Monday came quicker than I wanted it to, and I throw on my Motionless in White hoodie, feeling calmer as my cuts get covered with the black fabric.

I grab my bag and walk outside. Today I decided to take the bus that drove by down the street, I wasn't in the mood to walk. So I go to the bus stop and awkwardly stand with the others, a couple year 11 and younger kids stand there.

I take out my ear buds and phone and plug them in. They were looking at me, but I decide to ignore it. I put on some My Chemical Romance and blast I'm Not Okay (I Promise).

The bus ride was more than awkward, I sat alone in the seat behind the bus driver with my ear buds in. Once when I was changing the song I heard a couple of guys insulting me, but it didn't bother me. Not right now. My anger was on Michael, my focus was on Michael. I didn't want it to be, necessarily, but it was anyway. I wanted revenge. But then again, I didn't want to be around him at all.

As the bus pulls up to the front of the school I get off the bus and walk in. People look at me, and I wondered if Michael did anything. Or maybe I was just paranoid. Maybe nobody was really staring at me.

I begin to walk to my first class and I see the three boys who made my life hell only a month ago, Calum, Ashton, and Michael. Michael dyed his hair bright red since I saw him yesterday, and they all look towards me. "Sup gay boy?" Calum asks me.

And nothing has really changed.

I don't respond and simply walk past them, and one of them pushes me from behind and I stumble but I don't fall. I do not let it stop me or slow me down and I just continue going.

I go into my first block class, and as always, nobody is in the room. The lights were off, too, so the teacher hasn't showed up either. The door was held open by a wooden stopper. I put my bag in the seat I normally sit in and check outside in the hallway, to see if they were gone. They weren't, they were just leaning up against lockers. There was nobody else but I just stand in the doorway.

"..just hates me. I did something wrong but I do not think that he should really hold that against me, you know? He is used to being gay and accepting the fact that he is gay but I'm not." I hear Michael explain.

"Just kick 'em to the curb. I think that there's a chance that you are not thinking clearly, especially when it comes to him. He is nothing compared to you Michael." Calum tells him.

There was silence for a moment, but then Michael says, "You're right. I should just have everything be back to the way it was before. Maybe announce that it was a joke for money. Date a girl or some shit."

My heart drops but I continue standing in the doorway. "I'm going to kick his ass for hurting you." Ashton threatens and I check the doorknob, and it was locked on the outside. If they come at me, I'm just going to close the door and they won't be able to get at me without damaging school property.

"Ash, no. I.. I want him to be okay with me. I want to stop fucking up." Michael responds, and I felt happy at that comment than remembered how he hurts me more than he makes me happy. I need to stay mad at him, hold some sort of grudge.

"Then stop fucking up. What is he to you Michael? Nothing. He cuts himself, he's insane! Don't be around him." Ashton snaps, and I want to say something.

I look down, tugging my sweatshirt sleeves.

I hear nothing but a bang and out of curiosity, I move into the hallway and away from the room. I see Ashton on the ground, looking at Michael. He sees me than gets up immediately and comes towards me. I rush into the room and begin to close the door - but it gets stopped. The door flings open and Ashton comes in, followed by Michael and Calum. "You fucking changed him!" Ashton screamed at me and I flinched.
