Catch Me If You Can (Larry Stylinson/Marcel)

I quickly ran down the stairs and out the door. I adjusted my glasses into place as I hoped in my car and started the engine.

First day of senior year and I'm not very excited.

All my life I've been bullied because I'm nerdy. It's not my fault I'm smart and dress like a dork.

It's just who I am.

Usually I wear my normal sweater west with my black slacks and dress shoes but today I decided to wear something completely different.

I decided to show my other persona, Harry.

My real name is Marcel. Marcel Geller. The freaky, ugly nerd that has only one friend, slicked back hair and bad anxiety.

My persona is Harry. Harry Styles. The tattooed bad boy with amazing curls and gets all the girls.

But I can only be one at a time and I prefer Harry. I've been Marcel Geller all of my life and it's time for a change. I promise myself that senior year will be the best year ever.

I take my glasses off and put contacts in then hop out of my car. I notice that I'm already getting stares. To me it's just another school year. To everyone else I'm the new kid.

"Ello mate what's your name?" Someone asks as they place there hand on my shoulder. I turn to look at them.

Niall... Niall Horan. The bad boy who has bullied me since preschool. A blond cutie. A real prick. "I'm Harry Styles. I'm new here." That's a complete lie. I've lived here all my life.

He smiles. "Well Harry, stick with me and you'll be just fine." He says then places an arm around my neck and walks me into school. "I'll show you around if you'd like. You can even sit by me at lunch." He says with a big grin.

I fake a smile. "Sure mate i'd love to." I say and he takes my schedule. "Perfect! We have first period together." He says then guides me to a group of people. "Hey guys this is the new guy. His name is Harry." He introduces me even though I know everyone already.

Since I'm shy and have anxiety, all I do is wave at them and offer them a small smile.

After a little chit chat we all go to class. I follow Niall to Geometry and we take seats next to eachother. "I hate math, dude. I'm no good at it." He whispers to me as he puts his feet on the desk. "What about you?" He asks me.

I chuckle. I'm great at math. But how am I gonna tell him that without him thinking I'm a complete nerd? "Yea I suck at it to." I say and take my notebook out.

"Okay class I'm your new teacher, Mr.Potman and don't make any jokes about drug deals or me being a stoner cause I will make them all myself! Haha just kidding!" The teacher says then instructs us on what to do.

Niall waits for me at my locker then we walk to lunch together. I decide on not eating. "So how about we go to the back of the school? That's where we always have lunch every year." Niall says and I nod.

He takes me to the back and sits down on a bench. But the weird thing is there is only two of Niall's friends back here. I thought he would sit by the popular kids. "Hey mate! I'm glad you came to sit by us." Liam says and takes a seat across from me.

I smile. "Thanks for letting me sit with you guys." I say and take a sip of my soda.

Zayn pats me on the back then takes out a smoke from his pocket. "No problem mate. You seem like a cool guy." He says then lights the smoke up. "Want some?" He asks me.

I nod and take the cigarette from his fingers. I take a few puffs then hand it back.

I know what you're thinking. A nerd smoking? That's not typical.

Well you're right. It's not. But if you can't tell, I'm not a typical person. I have a double life late at night.

"Thanks mate." I say and smile at him.

He smiles back and then turns to look at all the other people eating. "Hey where is Louis?" Liam asks and looks around.

"Here I am." Louis says and sits down. He looks at me and smiles. "I haven't seen you here before. You new?" He asks me.

I nod and look down at my hands in my lap. "You're a shy one, aren't ya." He says then takes my hand. I flinch back. He was one of the main guys who bullied me. He has hurt me so bad that I've hat to go to the hospital. "I'm not gonna hurt you. What's your name?" He asks.

"Mar- Harry!" I say quickly.

He chuckles. "Marharry? Lovely name mate." He takes a sip of his soda. "Well it's nice to meet you Harry. I'm Louis and I like pigeons." He says and I crack a smile. "You have an amazing smile." He says then his eyes go wide. "Aw shit I didn't mean to sound gay!" He says and I hear chuckles from the other boys.

Liam puts Louis on the back. "Dude you are gay." He says and I choke on my soda.

Louis glares at me. "Why are you choking! You don't like gays!" He comes and grabs my shirt.

I shrink back as much as I can. "N-no." I barely mutter out.

He gets ready to punch me. Wouldn't be the first time.

I ready myself for his hit. But it never comes. I open my eyes and he lets go of me and pulls me into a hug. "I'm so sorry, Harry. I didn't mean to scare you. It's okay if you don't like gays not everyone will. I don't hate you." Louis says then lets go of me and gives me a smile.

He goes and sits back down. I just stand there, shocked about what just happened. "I-I don't hate gay people. My sister is a lesbian. In actually bisexual." I let all that slip. I cover my mouth and turn away from the boys. "I will catch you guys later." I say and run away. I need to get home. I can't be Harry Styles. I'm Marcel Geller.
