The Nobody

Chapter 1

Hello everyone my name is Ruby and I'm a nobody. Yes you heard me right no one sees me and my parents always say I'm a nobody. So thought I would call myself that. I don't have any friends no one really dresses like me. No one really listens to the music I listen to.

My parents have tried to change me for years. But I won't let them. Sure I'm a nobody and I accept that. But I won't change the way I dress and what I listen to. The music helps me through this. I don't know why I'm writing this all down. I think it's because of what my therapist said.

She thinks if I write how I feel and fill this up. It would help me I don't think it will. But if my parents aren't complaining as long as I write in this then I will.

I am in lunch at school writing in this. When I feel someone standing over me. I quickly close the book and looks up. It was Tracy she is the popular girl. She loves making my life hell. I quickly stash my journal away before she could take it from me.

"Awww the emo freak is writing about killing herself. Why don't you do all of us a favor and do just that," she says. I make my face go blank. I'm used to hearing that all of the time. That it doesn't affect me. "But then I won't be able to annoy you then if I am dead," I said.

She gives me an angry look and was just about to slap me. When I grabbed her hand and shoved it away. "Take your plastic ass out of here. By the way they did a terrible job with your fake boobs," I said.

She glares at me and doesn't say anything walking away from me. I knew I was going to pay for that later but I didn't care. I sit down and starts to eat my food. I look up when I feel someone watching me. I see this one boy with black hair and blue green eyes.

He wore black with a band logo on his shirt. The name of the band is bring me the horizon. He must be the new kid I heard so much about. I wonder if anyone will pick on him.

I look him up and down more. The way he dresses means they will and just like I thought Tracy and her gang walk over to him. I was waiting to see if they would pick on him or not. But to my surprise they don't they hang all over him. I watch how he reacts.

The look on his face is disgust but when they look up at him. His expression changes and he smiles at them. I didn't want to watch anymore so I look back down and eat my food. That's when I heard someone approaching my table.

I don't look up thinking it was Tracy and her clones that were finally coming back to get their revenge. But then I heard someone clear their throat and I knew it wasn't them. I look up and I see the new boy sitting in front of me.

I look around him looking for Tracy and her clones and sure enough I see them. Their eyes were widen in shock. I couldn't help but smile some at their expression. It was a little comical. I look back at the new guy and I see him smiling at me. I let my smile fade and puts on a poker face.

"I couldn't help but watched how you acted around that one blonde chick with the fake boobs," he says. I couldn't help but laugh on that. So I wasn't the only one to notice them being fake. "I'm Andy I'm new here and your the first person who doesn't drool all over me," he says.

I roll my eyes and looks at him. "I just keep to myself it's easier that way," I say to him. He frowns. "Don't you get lonely? When I looked at you, you seemed all alone," he said. I freeze on what he just said and stares at him some.

"I don't get lonely I'm just different and I'm not going to change myself to fit in like everyone else," I said. He smiled some more. "That's good it's better to be yourself," he says. I couldn't help but smirk. "Is that why you let Tracy and her clones be all over you?" I asked.

"Something like that I like to see how people are before I befriend them," he said. I couldn't help but be intrigued by what he said. "So like trying on a sweater?" I asked him. "Or a sexy new leather jacket," he says. I rolled my eyes at him.

"But seriously what are you doing here sitting in front of me? Is there something you want from me?" I asked him. I wouldn't let my guard down not after what happened two years ago. I think to myself. "What if I told you I was looking for a friend?" He asked me.

I couldn't help but shake my head on this. "Well you are looking at the wrong place then because I am not looking for one," I say. With that I walk away from him. I go to my next class thinking I wouldn't see him again. But when I go to my seat I saw that he was sitting next to me.

I couldn't help but groan to myself. "What you thought you wouldn't see me again?" He asked me. I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "Something like that. But I can deal just don't talk to me I don't want to hear from you while we are in class," I say. He nods his head and turns to the front.

Just when I thought he was going to finally leave me alone he tosses me a note. I don't look at it but when I felt him staring at me more that's when I grab the note and reads what he has to say:

Why won't you let me be friends with you?

I couldn't help but laugh a little to myself and I write this back:

Friends are fake they aren't real their meant to stab you in the back.

I write back I hand it over to him and I see him stare at it more. Just when I thought he was going to leave me alone again. He tosses me another note and I can't help but grit my teeth on it.

Not all people are like that.

That's when I felt myself laugh. "Miss. Jones is there something you wanted to share with us what you are laughing about?" Our teacher asked me. "It was nothing I had something stuck in my throat is all," I say. I heard everyone snicker on that.

No doubt they were thinking perverted thoughts like always. I just ignore them and the teacher goes back to teaching. I don't write in the note again and I crumble it up and throws it in my backpack.

Once class was over with I walk to my locker. Getting ready to leave for my secret place I like to go to, to be alone. After I grabbed all of my stuff I was about to turn away. When I see Andy again. His locker was next to mines. I was just about to walk around him when he stops me.

I grit my teeth and I stare him down. I was getting really annoyed. "What do you want from me? I don't want to be your friend so leave me alone please?" I heard my voice trembled at that last word. I hated to show weakness but I just wanted to be left alone.

He watched me for a while and he lets me leave. I walk outside and was just about to head to the woods when I get stopped. "We were wondering when you were going to show your skank ass," Tracy said. I couldn't help but feel myself get angry. I get into her face.

"Why don't you get a life and leave me the fuck alone you dumb bitch!" I yelled in her face. I saw her take a step back. I wasn't in the mood for her games. I wanted to be alone to think. They were in the way.
