Michael's POV

I skipped class again. Even though it hasn't started yet. When your a loser like me. You don't need school.

I went outside and walked out to the trees. wow autumn looks so amazing imma take a picture. I took my phone out and clicked the camera app. I lifted the phone and faced it towards the trees.

"Can't wait to draw this" I took a step closer to the amazing scenery. Once I found a big enough tree I turned my destination. this is where I shall draw. I heard footsteps pounding against the dirt and when I turned around I was immediately slammed into. Ow!
I saw who it was. Kiana? What is she doing? I moved my hands to her arms and pulled her back. I looked down at her and noticed she was crying. What a crybaby. She cries when she's hurt she cries when she's asleep she crying right now! 3 times today. Whoever was hurting her. has some serious problems.

"What happened?"

"I-I" she said wobbly. She turned her head backwards.

"Tell me what happened to you"

"I just... I Can't" she said her voice cracking into a whisper at the end. She tries to escape my grip but I tighten it.

"Why can't you ever answer my questions?"

"Please just leave me alone" she turns her head backwards again. Almost like if she was seeing if anyone was following her. I lift a hand to her cheek and gently move her head to face me again. Once our eyes meet I drop my hand back to her arm.

"Can you just please leave me alone?" She says looking away.

" No I am stuck with you. Wherever you go I'm still there. Wherever I go you will appear Beside me, always. You can't keep walking away or escaping your problems. You'll never learn that way"

"Let go of me Michael" she says. I tighten my grip. She seemed so sad Like if she was just about to fall down and cry. I couldn't. Take it anymore I went in. I wrapped my arms around her in a hug. My hands slid through her silky brown hair. It was, soft.

"Is this making you feel better?"

No response.

All I heard was her crying she lifted her hands and hugged me back. I truly don't understand this heavy heart burning feeling inside. I hate it.

After a while I took a step back. She was smiling with only a few tears in her eyes. I watched as she wiped her tears away.

"Thank you" she said. I nodded

"Are we friends now?" I said. She smiled and said ''yes''

I turned around back to my destination. I heard no footsteps besides mine. When I turned around to see if Kiana was there, she wasn't. I immediately went back to drawing the trees. What a sight truly.

I made the outlines of the first tree on the far right. The one where the sun was hitting it perfectly. I carved in new branches to the tree and hid them under the shadows of the little leaves I calmly drew.

After a while I heard the bell chime and I closed my book. I shoved it in my binder and carried on with my day. As much as I wanted to skip class and draw. I would get into trouble again. I sort of don't want that. Again.

(The next day)

It was 7:23, Early in the morning. I got up out of my bed and drowsily made my way to my closet. I harshly opened it up and took out the first pair of cloths I spotted. After I was prepared I took a shower.

Once I got out I immediately conned my wet hair. It was better to brush my hair this way. It curved into whatever form I wanted. But today I had only sucked with a simple side dew.

I had on a black Adidas sweater that had its sign in white which I wore with blue wash pants.

I focused on my eyes in the bathroom Mirror. I know a lot of things except emotion. Everyday I study my face my eyes my entire physical appearance. Trying to find the smallest bit of emotion. The only one I know is hate. Its not my often emotion but I know what it's like to hate someone or something.

I looked down at the sink and sighed. Another blunt day.

I could smell the bacon and eggs from down stairs. And I immediately hungered for it. Craving the crunchy greasy pig meat and the soft yellow Chicken eggs.

I ran down stairs. I don't normally eat breakfast at home or with my mom and dad. But I wanted it so bad. Usually its just pancakes.

Once I was at the bottom of the stairs. I found my parents shuffling around placing cups and plates on the table. I slowly walked around to observe my parents. My mom was dark skinned and had long curly hair that she wore on a ponytail. Just remember that my parents adopted me. They don't look anything like me. As for my dad he had Brown short hair and pale skin.

I grabbed a cup and poured in some coffee. And sipped from the edges.

My parents had stopped shuffling and sat down to eat.

"So. How did you sleep?" Said my mom as she picked her food. She doesn't need to know how I slept. And why should she care. I ate my food quickly swallowing it after about 2 chews.

"Was there any homework?" She continues after my silence. Give it a rest. Does it look like I want to talk about last night. It was the first day of school, There would least likely be any homework.

I didn't respond. And I doubt I was going to talk anytime soon.

"Are you enjoying your breakfast?" My mom questioned

Give it a rest! Damn this women couldn't keep her mouth shut.

"What do you want!" I shouted. I had enough.

Everyone looked at me. What are those faces for? What were they feeling! I just want to know.

"Can you all just leave me alone?" I said. After a while I was done eating so I walked out of the room and into the kitchen to wash the dishes. After I did I speed walked up to the row of hooks that were nailed into the wall where my back bag hung. Afterwards I opened the door beside it and rushed out slamming the door behind me. My parents are so annoying.

(At school)

I pulled the keys of my car out. And opened the door while grabbing my back bag beside the seat next to me. I waited to here the door click shut and as soon as it did I began walking towards the Hugh school scenery. I walked towards The Building. (The classrooms are separated into different building's for each class) I went to the building with my locker standing by. I left my textbook here so I couldn't Do my homework. And last night I couldn't sleep because I wasn't tired how could I feel tired. Maybe when I was drowsy I felt sleepy? Once I opened the locker I took out my textbook, Spanish book And a small bag that held all my pencils inside then I put my back bag inside the locker and grabbed my side bag. After shifting around placing the books in my bag and back bag in my locker I quickly closed my locker. When I turned towards my destination I saw a same height tan skinned girl with bouncy dirty blonde hair. I'd say she looked pretty. But she smelled like she wore too much perfume. It was Kacey.

"What do you want? And if your just gonna stare at me, can you at least get out of my way?" I said calmly.

she started to giggle. Then she rose her finger up to my arm and moved it up and down.

"Your so funny!" She giggled on. What was so amusing and why was it amusing. Whatever it was. I looked towards her long finger as it went on slightly moving the sweaters material. What was she doing? I find this a little strange. I raise my elbows causing her hand to harshly slip off.

"What are you doing?" I said.

"Oh Mikey, stop acting like you don't know" she said with a pink smile on her face. I fitted my eyebrows together and thought about the nickname she gave me before I spoke again.

"I'm not acting I have no idea what you were doing... Whatever, I don't wanna know, I got some plans" I said walking around her

"Ugh, you better come back here!" She yelled.

I rolled my eyes and kept walking. What a creepy weirdo.
