"Get out the house!" My mum shouted before booting me out the front door. I fell unto the ground and I quickly stood up, acting as if it didn't hurt at all. Mummy throwing me out the house was a very regular occurrence it seemed. I flicked her the good old finger before sprinting off for school. 

I'm half way to my team meet when I bump into someone, a girl. Her hair was in between the colours of brunette and blonde and her height was small. She found her balance and finally looked to me then smiled. She even raised her eyebrows. I laughed when I saw she hadn't any for they were as white as her face.

"Hey there, I'm Summah, that's with an 'ah' not an 'er'." Great, she was one of those, I thought to my self. She stared at me expectantly but I didn't say anything. I didn't even smile back. Unbothered, I subtly try to move pass her. She doesn't bulge. "What's your name?" She asked, she was persistent. 

"I'm Mars" I sighed out

"Mars, like a mars bar? That's an odd name, I'm Summah" 

"You already said that" I muttered.  A moment passed in silence and she was about to speak again when I shoved her out of the way, sending her tumbling down the co-working stairs. Oh well. Its an unusual Monday as I walk to class. Ace's friend group kissing and spooning in the corner. Joe and Leo staring at each other intently as they said over and over, "No homo bro?" in which the other would reply "Never heard of homo lad". I smiled to my self when I watched the chavs fight over who's bunda is bigger  and curse when I spotted Summah surrounded by a bunch of people in tears. I shrugged and walked pass the scene. 

She will never be as cool as me anyways. I'm an emo boy who covers their eyes with my dark falling hair and cool dark clothes. My life motto is "dead inside" and my IQ point is 290  because I listen to something called metal music. I read that off Wikipedia by the way. I mean, everything about me screams "METAL ROCK HITS HARD DUDE". That girl Summah got nothing on me. She never has never will.

As I walk to class, the familiar feeling of loneliness hits me. The sad truth is, and I know this may sound impossible but, I have no one. My life is a wreck and well... I'm in grief, yep believe it or not. Every year for Christmas, I ask for a friend, but that bitch Santa never listens. You know what? Fuck Santa man! What has he ever done for me! All I get it toast and butter on a Christmas day!

I'm smacked out of my dark bruiting thoughts, quite literally. Somebody threw over a laptop on my head! I groan in pain and search around for the culprit. I swear when I get my hands on who ever did that! I search for somebody but nobody is around. Strange.....

"Everybody head to team meet it's 8:30!" Linsey called. Every student scuttles into their form room. I take my seat at the back like the guy that I am and get ready to jam to my metal music when the door bangs open and I feel my face drain of colour. 

"Hello class we've got a new student joining our team meet," The teacher announces  "Niki, you can sit at the back next to... Mars" 

I feel my demeanor stink in fear and unintentionally touch my nose. It was the witch.

They made their way towards me and took a seat. I began to sweat at how close they were when they turned to face me, an evil wit about their expression. 

"Hello Mars"
