Likely to be hit - for thenewnormal
It's been two weeks since Kyle was nearly caught with Manes under the bleachers. It had been one week and six days since he and Liz had broken up because he couldn't explain where the hickey came from, wouldn't tell her who did it, and basically let her tell him off for the better part of twenty minutes before she stormed off.
He'd ignored Manes, who did the same to him. Not even the insults and taunts. He kept waiting for Alex to out him, to tell everyone about it, but nothing. He deserved it. He deserved worse. Both for how he's treated Alex, and for leaving him there under the bleachers.
He should leave well enough alone and just go on with his life.
Or he could be an idiot, take the chance he'd next go to school with a busted lip and a black eye, and he heads for the Manes house one Saturday after noon two weeks later.
He sees Jesse through the front window, giving him a wave as he heads for the door. With a nod of his head, Jesse lets him know Alex is out back in the shed. Veering his course, he heads that way. Barely pausing to tap on the door before he pulls it open and sticks his head in the door.
"Hey, can we talk?"
