Just Me

Chapter 1| begining

"Hey, have you done all the answers loser?" A voice rustles up from beside me. I just nod but keep my head down and concentrate on my art skills. Pretending that the drawing is behind my full page. A thick line scrapes across it as my book is taken away from me to my left. My failed attempt caused many stares when a boy steals my work to copy off me for his grades. My book is passed through out the class and the teacher hasn't even noticed yet.

When I was to bothered to keep track off it, I lay my head down on the desk which is prestige and wait for it to be handed back to me. Instead the hand doesn't come, the air has replaced it and my book smashes the back of my head, causing pages of absolute flawless drawings and math problems to crimp. The room fills with sounds of different laughs coming from the throats of bullies, every single one of them. I know every single one of them except the quiet boy in the corner.

All I really know about him is he is from Asia and his name is Quin yangchu. I watch his projects intensively because his artwork is amazing and he's flawless in all lessons except Science. Poor girl, had to wear a wig the rest of last years, year. Other then that I know nothing. Though he is said to be the hottest guy and heart throb in the entire uni. And I can't help but fall for him from a distance.

I have gotten used to being alone here for over four years. Yes, I've been here longer then most students because I never had a proper education at the orphanage. But Quin started at the start of this year so he has five more years. One because of science. He wasn't allowed back until now, and he can't go into the labs anymore. And I'm so happy because one day, he might finally at least talk to me and become friends.

*RIIINNNGG*

We all get up and pack our stuff, not before our teacher shouted through the rumble of noise erupting from everyone's feet. "Students! Wait! That's was only for people who just came here! Sit back down and listen!"
We did as we were told and I just sighed to myself. 'Great, another two hours.'
"Everyone, you will be doing a project with a partner. Since there are 24 of you, there will be 12 pairs and you have to pick a number out the tin to see who's partner your with."
Everyone groaned including me. Even though I'm a bit uneducated I'm still nearly top of the class. I also hate these kinds of things sir does. I'd rather work alone and be sleep deprived because no-one cares what I look like or not.

My trance is broken when a tin hits my desk. I put my hand in and stick it in to pull out a strip of paper. " ok when you have your piece of paper keep it on you. I will call out 1 to 12 and you'll see who your partners are."
As he goes through the numbers I don't have to wait long until he calls my number.
"Number 10 stand up and see who your partner is." I get up and I hear people snigger as I walk up and turn my head to see my partner. My eyes widen in shock as Quin is my partner.
(IK cliché but meh) he smiles at me and I give one back like nothing's wrong.
'Yes everything's wrong because I'll get bullied and teased and I'll ruin Quin's popularity with my horrific looks and good knowledge seeping over the brim of my brain well pool.

After I met my partner and the other four were done the teacher left us because we had a day to be with our partner to see things over before we discuss what will be needed.
I just sat there and banged my head on the desk. No-one cared so why not.
A finger tapped my shoulder and I look up to see Quin standing above me, luckily standing infront of the devil we call the sun. "Why are you banging your head Vanessa?" That's my middle name.. Why would he call me by my middle name.  'Omg I haven't even told you my name yet! Ok readers my name is Kellie Vanessa Williams but my future friends will can me Vanessa hopefully.' "Hi Quin. Um..I'm just banging my head because I thought no-one would notice? And before you say anything, it's fine if you want me to do all the work and not hang around with a 'loser' like me." I sighed at the end whilst Quin laughed at my sarcasium lacing the word 'loser'. People stared and laughed too, pretending that they knew what was funny.

"I'll be glad to work with a fellow artist, and by the way, you got stunning handwriting." I blushed abit thinking that my wish from earlier came true and his sweet compliment. I bowed my head to see if he wouldn't noticed but he lifted it up gently. I have out a little eep as his cod fingers made contact with my cozy forehead.
"Ssh ssh princess, now. How would you like to see things over our art?" I just give a weak nod and think over what just quickly happened in a matter of a couple minutes.
A paintbrush soon came flying from the direction from the mass group of boys surrounding each other in the corner. I pick up the now broken brush and read the note on it, assuming it has writing on.

Hello princess, go to Jason's house party tonight. Make sure you wear something nice, if not, I'll kiss you.

I gave out a eww and a few stares caught my eye, but then I laughed it off, pretending it was a prank. I wouldn't mind actually getting kissed depending who it was, just the thought of a random 40 year old man filled my thoughts and my face cringed until it was a lemon.
'EW GET IT OUT GET IT OUT MOTHER OF HOLY CHEESE RAPEIST.'
I get up and push open my desk. I look upon it to see my pictures of anime and Chiba things. Minecraft and my own style. Mythical.

I get out my drawing equipment and start drawing to my hearts content till a bell rings for the end of lessons and I can go back home. My first house party. Now I'm a little worried...
