Okay, so today I am doing kinda a vent chapter (yeah, it mostly happened to me. I invited people, but only my family members came. ;-;). So this one shall be about our little jester/cinnamon roll and it'll take place in the Knight's Academy. Hope you enjoy.

Lil Jestro's POV

I groaned as some kids began picking on me for handing out a bunch of birthday invitations.

"What's the point? Nobody cares enough to come, jester!"

"Why would anyone waste an hour of their life to go one of YOUR parties?! Loser!"

All of the comments were negative save for one or two. Clay and Macy. I sat in the back of the classroom, staring down at my other invitations. What's wrong with people? Do they not even care? Most likely not. Clay sat beside me and Macy sat on my other side.

I stood up and handed the teacher one of them. He looked at it and when he thought I wasn't looking, threw it in the rubbish bin. I handed one to Aaron and Axl. They nodded and said they'd try to come. I didn't even bother with asking Lance. He's too snotty and stuck up to come anyway. The answer would be no.

I had put one on every desk before all the other kids came back from lunch. But when they all got sat down, a collective groan swept across the room from the ones that received one. I picked up my textbook and doodled a bunch of depressing things like dark clouds and sad faces. Clay looked down at them.

"You know, clouds usually aren't that dark. They can be brighter." He erased the dark penciling I added. He drew a smiley face on the cloud and went back to doing his thing. I looked at the cloud drawing. It looks fricking creepy now.

Maybe clouds weren't meant to have faces for a purpose.

I continued thinking about my party. Why did I think it'd be a good idea? No one likes me at all. Some kid threw a paper airplane at me. I unfolded it and it was my birthday invitation, with a bunch of not-so-nice words added to it. It was signed by all of the kids. Nice, something to frame and put up on my wall.

After class, I went to Merlok's library. Ever since he started letting me go in there, I've been trying to make a point to learn more. But ever since I've been going there, there's this really weird talking book. He sometimes gives me good advice but the most of it is rubbish info. But instead of Clay, Macy, Aaron and Axl, he's kinda my only friend.

I sat down beside his little "book prison" and sighed out loud to get his attention. "Okay, kid, what's your problem now?" "Usual stuff. Why does everybody hate me?" "They're making it to where they have the pleasure of seeing you get all sad-faced over every little bad comment about you they make." "Yeah but who would do that? Why?" "That's just people now, kid."

"It's like they think I'm trying to give them a severed head or something. It's just an envelope." "Maybe they have papyrophobia." I was silent for a minute. "It means the fear of paper." "Oh. But what do I do? They'll keep bullying me if I don't do something." There was an awkward silence.

"Still unsure about the whole evil thing?" "I just don't know about that. I don't think it's the right approach." I got up and began reading spell books. "Well, if you ever change your mind, you know where I'll be." He smirked. Like I said, he's helpful sometimes.

Time Skip!

I was at home doing things for the party. The clock struck 2:00 PM. Time for guests to arrive, I guess. The time flew really fast. 3:00, 4:30, 6:45. It was 7:00 before I decided to just strike out. I was about to pull down a strand of streamers when I heard banging on the door. I almost had a heart attack. My first impression was the jerks decided to actually come just to rough me up. I slowly opened the door.

Clay, Macy, Axl, Aaron and Lance were standing there.

I opened the door and wiped my face on my sleeve. "W-what are you doing here?" I sniffed. "They forced me here.." Lance mumbled. Clay elbowed him in the chest. "OW! I-I mean, we heard you were hosting a party. So we decided to come."

My eyes almost popped out the sockets. "R-REALLY?!" "Yeah! You thought I'd miss your birthday party?" Clay pulled me to his side and ruffled my hair under my hat. "Okay enough with all the gross and boring sappy stuff! Let's PARTAAAAYYY!" Aaron screeched as he fist pumped. "Hehe. Well, um, come in."

I felt like bursting out in happy tears. This was the best. We played some fun games like Pin The Tail on The HoverHorse and charades. Lance sucked at them. He would always guess the wrongest of things. Mainly because he wouldn't pay attention, he just would text these random girls, become their boyfriend, and dump them in the same minute. Go figure.

Narration!

"You know this wasn't half bad of a party! You really know how to have fun parties, Jestro." Aaron said as he chugged a Mountain Dew. No reply. "Jestro? Did you hear me, little dude?" "Hey, where is he?" Everyone spent a few minutes searching for their jester friend but didn't find anything. Clay stopped and stared down at the floor.

"Guys, I found him." (NO, HE ISN'T DEAD, THAT WOULD BE A TERRIBLE WAY TO END IT!)

He was asleep on the floor, a huge happy grin on his face. Clay picked up his arms while Axl picked up his legs. They carried to his bed and laid him down on it. Clay pulled his blanket on him and patted his forehead. "Happy birthday, Jestro. Have a nice sleep." He exited the room and turned out the lights.

The next morning, Jestro woke up and found a note on his table.

Best party I've been to! -Aaron

Had a great time, you should do this more often! -Macy
The food was delicious. The party was great too! -Axl

Wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. Of course it didn't start until I walked in! -Lance

I told you most clouds don't have to be dark. The party was really great! -Clay

Jestro still didn't quite grasp Clay's cloud metaphors but he was still happy nonetheless. He kept that note and pinned it to the inside of his Knight's Academy binder.





Hello! Yeah, today I had a birthday party with my siblings. Nobody came except my family members, literally there were 12 people there, including my parents and siblings. Talk about embarrassing. But I got a Nintendo Switch with Splatoon 2 so, yeah boi!
