Unwanted

Chapter 1~Not like the rest

Many people say its good to be different, well not where I come from. I was an outcast I didn't fit in. Maybe its because I most of my wardrobe was black, maybe its my music, maybe its just who I am...

Date- October 31st

Zarina's p.o.v

'Oh great Halloween aka my stupid birthday...' I slipped out of bed and walked to my bathroom 'Dammit I really don't wanna go to the hellhole or the actual term school. The place where you think you'd be safe but you'd be very wrong' I looked at myself in the mirror and sighed at my reflection 'I'd probably like going if people weren't such assholes. I mean I look good...why can't they just fucking accept me and stop being jerks?'' I ran my fingers along the cold glass over the black flower pattern on the edges. I brushed my teeth and got dressed then brushed down my black hair with purple bangs that hung across my right eye 'maybe if I had colorful clothing they would be nicer...I mean black is kinda scary to some.' I looked down at my black combat boots up to my black leggings with sides that lace up, to my shirt a simple black crop-top with the blood red words "I like my music loud" I grabbed my leather jacket and slipped it on then grabbed my phone and earbuds 'well here goes another day in hell..' I pop in both buds and set the music on shuffle, the first song that plays We don't belong by Black Veil Brides. 'I know I don't belong...' I stepped outside and was immediately hit with a gust of cold October air, I pushed my hair out of my face and walked off on my route to school.

>~At school~

I walked through the big double doors of the school and looked around at the other students conversating with eachother 'Shit I'm early...' I hated being early because then I had to wait around for classes to start, which meant more time for people to mess with me. I quickly walked to my locker and sat on the floor in front of it. 'I fucking hate people...' I hugged my knees against my chest and waited, ignoring all the quiet murmurs about me. I closed my eyes and looked down at my lap 'I can't wait til I'm out of this school for good..' The next song on my phone plays This is war by 30 Seconds to Mars. I let myself get lost in the song, forgetting where I was.

Just when the song began to get good I had the wind knocked out of me like a truck just hit me. I groaned and rolled over onto my stomach searching for my ear buds they had popped out at the sudden impact and now I can't find them 'shit! They're all i have to keep myself sane!' I looked at the person who ran into me 'I swear if my buds are broken I'll kill this bastard!' I slowly rose up from the ground and looked at him he rolled over so he was on his back then sat up.

"Ugh..that really knocked the wind outta me.." he chuckled and stood up. He had an accent...its obviously British he was pretty good looking, well built, a slight beard going on, nice poofy black hair with beautiful brown eyes. "Erm are you alright?" He stepped closer to me and examined me "I'm fine" I grumbled and looked around on the floor for my headphones "hey freak show looking for these?" 'Aw shit its Francis...' I turned to him and saw him holding up my ear buds by the chord "yes, now can i please have'em?" I say nicely "oh sure" he makes it seem like he's gonna hand them to me but he purposely drops them and steps on them breaking them into little pieces. "Aww man you know my bad they slipped..." he teased. I flared up with anger but what's the point? I couldn't do anything...

I clench my phone and let out a slight growl. Then the guy I bumped into stepped up "ya know I'm not an idiot right? I saw that you did that on purpose!" He seemed mad. "Maybe it was on purpose." Francis smirked "but what are you gonna do about it?" He stepped closer the guy "I'll knock the asshole right out of ya!" He raised his fist but I couldn't let him punch Francis that'd be very bad for me.. I grabbed his arm and looked at him with pleading eyes "please don't..." he looked over his shoulder at me and dropped his arm "why? This bastard deserves it!" "Just don't!" I squeezed his arm letting him know I was serious "grr...fine..." he grumbled.

"Haha! Look at the British loser giving up!" Francis teased. Well shit. The British boy turned back to Francis and raised his fist again then punched him right in the nose down went Francis holding his now bloody nose "you really should talk shit about people you don't know" He smirked then turned to me "hey um..class won't start for another half hour..would you like to go somewhere else?" I nodded slightly still a little shocked from the current events "alright let's go then" he softly grabbed my wrist and pulled me off towards the cafeteria. I followed until we reached an empty table then he sat down so I did too.

"So...I never got your name.." he said awkwardly "its Zarina... Zarina Hades..." I said quietly but loud enough for him to hear "That's such a beautiful name" he said with a big smile "well Zarina is a witches name and Hades has something to do with darkness..." I said trying to scare him a bit "that's cool" he laughed "I'm pretty sure my name doesn't mean anything as cool" "really? What is it?" I asked "Atticus Maslow" "oh well I'm not sure if that means something else..." I laughed softly. "Eh I knew it" he shrugged "haha well then..." I looked down at my phone trying to make it less awkward "you have very unique eyes..." he said with a slight laugh "oh uh..thanks..." I looked up at him with my different colored eyes one was a light sky blue and the other a soft green grass color. "No problem love" he nodded to me. I blushed a little at the 'love' part.

Soon the bell rang and we both stood up "well I'll see ya around Zarina" Atticus smiled and waved as he walked off. 'Did I just make a....friend..?' I wondered as I walked to class.
