"Fuck sake," I grunt, frustrated with similar homework I had in 8th grade.

Its true, as years go by school gets harder and harder. In Junior year in 1998 Im learning what middle schoolers learn in 2017.

I decide to walk down the street to that pizza place I passed from school. The annoying kid from school is outside smoking and I laugh walking passed him, "Gross,"I know I stayed quiet while Patrick smoked but he's a good guy.

Math guy just glares at me and looks away. I walk inside and that tall guy from english is at the register. God, does that whole school work here? Damn.The whole store is empty besides English Guy and I'm sure people in the kitchen behind him."Can I get a small pizza, pepperoni only?" I ask grabbing my wallet. He nods and starts ringing it in."

You're new ain't you?" He asks quiet."Yeah? Whats it to you?" I ask handing him the credit card."W-well are you looking for a job? We- we're hiring," he shrugs while cashing me out."

Yeah right, only a freak would work here," I take my card and recipt from him."Whatever," he snears, his mood changing.

I wait by the counter for my pizza to cook. Annoying guy walks back in and goes into the kitchen. Ew, I hope smoke boy isn't cooking. I don't want cancer pizza. Patrick walks in behind me and comes up to the counter.

He starts talking to English Dude as if they're best friends, oh god will I have to deal with him to be his friend?

"Hi Liv, we keep running into each other," he says "liv?"I say sarcastically."New nick name, Anyway you've met my friends." Patrick says English Dude looks down at a boy who looks just like him. Before I could say anything a guy comes out ."Your pizzas ready bitch," the Annoying Guy walks out dropping the pizza on the counter."

"Dude what the fuc-" I glare."Ethan."

English Dude elbows him."Ethan? Dolan?"
I ask."What's it to you?" He glares at me."Oh no," I facepalm."Whats going on?" Patrick asks."I'm really sorry," I apologize to Ethan and the guy I now assume is Grayson."Just go," Grayson shrugs me off.

"I was just kidding earl-"

"Leave us alone!" Ethan yells. I grab my pizza and run out of the store.Fuck, I fucked up severely. How can I befriend them if we started on bad terms?Patrick follows me out, "What did you do?"

"What did I do? He called me a cunt!" I point inside."Why though? Did you do something? I need to know,"

"I called Ethan an idiot and Grayson  a freak, okay? I don't mean it," I lie,
"They're just words, he freaked out on a customer,"

"If you're rude to Grayson we can't be friends, I don't care what you say to Ethan but leave gray out of this, he didn't do anything wrong to you. God, you just got here? How are you making enemies already?"

He lecturing me reminds me of when I was little and broke one of my moms glasses, she lectured me and sat me in timeout.

"Okay I'm sorry," I huff looking away from him f."You should sit with us tomorrow and apologize to Grayson, James can come too. I just don't want another person to upset Gray, and I rather you have friends,"

I assumed James was mr white

"Thanks for the second chance Pat,"

"I want the bullying to stop," he nods. I look down guilty, I bullied his daughter to the point she killed me and herself."I'll see you tomorrow," I say quiet and walk to my apartment.

I sit in my bedroom next to the ouija board, "Death?"The planchette moves to yes."Can I fix what I did to Ethan and Grayson.?"I ask.

The planchette circles and moves back to yes. I nod and eat in silence.Usually I would hear Jennifer walking around the house and asking me questions occasionally.

Mom would still be in bed and Dad somewhere partying.I'm used to being alone, I'm just starting to despise it. I want to have friends over, its just none of my friends are even born yet. At this point I have to rely on their parents to be my friends.

"Welp, when ever I stop the shooting I'll be home. Just gotta hold out until April,"
