"All you need is one good friend. I could be that one good friend. Good friends are good company" - Max


((Spark's point of view))

"I'll get your kite Nano, Don't worry i'll be alright"

"oh- thank you Spark"

This school seams like a great place, everyone is so calm and relaxed. but... they do talk shit about one kid... I would like to meat this kid, as far as I have learned he doesn't have any friends and doesn't seem too happy.

"see! I've got it!"

"thank you Spark!"

I threw the kite down to Nano and looked around at the school that seemed so.. so. so purrfect, that is when I saw him. 

A short kid huddled in a corner with cute messy brown hair making his pale skin look a little more colourful. I want to call to him when I felt an overwhelming sense of loss and grief, it made me lose my footing and I start to fall forwards into the boys hiding place.

what do I want to say to the boy who looks like his world is ending?

What should I say?

What can I say?

I close my eyes as the ground rushes towards me but instead of hitting roots or dirt I land on something soft and warm.

My eyes open to the boy from the corner underneath me, cushioning my fall, his hair is so much cuter up close and his eyes are a beautiful brown, those little freckles splashed across his face make him look like a lost child... but the sadness in his eyes... where is his sparkle?

"th- thank you for catching me"

I quickly get up and offer the boy in front of me a hand...

"here let me help you up"

"go away."

"What?"

"I said go away. go play goodie goodie mister sunshine with the other kids. Unless you want my spot at the bottom of the food chain"

when the boy said this I saw the badge on his dirty woolen jumper

'Doggie: must obey everyone in the school no matter who they are. Has no opinion or authority over other students'

The other kids told me about this. poor guy...

"I just wanted to thank you"

"If you want to thank me, leave"

why is this guy so aggressive? his voice is so soft.. so quiet I want to hear more

"How about after school you come to my house?"

"no"

"hmm, ok. After school you WILL come to my house"

"fine"

YES! I feel bad telling him he should come over but what else am I to do? I don't want to leave this guy, he needs help. he needs something, something that i could help find...
