Daddy S.M

| Prologue |

I rolled my eyes, looking at the popular kid. Shawn. He never breaks our gaze as our teacher drifts on about English.

"Would any of you like to ask Mr. Mendes a question?"

My teacher says, I take the time to actually ask Shawn a decent question. Shawn immediately points to me as I raise my hand.

"What's the difference between I like you, and I love you?"

He has a stern look on, as if he already knew the answer, but the answer is much more than a simple one.

"Well, it's like a flower. If you like a flower, you pluck it. If you love a flower, you water it everyday and take care of it. I do hope you understand what I'm saying. It is the concept of love and life."

I'm bewildered by his response. The class was in all honesty. Even our English teacher had her mouth open. I felt intimidated by Shawn, and it's the first time I've felt this way. There's something about him I need to know..

__________________________

Lee Brooke High was just an average high school, with average students. I heard a rumor about that kid, Shawn, going viral on youtube. Apparently he sings, being the new transfer student, what would I know? Northern Virginia wasn't anything special, neither was Shawn. I grew up with these two dorks, Laurence and Aaliyah.

They're my best friends who moved to the same high school as I. My mother made me transfer schools, since we didn't move houses. The private school I attended were full of students that bullied kids, including me. It got to the extent where my mother found one of my suicide notes and made me transfer. But that's all behind closed doors, outside shows a different story.
