Getting to know Mr. Popular

Chapter one: Mystery guy

I take a deep breath as I walk into the halls of the school. The same hallway where I see different events. And the horrors of the people's stares. I have no one to go to. Just straight to my locker and head off to class. In my classroom, it's always like a zoo where all cages get unlocked. Only when I get to my seat is the time I feel safe. I didn't know if it's fate but I sit next to the most popular guy in class. His name is Jaden. Which has my heartstrings tugged as well. But he barely even gives me a glance.

He's quite a mystery. He never gets off of his seat and always has his head down. He doesn't listen to any of the lessons. He just sleeps it all until the end of the period. But he's still one of the top pupils in class. Though it's a bit weird because he used to be our class clown.

During lunch time, I always get the most nervous feels. Because sometimes I never get a decent seat. And this nerdy guy who is Gordon, always comes to me. He's way bizarre. I could never hide from him. Ever since I met him I never ate without wanting to throw up.

But not only that it is where I get most lonely because I see my crush with his girlfriend, Chelsea. Which is the most popular in school. And the most snobbish creature ever lived. I hear rumors that she has had over fifty boyfriends ever since 8th Grade (Sorry, I just had to). But don't think I only care for such things.

My bestfriend, Emily is also one of the popular group. I guess ever since she had her first popular boyfriend and first heartbreak she has never spoke to me. But she hasn't changed. I mean she's not mean. But she literally forgot about me. She doesn't even look at me one bit. I wonder if she wonders about me. Even sometimes.

All I have is *sigh* Gordon, my dreams, and studies of course.Then I go home. My parents are always out of town. They work as doctors. So I'm the responsible one in the house. I take care of my twin brothers and I never experience a peaceful "me" time. 

This boys get into so much trouble and neighbors come to the front door to complain at least 5 times a day. So I lock them in my closet until dinner time. Then I do my homework and chores. When I look in the mirror I say 3 insults everytime. Then I take my glasses off, brush my hair and look at my weight.

I went out to buy some spices at the grocery store. As I went halfway to the store my wallet fell down. I was near the dead end. Then I heard a splashing sound. It was coming from behind the dead end. It was really dark. I heard another splash then it continued. I was going to ignore it and just continue walking. But then I heard a scream. It sounded like a teenage boy. " Crap, everything is big pile of crap!!!". I was pretty curious. So I went closer. Then I saw a small ray of light. I peeked through the hole. I saw a glistening river. I looked around then I saw a boy. I couldn't tell who it was. He was in front of the light and all I could see was the silhouette of him.

Then I saw him fall down on his knees. And bow his head. I could see he was putting on a tantrum. Then he stood up he grabbed another rock and threw it against the river and did it again and again. A rock hit another big rock and it aimed at me. It hit my eye. Then I yelled in pain. "Ouch!" I think he heard me. He said agressively said, "who's there?" I ran away to the grocery store.

I went home and all I could think about was the guy from earlier. I cooked dinner then I went upstairs and unlocked the closet. My twin brothers attcked me and said curses at me as they ran downstairs. "I said I'm so gonna tell mom and dad what you goofballs have been watching!" And I would expect my closet to look like there was a zombie apocalypse inside. After dinner I went to check my facebook. First thing I saw, Chelsea was single. I was so shocked. I ran across the room and I celebrated. I Danced with Chubby chubs, my dog. It was a nice way to end my day. But I remembered the guy from the river. I wonder who he is. Could he be going to our school? I really wanted to know.
