The next day at school, I notice Daniel acting strange. He is avoiding me, I just know it. I bet he's embarrassed about yesterday.

I notice him being especially weird around this girl called Lauren. At lunch time, he approaches her.

"Lauren," he says darkly.

"What do you want, faggot!"

"Are you on your period?" he asks, suspiciously pushing his hair behind his ear.

"WHAT THE FUCK !" She screams, throwing her lunch at him and running away.

He stands there, peeling her tuna sandwich off his face.

I stare at him, confused. Why is he acting like this all of a sudden?

He sees me staring and I quickly look away, pretending to be busy. He doesn't take the hint. I glance over and he's walking towards me determinedly like he's on a mission.

Then I notice it. Dan has drawn two dots on his neck in blue permanent marker.

He's pretending to be a vampire. Could it be anymore obvious with BLUE sharpie???? Why did I ever put this idea in his head.

"Hi," he says.

"Go away unless you're gonna fuck me!" I yell.

"You dumb bitch!" he screams and gaps it, flapping his arms as he runs, pretending to be a bat.
