The Nobody

Chapter 3

I look at him and when I leave class that's when he follows me and grabs my hand. I pull it away and I look at him and that's when I break. I started to cry. He looked shocked on how I reacted he lets my hand go. I run off and goes back to the tree house.

*Andy's point of view*

I wanted to run after her. But when I saw her crying. I couldn't help but stay in one place. I knew what she was going through. I followed her home. I couldn't help myself I had to see what caused her to be what everyone calls her. The Nobody no one seems to give her the time of day.

I saw her parents hit her and I saw her run away I followed her and saw her climb the tree house. I wanted to go up there but I don't I head home. I go to sleep and wake up the next day I wake up too early it's still dark out. I walk to the tree house and I climb up it and I see her sleeping.

I was about to wake her up when I see her drawing book. I go over to it and picks it up and looks through it. I see that there are a lot of pictures of fallen angels of a girl crying as her wings get torn. I also see that there is a girl through a mirror.

It looks like she's trying to get inside the mirror but it won't let her. Then you see her other reflection and she's smiling while the other one is crying. Then I hear her stir. I put back her drawing book and I climb down the tree house and I hide.

I see her climb down and runs. I wait for a while letting her run off. After waiting for a bit I run trying not to be late to class. Once I get there I see her leave the bathroom. I wanted to go over to her but I didn't want to chance it. I just went to class.

But once class was over with that's when I decided to grab her hand and stop her from running. She seems to stop but when she turned around and faced me. I saw how vulnerable she was and she started to cry.

I just knew that I wanted and needed to save her. I was once her and I know how it feels to have no one pay attention to you as you scream for help. When no one hears you screaming on the inside wanting to let it out to be heard. That's when I decided to follow her anyways.

I get to the tree house and I climb up it and I see her bending over something. Something told me that it wasn't a good thing. I walk over to her and that's when I see the blade. I grab it from her cutting my finger. But I don't notice it. "What are you trying to do?" I asked her.

I already knew her answer I just wanted to hear it. That's when she breaks down and cries more. "I want it all to end! I'm sick of being alive! I just want to be happy again! This is the only way to end this!" She shouts at me.

I don't say anything I pull her to me holding her. She starts to struggle in my arms but I keep a hold of her until she finally stops moving. That's when she starts to cling to me and breaks down crying more. I don't let her go I let her cry it all out. After a while she finally calms down.

Once she was calmed she tried to pull out of my arms again. This time I let her go and I hand her my shirt so she can wipe her face. Once she cleans herself up. She blushes and doesn't say anything. "Are you feeling any better?" I asked her. She doesn't say anything for a bit.

"I don't think I will ever feel better," she says too low. I end up catching it anyways. "Just let me help you please. I used to be just like you until I met my friend Josh. He helped me out and made me who I am today. Let me be the one to help you," I plead with her.

She shakes her head and was about to get up. But I stop her by grabbing her hand. "Ok can we at least make a deal? Just hear me out," I said. I watch her think it over. I was half expecting her to pull away. But then I see her looking at me. She nods her head sitting back down facing me.

I couldn't help but smile a little. I sit in front of her. "If I can't help you out in a month then I promise to leave you alone and never bother you again. Just please give me one month to show you that you can be somebody what do you say?" I asked her. She just looks at me.

I was just about to get up and leave when she stops me. "Ok fine but you only get one month. If you can't help me then leave my life. I'm willing to take that chance. But you only get one shot at this. So make it count," she says. I couldn't help but smile big. "That's a promise," I say.

*Ruby's point of view*

I was tempted to curse him out but something about him makes me stop and not say anything. I was curious on what he was going to do to prove to me I'm someone. So I was willing to do this. I mean what would one month hurt? I asked myself.

I watched him for a while and then I get up. He looks up at me. "Where are you going?" He asked me. "I'm going to go home and get stuff I'm going to try to find me a place to stay," I said. That's when he gets up too and looks at me. "You can stay with me," he said.

My eyes widen in shock. "Won't your parents be mad?" I asked him. He laughs shaking his head at me. "I live by myself I don't live with my parents," he says. I couldn't help but feel a little jealous of that. I think it over. "Ok sounds good then I hope you have another bedroom," I said.

He chuckles. "Oh I do you will be able to have your own room don't worry," he said. I climb down and I run to my house. I go into the house and runs to my room. I pack up my stuff and I run out making sure to not have the chance to stop and deal with my parents.

I go back to the tree house and I see that Andy is still there. "Ready to go now?" He asked me. I nodded my head and he smiled we headed to his place. I couldn't help but be impressed when I see it.

It was huge at least two stories! I look at him in shock. "So why are you living in this huge place? What do your parents  do for a living?" I asked him. I couldn't help but be curious about what his parents do. "My parents left it for me in their will along with making sure I was taken cared of for life," he says.

I looked at him. "You say you live alone?" I asked. "Yes I do though people come in and clean it. But mostly it's just me living here," he said. I couldn't help but frown then I shake my head. There was no time to feel bad for him.

I shouldn't even be feeling that way. I shouldn't like him at all. I get mad at myself a little. Pretty soon we heads up the stairs and he lets us inside. I couldn't help but feel my eyes widen even bigger. I mean he had a lot of expensive classy shit. But I could see a little of him in this place.

Including when he had huge posters of bands hanging on the walls. I would have done the same thing.
