•LANAH •
I saw how he walked with his hood up and his hands in his pockets. His head always hung low and his eye colour unknown. I've been watching him since I came here to
Aston Creek High. He would either be glaring at the ground or in a book that seemed to go everywhere with him.
He would avoid the students and teachers
keeping to himself.
His name was Oliver McGovern,
He was a sight to see
if only he would
notice me.

Lanah James the nerdy girl who sits in the back of the class.
the girl who has no friends. walks around with earphones in her ears blasting Bon Jovi humming along, writing songs about everything I feel nobody even looks my way
  I am Unnoticed even to my family.

I suddenly jolt in my seat as the bell rings meaning it's the end of the day.
"So next week I expect to have you perform your song at the front of the whole class I won't accept any late assignments at all now leave." Mr Howard, I started packing up my stuff and was almost out the door when Mr Howard stopped me. Right before I could make it to my door.
Oh no not this again

"Lanah I hope the class gets to hear your work this time." He said looking at me with eyes full of hope.
I turned and look at the ground like it's the most interesting thing ever.
"Mr H I don't know I don't feel ready." My voice a whisper.
I heard him clear his throat.
"Ugh, Lanah it's okay but maybe you'll like being on stage...Yeah?" He said looking forward. If only it was that easy sir.
I nodded my head slowly still starring at the white tiled floor.
And turned around and slowly walked my way out of there. My sneakers maked a squeaky sound as I walk through the corridors of this old High School and just when I was about to reach my locker a hand gripped my shoulders and turned me around so fast it shocked the living daylight's out of me I look up so fast to look who the culprit is and to my astonishment, it was none other than Oliver McGovern and this is the first time I've noticed how tall he is with wide muscular shoulders that tower over my small frame he was still wearing his hoodie like always I let out a loud yelp.
"Aaah!"
"Hey"He stated simply. "Lala ... is it?" Uggg really?!!
"Lanah,its Lanah." I gritted through my teeth. He frowned.
"Riiight"he said dragging ot the I.
"May i help you?" I really dont want to be here right now dad is gonna kill me.
His face turned blunt."Yes" he said with no emotion at all.
"The principal your my tutor?" He asked.
Waits whatttt!!! Ooh yeah i remember now .
"Yes,when are you free so i can plan a schedule for the times,subject,test and what not?" I asked, lookat my watch. 3:43pm yup im dead

"Im only free on fridays and i dont care really. When where?"he asked almost demanding. Okay rude..
"Library!"i answered.
And with that he turned on his heals an walked away. Without saying goodbye. Really a rude kid.
"Snitz,dad!"I ran home as fast as i could.
4:13pm........
Oh no!
"laNaaaHhhh!!!!"my dad shouted.
"Where have you been? You are supposed to cook !"
My head was hanging low with same and fear.
"Look up!" Anger filled  his voice.
I shook my head no...

And thats when the first blow landed.
