Ruby walked towards her school, ready to be hated by everyone. She didn't know why they hated her, but they did. Her parents did too. Everyone did. Well, at least now her parents won't bother her anymore...
"Oh, look. It's the freak!" Some blonde girl shouted in Ruby's direction. Ruby glared at her, and the blonde and her group of girls quickly walked away in the other direction.
"Get a life, you psychos..." Ruby muttered under her breath. Her short brown hair waved around in the wind, hiding her scar on her right cheek from the previous night. Not like anyone would notice. No one ever would get close to her. In their eyes, she wasn't normal. "Hah... Maybe they're right..." She mumbled to herself.
When Ruby walked into her morning class, everyone looked at her. More like stared at her. Their eyes were filled with hatred. Ruby slowly walked over to her desk, dragging her bag on the floor behind her as she did so.
"Now, class. We have a new student," The teacher said.
'Great, another person to hate me...' Ruby thought.
"Her name is Scarlet, so please be nice to her. She's been through a hard time. How about she sits next to you, Ruby? You seem quite lonely today." The class erupted in laughter. Ruby just looked down at her hands. She then felt something move beside her.
"Hey, I'm Scarlet, and you're Ruby, right?" Ruby looked up and saw a girl with red hair and deep blue eyes beside her with her hand out. Ruby carefully reached her hand out, making sure none of her scars were showing. The two girls shook hands, and Scarlet smiled at Ruby.
"Hey, don't worry. I don't bite," She giggled. Ruby looked into those deep, blue eyes, whispered a quiet 'okay', and showed a little smile.
"See, everything gets better once you smile!"
'Hah, yeah, totally. Corpses do too?' Ruby thought, looking down at her hands once again.
"You should probably stay away from me..." Ruby mumbled. "Please, just stay away from me... I just don't want to hurt you..."
"Huh? No way! You're the first person I've talked to in a long time, there's no way I'll abondon a friend!"
Friend, huh?
Yeah. Totally. Friend.
"Please... Don't leave me....."
