Carson's pov

Today was just another day of high school. Nobody would talk to me. So I would be called a freak because I don't talk. They all say I am a mute. To be honest I wish I was. Then i wouldn't have a reason to talk.

Why can they say things about me without knowing me? And it hurts that nobody even thinks about standing up for me. To be honest I think that's why it hurts so much emotionally.

I can hear them making fun of me as I walk through the hallway toward my locker. That's always the worst part of my morning. I wish it would all just stop. But with my luck that will never happen.

I am brought out of my thoughts to hear a girl scream. Quickly, I whirled around to see a guy holding an extremely beautiful girl against the wall.

Without even thinking about it I ran in that direction. I hit the guy in the back of the head with my calculus book. He fell over in pain on the floor. Quickly I grabbed the girl's hand and ran in the other direction.

Once we were away from the guy I let go of her hand. But before I could say anything she wrapped her arms,around me in a hug. I froze in my spot. I barely ever received hugs. But again without thinking about it I put my arms around her.

We both stood there in each others arms, oblivious to the world. I don't know about her but I never wanted to leave this spot with her in my arms. It just feels right. I hope this girl feels the same way...
