I sit alone again, waiting for some kind of dramatic turn of events to occur. At my school...some random shit always goes down. I looked around the cafeteria fiddling with the sleeves of my jumper, pulling them down to my fingertips
"Loser!" a girl screams dumping custard onto my head, silence broke in the room as everyone stopped to stare. I could feel tears welling up in my eyes. I jump up from the seat and make a dash for it, everyone in hysterics.
I barged past a bunch of people, getting to the bathroom. I was crying viciously, tears streaming down as I scrubbed the top of my ponytail. I hate this. I hate this school. I hate the people...I hate everything. I forgot to mention, this is only my second day here.
I walked out of the bathroom when the bell went. I can't ever just be anonymous, can I?! My fucking science teacher had to make me stand up in front of the class and introduce myself after twenty minutes of harsh negotiation NOT to.
I walked to my locker, twisting the combination around to gets my books. I shut it behind me, locking it slightly, the bitch who dumped custard on me walked up with an 'L' shaped with her fingers on her head "The only loser is you since the L is backwards!" I muttered, walking to my math class. I have no idea where I have to go, follow the crowd El, just try not to stand out. I made my way into the class, noticing all the people. Don't sit in the front, that's the nerd's spot, don't sit in the back, you don't want any distractions...middle.
I sat next to a guy, a chubby one too. He seemed really upset "Oh, um, I can move if you'd like?" he asked preparing to grab his things "No, it's fine!" He smiled and sat down next to me again "Oooohhh! Shane has a boyfriend!" some guy yelled out, I slumped even more into my chair if that was even remotely possible "Ignore them, they're douchebags..." I shrugged, pulling at my hair. The teacher walked in, dumping her books on the desk. You could smell the alcohol on her breath from 5 feet away "Okay, we're learning about the human body," she began drawing a person...a stick figure more like it "Um...miss? I think..." I muttered, everyone darted their heads around, smiling at the fact I pretty much called her a man "Isn't this math?" "Yes, but it's advanced math, so you nerds need to learn about this just in case one day you're lucky enough to get laid!" the guy next to me cracked a smile before writing someone on a sheet of paper. I felt something touch my hand, which made me jump a little
'Hi, my name's Shane...you are?'
I smiled to myself before grabbing a pen
'Stella, but everyone calls me El,'
"Shane," the teacher's shrill voice asked "I said 'no passing notes in class!' Give here!" he sighed before handing it to her, she had to read through it about 9 times before looking at us...and trust me, she's a slow reader! "Detention, after class, both you and El!" damn it! So much for not being noticed.
I walked into the largely spread classroom, admiring the retarded posters teacher's put up to 'inspire' children. I took a seat. Why am I the only one here? I asked myself, tapping the pen against the desk, tha's when Shane walked in "Hey again," he smiled sitting next to me "I'm sorry about landing you here..." I shrugged my shoulders in annoyance "It's alright..I'm El," he smiled taking my hand and shaking it "Shane."
Only I didn't know how this exact moment would define my life forever...
