Highschool AU
*Trigger warning talks about bullying and suicide
Nico's P.O.V
"Fag!" The blonde haired boy yells at me. Then the brown haired one punches me in the face.
"You fucking stupid prick." The brown haired one says. They hold me down on the wall and beat me senseless. Everyday this happens. It's not always these two. There are others. Twelve others. I'm used to it. Sometimes I don't even feel it. My parents you ask? Moms dead. Dads never home and when he is he's working. So really I don't have any. My father works to distract himself so it doesn't hurt as much. My sister and mother were both murdered.
They leave me for dead and run off. I stand up, barely and wipe the blood dripping from my nose onto the sleeve of my aviator jacket. I start to walk home. This is how life is for me. I'm just used to it. I'm nothing. I feel nothing. Except sad. The occasional mad. And a lot of the time depressed. Life goes on. It proves that if you don't make a difference in everyone's life's then your nothing. I'm nothing. Done nothing. Won't do anything. There for am nothing.
I stumble into my room. I blare my music as loud as I can. It helps with the pain. Most of the time. Sometimes there's too much for even it to heal. I do my homework and go to bed.
I open my locker just for it to be slammed shut in my face. The person walks away. I open my locker again and continue.
"Class this is Will Solace! Our new student!" My cheery biology teacher says. I look up. A beautiful blonde boy stands at the front of the room. His golden hair frames his face perfectly. Freckles dust his face. He's built nice. Then my gaze is broken by something hitting the back of my head. I turn around and I pick up the note.
I saw you staring you ugly fag. He's mine bitch. And he won't like you anyway. Your fucking busted. Go die gay wad!
The note said. My hand shot up in the air and the teacher looked at me. "Mayiusetherestroom?" I blurt out. I hear snickers behind me.
"Oh sure Nico!" The teacher smiles at me. I stand up and run to the bathroom. I slam the stall door. I let a tear drop down my cheek. I wipe it away and go back to class. When I get back the Will kid was sitting in the desk next to mine. I realized I left the note out on my desk and it was open. I feel my face heat up. I take my seat.
"Hi I'm Will!" The boy says and holds out a hand. I look behind me. Is he talking to me? There's no one behind me. "Me?" I ask.
"Yeah you who else?" He smiles. I feel the need to put on sunglasses because of his bright ass smile.
"Oh haha Nico Di Angelo." I don't smile, why should I? He's just being nice and soon he'll be a popular boyfriend of one of the popular sluts.
"Why do you let them treat you like that?" He whispers In my ear.
"You read that!" I hiss.
"Is...is it talking about me?"
"Yeah, it is."
"You like me?"
"I don't know you. I just like the way your face is. Your personality seems good... Right now. But why would you care?"
"Because I like the way your face looks too smart ass." He whispers in my ear again. It tickles. It feels good. Natural.
"Hmm that's a first."
"Is that so?"
"Oh you have no idea."
"Why don't you tell me then."
"Because I'm not going to get attached to you. You'll get hurt or I will and I've had enough of both." The bell rings and I walk swiftly out of class. It stings a little that I said the things I did. And knowing he likes me. But I think that was just for show, or something.
~~~~~~Jerry the time lasp~~~~~~~~~~~~
I pull up my sleeve. I take a good look at the old scars. I haven't done that in 7 months. I'm going to keep it that way.
Hhm.
As I walk into the school building I get shoved super hard and fall to the ground. I hear snickers and I get up and move on. I have better things to do. As I approach my locker I catch eye of a horrid sight.
Some popular girl had Will pinned to a locker sucking his face. I feel a pang of sadness run through me. See that is why I didn't want to get to know him. It hurts enough already.
"The hell is wrong with you!" I hear someone shout. I turn around expecting someone to be looking at me. But it was Will shouting at the girl. "Sorry Hun I'm gayer than a rainbow!" He storms off in the opposite direction. I smile to myself.
Maybe I was going to give Will a chance.
