Penelope

The New Student

Hi I'm Penelope. I go to Greensward High School and it really sucks! I get bullied A LOT! but there is nothing I can really do but sit, lie and stand there. When you have no friends to back you up all you ever can do is sit,
lie, or stand there.

For example today I was watching a movie in first period and when the only thing your teacher cares about is beating her husband on candy crush she doesn't notice that people are hitting, kicking and throwing paper at me. I'm kind of used to it now. I can barely feel the pain. I'm sorry that is a complete lie it hurts sooo bad sometimes I just want to run away.

Yesterday I actually got pushed against the lockers and cut my face that hurt. I heard there is a new student in class today I don't see him or her yet, but I hope he or she is not like the others. Maybe they'll be my friend, probably not.

Oh yeah it's seventh period now it's already been 15 mins since class started I should probably pay attention I do suck at math but why do that when I can write in my new notebook. this is the only class where I don't get picked on cause I sit far away from everyone. the only thing that can scare me In this class is my teachers stupid door it's so rusty it sounds Like nails on a chalkboard when it opens and closes. oh hear it goes ugh someone just opened the door.Wait its the new GUY he looks nice actually. Fire Red hair, black skin tight leather pants, a band tee with a black jacket, and black boots. this is definitely not a person who hurts someone else. I wonder what his name is......

The new guys p.o.v.

When I first walked in the classroom there were a bunch of random kids in the front and this one girl in the back, which is weird because usually it's one girl in the front and a bunch of people in the back. I was thinking I could sit in the front like every one else, or I could sit near the girl with dark black hair and band tee with fire red pants and a scar on her face.

I sat right next to the girl, so I'm sitting here Writing and she's sitting over there Writing I got a glance at the top of her paper it looks like it say peanut or Penelope I guess Penelope is her name, or she really likes peanuts. I look up and actually look at her and see her glance at me so I give her a half smile and she looked up and back Down without a reaction. She did look at me she just didn't say or do any thing. I tapped her on the shoulder to say hey she spoke finally she asked me what's your name I answered Gerard, Gerard Way. She looked back down and said Penelope Cohllin. That's a beautiful name, it fits her too.

I look up at the teacher for a second and she said okay now talk to your elbow partner about what we talked about so I scoot my desk closer to Penelope and she looked at me frightened I said what did she talk about and she answered with I have no clue. I begin to just ask questions like where's the bus area and what's her favorite bands and does she know anyone and her answers were, just follow me, green day, BVB, SWS, and a lot more then said and nope no friends. I didn't know what to say so I just stopped talking and started writing. Her voice is beautiful I wonder if she sings? I'm not going to ask her that though that would be really creepy can you imagine hey girl I met 10 mins ago can you sing. No that is too awkward i'll just wait a week or two then ask.

I should throw a party and invite her and some other of course. It will be at my house I'll order some pizza and my band will play the music but she has to come.

Why is he asking me so many questions, why does he have to ride my buss, and why does he have to sit next to me! I mean he is nice looking but I'm sitting alone on purpose! This was my only class with alone time! This is going to be a bad semester.

Sometimes I just want to go home take a shower and lay on my bed with my cat and write more stories or maybe songs I love writing songs I don't sing them though. I'm tired I hate being here. I wish I had my own car that way I don't have to ride the bus I'm getting one as soon as I get 59 more dollars I already have 6,741 I'm so close yayyy! My parents told me I could get a car when I had enough money for one, getting a car will also save me from getting hit by people on the way home. I wonder if Gerard has ever been bullied I see a scar on his wrist but I don't know if it from bulling or cutting I'm starting to sound like I care ugh. I need to stop I've never thought about someone this much it's making me sick. Why can't I stop thinking about this guy I mean I know I don't like him but maybe he won't be that bad as a friend.
