The Beauty and The Ghost

Chapter One

POV Phil

Freaks. Monsters. That's what they call us. Some of them may be good, but if you meet one, soon enough you most likely will be dead. I don't like humans. If I ever meet a human I hopefully scare the hell out of them and never see them again. I know, some of our school mates (that vampire girl and her squad was it?) proved that there are nice human beings out there, but I still don't believe it and nothing would make me. Humans destroyed my whole family and some of them are still treating my cousin Casper too bad, though he's very famous (Casper the Friendly Ghost, ever heard?). We scare them, they scare us. Mutual hatred.

Anyways, my best friend Spectra (my only friend for that matter) is forced to be part of school exchange program between Monster High and "famous and fabulous" Ever After High. This school is full of douchebags, because they are all oh so rich and royal, every girl is eighter a princess or a member of famous and rich family, every boy is eighter a prince or a hero. No nerds, no losers. Plus, they are all humans there, exept of demigods and werewolfs. Don't ask me where I know it from, Spectra is literally godess of rumors, she knows everything. That's why we became friends: it's never boring with her. I'm so sorry that this amazig, kind ghost being has to go to that hell hole. But nope, the administrators needed exactly a ghost to be part of this. Poor girl.

Okay, I can practically see your thoughts about how deeply in love I am with Spectra Vondergeist. So let me ruin your expectations: I don't like her in that way. I don't like girls at all. If you ever visit Monster High and ask anyone if there's the most famous freak in the most freaky school, all the kids will say the same thing: Phillip Lester, the only gay in the entire camp, who is only not beaten to death because he is a ghost and already dead. Oh yeah, the best reputation possible, you see. At least they don't know I have no home (let alone having parents) and live in the school building. Thank goodness none of them knows. I know, I'm such a loser, but hell, I go to school for monsters. We are all freaks of nature here, none of us ever gets their happyendings. We are and always will be treaten as "bad" and "antiheros" and of course we are not supposed to live happily forever after.

This is where the story begins. I was hiding in shadows after bumping into Invisibilly in the hallway (he could show himself at least while social situations like that, couldn't he?), when Spectra floated in my direction. She moved closer and her usuall "social friendly" fake smile faded away.

"Hey Spec, what up?" I asked, though it was useless because I already knew perfectly well what's bothering her.

"You know. I'm really scared to go to EAH, and not in a good way."

"Did you try to talk to administrators?"I asked, furrowing my eyebrows.

"I did. They just don't wanna listen, the program needs exactly ghosts." She said sadly.

"Why don't they take Operetta, her father is a phanton, she could count!"

"Well they think differently. I don't know anyone, who could... Wait." She looked me dead in the eye, her orbs and aura glowing brighter. I knew exactly what was she thinking about.

"No, Spec, I can't. Nope nopiti nopely nope. Never." I shook my head, furrowing again. I really can't go to exchange, even in the matter of saving my friend. Don't get me wrong, I love her with all my heart. But she's popular (kind of) and no monster here ever could try and make fun on her. Everybody likes Spectra. And I have nobody to like me, they stopped bulling me only because I befriended her. I can literally die again if I come to Ever After.

"Please, Philly don't do that to me!"

"What could go wrong? There are humans, but also hybrids, you can hang out with them. I know, you are good at socializing."

"I know, but they just won't like me, it's obvious!"

"Why?"

"Didn't you know? The more popular you are in Monster High, the worse you will be treaten in Ever After. I'm gonna die!" She whined. I was in state of shock for couple minutes, but soon my mined put two and two together. The better you are in MH, the worse you get in EAH. Does it work in opposite? Does it mean if you are a freaky loser here, you can be better there?

"Um, Spec?"

"Huh?" Her aura was purple because of sadness.

"I think I might go to Ever After."

"OMG REALY?!" Spec practically scremed in happiness and huged me."Thank you SO MUCH, lion ghost!" She calls me that every time she's happy. And it's a good sign. Spectra held me tighter (thank goodness I have no lungs anymore, they'd most likely be already outside) and went on squealing.

"You are welcome, moonshine." I smiled, and Spectra grabed her phone to tweet about the news and make photos. She's so monsternet addicted, but so am I. I just prefer Stumblr (and also ScareTube but still can't do anything to become part of ScareTube community, no one just would watch my videos).

Well, in a week I'm going to  the new school and I honestly still can't believe that I agreed to do it. Even though I would be treaten nice there (haha who am I kidding I'll be happy if they won't beat me too hard) I'm very nervous. The exchange hasn't even started yet and I'm already having panic attack about having panic attack. The program lasts for two weeks, what am I supposed to do? At least Spec is happy.

There are no nerds in Ever After, right? I don't realy think I'll make friends there.
