Your Favorite Martian was about to rehearse "The Stereotypes Song" in Benatar's house, doing the usual routine where they would take turns into rehearsing. This time, it was in Benatar's house. 

It was a Friday, which means the band went to school before they could jam out loud into the night. 

Benatar has taken the back seat beside Puff, Deejay and Axel, fighting back tears as he stayed with them. Puff was first to get out, then Deejay, then Axel, which left Benatar. 

"Hey dweeb," One of the jocks punched his shoulder before he could get down, and one kicked the back of his leg when he got out the door, making him fall into the cement. 

"Fuck," He swore under his breath and ran inside his house, going to the bathroom to see what happened. A scar on his lip and a bruised shoulder. Fan-fucking-tastic. 

5:47 pm. He was in the shower, sobbing. He had his legs close to his chest as he sat on the tub, but had the shower head on so it could still rinse him. He saw the blood going to the drain as he looked at the newly cut scars on his body. 

"Why do I even try?" Benatar asked himself, getting out of the shower/bath and getting his clothes and putting them on. It was a loose shirt with the band Metallica, which Axel introduced him to. He couldn't help but smile a little as he hugged his own shirt tight.

Axel. Deejay. Puff.

They were the only positive things in his negative life. 

5:56. He found himself getting his sleeping pills.

He remembered how they met. He met Deejay in Chemistry and Music. They were so fond of the same music, which brought them closer. Deejay was Benatar's first friend, who would actually see everything positive in the boy. 

Puff. Chemistry. He remembered being partners in one experiment since no one picked Benatar, and Puff was rejected by every girl he asked. So, he was stuck with Benatar. But, the two had an awfully fun time, especially the part where Puff fucked up and made an explosion. The two were sent to detention. 

Axel. The guy who fucked his life. The senior who was 3 years older than him. The guy who would actually wait for him in the class, so they can pick up the others. The guy who would go to his house since he was "bored". Where they would climb the roof and look at the night sky or the sun set. The guy who introduced him to his hair cut now. The guy who knew every small thing about Benatar. The guy who helped him get through his mother's passing. The guy who both mentally and physically saved him.

That one time where he stood up for him. Where the jocks scurried away while he walked with Benatar, not even wanting to make eye contact to him. Benatar was kept close with him, sheltering him. That one time where he went to his house, to talk to him. Since he found out about those assholes, he would ask everything. He would ask where they would hit him, what they would talk about him, everything. He knew about the scars on his wrists, and he stayed the whole night comforting him.

6:03. Benatar swallowed the pills. 

"Hey, dick face!" Puff laughed, but the joke ended when they saw Benatar drinking the 10 pills. They weren't enough, but Axel smacked the container of pills and quickly took him to the bathroom. 

Puff and Deejay were outside the door, not wanting to enter. They were scared. Not to see puke or anything. They were scared what Benatar was hiding from them. 

"Come on, Ben!" Axel shouted, tears flowing down as he made him puke out the pills. Nine came out, and the last one was still in him. The other started crying, telling the others to call 911.

They did so, and the ambulance came. The three were worried sick for the blond, and they followed the ambulance in Axel's car. 

Once they got there, they put him in the emergency room, but found nothing wrong with him. The nurses told them where Benatar was staying, and they ran to it, rather than waiting for the damn elevator, they ran up the stairs and into the room. 

Benatar was there, wearing a breathing tube. The doctor was at the edge of the bed, then smiled at the three.

"You three are lucky, the boy is just asleep." The doctor said, which made them breathe normally again. "But, it said he has swallowed ten, and we only found one."

"I made him puke it out." Axel told the doctor, who put his hand on the brunet's shoulder.

"You are a life saver for your friend." 

"I love him. It was, it just kicked me to do it."

The doctor showed a wider smile, petting the shoulder still. "How did you find him in this condition?"

"Oh, uh," Puff rose from his seat. "We were supposed to rehearse a song in his house, and we saw him just, drink the pills." 

"Oh? And what band are you from?"

"Your Favorite Martian."

"You mean this song is from you?" They heard the song "Mr. Burns" play. Which made Deejay jolt and look at Puff, then Axel. They were all smiling at each other and they ran out to tell everybody their song. 

Axel stayed, getting a chair and sitting beside Benatar. 

"Kids." The doctor sighed with a smile, still looking at Axel. "When will you release him?"

"Tomorrow morning." The doctor replied. "I hope I don't see you four again in the same problem."

"Don't worry, I won't let him." Axel held Benatar's hand, who slowly felt a small reaction to it. Benatar slightly had his hand encase the other's, which made him smile. 

"I love you, Benny." Axel said, kissing his forehead. 

And all he ever wanted to do,
Was spend a little time with you.
Hey, Mr. Burns.
Hey, Mr. Burns.
