Marrisa
'Blue or pink? Maybe black?'
I thought to myself while trying to pick a shirt to wear before I ended up being late on my first day. I threw on the black shirt with some jeans and converse, I rolled my pants up at the bottom them grabbed my bag heading downstairs. I wasn't surprised to see the kitchen empty, I made a toaster strudel and grabbed a bottle of orange juice. On my way to the bus stop I put my headphones in finishing off my food, as I waited at the bus stop with a few others I got a text message from my mom.
'Be home late dont wait up'
I didn't reply mainly because I didn't care, now before you think Im some stereotypical depressed teenage girl who hates everything you're wrong. I just have an odd way of expressing happy emotions to people that make me uncomfortable. Like my parents, or strangers its nothing personal except my parents of course.
The bus pulled up, kids piled on with excitement as I slowly walked up the steps and was faced with searching for a seat. I plopped down in an empty seat in the back thank God, I was online looking at clothes I knew I couldn't afford but it wouldn't hurt to browse. We came to another stop picking up a few more kids by this time the bus was full of loud chatter and restless freshmen eager to get there already. As the kids got on I noticed I was gonna have to share a seat, I seen a boy walking towards me. His head was low and voice soft and quiet,
"Um... Is this seat taken?" I gave him an odd awkward smile while shaking my head. He sat down slowly and kept his head down not saying a word to me. I took this opportunity to try and take in his appearance, He had pale skin with the blackest hair I've ever seen, You can look at this and say your typical "emo boy".
He of course had on all black with black vans jacket, he smelled amazing, I snuck a whiff like the creep I am. I then gave my attention to the window looking at the scenery, it was the start of fall so we had lots of rain coming in. It started to lightly sprinkle against the windows, I was fine with the fact the bus had no type of heat coming through but I felt as if it were only me because of all the complaints and teeth chattering.
As we pulled up to school the bus grew louder and my mood went from acceptable to kill me now. As the bus came to a stop and the doors opened everyone piled off off to find friends, I waited for vamp to get up. As he got up his phone fell out his pocket, he was walking away pretty quickly stating how long his legs were, once we were off the bus I jogged up to him and tapped his shoulder.
He hissed through his teeth and flinched away from me. I was confused as to why he reacted that way, I barely touched him. But then again there are other ideas as to why. I didn't wana scare him, just give him his phone and walk away.
"Uhh you dropped this" He looked up from the ground and took the phone, his hands slid against mines, it was surprisingly soft and gentle.
"Thanks" he whispered and walked away. I headed in the other direction towards the back of the school, I pulled out a lighter and a blunt. Okay yes I smoke but not all the time, Its just the best possible way I can make it through stressful times. I inhaled a few puffs and put it out saving it for later, naturally Im a chill girl but I do have a temper at times and my attitude is still under construction. I looked at my schedule heading to my first class, it wasn't hard stating I've been going here for years.
I walked into Mr.Neenos class and found a seat in the back by the big window. It started to rain again as the class filled up with loud chatter, in a way it calmed me, today was gonna be easy I guess. It was around lunch and I was out before anyone in the class, Going to find an empty table in the cafeteria wasn't as bad because I was out earlier. No one sat with me at my table which I was grateful for, as the lunch room filled I grew more uncomfortable. I was about to get up and leave when I heard a quiet voice. "Um... Hey"
It was vamp with his head actually up and eyes wondering everywhere but mines, I gave a small weird smile. "Is it okay if I sit here?" He said so quietly I had to really strain myself to hear. I gestured him a seat which he gratefully took, I studied him for a moment. Watching him take out his lunch and slowly biting into the burrito that looked so juicy and good, Compared to my left over pizza but hey foods food.
There was an awkawrd silence between us until I decided to speak up, "So you got a name?" He looked nervous? "Its Victor... Sorry" he said slightly slumping into his chair. I let out a little chuckle "Nah you're fine, Im Marrisa the most over dramatic, annoying, loud mouth butt you'll ever meet in this life time" He let out a giggle? Okay now that was cute I can't lie. I was happy I could make him laugh or at least giggle, it seemed like he needed. We spent the whole lunch making small talk, it was weird but I didn't mind he was a cool guy. Lunch was over and we departed to the rest of our classes.

The last bell rang and to tell you I couldn't wait to get out of there would be an understatement. I was walking towards my bus when I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around to see Rochelle with the fakest smile on her face I've ever seen I did the same in return just mines had more sarcasm if you get me. "So haven't Cabrina around, any idea on where she is?" She mocked me with her her evil sarcasm. My fist balled up tightly as I tried to restrain the angry tears from pouring out my eyes, I put on my best smile and put my head up "I don't believe thats any of your fucking business" I said angrily.
She threw back a laugh. "You're right, She may be in a mental institution... You know how suicidal people are" I let out a low growl and pushed her away from me, I turned and headed for the buses once again. I plopped in the back near the window letting my tears silently fall, "Are you okay?" I jumped wiping my tears. It was only vamp, I sniffed "Yeah pft Im fine" my voice cracking at the end. On the way home the bus was loud but my mind was silent, I just wanted to sleep.
