I actually got to talk to Phil and Hazel today, they're both nice. But they're probably just like everyone else, they like fake Dan. Except I'm not sure Hazel likes me at all. Maybe it's just how she is, but she was very quiet and brisk.
But there was something about Phil, I only talked to him for about 5 minutes, but I feel like he knows me already. It's kind of scary to be honest, theres so much I'm not ready for people to know about. But he's kind, he made me feel welcome. Even when we're at the school I've gone to longer than he has.
But Hazel wasn't mean. She just seemed like she held a lot of secrets, like someone who had gone through a lot, and had become reclusive as a result. I wonder if that's how I come across. Probably not, nobody ever seems to notice my act. I don't even notice it much anymore.
There's one person who's onto my act. Marcus Butler. You know, that big strong football star who plays every girl who falls for him? Yeah, that guy.
Well, he's managed to make me open up, with force. He bullies me every day. Carson and Ashton think I have a free period after lunch, when in reality, I'm busy cleaning myself up after inevitably being beaten up.
Yet another thing that nobody knows about. I like to pretend I'm open, just so people leave me alone. But I'm suffering, and I don't know what to do about it.
