Disclaimer: I do not own the Avengers movie-verse, nor do I make any claim to.

Characters:  Rhodey, Tony Stark, Howard, Jarvis.

Warnings: Contemplation of suicide, references to suicide, bullying, under-aged drinking, parental neglect, minor character death (off screen).

Rating: PG-13

Summary:  Jim Rhodes went out to get some studying done at the library.  He ended up with a best friend.
Thanks: Many thanks as always to narwhale_callin, even if I do give you sudden Jarvis feels.

Notes:  So you can thank EternalSheWolf for this one.  They said if I ever decided to write out the desk incident from Rhodey's POV, it'd probably be one of their favorite things.  At the time, I had no intention of writing it, but I eventually hit a point where I had nothing really gripping me to write it, and thought, hey, why not?  Because really, I'm a little Rhodey fangirl who couldn't resist.

Also please note that I'm a little white girl who started high school in the late 90s, while Rhodey is a black guy who went to college in the late 80s.  I have tried to be sensitive to this, but I'm not going to be perfect.  I'm just trying my best, because Rhodey's one of my favorite characters in MCU and there needs to be more fic of him out there.
