The New Kid Runs A Gang

The Person I Hate Most

Note i do make weird jokes that aren't funny and this book will have certain parts that may be triggering such as violence and sexual abuse as well as abuse in general. i'm warning you now so if any of these trigger you please get off this book and read a different one because there is a lot.

This is my freshman year as a high schooler and already i have made some enemies. It's not surprising considering how much i hate people and am antisocial. I only have one friend and it's only by some miracle that she likes me even though i can be very harsh when speaking the truth. She's very chipper and happy all the time and it confuses me. My friend, her name by the way is Amelia, is very much a clingy person and talks very much. and sometimes i appreciate her talkative spirit but other times i really hate it. I was on my way to my first class when i saw this guy. he was normal looking , kinda cute but not too cute. he looked as if he was my age and not close to junior or senior year. I just continued walking until the guy stopped me where i was going. "hey do you know where baking is? the room number on my card says 701A. do you know where that is?" Not wanting to talk i just gestured with a wave of my hand to follow me. Baking just happened to be my first class that i needed to go to so i told him he could follow me to get to the class. we got into the class and he sat next to me (much to my dismay) and asked me my name. "my name is not your concern."

i didn't know why i was being mean to him but he just replied with," ok, my name is thomas by the way. nice to meet you...dude?" he said, confused because i looked like a girl but had men's clothing on. The teacher was taking roll and very slowly. "Thomas.....Alex?" i raises my hand to indicate that i was indeed there and thomas just happened to look at me.

"Alex, huh? so your a..."
realizing my name didn't give him any hints at my gender he glanced down at the desk not knowing what to say.
"i'm a boy."
he looked up at me, happy that i said something to him for once, though i don't understand why.

"your voice, it's nice. I like it."

I thought to myself you say that as if i care which i really didn't. I never really cared what someone thought about me unless it came to my parents and my friend. I looked at him and just nodded, not knowing how to respond.

"what did you think of the muffins we made?"

i look next to me and there's the boy. I look at him and glare. " I want to be left alone."  he looked at me with a sad look on his face and just nodded and walked away. I guess he took the hint. For some odd reason i couldn't stop thinking about him throughout the day and even thought about asking him to be frie- no i will not put myself through a bad friendship again. Not after what happened last time.

Thomas's POV

"I have no idea why but i think Alex hates me."
I say to my friend Amelia who i have known for years and had told my parents that they should move here for job opportunities.

"He'll get over it, sh- i mean he always does."

did she call Alex a she? but, isn't he a boy? I look at Amelia for clarification when i look up and standing outside the stairs is Alex, the boy who i knew i likes from the moment i saw him and wanted to be his friend. I don't think he liked me at all at this moment but for some reason i thought i saw him grin a little when he saw me, it was probably my imagination though. "Amelia? Do you know this guy?" I look at Amelia and she grins wide and is about to talk when Alex nods and just looks back at the stairs and goes under them. Amelia and I sat under the stairs as well to eat lunch so we just stayed.

Alex's POV

I didn't want to come home. I knew my father would be back and that would stress out my mom so i really really didn't want to be at home right now. I opened up my screen door and start looking around, seeing my mom black out drunk on the couch, a cold beer still in her hand. I go into my room and lock the door, knowing my mom would wake up soon. I turned off the sound on my phone and put headphones in and turned down the volume on those as well. I heard my mom get up and out of the couch. I then heard a knock on my door. "Alex? open the door." When i didn't open the door she lost it. "OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR RIGHT NOW" I opened up my window and jumped out of it and started running. I heard a crash and knew she broke down my door and was probably looking for me. I bumped into someone and looked up. It was a man in his mid 20's who wasn't evil looking but gave me a bad vibe.

"Where are you headed to little...."

"I'm a boy." I said this as it was a habit of mine and i didn't really think anything of it. "how old are you kid?" i looked at him and didn't respond. I knew better than that. I forgot to hide my permit though. "fourteen huh? well then let's get you home but first...." He grabbed my arm and started pushing me into the gas station and when he looked around saw no one was in the front and took me into the one stall bathroom. He threw me into the bathroom and hit my cheek. "i'm sorry for hitting you but you tried to run and i can't bring you home if you run." he grabbed the base of my shirt lifting it i started sobbing from the fact that someone i didn't trust at all had seen my bandages from binding incorrectly.  He stared until he decided to leave my chest alone. He pulled down my underwear and pants and started to unzip his own pants. I screamed, trying to kick him away but he put his leg on mine to stop me from moving. before he could do anything further, the door started opening.
