I told Hunter off and that he needed to be nicer to Gabby and he said, "I am being nice"! And put up a funny face that he usually gives me.I went to the teacher and ask her to use the restroom and she said "Ok" so I headed for the restroom.When I got in there I looked around and no one was there so I leaned on the wall just to think or to clear my head.Im that type of guy that get overwhelmed easily.I'm usually not a type of guy that like to touch people or be in anyone's bubble.The problem with that is that everyone is in your bubble at lunch.
I don't remember what I thought about, I might have just gone to let my thoughts flow until it's recess time.Which it is at this point.So I went out and headed straight outside.Now the first things you see are balls flying around, American footballs and soccer balls(footballs). -He had to clarify that because he knows me ;)-There really isn't much to do outside.Some people would take out their phones others have a conversation or just kept to themselves.Being active is hard to do when you got almost nothing.So I went to my usual spot and sat down away from everybody.I took out my notebook just to make magic happen(doodling/drawing).Why do I spend time alone?Well...it depends.I just never know what to talk about or I'm too shy but, mostly its because I don't like the people around me making fun of me or look at me like am a weirdo.The more I look at people and try to talk to people the more I feel the need to run away and never come back.So I just end up being alone.Those days are done....Gabby came by and started talking to me(one of those days it was in the gym for recess).She was like, "Hey.....Nick what's up"???I knew right away something was wrong and tried to ask her but, I do not know how to.... -You thought I was just like all the other girls and fair enough really.-I walked to the gym with Sam but something felt off "Are you okay Sam?" I asked as he turned to me and said, "Gabby I really just want space and so like can you leave me alone!?" I was shocked and a bit hurt I thought he was the really good mate of mine. "Yeah okay, fine bye!" I yelled, this is when it kicked off. "You know what just leave Gabby, you're annoying as fuck!" Sam snapped at me. I felt betrayed as he walked off to another girl,a girl that would cause me loads of shit later. I walked up the bleachers and started to tear up and I wiped my face and went to see Nick who was in the corner of the bleachers not talking to anyone just drawing. "Hey, Nick what's up?" I put on a fake bubbly happy personality. I knew he could see right through me but he didn't say anything. "Is that Markiplier?" I said as I must have got his attention because then he looked up at me and actually talked. "Yeah, You know him!?" He said excitedly. I smiled because I loved YouTubers. "Yes! I actually watch a lot of youtube." I said feeling a bit better I knew from then that we would end up being best friends. "How's your arm?" he just looked down at the bandage and said "It's fine" I sort of assumed Nick was shy and didn't talk to loads of people so I tried coaxing him out of his shell he had made for himself.
