Hunter made me go to school today if I wanted to go to the Twenty One Pilots concert. I hate him.
No I don't
I literally didn't even miss anything. I'm sitting here in third period and we are aloud to have free time. I'm surprised I don't even have to do work, easy teachers I guess. All I did on free time was talk to Logan. All the sudden he's acting like my best friend, but I won't complain since I'm basically a huge loner in this school. "So, I forgot to ask you. Where have you been the last week?" He asks laughing.
"One of my friends is in town and I didn't want to lose time with him. He's staying here for two months" I replied. I'm not going to mention that it's Hunter, he would think I'm crazy.
"Oh. So it's a he?" He asked wiggling his eyebrows playfully. I just nodded my head and gave him a playfully disgusted look in return. "Where is he from?" He asked another question. I want to avoid the subject, but I guess that's not happening.
"Florida" I replied simply. This is making me feel uncomfortable for some reason. I wish this wasn't a free period.
"Is he cute?" He said acting all girlish.
"Are you gay?" I laugh
"No! I just want to know if you have a new boyfriend or something!" He says with hands in the air.
"Whatever you say" I shake my head chuckling. "He got me Twenty One Pilots tickets though"
"Well I guess he's a keeper!" Logan laughed. We laugh too much, I swear. Gladly, he brings up another subject about an Anime I can't remember the name of. I've never had the liking of Anime. (A/N I actually love Anime in real life) Before I knew it, the bell rang for next period.
"See ya later Aaron" he waved and walked out.
"Bye boy!" I yell through the annoying high schoolers separating me from him.
*Skip until lunch*
I get my lunch after the longest line ever and sit at an empty table. I don't understand how this table is empty because there are so many kids. Maybe it's got like the cheese touch kind of crap going on with it, no wonder people avoid me. I see Logan, but he sits with Lexi and completely ignored me. Whatever. It's weird though, last time I checked, he hated her. She cakes her face with makeup and giggles way too much. You can't say I do the same thing, I actually have a real laugh. It's ugly too. She's dating Alex which I remember he said she had an obsession with Hunter when he took my phone. I'll be sure to keep him away from her for his own safety.
I just start eating and all the sudden someone yanks on my arm and pulls me out the door. I can't even see this kid, but they've got a pretty strong grip, I may have a bruise later. We get to an empty hall and I get slammed against the lockers. I look at this muscular human being and I'm instantly worried. Alex.
"So, who is this new boyfriend of yours?" He says pushing on my collarbone. Why does everyone mentioning Hunter seem to think he's my boyfriend?
"He's not my boyfriend" I say trying not to show him the pain he's causing me. The pain he is causing is going through my whole body, just like it did when I hugged Hunter. "Why do you care anyways?" I ask quietly, seeming I can't speak loudly because of his pushing.
"I saw you with him a week ago! Why does he even want to be with you?! I asked the same question to Logan and got him on our side! He agrees you're worthless, now it's time for that Hunter kid to realize it too!" He yells. I don't know why this is needed, but it hurts so much I can't really move. He just gets a tighter grip by the second and I couldn't help but to start crying.
Alex was ripped off of me, but I could barely even open my eyes. I was so scared right now and I don't know why. "Don't touch her! Don't lay a hand on her! Stop talking your bullcrap to her! She's the opposite of everything you say!" I hear a familiar voice yell. It was Logan. I open my eyes and saw Logan on top of Alex punching him. I thought Logan thought I was worthless?
"Logan!" I get the sudden ability to move and yell. I push him off of Alex. I hate seeing people get hurt, even if they hurt me. "It's fine!" I yell, why am I getting mad at Logan? I feel like my body is speaking for me.
"YOU DON'T DESERVE TO GET HURT! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AND WORTH EVERYTHING! HE NEEDS TO SEE THAT! HE WAS LYING! THEY FORCED ME TO SIT WITH THEM!" He yelled back, but I think his yelling and anger was directed to the vulnerable Alex laying on the hard floor. I didn't know what to do, I ran outside and sat on a patch of grass near a tree. I just cried. When I cry, I let everything else I wanted to cry about out. I just hold it in and when I can't hold it anymore, I let it all go like a waterfall.
