Thursday

I arrive at school, and stand in line since I'm early again. I pull my hood over my eyes, as I try to sleep for a while. Screw waking up so early just to make something that only takes 15 minutes. I feel something shake me, as I open my eyes and look to see what or who it was. Helena's pink-ish hair pops up into my view, as she smiles and waves as me.

"Good morning!" She smiled brightly. I exhale loudly, and reply.

"G'morning." I mutter, and go back to sleep. Around 12 seconds later, someone pushed me, as I slam face first into the wall due to me being unbalanced. I curse in my mind as something in my mind snaps.

"What the hell? Bella, what is wrong with you?" I yell. Bella's smile is replaced with a look of worry.

She doesn't care at all

"Sorry, just checking if you were actually sleeping." She giggles. A wave of anger hits me hard.

You're all alone

"There are other ways of doing it, y'know? Such as waving your hand in front of my face, or clapping in front of me." I snarl, as I turn away from her.

They won't come back for you.

A tiny lump forms in my throat. How easily I am made emotional makes me enraged at myself. Sometimes I just want to kill all emotions and live like a robot with no feelings.

You don't have to pretend like you're not hurt.

The bell rings, as everyone scurries to their designated lines. We wait for a while, since the intermediate teachers are always super slow at coming to pick up their students. The door closes to me (which is the right door)  swings open, as I catch it, and hold it open. Mr. Alexander comes out to direct each of the classes to go in. We are always the last ones so I wouldn't expect much. We head in at last, as we stuff our backpacks into our lockers, and head to class. Attendance goes by quickly, and we are all settled in, Bella is silently reading, and Margret is just talking with Val, which made me jealous for some reason. We start our work assignment, and I notice that my pen had run out of ink. I only kept one in my pencil case, so I went over to ask Margret for one.

"Hey look, Satan is coming over." Val smirks at me, as I position my pencil threatening to stab him with it. My heart beats louder in my ears when he smiled at me, as I get flustered by his action. I lower my pencil a bit, as he tilts his head in confusion. I sigh, as ask Margret for a pen. As per usual, she denies my plea, claiming that nearly all of her pens are gone. I go back to my desk, defeated, but Valerius runs up to me, and hands me a pen, before zooming off. I thank him and finish my assignment, hoping to get more than a 70%.

*Skip to 3:00. How nice. Wish that would happen sometimes.*

"Okay, so you guys have homework and more homework. Are we clear?" Mr. Alexander declares, as the whole class nods and slumps on their desk.

"Great, see you all tomorrow then. You are all dismissed." I start to put up my chair, as my head feels like it's being crushed by the weight of reality. Suddenly, everything feels wobbly and unsteady. My head feels like it's been plunged underwater, and has been shaken so many times that you begin to feel sick. My vision is covered by large black dots, as I slowly manage to get myself to my locker. Nobody is there waiting for me. Margret is still packing, since she's super slow and had a ton of stuff to take home every day. I quickly pack up as my legs wobble beneath me. The day ends as I take a shower and hop into my chair to check on my phone's feed. I noticed that Breezy is on, and that she's sent me a text just now.

frost milkshake: Hey there.

MiserableAtBest: Hello.

frosty milkshake: You okay?

MiserableAtBest: No.

frosty milkshake: ...

frosty milkshake: Who do I need to murder.

MiserableAtBest: You don't need to go that far.

frosty milkshake: Chael! You can't keep this facade up!

MiserableAtBest: I know. What other choice do I have though? You and I both know they won't stop.

frosty milkshake: Take me with you. Take me to your school tomorrow, and I'll teach them a lesson.

MiserableAtBest: You know I can't bring my phone to school.

frosty milkshake: I don't care. You are taking me, Chael Raider, and that's final.

MiserableAtBest: What am I going to tell my mom? She'll kill me if I take it without permission.

frosty milkshake: You can't let them do this to you! You know that in your mind, something or someone has to be put to a stop.

MiserableAtBest: I'm sorry that you have to see me complain to you every day.

frosty milkshake: I'm your, what you call "Long Lost Sister."  How could I be more bothered than worried for you?

MiserableAtBest: We don't even know each other.

frosty milkshake: That didn't stop you from being brothers  with Ezreal and Jack, did it? It didn't stop you from becoming friends with Azura, did it?

MiserableAtBest: Don't bring "him" up.

frosty milkshake: It has to be said! Chael, I know you had a history with "him," but you need to move past that or you'll be stuck there forever.

MiserableAtBest: They'll call you a bluff. Chances are, they'll even throw my phone on the floor and smash it to pieces.

frosty milkshake: They aren't that cruel.

MiserableAtBest: There's no changing your mind, is there?

frosty milkshake: Nope. 10 o'clock sharp. I'll be waiting.

I place my phone down and rub my eyes, yawning in the process. I receive two more messages a few second later. They're only asking how I'm doing. I ignore both, and go charge my phone.

You know they won't stop.

A/N: Hello, this is one of the shorter chapters, sorry about it. I'll try to publish more chapters though, so thank you all for your patience. See you all soon!
