It starts with a boy name:atlas. A quiet boy in the 4th grade, age:11

     Atlas pov:
I was in class, listening to the teacher m. she was teaching angles, ontill the fire alarm went off we all went into a line and waited for the announcements
Teacher "stay come we still don't know if it is a real or a drill ok" she said politely. My classmates were freaking out but not like screaming or yelling they just looked scared. The announcements: building k and g evacuate to sight A" (we were building k). We evacuated to sight A, wall i was walking all of 4th and 5th grade was out there. Everyone one was freaking out because they didn't say it was a drill, but there was one other boy calm just there. He had purple hair and green eyes with ower uniform on and earrings, tall. I kept staring at him, I dont know why but I did he did meet eyes with me but looked away, I dont know what hit me but......I thought in that moment "why?"
         After the fire was put out we all went to go get ower bags because it took longer then expected to put out the  fire that it was the end of the day. I went to get my backpack and then I look out the door.....there he was standing there the purple haired boy, I told the teacher she let him in and talked to him(I dont know what they talked about). I went to my desk with my backpack fiddling with my Keychain until the purple haired boy came up to me saying "why were you looking at me when we evacuated?" I looked at him speechless, he looked at me weird for a moment, he said "cat got your tongue?"teasing me, I looked at him embarrassed. He said "its ok you don't have to answer, I like your green hair so you know" he walked away.(I had green hair and purple eyes with some black streaks in the front of my hair).
I waited for my mom to pick me up thinking about what just happened confused, the teacher calls me to go home. I get in to my moms car, mom" so i heard that you guys had a fire at school" me "yeah" I say quietly. .Mom.
        We were driving when mom said "well did you atleast eat your food at school" I didn't normally eat my food so this was a frequent question, me "no" I say stern, mom "you need yo eat your food or your going to get sick" I didn't like that we had a time limit yo eat. Last year it was 30min now its 20min I dont know why but I just stopped eating much, it wasn't the food its just I didn't like the sound....it ..kinda creepy me out l, so at lunch I just stayed with the teacher. People would say rude stuff about me but it wasn't like they said I was ugly or fat but weird and creepy. I still didn't like it but they don't control me so I dont care.
          We get home and I go to do ny routine to
1.change
2.homework
3.snack
4.read
5.dinner
6.brush teeth
7. Go to bed
Wall I was in bed I thought about my day again and with the boy with purple hair soon after I fell asleep
         I woke up to the alarm clock "ring ring ring" I stopped it and got out of bed and got dressed in my uniform for school and went down stairs for breakfast. Mom was sitting at the table waiting for me, I sat down and ate not saying everything, mom "I got a call today from school" me "WHAT!" My response was loud because i NEVER got in trouble, me "what'd she say" mom "she said another student came to her and asked about you because you scared him" I was confused a little, because the purple haired kid didn't looked scared he just looked away and why did he ask about me why not just say that i scared him. Mom " he wanted to talk to you but your teacher said that you didn't say enything so he just left" I just sit there finish my food and wash my dishes and get my bag ready, I wait for my mom to finish getting ready so I can go to school. Mom comes done stairs, we get into the car and drive to school the car silent, we get to school and my mom drops me off and leaves, I walk to class, I come inside the class everyone doing there own thing in the morning, I put away my bag and go to my desk pulling out my sketch book ready to draw, but as I was about to draw someone comes up to me, its Chester the kids who picks on my me ontill he's done with his toy, chester "hey greenie drawing today, what if...." he flicked my head. Chester "not fazed huh what about this" he flicked my harder, actually hurting I hold my head in pain. Chester "so thats all it takes huh only a little little harder and it hurts, what a wimp" I sit still the pain fading away.
Chester liked riping out strands of my hair, writing on my desk, call me names, hurt me and rip my drawings. But I never told on him because.....well I dont really know but some reason I didn't. Purple hair walks in and delivers  ower packs for later. Chester walks away with his friends and we start class. I try to focus hard so I dont forget enything, later we start on the packets that Purple hair delivered, it was a review paper quite easy. Then it was ressese to 4th Grade classes go out in the same field and the other 2 4th grade classes on the other side of the field (so they can get there class together faster) I normally just sit at a table and draw. I was drawing and then Purple hair sat next to me. Purple hair "what are you dtawing?" Me "ummmm...... I'm not really sure yet" I cant look at him for some reason, he puts his head down on the table. We sit there in silence. My hand shaking. I start drawing..................
