>Chapter Two

If my memory was correct, the guy who landed on top of me was named Blake, and he got up as fast as he could. I hadn't been able to process what had just happened, though he was panicked and quickly said; '' you won't say what just happened to anyone, understand? '' I got up and nodded my head, which ached a little because of the sudden hard collision with the ground.

He pushed me against the lockers, then grabed me by the collar of my shirt and lifted me a few inches off the ground, '' promise you won't say anything- '' I nodded again, my hands started sweating a little. '' Say it! '' he yelled, was nobody nearby? '' I promise! I promise! Just please put me down.. '' I said above a whisper, and the last part was barely audiable.

He let go of my t-shirt, and I fell back to the floor, after that I ran away and he walked away before someone appeared around. Mae came out of the lunch room's doors, when she saw me asked me if I was okay, which I responded with a small nod.

'' Are you sure? You look like you just saw a ghost or something.. '' I faked a smile and said, '' yeah, yeah, I just tripped and fell''

'' Well, let's go now, class is gonna start anytime now.. '' and as she said that, the bell rung and students were walking everywhere, running and getting their books.

It was finally the end of the first school day of the year, and I had (luckily, but strangely) a friend. I walked out with a book in my hand, and my backpack a bit heavy, everyone walking around was happier than in the morning, though some looked happy even then.

A plain white backpack bouncing slightly in a person's back, with a smily face with a mustache caught my attention. The person in front of me had their headphones on and I knew they were humming to a song.

Angrily, I walked faster and tapped the person's shoulder for them to pay me attention. He turned his head and stopped dead in his tracks when he saw me.

'' I'm so so so sorry! '' he made his words longer as he spoke, while he took off his old headphones. '' Oliver! How could you leave me alone in our first day here! I was left on my own.. And- and-'' I felt tears about to spill from my eyes, but I blinked a few times to stop them.

'' And what? '' he asked innoncently, '' what do you think? '' I snapped, and began running back to the orphanage.

Once I got there, I told Felicia I was going to the park, she agreed mostly because she was busy cleaning around, and I could hear a baby crying in some room. I felt bad, because we didn't have a baby around before today.

The grass was green, and you could feel how good of a day it could be for many people, as kids played with their friends and families had a picnic there.

I sat on the cool grass, setting the backpack down and taking out my history book. Gee, first day and teachers don't hestitate to leave us loads of homework.

I flipped the first page open, reading through it. '' Felicia needs you back there '' Oliver's voice broke me from my thoughts.

'' I'm going.. '' I said. The way he stood there awkwardly told me that wasn't the only reason he came down here.

I sighed, '' do you need anything else? ''

'' Are you seriously still mad at me? '' he asked, knowing very well I was. Maybe I was overreacting..

'' Yes, seriously, now if you don't mind telling me why does Felicia need me,'' I closed my book, leaving the pencil in between the pages.

'' I don't know. Look, I'm really sorry, but- ''

'' Save it. ''

I looked around for my friend and one of the persons who took the time off to take care of us, Felicia. I spotted her talking to some teenager, a sad look on his eyes.

'' Felicia, you needed me for something? '' I asked quietly, standing behind her. She spinned around, the stress from her face disappeared a bit when she saw me. She smiled lightly; '' Seymour, this is Finn. He's new around here, hasn't ever been in an orphanage. I knew I could count on you with showing him around, and his room''

When she left us alone, he had a scared look in his eyes, and he was holding a suitcase on his right hand.

'' Finn.. That's a lovely name'' I said, without thinking, then I took his other hand. '' Come on, let me show you, your room. It's right over here.'' We walked through a corridor, '' do you think I'll spend a lot of time here? '' he asked shyly.

'' I don't know, but you have me as a friend, so don't worry. You're not alone'' I wish someone had told me that when I came here for the first time.

'' How long have you been here, Seymour? '' he asked, curiousy dripping from his voice. '' Oh, it doesn't matter. You get this empty room. Isn't it exciting? You got it all for yourself! '' I forced a big smile to play on my lips.

We stood in the doorway for a few seconds, before he looked down. I followed his gaze, to our hands. I was still holding his hand. ' What's wrong with me?! ' I though, and dropped his skinny hand, saying 'sorry' to him.

He had a blush on his face.. Maybe I was just confused, he couldn't have blushed because of me, could he?

Wait.. He was really skinny! Now that I had a good look at him, he was way too skinny! His cheek bones showed too much, the jeans he was wearing must've been extre skinny-jeans.

'' I-I'm sorry '' he said, '' why? '' I asked. '' You're staring at me, I know I'm thin, too thin, to be exact.. I'm anorexic'' he explain, dropping the suitcase and putting his arms around himself. His head hanging low, I heard how he began to cry.

'' Oh no, oh no. I didn't mean to make you feel bad! I'm just an idiot who stares at people. Really, you should see their reactions'' I told him calmly.

'' It's not that, it's just that.. I'm feeling dizzy'' he stood straight once more, before falling back. I catched him before he fell flat to the floor.

Heyy! I think it was obvious who bumped into Seymour, huh? I'm sorry for that. I'm writing this really late, it might not be good. I don't know. Hope you enjoyed it, though.
