"DAMN IT, JIMMY!"

Jimmy Hopkins winced at the loud shrill that came from the short brunet practically glued to his back. He was pedaling his racer bike as fast as he could, but with Petey's arms squeezing the life out of him, it was kind of hard.

He opened his mouth to yell back at Petey, but his words were thrown away from the wind blasting past their faces and the noise of police sirens very close behind them. Cursing, Jimmy clamped his mouth shut and continued pedaling.

Scared out of his mind, Petey buried his face onto the warm material of Jimmy's sweatshirt, chanting muffled nonsense in an attempt to try to stay calm. Stay calm. Think of a silver lining…

Well, he was with Jimmy, wasn't he?

Jimmy felt Petey's grip on his waist tighten even more.

Yeah, he was with Jimmy. And Petey decided that was enough of a silver lining for him.

(But he still thought that it had been completely unnecessary for Jimmy to pummel that perverted police officer. Even if the guy had been hitting on him.)

* Massive apologies for the incredibly late final chapter. I never got around to getting off my lazy butt to post this. BUT HERE IT IS AFTER ALMOST A YEAR!! Wow, what a long wait for a not-so-awesome chapter. Apologies again, but hey, here's a silver lining for you!

First five or so reviewers can request something! And I'll definitely get them done in less than the time it took me to post this chapter. Requests will have to be Bully-related, and I'll probably do drabbles, or drabblets. :)

Anyway. THANK YOU for all the reviews! I really do appreciate them. X)

SINK OR SWIM.
