They don't know me

But then again, who really knows anyone in this world.

I'm flying.

Flying over everyone who has ever done me wrong as they shrink in fear beneath me.

Maybe next time they won't talk to me.

Maya's POV:

My eyes snap open, bringing me back the the horrible world I call home.

Sleeping is really the only time I enjoy myself, as there is nothing good in real life.

I rub the sleep out of my eyes and get up to turn off my alarm.

I walk over to my dresser and pull out a pair of black jeans and a white sweater. I'm not much for a lot of colour.

I brush my teeth and wash my face, not bothering to fix my hair knowing that it will eventually get messed up anyways.

I walk downstairs contemplating whether or not I should take my pills.

They gave me them after the crash. They say I need them to get better, but I don't see a problem with how I am right now.

My brother and I survived. I live with him now, but he's so messed up on drugs he couldn't think to save his life.

I sigh and give in, knowing that I'm bound to end up in some sort of trouble if they find out I'm not taking them.

I walk over to the door, grab my bag, and walk out of the door.

The trip to school is pretty long but even the cold winter morning is better than sitting at home with my thoughts.

I look around at the trees that haven't been cut down yet, smiling because the world hasn't completely been ruined yet.

I look at my breath and laugh at the thought of being a dragon. I wish I were. Maybe then people will be nicer to me.

I make it to school just in time for the doors to open. I walk straight to my locker ignoring the whispers as I pass everyone.

I put all my stuff I don't need away and walk into my class. I sit at my usual seat in the back.

I get out my sketch book and start drawing. I draw many tiny dots which takes a while. There is no reason to the drawing, it's just there.

I snap back into reality when I realize the teacher is calling me and everyone is staring at me.

"Oh um yes?" I look up at her "I was asking if you had your homework" I nod and hand in the sheet I was giving the day before.

I go back to drawing.
"What are you doing. Obviously nothing special." I mumble to myself catching some peoples attention, but not before they went back to whatever they were doing.

"I could just leave right now. No not yet. Yes right now just get it over with." My eye starts to twitch with the war going on in my head.

"STOP!" I slam my fist on the table, getting up.

Everyone turns their attention back to me. "Sit down freak!" A kid yells at me. I look at him "you're the first." I say before running out of the building and back to my house.

Once I'm there I walk to my room. "You're so stupid. So so stupid why would you do that."

I wanted to make it through the day but it looks like that can't happen anymore.

I sigh and walk over to grasp a pen and some paper. I start writing and I know.

Its time.
