Hey, guys. WrittenHorror here. This story will be written from multiple perspectives, but the main character, Kendall, will be the main narrator. I'll let you know what POV you're reading from. Anyways, on with the story.

[Kendall's POV]

I'm not gonna say my life sucks. In comparison to the less fortunate, I should actually be really grateful. So this isn't just a sob story about me not getting what I want. Okay? Here we go.

My name's Kendall. And... I'm gonna decide to document my experiences for the next few months. Maybe it can be entertaining? I don't know.

This story begins on a regular Wednesday morning. I'm a sophomore in high school, so obviously most of my time is spent there.

I was sitting outside the door for my first period class, AP Chemistry, and checking out a certain someone talking with her friends, when my dumbass of a best friend, Miles, came up to me.

"Hey man, what's up?" Miles says as he walks up to me.

"Ah. Not much man." I responded. We did our special handshake, but my eyes drifted back to the girl.

Miles' eyes followed mine, and then reached her. Scarlet Blue.

Scarlet wasn't exactly the most popular girl in school, or even the prettiest for that matter. I didn't really care. There was just something about her that gave me a good vibe. Not that I could ever get the confidence to talk to her.

"Checking out Scar again, huh?" Miles mocks

"I'm not checking her out, jackass." I retorted.

"Yes, you are. If you like her so much, you need to talk to her."

"I can't do that. She's friends with Rebecca, the most popular girl in school. There's no way that can go well. If I embarass myself in front of them, I've embarassed myself in front of the whole school."

"Ah. Nobody knows your name anyways. Everyone would forget you even existed."

"Gee, that makes me feel a lot better."

"Glad to help."

"Fuck you, man."

"Kinda gay, don't you think?"

"Very funny."

"I know. I'm like the next Kevin Hart or Adam Sandler."

"You're Asian."

"Name one Asian comedian you know."

I stuttered.

"Exactly." Miles said in victory.

Just then, the bell rings.

"You guys have legit every class together. If anyone has a chance, it's you." Miles says before walking away.

I shake my head, fixy backpack over my shoulder, and walk into class.

"Hey, Mr Felix" I said before sitting in my seat. Back of the class. Least noticeable. So I thought.

"Good morning, Mr Brooks." Mr Felix responded, and then got up from his seat to prepare and greet the rest of the students coming in.

Hopefully, today would go like any other.

No one would notice me.

No one could hurt me.

That's what I thought would happen. Went every single day of my life without a shred of attention from my peers. Except for Miles, of course.

Fortunately or unfortunately, I'm not sure.

But today would be the day that changed.
