She nervously looks over at her.
She wondered if they would ever be close.
Her reputation was a shadow, it went over everything she'd ever done, and it didn't feel possible to become close with the person she had always held high.
She tried not to stare.
Maybe.
It curled it's wispy talons over her mind
Maybe.
A note.
A note in her locker.
Anonymous.
|
At home.
A pencil.
A desk.
A paper
and one aching heart.
she knew what she felt
but how to express it into a letter
She started it with this:
" you don't know me "
" but you, "
"you have made"
"the biggest difference "
And continued from there.
Once she was finished, she wondered how she would get it to her locker.
|
At school.
A locker.
A note.
An empty hallway,
and one indecisive heart.
She took a deep breath, drawing in enough foolish courage
And pushed it through the ventholes of the locker.
she heard it fall.
she knew that was it.
no turning back.
|
At school.
A classroom.
" i got a note in my locker "
she paused.
her face flushed
into a deep red color
and eyes shaking, knew more than one
would read it
as if reading her mind
even
anonymously.
She took a deep breath, drawing in enough foolish courage.
" Locker 201 "
they read.
|
The next day.
A note
in her own locker.
She stared at it,
hauntingly staring back at her
as if teasing the very thought of knowing what it held.
She quickly snatched it up and ran out of the hallway.
|
At home
a desk
a note
and shaking hands.
She took a deep breath, drawing in enough foolish courage
and
unfolded it.
reading it
realizing
that it is not from who the original note was sent to.
it was "a friend of hers"
She read it.
she was nervous.
they said they were "intrigued"
"intrigued"
"Locker 304"
She wrote.
she wrote only,
" i am not who you think i am. "
and quickly folded it up.
|
Fwoosh.
Down it went into "a friend of hers" locker.
She sighed and walked out of the hallway.
4 days later.
"I
do
know
who
you
are."
The note,
tugs her away
tugs her downward.
farther downward
but never reaching the bottom.
" Chase
doesn't
like
fags. "
Her hands fell to her sides.
She tried to breath
she really tried
but
nothing
would
make her
b r e a t h
The next class
She knew who Locker 304 was.
She was filled
filled with
rage
and hate
and a feeling
of absolute fire
But really
she knew what she said was just as true as always.
" no one likes fags. "
And nothing could bring her to meet her gaze.
Meet the gaze
of everyone.
they told
everyone.
And now,
I'm a creep.
