Walking to class I got the same crap I always get. When I got to class I just sat down and listened to the teacher go on and on for roughly 70 minutes, which never seems to end, until the bell rang for the next period. On my way to my english class I ran into my friend Vic, who also has the same english class as me, and we walked there together. Vic is fairly fit, with long straight hair, roughly the same as mine, and a nice tan due to the fact that his family is half Canadian and half Mexican. When I walked into class I felt an odd glare, not the same as usual, this one was threatening and made me feel uneasy. As I looked around, I found the glare coming from Jason, the same one I had seen at the red light earlier in the morning. I don't know what I'd done to make him look at me like that, But I really didn't want to run into him any other time today. While english started to go by, I felt the gaze start to loosen it's grip, and I started to feel a sensation of calmness wash over me.

At lunch I dragged myself to the cafeteria to sit down with the small group of friends I had in the school. I was walking towards the table when suddenly I felt my feet slide out from under me. Before I fell I managed to get a look at who tripped me, and it was quiet obviously Jason. My ears ached from the amount of laughter surrounding me, and I quickly got to my feet and tried to act like nothing happened, when it was damn well obvious that I had just fell on my face. As I sat down at the table, I yelled "God damnit! Why do people always do this crap, I'm sick of it!" Vic easily responded by saying "Come on, man, It's what they do. They don't have anything better to do with their life so they just mess with everyone else." "He's such a jackass! I hate this city, Why did I have to get stuck HERE of all places!" I said in fury. After a short moment I saw Vic's usually calm eyes widen and wondered what he had seen to frighten him. Of course, It was the man of the hour breathing down my neck. I braced myself for something else to happen but nothing really did. I waited and waited and still nothing came, until suddenly Jason blurted out "Watch your step, your making your reputation even worse than it is" which he ended with a chuckle and then turned around and walked away. Not knowing what I was even doing, I jumped up and said "Screw you!" and walked towards him, which I realized was a giant mistake, because now I realized he was much stronger and larger than me, so I quickly backed off before I even started.

The end of fourth period came with a sigh of relief, because I could finally be done with this hell of a day and head home. As I started to gather my notebooks and binder, I realized Jason wasn't even in the class, even though he was in the school, which made that sense of unease from second period return. I checked my surroundings every other second until I finally made it to the carpark. Home free, finally. But then, just as soon as I heard my name get called, I blacked out and fell to the ground.
