Flash Fiction #130 – Blue Boy

They found Blue Boy. No matter where he hid, they always did, eventually.

​

They beat him deeper hues of blue and walked away.

But he got to his feet and said:

“I’m beyond bullies, always will be.”

​

Every day they beat him, and every day he stood and said, “I’m beyond bullies, always will be.”

​

Until one day they were so fucking tired of him and his words that they beat him dead.

​

They thought they’d won, but Blue Boy whispered into their ears the rest of their lives.

​

He was beyond bullies, always would be.
