Chapter 2:
I. Want. To. Die
I glared at the back of her ponytail as she walked ahead of me talking about god-knows-what. I've never felt an urge so strong to shoot another person and myself at the same time.
"...Ha! you should have been there Ian wright I'm sure you would..." I continued to tune her out to keep my sanity intact.
Come to think of it, her throat would look pretty good with my hands wrapped around it. Chocking her to death.
"...There was also that one time when Jenny Williams..."
Never in my life have I heard a human being talk as much as she did. When will she run out of breathe and suffocate?
"...It was so full of chocolate I swear I almost died! That was the best cookie I've ever had..."
My sanity was hanging on a piece of thread at this point. Her squeaky,high-pitched voice makes it even harder to tune her out. It was just so... Annoying.
"...and don't get me started on Mrs .Johnson! Oh. My. God. She could blow down the three little piggies house if she wanted to, with that huff and puff of hers..."
Jail isn't worth it. Jail isn't worth it. Jail isn't worth it.
"...The gym has got to be the best place in this school. Nothing like the smell of sweat, tears and blood all in one room..."
Yes it is.
"...Yeah and that's why- Hey!" Her shrill voice getting louder than usual is what snapped me out of my daze to realize that I just pushed her against a row of lockers with a hand against her mouth to stop her from talking and the other above her head to support my weight.
"You talk way too damn much!" I snapped "So please do me a favor and shut up"
She didn't even flinch at my harsh tone. Instead she stared up at me with the same unfocused look in her eyes. Why were they so... empty? She seemed to realize that I was staring at her eyes a little longer than usual and quickly put a hand on my chest to shove me away from her.
She shoved me with quite unexpected force that I stumbled backwards and would have fallen over if i hadn't caught my balance last second. I looked back up at her in surprise and she stared right back at me. It may have been just my eyes playing a trick on me but I could have sworn for a second there she seemed almost panicked, but why?
Just as I started to believe it wasn't actually a trick she then gave me a full blown out smile that erased all previous thoughts from my mind. I almost rolled my eyes. This airhead really didn't have any other emotion.
"I wasn't getting on your nerves was I?" she smiled sheepishly while rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly. She sighed while slouching forwards in a defeated manner "Well darn it" She said.
She then stood upright again and bowed jokingly "I sincerely apologize Ian Wright, I've been told many times I need to get myself a filter but I just can't help it sometimes" She laughed slightly "I couldn't just let you run off into the wild that is Green Wood High School without knowing the basics of who you're gonna have to deal with! Think about it this way, I'm helping you make friends much quicker now" she ended her long speech by smiling as if she's just saved me from a dangerous animal about to attack me.
"Well, what if I told you I didn't want to make friends?" I questioned her calmly, trying to control the rage that was building up inside me. I slowly walked towards her
She looked bewildered as if she had never heard of such a thing "B-but who wouldn't want friends? People who you could have fun with, go to parties with and be there support each other-"
