No one understands me

Chapter two - School life

I had dropped off Carrie, and now it's my turn to venture into school. As soon as I walked into the corridoor's I had people looking at my marked face, and giving me evil's. I would get upset by it and shamefully hide my face with my hand. I put in my code for my locker and swung my bag into it, grabbed my pen and my note book, and headed off to registration.

When I sat at my desk the boys across from me where asking what happened to my face. So I would give them the simple answer of I tripped, they would laugh so I would join to cover up the emotions of earlier this morning. When people would ask me what happened, my face would sting like it has just happened, but one person that didn't ask was Jake. He was always the quiet kid, who just stared. He would look at my face and when I caught him looking he would suddenly look away.

Time for English had arrived, and we had to write notes on, you guessed it Emotions, and what they really meant. Most questions I got asked by Mr.Trevis I would answer with an emotion to do with earlier, (i.e Anger or despise) I would doodle in my notebook, and draw knives or a heart with a crack through it, or something with flames. I actually love art, and actually I'm pretty good at it when I set my mind to it, I couldn't really do any drawings or painting's at home because my so called mother, wouldn't ever buy me paper or an easel.

Even when it came to lunch I still had the odd people asking me what had happened, and I was getting bored of answering, so in the end I made up different excuses, like I walked into the door, or I fell down the stairs, and even made up stupid ones to get people off my case by saying my goldfish do it. I don't actually have a goldfish, well I did, but a few years ago now. Mum won't let me have pets, we only have Spring because of Mark.

It sent a shiver down my spine every time I thought about Mark being my step-father. (Eurgh) Even though the father is in the title, he still will never and I mean NEVER replace my dad!

At afternoon registration I bumped into Jake when I walked through the door. I never noticed he had the most gorgeous golden brown eyes. His lips were pursed though.

"I'm so sorry," I would repeat it until he finally said something.

"It's ok," He laughed "What are you, some kind of parrot

"Sorry," I repeated.

I turned around and went to sit in my seat. My best friend wasn't in today, I really could of used her today, my other friends were all sat in the corner but I really needed some space, so I sat in my usual seat, smack bang in the middle of the room. I whipped out my phone and sent a message to everyone in my contact list just out of plane boredom. In about five minutes I had sixteen messages. I searched for the one from Ruby (my best friend) but she hadn't replied yet. I just replied to everyone again by saying how are you. I slouched down into my chair, and buried my face into my arms.

I raised up out of my seat after being nudged by Sophie, and went off to last lesson. History!

"Now today were going to study Titanic," Mumbled Mrs.Petterfield

"Arr man," The class said in unison, even me

"We all know that Jack and Rose get together, make out, and then the ship hits an ice burg, they have to be separated, Rose gets off the little boat and gets back on to the sinking titanic, and chases after Jack, and to cut long story even shorter, they both go in the water, Jack dies and Rose survives for many years." We all laughed at Steven's response

"Very good knowledge of the 1997 production of Titanic, but we are going to find out information on the real Titanic," She replied

I rolled my eyes, and stared at the whiteboard whilst Miss wrote down a load of facts that students where telling her.

...The titanic sank in 1912   (Like we didn't know that... derrrr.)

...The ship carried life boats for only 1,178 people

...A total of 2,224 people aboard Titanic only 710, less than a third, survived and 1,514 perished.

And so on a so forth. I was just about to drift off when the bell had rang. So I ran out of class and out the building as quickly as I could, and before you knew it I was at home...

But where's Carrie!!!???
