"Fuck" I mumble under my breath as I try to fix my mascara that I messed up. My eyeliner and mascara looks like a 6th grader did them. I just pull my medium normal length dirty blond hair into a bun. I slip on some dark jeans and a PTV shirt and walk out the door. Yay school. I walk towards my class and see my best friend Laura.

"Hey!" I say as I walk towards her quickly so no one looks. I look around to make sure I didn't catch any eyes.

"What's up?" I said

"Hey you know that new kid? Yeah he's cute." She said examining the room.

" Luke? Yeah he's different."

The bell rung informing us it was time for class. I walked to my bio class huffed and slouched in my chair. Yesterday was 'let's talk about the rules of the school that everyone has heard before but is mandatory' day and today is 'get to know your classmates' day. Great. I didn't want anything to do with a single soul in here. Except Luke. He was hunched in his seat staring down at his hands. After about 10 minutes I got annoyed with this silence between us.

"You know even though I said yesterday don't talk to me doesn't mean don't talk at all. I was having a pissy day......pissy year. I'm sorry and you don't have-"

"It's okay. " He chuckled out

"How do you like it here? Did you make any new friends?"

"Here? I hate it. Friends? Everyone hates me. Oh and I never got your name?" he huffed out slouching further back into his seat.

"Yeah this place is a shit hole no doubt. And the people suck. You see we're practically twins. And it's Lizzy" I giggled

"Yeah sort of. But I'm not a little bitch to people." He said laughing and lightly punching my arm.

"Okay okay you got me. But I'm the nicest bitch you will ever meet. You seem cool and we both need friends so here is my number. Text me or something."

"Wow. This is the first time someone actually tried to get to know me or hang out." he smiled, but this time it looked like he actually meant it.

To: Lizzy

The rest of the week was pretty normal. It was Friday thank god. when I got to school the first person I saw was Luke. He was sitting in a corner with his head in his hands. I saw some people pointing laughing and making jokes. God why where there people so fucking rude! I ran over and placed a hand on his back and crouched down.

"Hey Luke are you okay?"

He just nodded. But I knew he was lying. Everyone was still looking. I got up and looked at all of there faces.

"Well isn't it nice to be so goddamn perfect. Tell me about that life! I wanna know! You people sit here and laugh and make jokes. It makes me sick. How about you all go fuck yourselves."

I kneeled back down to Luke who had tears brimming his eyes.

"Awe Luke. Common lets leave I'll take you home. Or we can go to my place, anywhere but here." I said helping him up.

"How do you normally get home?" I asked in curiosity as he sat in the passenger seat of my car

"I usually walk. I don't have a car."

"Oh. Well here." I said handing him a tissue

"Thanks. For everything."

I gave him a reassuring smile and pulled out of the parking lot.

"We can go to my house. If that's okay. My moms on a business trip. I'm an only child and don't live with my dad." I spoke up

"Yeah. That's fine. If you don't mind asking where's your dad?"

"It's okay umm I really don't know, me and my mom moved when I was 7. We all kept contact pretty good until I was about 13 he barley would call. By the time I hit 14 I would never hear from him. My parents officially split I got a stepmom. Met her once hated her. Sense then I rarely ever see him."

"Awe. I'm so sorry." He looked concerned.

"Yeah ha no don't be. He was a prick." I chuckled

"Oh."

The rest of the car ride was filled with pointless conversation. We where getting to know each other. Man did we have a lot in common. When we got to my house we walked in and sat on the couch. He looked at me

"Why did you help me?"

I was sort of shocked he asked but I just said "Well your my friend. Friends help each other. I couldn't watch you go through that."

"A friend. That's nice to hear. I have a friend."

After hours of talking and getting to know each other I didn't even realize it was 12:00 am.

"Wow I'm tired. Should I drive you home?"

"No it's late and your tired I don't want you getting in an accident. I'll walk."

"Oh hell no you're not walking home. What kind of friend do you think I am. You're spending the night."

"Oh okay." He chuckled looking taken aback by my response.

I showed him the bathroom and guest bedroom. Then walked to my room to sleep.

When I woke up I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and hair. I put my hair in a messy bun and kept my sweat pants and t-shirt on. I walked down stairs to make breakfast. I started cooking when I saw Luke's tall figure standing there. I dropped my pan

"OH MY GOSH LUKE! You scared me!" I said cleaning up the mess I made

"Whoops." He said laughing hysterically

"Haha very funny. Now how many pancakes you want hoe." I said laughing as he helped me clean up my mess.

"3 please" he said with a big smile on his face. It was good to see him smile. He wore a smile a lot better then a frown and tears.
