About That

The Beginning

(Hannah's POV)

Finally, 6th grade. Out of elementary school, into middle school. I'm a grown girl now.
Nope, I wish that's what I thought. Middle school is going to be a piece of shit. Going into a new school sucks. I have to meet new people, when hell even in elementary school I sucked at. I have to memorize new teachers names. And the worst part is, no recess. Actually, that's okay because all I used to do at recess was sit and play on my gameboy. But having to find friends to sit with at lunch would suck. Because lord knows that I'll be sitting alone.
"Bye sweetie!" My mom yells as I walk out the front door to walk to the bus stop. It would also be the first time I ride a bus to school, because I lived closer to my elementary school than I do to this shitty hell hole. Right when I get there, I see a blonde girl waiting. She's tall, much more taller than me. Her legs are long and skinny, well, her overall body is skinny. I honestly don't want to talk to anyone right now, so I put my headphones on.
"Hi, I'm Grace!" I hear her say right when I take out my phone. I hate it when people do that. But I have to be polite.
"I'm Hannah." I say, timidly. I finally see her face, and my God was it beautiful. I saw she was wearing long sleeves and pants, so was I. It was so hot out, why would she? Unless is was the same reason I was. I had self harmed since last year when my uncle, who I loved so much, died. I had just reopened some scars last night and I didn't want anyone to know.
"Why are you wearing long sleeves and pants, it's like 80 degrees!" She says.
"Why are you?" I ask. She looks down, her face looking uncomfortable. I put my arm on her shoulder and roll up my sleeve.
"Oh," her eyebrow raises. "Why?"
I shrug. "I don't know."
"Don't worry, I'm here for you" she smiles and hugs me. My heart beat fast. Wait, Hannah stop. You can't like her. No. That's wrong and against god's word. What would your parents say? Stop it.
"What about you? Why are you wearing long sleeves and pants?" I asked.
"Body issues." She looks down.
"Oh." I go in for a hug, but then, the bus arrives.
