Something Strange (Escape The Fate)

Something Off

it had been a week since Bryan moved here, and already the girls were dying to be with him, it usually took a month. I can't seem to shake this feeling that I have. I don't know how to explain it, but it feels like a PULL to Bryan, but, I don't know how to get rid of it. OH-WELL I have to get through today without getting myself killed by everyone. I walk in the front door and the first thing I see is every one staring at me, do I have something on me?

     I check myself really fast to see if I have cereal on me.....no....that's not it. Seeming as there is nothing wrong with me, I pass everyone and just head straight to my locker. What I saw there almost made me run straight home.

He was standing there, at my locker. Bryan Money, was standing at my locker.......WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!

   I quickly pushed passed people and walked up to him.

"Um excuse me.." he stopped and looked at me.

"Yeah, can I help you?" he smiled at me like he expected me to just push him like one of his little friends.

"Um, your...in front of...my locker." I didn't understand why he was doing this to me, he knows it's my locker and he knows everyone hates me.

"Oh yeah! Sorry I've actually been waiting for you." he slowly moved out of the way of my locker and watched as I opened it.

"Why are you waiting for me?" I took my U.S. History book out and closed my locker.

"Well I was kinda wondering if you could help me with physics, you see, I'm kinda failing, and I heard from, the teacher that you are one of her best students." I stopped and starred at him for about a minute before the bell rang to go to to class.

"Oh no I'm late!" he looked at me in confusion.

"What do you mean late? That was the first bell."

"First bell for everyone else is last bell for me." I took off running to class before I gathered anymore attention to myself by standing next to him.

    I made to class to see that my seat in the front of the room is empty, I would sit in the back, but that is no longer my seat. I sit down and get a pencil and my journal out. only to see that someone sits down next to me... I look up and see Bryan sitting there... this boy is trying to get me killed.

"so you never did answer me Violet."

"..." I couldn't even speak, I was scared because the cheerleaders were walking in the room, and I REALLY don't feel like dyeing today.

"Bryan? What are you doing sitting next to freak girl? "

"Oh, I was asking if she could possibly tutor me in physics."

"Oh, well I can help you with that, I'm making an 83 in there! "

"Yeah, but Violet is makeing a 98 and my mom says if I don't make a 90 or above, she's going to take my guitar away."

I had a small hope that he would take lessons from her but now that he said that I am totally screwed.

I went threw the whole class with an tremendous amount of anxiety in me. when the bell rang I quickly gathered my things and flew out the door and to my locker again.

"Hey Violet, you never did answer me girl!" He was at my locker right after I got there. He had a million dollar smile and it KILLED me.

"Listen, I don't want to be a bitch or even sound like one, because that is really not me, but I don't think I can tutor you because my life is already a living hell and you following me around everywhere is not making it any better, and I'm pretty sure you already know everyone hates me as it is. So if you would please excuse me I have to go." I didn't even look at him the whole time I said it, I stayed looking down and I talked faster than usual only so I could leave quickly, but obviously not fast enough. he grabbed me by my arm and dragged me down the hallway and out the door that leads to the student parking lot.

"Hey, let me go." he dragged me to this old beat up red '64 Chevy truck. he opened the drivers side and picked me up and put me in, then he got in and turned towards me.

"Violet, I know your life is hell, I see the way everyone treats you and the way they all look at you and everything, but that tells me absolutely NOTHING about you personally, and that's what I want to know, is you. I don't care about them, Violet, I want you to tutor me, so I can get to know you. Violet, I like you too much to not have never talked to you before, and I want to know why this is. Violet, PLEASE, let me see the real you." I just starred at him while holding my books close to me, what did he just say to me? He likes me? What?!?

"Bryan, I'm sorry, but I just can't"

"I didn't want to have to do this Violet." I gave him a puzzled look, then he grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me close to him and pushed his lips against mine, I was so scarred I didn't even move, I didn't kiss back or anything. I just sat there.

"Well Violet?"

"ARE YOU TRYING TO GET ME KILLED?!?! IF YOU REALLY LIKE ME LIKE YOU SAY YOU DID, YOU WOULD LEAVE ME ALONE!" I got out of his car and didn't even think about it and ran home, I had to call Serenity, even though she's supposed to be sick today.
