Hey! This is my new and first story I write for a writing contest in wattpad so I would love you guys to read it, thanks to everyone :D 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She is the kind of girl who never speaks unless it's needed, that girl who is sitting at the bottom of the class listening to music with her headphones. You won't hear her talking about clothes, handsome guys or makeup, no... that's  just not her thing but you may have an interesting chat about different topics like for example: Shakespeare's Plays or whatever she concider it worth talking about. 

Talking about her physical appearance she looks like a normal 17 year old girl, she is short and a little bit plump, she has long wavy brown hair which highlight her beautiful green eyes and a rosy skin tone with freckles. 

Maybe you are wondering: what makes her so especial? you should have asked that before! She has a blog where lots of people think it's written by a genious. So in conclusion her mind is what makes her especial. None would ever imagine someone like her being shy or afraid of being herself but real life is quite different from virtual life.

What's her name? oh sorry I forget to say that, her name is Larissa Miller, the one who is on the school canteen's Floor standing up after someone made her fall.  Absolutely nobody helped her stood up again, of course, they were very busy laughing at her, but what did you expected? that's how school it's like.  There she goes now, to the always empty place with no people arround but she likes it on that way, why? not even she knows the reason, none tries to close to her and Larissa doesn't want people to think she is weird or something like that. She wants to be alone with her mp3 and her headphones drawing her vision of life.

Wait! If I want to do tell correctly let's start again and start that morning so you can see how a normal day is for Larissa.

-Issa Breakfast!- her mom called from the kitchen.

-Going!- she answered. 

She went out of the bed to get ready to start another day where she would be completely ignored just as any other day. She chose her favorite band t-shirt (it was a My Chemical romance one), a pair of jeans and her black converse. Makeup? Nope. Larissa hates makeup so much, she conciders makeup is like a mask to hide imperfeccions and that's exactly what she want's to avoid.

Her mom was waiting her with breakfast served, which was a cup of coffee and toast with strawberry jam, that was Larissa's favorite breakfast, her mom was the only one who was concerned about what she liked and about her.

-morning mom!_ she said smiling

- morning honey! how did you sleep?_ she answered also smiling 

- good thank you_ she took a bite to her toast_ mom.. is dad going to?.._ she didn't finish to form her question.

- I'm... not sure sweety, you know he is really busy to come home_ she gave Larissa a sad look.

- I see... It's late I have to go to school_ she stood up_ bye.

- bye sweety_ it was the last thing Larissa heard from her mom. 

She was feeling down, her dad works in a office almost all day so when he comes home Larissa is already sleeping and he told her that they would spend time toghether but it wasn't a surprise for her, it was a normal thing. 

After a few minutes walking she finally arrived school. As soon as she walk in, Rachele Blake started to make fun of her, why? because she was a bully, Larissa knew that but she wasn't brave enough to stop that girl.

-well well well, what do we have here? the little freak_ she said laughing and playing with a lock of her hair_ what are you doing here? shouldn't you be in your planet?

- d-do-don't do that_ she said shakily.

- What are you gonna do if I don't want to?_ she said bitterly.

- j-just stop_ she said.

- hahahaha you see guys? she is a weak bitch and a freak, that's what you'll always be_ she walked away leaving her shaking and feeling even better than after but Larissa wasn't expecting something different.

The rest of the day passed so quickly, she kept away from the ones who could hurt her but there was something or rather someone who looked different. He might be new- she thought- as she didn't remember seeing him at school. He walk into the classroom smiling, he looked at the teacher and apologized for being late. The teacher understood that he was new so she didn't tell him anything as she would do with someone else. Laura, the math teacher, asked him to introduce himself to the class, he accepted.

- Ok aparently I have to indroduce myself so_ he was still smiling, Larissa paid attencion to him for the first time, he has short curly reddish brown hair, beautiful blue eyes and a childish bright smile what makes him look innocent and cute, or at least Larissa thought that. He was wearing a red hoodie, black pants and a pair of red old converse. She couldn't take her look out of those bright blue eyes_ I'm Dustin. Dustin Mayne, we moved here last week and I hope to get well with everyone_ maybe it was her imagination but he smiled at her, what made her blush but she immediately looked down in order not the others to notice it. It is impossible that he had smile at me, he should have smiled for everyone in general-she told herself.

-Welcome Dustin, we hope you feel comfortable here_ she smiled at him and he returned the smile_ you can have a sit now I'll check your homework and the ones who haven't done anything will have extra task, ok?_ everyone grumbled_ Enough! now let's start, Adam  would you come here to do the first exercise?_ she asked. The rest of the class Larissa was watching Dustin, he had something different from the rest of  her partners, she thought for a moment that maybe he wouldn't be as bad as them but she got that thinking out of her head. Don't be stupid Larissa! he would never notice you even if you were the only human being on earth face- she told herself.

The math class finally ended and everyone went to have lunch and Larissa was planning to go to her favorite place to do that and also to write in her blog without interruptions and annoying people close to her. Here we are again in the part when she was on the floor with everyone staring at her, some of them laughing, some of them smiling and some of them just looking at her but the attencion of everyone was on Larissa, what was really annoying for her. She never enjoyed being the spotlight. 

She left the canteen running but what she didn't know was that there was someone staring at her worringly. The last person she could think of was worried for her. Dustin run after her trying to find her, which was stupid of him taking into account that he was the new guy in school and he didn't know where her especial place was. He suddenly thought it would be better to just leave her alone, after all, he didn't know her and apart from that when someone runs away is to be alone.
