The Secret Under My Skin

If people knew the real me, I don't know what I would do. I'm not your average teenage girl. There are a few secrets under my skin. No, I know what your thinking, everyone has secrets. Yes, that's true. But not like mine. No one can know, if they did, it would only put them in danger. I can't do that to the people I love. They don't deserve that. No one can ever know the true me.

When I turned 15 was when I found out I was different. Not like everyone else. At first I ignored it, not wanting to be any different. Although, no matter how hard I tried to act normal, I knew my parents knew something was wrong or different. Though they never said anything. No one has caught on in the last two years. As I am now 17, but I don't ignore it anymore. I'm still careful, but when I feel restless, I have no choice but to leave and get a fix.

My best friends always teases me about being single. Especially one friend in particular. She enjoys calling me a unicorn. Her word for virgin. You get the connection. Anyway, what none of them realize, is that I can't just date anyone. It feels so wrong. Like the other part of me is waiting and looking for someone with my same secret. But I don't think about it too much, I don't care enough too.

So here's the thing, I have this secret that I must keep from everyone. That includes the nosiest person I know. When she thinks something's up, she will stop at nothing to figure out what it is. And having a secret like this, it's not as easy as it seems to hide if from her. Maybe one say she'll find out, but that won't happen for a long time.

Or so I thought..
