Pen Pal

-1-

I try making myself smaller as I quietly walk down the crowded hallway of my school. Clutching my books to my chest, I try to stay unnoticed so no one will bother me but I just can't get that lucky.

"Hey there, cutie." Joey aggravates, tapping the tip of my nose.

"Leave me alone." I breathe, rolling my eyes and continuing my walk to class.

"Oh c'mon." He laughs. "I'm only teasing."

"I don't like the way you tease. You're a major pain in the ass." I retort. He places his hand over his heart, as if he's actually hurt by what I said.

"Harsh." He says.

"I don't even care. Just leave me be." I walk faster to get past him and, luckily, he doesn't follow me. I walk into the classroom and sit in the very back, glad that he's out of my hair for now.

I scroll through all of the junk mail that's found it's way into my email and, one at a time, delete every one of them. I've been at this for about an hour now and I'm almost done. I have about 15 more emails left and I'll be finished.

As I open one of the last emails, I find myself staring at an ad for a pen pal website. Maybe having someone to write to won't be so bad. I could vent my feelings to them without actually having to face them in person.

I click on the link which opens up my internet browser. I wait until it loads then I scroll through some addresses and click on a random user. I grab a pen and paper to jot down the information before closing out of the website and closing my laptop.

I scribble the address down on an envelope them grab some paper to begin writing my letter. I let out a short breath then I begin writing.

Dear Harry Styles,

I found this address on a website and I was hoping that maybe we could be "pen pals." Whatever that is.

It said that you were about 19, which is about my age so maybe we can get along well.

I hope I didn't sound too idiotic

Sincerely,
Izzy

I fold the paper up, put the return address on the envelope then put the paper into the envelope. I seal the envelope before putting a stamp on it.

I get up from my seat and slip on some flip flops. I walk out of my house and out to the mailbox, where I put my letter in and raise the flag. Now, I wait.

-A/N-

There's gonna be a lot of fast forwards but it'll only be like a week or two at a time that I fast forward. Hope you're okay with that :)
