ryan, wanting to run far away.
