Two Of A Kind

Phil: One

Dear Emo Coffee eyes,

Hello, first off I'd like to say you picked an odd code name, though, I did too. So who am to to judge?

I think being pen pals is going to be super fun! Even though email doesn't require a pen. I guess it's more like type pals, or email pals, or online pals. But it doesn't matter.

A few things about me: I really love lions! They are my favorite animal! I like anime, I like cool bands like FOB, and Muse, and P!ATD, and more. I never wear matching socks, and I love coffee.

I don't think any of those facts are important, but I figured random facts would be a good way to get to know me.

Until next time,

~Bubbly blue eyes

-----------------

I log off of my laptop after sending the email. It's an English assignment, everyone in my year had to get assigned a pen pal and they have to email each other. Everyone got to pick code name that were something to describe you, then a trait about you.

I picked Bubbly Blue Eyes. Bubbly because I find myself to be a relatively happy person, and try to always stay upbeat. Blue eyes is self explanatory; i have blue eyes. It seemed Emo Coffee Eyes had a similar idea to me.

We have to keep being their pen pals without knowing who they are for half the year, and then write an essay about our experience.

I'd have to assume some pen pals are going to share their identity with each other, but I think that just ruins the fun in everything. Who knows what can happen?

I move my laptop off of me, and set it on my desk. Looking at my clock I see I have 30 minutes to get to school.

I put on my shoes and grab my coat, heading downstairs where my family was waiting with breakfast.

"Good morning, Phil. I made you some toast!" My mum smiles, handing me some breakfast.

"Thanks, mum! I'm off to school now, see ya" she nods in acknowledgment whilst buttering my brothers piece of toast.

I walk outside, and the cold air instantly hit. I think about going back inside to grab a different coat, but decide against it. Even though it's a bit of a long walk. I still think I'll make it in time.

When I finally make it to the school, I feel like my fingers are going to freeze off. I quickly make my way inside, and rush to my locker.

Today is a lucky day, no one seems to notice me as I quickly make it to the safety of the schools library. Some days when I'm not so lucky I see Dan. I'm pretty sure Dans only goal in life is to ruin my life.

He's cool, he's popular, he has everyone wrapped around his finger. Any opinion he has, everyone has. That's why everyone hates me.

The days that I'm not as lucky, if he sees me in the morning, he and everyone else around him yell gay slurs and other hurtful terms my way. They wouldn't like it if the roles were reversed.

But Dan always gets anything, he lays on the charm so much that he's even favored by the staff, and never gets in trouble. The day Dan is nice to someone like me in the day pigs fly.

I guess that's why im so excited about the English pen pals project, someone has to be my friend. It's for a grade, they have to talk to me for half a school year, and they don't even know it's me.

Besides, if they did know it was me, they wouldn't be pleased.
