"I don't want to see your face here ever again." Jackson said. He was my best friend. But all of a sudden he started changing. He wasn't his old self. He started hanging out with the popular kids. And he told me I was worthless and ugly. Those words hurts me more than the severe bullying I had in the second grade. Those words hurts more because it was coming from my one friend, Jackson.

A tear or two escaped my eyes, though I was trying to hold it in. I didn't want anyone to see me crying like this, because it's emberrassing and because I'm ugly. My head was hurting. My vision became blurry because of all the tears that were accumulated in my eyes. And that's when suddenly, I bumped into someone, I fell.

The fall forced me to blink my eyes, letting free of all the tears who couldn't hold back any longer. "Are you ok, are you hurt? Did I hurt you? Why are you crying? Is it because of me? Please tell me it is not because of me. Are you sick?" A voice said. That voice... It seemed so worried. It felt good to have someone worry about me. So I looked up to see who it was. Oh, I know him. He is in my class, but I never talked to him. He seems to cool for me. He wouldn't like to be my friend.

I got up. "I'm ok. Really." I said, wiping the tears from my eyes, and giving him a smile to show that I'm really fine.

"Hmm. Since you feel a bit down, and I am bored, how about we eat lunch, I'll treat you something. You didn't eat right? No it doesn't matter, you're eating no matter what. Let's go." The guy told me. Without letting me comment, he grabbed my wrist and dragged me outside. I don't care where we were going, or who he was. I'm with you.
