Luke Mikkelson is content. Sure, his older brother's in the Middle East and, in some weird twist of fate, he is now friends with Matt, who chucked Luke's backpack in the Mississippi when they were in the fourth grade, but life is all right. He has friends, the cutest girl on the basketball team is giving him eyes, and sophomore year is looking up.
But being friends with Matt is harder than it seemed at first. Mostly, it's the fact that Matt constantly bullies Brian Henderson, but he's hardly nice to friends, let alone anyone else. Is it all right to be friends with a bully?
