Screw Human Emotions

Len's P.O.V.

Hell yeah, thank god it's finally the weekend. Every Friday, my friends and I order pizzas and play video games till the early morning. It's a time to relax and enjoy the weekend from the stress of everyday life. However, I can't fully enjoy the excitement of the weekend. Whatever is going on in my brain has refused to settle down. To calm down, I decided to take an aimless walk through the park while blasting heavy rock music through my headphones hanging around my neck. Only one side of the headphone worked so it sounded much h quieter this way. My sister took my good pair and I had to find a quick replacement. I guess keeping old headphones really is a poor thing to do.

A day without music is like a day without air. I can't make a very good analogy, but music is definitely always necessary. I breathe in the lyrics!

So that's exactly what I did. I was out walking around the park to let off some stress. Maybe it was something else? Not even I was entirely sure, but whatever it was, there was a pit at the bottom of my stomach. I'd really hoped to release some of this pent up anxiety by walking, but there was this heaviness lingering above my head. I didn't want to burden my sisters about anything going on and my girlfriend wasn't usually one to spill feelings. Too many things had piled up in my brain and I wasn't sure how to sort them all out, really. I decided it would be best by letting out the anxieties during my walk, but it fell to pieces when I caught sight of her.

Little Miss [_____]. God, she could be such a bitch when she wanted to be. The first time she rolled around, I just wanted to tease the new kid to see if she would be cool. In the end, I found out she's just a hostile chick with her guard way too high up and she seems content being a damn loner. I resorted to picking on her because why not? There's nothing much to do in this small town and she's an easy target. Not very big of me, I know, but I roll with punches. Speaking of punches, she threw a pretty mean one at me the other day. I was expecting her to be a wimp, but she actually hurt me a bit. I have the bruise to prove her strength. Not that I'd ever admit that out loud.

She was walking ahead of me, only about twenty feet away, reading while she walks. She's so friggin' weird. I mean, she reads and walks! Who in the name of hell does that? Who does she think she is, deciding to freely walk around in my territory? This park was taken over by a lesser gang and my group and I best them to hell and back, taking over the space. Considering she had a good enough hit, maybe it was time I paid her back.

Ah, the element of surprise is always a good one to use. I paused my music and decided to sneak up on her, sending her flying forward with a complimentary, "Boo!"

She screamed and flew forward, catching herself before she hit the floor. She snapped her head around and stood up,taking the book and using it to hit my arm with it.

"Hey, hey, hey, it was a joke, calm down, [_____]!" I cried, holding out my hands to defend myself. I began chuckling and then I couldn't stop laughing at her expression. Once she saw me, her eyes changed from shock to nothing but pure anger and that's when I noticed the shift in her.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" she shouted, taking her book and tucking it under her arm, "I am sick of you being annoying and I swear, it's like you don't have a single thought that goes through your little brain! No fucking filter and I'm tired of it! Find a new kid to pick on because I'm done being your toy, Kagamine. I swear, you come at me again and I'll rip your head off!"

I was stunned at her outburst and sized her up.

"Yeah, keep telling yourself that, [_____]! Who do you think you are, walkin' 'round my territory and slugging me without paying the price, eh? You're lucky I'm letting you off with a goddamn warning, 'cause I'm no bitch when it comes to hitting a girl!"

She rolled her eyes and stormed off, the cherry on the cake was her flipping the bird at me. I huffed and even though she couldn't see me, I flipped the bird back at her. The audacity of this girl, ugh! I kicked at a rock nearby and heard it hit a nearby tree stump.

Could you ever believe she's Yuuma's cousin? He's a badass. I've seen him around school and town and I know he's a tough dude. Hes a member of an underground fight club in town where he's the undefeated champion and that takes a lot of guts. We have some acquaintances in common and on the occasion when we would hang out, I've overheard him talking about his victories and the scars he's gotten from the fights. Not to mention the betting money he's aquired. But on the rare occasion, he'll talk shit about [_____]. I wasn't ever really in the middle of these conversations, but I had overheard enough to know what kind of target she is. [_____]'s asocial and always locks herself up in her room, she takes way too much literally and is overall a shut-in. Sounds depressing if you ask me. So much for a calming walk now, screw this. I'm pissed and I'm late for picking up the pizzas for the group. Miki's gonna be mad.

Your P.O.V.

On my way home, the tears pricked my eyes while I laughed uncontrollably, shaking with mixed emotions racing through my head. I'm not one to consider myself a fighter, but there's a point where a person takes too much and snaps. The influx of emotions and adrenaline that follow are just wild. Happiness, anxiety, hatred, sadness, excitement: everything just rushes in, filling your fingertips and hits all at once.

I got far enough from the park and found the river leading home. Upstream is home and the sun's out enough to still be home in time. I sat on the embankment of the river watching the green waters flow lazily.

I let out an excited scream, tears streaming down my face. Absolutely cathartic. Standing up for myself was something wholeheartedly powerful and I realized that this was a major step for me. I'd never felt so good in my life. I compsed myself and headed on home. My aunt greeted me with a smile and I just headed on up to my room.

All semblance of power I previously had exited my body all at once. The smile I wore disintegrated when I heard Yuuma and his friend laughing in his room. I scurried to my room and dropped my book on my desk.

Human emotions suck.
