Feeling alone.

The rest of the day went by okay, other than the few snickers and comments that I always get.

No one wants you.
I chewed my lip and tried to concentrate on what the teacher was saying. It was hard, but I managed to get the note down and listen to the lesson. When the last bell finally rang I gathered my things and got ready to walk home. I wasn't sure if Luke wanted to walk with me or not. I stood by the entrance for a few minutes and thought about texting him but decided not to because I didn't want to annoy him. I began walking home by myself and it started to rain.
Now, when I say rain I mean it poured. I began walking faster and a car came skidding to a stop beside me, splashing me with water in the process. A window rolled down and I put my head down and kept walking.
Laughter.
Cathy and Alexis.
I walked faster and tried to get myself home and they followed after me calling names

Worthless
Nothing
I wrapped my sweater around me tighter and kept walking. I guess eventually they got bored because they pulled away from the side of the road and sped off.
I arrived home a few minutes later, closing and locking the door behind me I headed up to my room.
I pulled out my laptop and turned it on, checking my Facebook and skype.

ASSHHHH!!!
That made me smile. We talked for a while until chi had to go to bed. Time zones really suck.
I listened to music for a while, singing along and eventually I fell asleep. When I woke up the next morning I got ready for school and waited as long as I could before I had to go. I didn't stop to ask Luke to walk with me because I figured it's for the best if he makes other friends that aren't me. He'll forget about me eventually and then at least he won't get bullied because of me.
I walked with my head down thinking about everything that's happened lately. Luke was a great guy, and he'd make a good friend. But I don't want to be a reason for him to be miserable. When I got to class I sat down and listened to the teacher, blocking everyone else out.
Luke
She didn't wait for me this morning. She never even came over to ask if I wanted to walk with her... Does she not want to be my friend? She's been avoiding me all morning...

The bell signalling that it was lunch time rang. I hugged my books to my chest and headed to my locker. I set them away and sat down in an empty hallway. I didn't want to face everyone. Maybe Luke would find someone  better to sit with...
