No Bullying Allowed

Jamal and Hector were buddies. They had known each other and been best friends since they were eight years old. When they got to high school they took the same classes, but when it came to athletics, they both excelled in different sports. Jamal was the goalie on the soccer team, and Hector was the star quarterback for the football team. Besides that, they were both members of the high honors club and the STEAM team.

Their senior year in high school was moving quickly. The boys loved their school and supported all the activities and events. This was just one of the reasons Jamal and Hector were so well liked by their peers and teachers.

Jaxson was a quiet young man who was a student in the same high school as Jamal and Hector. He too was in the high honors club and part of the STEAM team. He usually went unnoticed by others because he was so shy and introverted. Jaxson rarely interacted with the other students except to answer and apply his academic prowess. And Jaxson never ate in the cafeteria; he usually sat outside at a picnic table by himself with a book.

One day during lunch, Jamal and Hector, along with a small group of friends, decided to play Frisbee out on the field. They walked out of the cafeteria laughing and joking. One of the boys in the group stopped by the table where Jaxson was sitting reading his book.

“Hey Jax, we would ask you to play, but you can’t chew gum and walk at the same time,” the boy said laughingly to Jaxson.

“Yeah,” another student said, “can you see Jaxson of all people playing Frisbee? Nope, that will never happen.”

Jaxson sat there restlessly ignoring the comments. It was not the first time he had heard such things. He was not going to let them know that their snide remarks were hurtful.

Jamal and Hector heard what was being said behind them and stopped in their tracks. The boys looked at each other and were furious about what they had just heard coming from the mouths of people they thought were their friends. Jamal decided that he and Hector had to do something to support Jaxson.

Jamal spoke first. “Hey Jax, how about coming out to the field and watching us play Frisbee?”

Jaxson looked up from his book with a slight smile on his face. He had never been asked to do anything with Jamal and Hector or anyone else for that matter.

“Wait, not only should you watch us play, you should play on our team. Jamal and I can teach you! What do you say Jax?” Hector said enthusiastically.

Jaxson stood up, put his book in his backpack and started walking.
