Chapter One; Not Edited

'Calum, my precious Calum. You look hot today and I'm getting starstruck on that simple fact. Your raven haired fits perfectly around your ears and I can finally admire your true beauty without it being in your face.

However, I would love for you to wear makeup like you use to do when you were younger, but who am I the one to judge? I think it would bring your features out more if you wear some eye shadow behind your framed glasses.

My dearest Calum, I wish that I could give you advice in person but under some circumstances I can't do so. I hope you will understand that's it's better this way. Some day I will reveal myself to you, until then you have to keep guessing who I am.

Red.'

Ever since winter break was over with I have been receiving notes in my locker. Although, it's not always in my locker, sometimes it's in my backpack or even my binder that I leave on the shelf near my stuff. The notes consisted of how much the admirer loves my certain outfit for the day or even when I'm having a bad day the person seems to find the time to cheer me up. Most people I know would've switched lockers or even go to the school's administration office to stop these random notes from appearing. I'm the total opposite, I find these so called love notes cute and helpful due to them bringing my mood up on my darker days.

Sighing, I placed the note back in my binder and started to make my way to the front of the school building. I moved my glasses closer to my nose as I took in the scenery around me, which consisted of multiple social groups huddling together. The groups consisted of the jocks, people with tattoos, or what I call them, punks, and finally the last groups that consist of the nerds and me, the outcast.

Oddly enough, I wasn't always the outcast in my school. I used to be popular and on the cheerleading team, but when I was a freshman things sadly changed when a certain rumor exploded about me in the end of my first high school year.

The rumor started because I was supposedly seen with the captain of the cheerleading team's boyfriend during a school party. I wasn't even with Jack during that time. I hated him and he disliked me for many reasons and for him to encourage the rumor set me off big time. Ever since then people have been treating me different and even went there way to harm me emotionally and physically.

I pulled the strap to my backpack closer to my shoulder as I strolled through the crowds of wandering students who were trying to get out of this hell hole as fast as possible. Loud laughter erupted from somewhere nearby, making me turn my gaze to where the sound was coming from, and I saw something that made my skin start to heat up with anger. Some jocks were pushing around a scrawny boy with curly brown hair and framed glasses. I balled my hands into a fist when I saw the group pushing the boy into the wall. I stomped over to the forming crowd that seemed to be taking in the scene in front of them and decided to intervene.

"Please let me go."

The scrawny boy whined when one of the jocks closest to him grabbed the binders in his hands, throwing them to the ground.

"That was my art homework! I worked hard on that."

The group of teens didn't even listen to the boys whines and continued to toss him around like he was some football they were practicing on.

"Hey jack asses! Didn't you hear him?"

All five boys whipped their heads around, including the crowd around them and saw me standing there with my hands in a fist. My nose started to flare when one of the jocks who I knew so well started to laugh loudly, causing everyone him to join in as well.

"Well, hello Hood." The jock taunted, knowing I didn't like to be called by my last name. "Why don't we go back to my place and we can finish this argument."He winked, causing invisible steam to appear out of my ears when he brought up the rumor that formed three years ago.

"He sure would love that Jack." Jack's buddy, Louis Tomlinson snorted unattractively. It took ever ounce of my well being not to walk up to the brunette and smack him in the face, but knowing that I would get detention from it I stayed put. The jocks continued to laugh loudly and I almost forgot about Harry, but the jocks didn't and they pushed him to the ground, stomping on his paperwork before leaving the smaller boy on the ground, walking away. The crowd soon followed behind, leaving Harry and I alone to ourselves.

"Harry, are you okay?" I asked with sympathy when some bruises started to appear on his arm. I watched the curly hair boy collect his papers and stuff them back in his binder, getting off the ground with a huff of annoyance.

"I'm fine." He said, brushing some dirt off his jeans before pushing his framed glasses closer to his nose. "How has your day been?"

We started to walk down the hallway together and earned some snickers from the students nearby, but I chose to ignore them.

"Good, I received a another note today." I answered with a shrug.

"Another one already?" Harry blinked as if coming to terms on why the notes keep appearing in my stuff every day.

"Yeah, I guess this person is very captivated with my looks." I joked which earned a chuckle from him.

We walked past the final hallway and saw the punks leaning against the wall with cigarettes hanging in their mouths. They weren't supposed to be smoking inside the school building but I don't think they really cared. One of the punks who had blue hair looked in my direction with a scowl when he saw me looking their way. Me being me, I decided to do the same back until one of his friends noticed our weird exchange which caused me to walk off with Harry following in pursuit until we got outside and the curly haired boy slowed down to follow my footsteps.
