You'd usually start a story with how everything began and why it happened, so I suppose I should too.
My name is Xenon Evander.
I was born into a small family with callous parents and a big sister, on 13th September, a friday. It was a rainy, depressing afternoon with lots of worry and misery, perfect to give birth to someone like me.
And you know what? This is my story, so I am going to begin wherever the fuck I want. None of this is important for what I want to tell you.

As I was rushing off the schoolgrounds I felt a rough push force me forward onto the ground. I groaned and glanced up to the miserably laughing guy above me and his so called friends.
"Aw, is little Xenny gonna cry? Did it hurt? Hmm?" he sneered, crouching down to me.
He harshly grabbed my chin and spat right on my face. Disgusting.
"You didn't plan on missing our daily meet-up, did you?"
"No idea what you're talking about, bastard." I sputtered back, slapping his hand away.
But obviously I knew what he meant. I knew it very well. No, we wouldn't hang out together like friends do, what he meant by our daily meet-up was nothing more than him beating me up every day after school. Sometimes during the lunchbreaks too. Whenever he felt like it.
It's not like I fear to fight back, but I am simply physically weaker than him. He isn't even much more massive than me, but a year older and visibly taller, so there is no point in trying to fight him.
His amused expression faded. "Feisty today, huh?"
"Get lost, Adonis."
That's his name, if I haven't mentioned it yet. Adonis Xanthe. And yes, he looks as stupid and arrogant as his name sounds too.
"Seems like you forgot who I am." he replied and dragged a hard slap across my face. "If you want it so bad, I can tell everyone your filthy little secret. I bet everyone would be interested in knowing you're a faggot." Adonis whispered sharply after yanking my head up by my messy, black hair.

I'm not sure where he got that information from, but what he said is true. Girls have never been a significant part of my interests.
You might be wondering why he hasn't told anyone yet, and to be honest, I don't know either. Maybe to keep me under his control, which I wasn't anyways though. Sure, I didn't really want anyone to know that I am a homosexual, but I never felt like letting him threaten me either.
If he felt like telling anyone, I wouldn't try to stop him.

"You sound pretty gay too for caring so much about me liking men"
I barely finished my sentence when he suddenly pulled me up by sweater's collar and slammed me against the closest wall, causing a stinging pain to draw through my whole body.
I suppose I shouldn't have said that.
"You fucking disgusting brat" Adonis huffed, glaring at me, and punched right into my stomach. I gasped for air, not able to react when another punch landed on the side of my face.
Soon, my whole body was covered with fresh bruises and injuries.
Yes, Adonis would hurt me every day, but it didn't always get this bad. This day was one of the few I openly gave him a reason to get aggressive, so of course he took that as advantage to fuck me up even more than usual. I later walked home with bleeding lips and lots of dark spots all over my body. Everything hurt, but I was used to it by now. He had been bullying me for years now and it's honestly just getting worse. He seems to have hated me from the very first day I joined his class, without me having done a thing.
But maybe I'm just meant to be treated like that? I've always been some sort of a weirdo and am clumsy enough to embarrass myself infront of other's fairly often. My hair is messy no matter how much I brush it. I'm pale, almost as if I've never seen the light and my eyes look dull even on the most sunny days. I suppose I have a good, sturdy body, but I am noticeably shorter than most other guys my age.
There's just nothing attractive about me and I don't really have the personality of someone people like to be friends with either, so what's left for me in life beside getting bullied?
To be fair, beside Adonis most people don't do much and just ignore me or give me weird looks, but that's not any better.
Of course that ugly blondie is horrible to many people on our school, but I have always been his favourite.
We've never been friends or something, so I never knew why he focused me so much. I just accepted it.

To give this day a proper ending, I want to tell you about my sister's worry when I reached home later on. My dad was working the whole day as always and mom never bothers to look after us, so my sister Enyo was the only one caring for me. She always is.
I walked past the kitchen when she greeted me in absence, not looking up as she was preparing some food.
"Welcome home, dear brother!"
"Hi"
"Are you hungry?"
"No"
Then she looked up with an annoyed smile. "I wouldn't mind a proper conv-"
As she saw my injured face, Enyo paused and it didn't take long for her little smile to fade. "He beat you again?!"
I sighed. Her noticing my bruises was the last thing I wanted in that moment. "Don't worry about me all the time, I'm not five anymore.."
"Don't avoid my question, Xen! Did he?"
"Yes! So what?!"
"You can't let him keep doing his to you!"
"It's none of your business damnit!"
And that's when I rushed off and slammed my door close. I must agree with what you might think now - I was acting like a bitch.
But what was I expected to do? There's nothing she could've done anyways and that afternoon I just felt like crying.
Which I didn't, but maybe that's why I've become such a cold wreck towards everyone. After all those years I stopped caring, same as crying. It was worthless.
I was completely sure my last few years of school wouldn't make Adonis any friendlier.
